Miss Saxon left Augusta the first of October to study under William C. Carl, one of the foremost organists and teachers in the world. From the first the famous musician has been ex tremely complimentary to Miss Saxon, and has written the most appreciative letters to her former teacher.

Since then I have j heard a great deal of remark* coa jeerning thet committee, that were rot good, but 1 can nay they act honorably and bonestly. 1 am glad I stand with | that committee. "On on* occasion some on* said thn* the reason they would not accept a j white primary was because In a white primary there was an underlying M-lieme that would materialize when the whit* primary did. At the next meeting of the committee I asked If any achcme waa underlying the prl- | | m ary and all eaid that If such was ao they were rtady to foraake the com l mltta*.

"We wanted fair pclllica. We dc , sired them. We wanted a fair deal anil we wanted It because it waa to the interest of the white peonle. I am glad I am a white man and associate with these people because they favor a white man's primary. “What do our opponents say about the white primary? They say thi.: It would debar the vote of al least 3'si white people. The idea! Three hun dred men, 21 years of age, free born, wruld to debarred from voting. Myl My! What an excuse! Such Bn ex cuse! The like of it has never bean beard of before. •-Equal Right*” Etc. “One distinguished gentleman on the opposite side said certain white men would be debarred if the primary was accepted, from voting. “No, sir. Every white man In tbe werd would be privileged to vote. Again, ‘equal rights to all, and special privileges to none,’ they say. My! My! r believe In equal rights to all, but I when it Is the sceial equality with the {colored man I am out. If he has a right let him vote when the proper time comes, but the white primary would cot debnr him from voting. “If some of those against u whit • primary had read a certain editorial In a Wilmington, N.
