From all accounts, that' Chatham bounty primary was a scandalous at- ■ fair. Sister Myrick, ot the Americas Tlmes-Recordor, calls him “Jay Peii” Morgan. ' For our tree's sake, let' us hope we will have uo more storms In Albany this year. Baltimore seems to have been sin gled out by the fire (lend to stand more than a just share of misfortune and loss. Atlanta and Savannah began scram bling for the Georgia sub-treasury even before the Georgia Bankers’ As sociation had fully deckled to request the treasury department to establish one In this state. A Maryland mob Invaded I Virginia in search ot a nogro who had com mitted the usual atrocious crime. Lynchers have no more respect for state Hues than for prison walls. Al| the defeated candidates In the Chatham county primary on Tuesday, except Hon. Pleasant Stovall, who wen^ down with the rest of the Citi zens* ticket, say that, “money did It.” Mr. Stovall says of It. “They had f he most votes.” . Savannah had one of the warmest political contests In her history on Tuesday, and did not wait for the nsh^s to cool -before the warring fac tions were at work on. the mayoralty campaign, still some distance In tiro future. If there Is a town or city In Georgia that manages to extract more veal pleasure out of a political cam paign than Savannah, the same has not been discovered. P. mi ; The Washington Post, which claims to he Independent In politics, warns 'the Democrats—the real Democrats— of the country to beware of the east ern Greeks who come Into camp bring ing William .1. Bryau as their gift to the Democratic party. According to the Post, the Bryan boom which has recently been launched Is only a ruse to head off William Randolph Hears! as a presidential candidate. The Post declares that the eastern Democrats and mugwumps who have twice de serted him. do not love Bryan or his politics any more now than they did In 1896 or 1900, and their plan is to get him nominated over Hearst, there by getting rid of the latter, and then lie down and let a Republican be elected. The Post’s reasoning is plaus ible, to say the least, and as for the eastern mugwumps, they are none to good to do the trlok. 1 A HERALD READER’S CRITICISM. We publish elsewhere on this page a letter from “A Friend and Reader of the Albany Dally Herald,", whb takes this paper to task for "maintain ing a persistent ‘bear’ attitude on cot,-- ( ton. ” Our "Friend and Reader" points to the publication of tlje "Cotton Pick ings, as furnished by Clark & Co.,’’ as something unfriendly to the staple crop of our section. We recognize the force of what this reader of The Herald writes, and can dor compels us to say that, from his standpoint, his cflttclsm Is a just one. But there Is another side and another point of view. The Herald, like , every other dally newspaper carrying a telegraphic mar ket report, has to arrange with the several market exchanges or some agency In telegraphic communication with them for the market reports and quotations. Our arrangement Is with Clark & Co., and credit Is given, either under the headlines, or In the head lines themselves — aH with the "Cot ton Pickings"—to that. Brin ot cotton future brokers for the New Tfork and New Orleans cotton letters which we publish from prominent brokers in those cities over their respective sig natures. The Associated Press,' we may hero explain, does not handle tills class of matter. It Is transmitted to the various centers of trade over leased wires — wires that, are leased for commercial and financial service only, i The "Cotton Piokings,” which have evidently been rubbing the fut of.our friend the wrong way recently, are gotten up by Clark & Co., and repre sent. them alone. The Herald pub llshes them, It Is true — but for Clark & Co., and for a fair consideration. Recently, It seems, the Clark & Co. “Cotton Pickings” have been decidedly bearish, but they have not always been so. Indeed, we have known them to bo “bearish” one day and “bulNSh' •the next. But that Is their business and not ours, and we would advise our Whlghnm friend not to take them too seriously. We don't mind saying, too, that In our opinion the style and general tone of these “Cotton Pick ings" might be improved — made less flippant, even If a mean ot consistency could not be maintained. We have treated the letter of our Whlgham reader with this much con slderatlon because It appears to us to deserve It, and In conclusion we can only express the hope that neither he nor any other reader will, after this explanation, hold The Herald respon slide for either the tone, sentiment or leaning of the “Cotton Pickings” of Clark & Co. WITHOUT EXCUSE. The use of money in a Democratic primary election Is without excuse and should not I« tolerated in Georgia. In the primary for the nomination ot county officers and members of the general assembly held In Chatham county on Tuesday, money was used openly in the purchase of votes. In the reports coming from Savannah the umount of money spent in this manner is variously estimated at from $75,000 to $100,000. The local party organization is en tirely to blame for this. Under our Democratic primary system, eaoh county organization Is sovereign and the rules and regulations for the gov ernment and regulation of the pri maries are prescribed and can he en forced by the respective county execu tive committees. The use of money, liquor and all other corrupting agen cies and influences can be prevented by any bounty executive committee, and wherever the party organization ’.s clean It will be done. Such primaries as all reports repre sent the Chatham county affair of Tuesday to have been should not he ‘derated by the state Democratic party organization, and when dele gates thus elected appear at the state convention they should not he seated. It seems to be high time for the Demo cratic party organization to take cog nizance 6f such methods as appear lo obtain In Chatham county. With the disfranchisement of the negro, through the operation of the white Democratic primary system in Georgia, there Is no longer the sem blance of excuse for corrupt methods and the purchasing of votes. When the negro was a voter the use of money in the purchase of votes had some sort of excuse on the Idea that “the end justifies the meanB,” but the white Democratic primary was Insti tuted for the purpose of eliminating the negro and getting rid of all excuse for crooked or corrupt methods'In our system of elections. That promise of Judge Richard B. Russell, made some time ago, that when elected governor of Georgia he would "carry more children Into the front yard of the -governor’s mansion than there are on all the rest of 'Peach tree street” has Just received fresh omphasls by the arrival of the elev enth little Russell. The. Judge was at Smlthvllle when he received a tele gram announcing the arrival of his youngest heir, and he Immediately left for home without making the address which he was scheduled to deliver. But he has named the boy "Lee County Russell,” and If Lee-county doesn’t go for Russell’ It will be the most un grateful and unsentimental community In Georgia. A HERALD READER Wants the "Cotton Pickings” of Clark & Co. Cut Out. Whlham, Ga., June 12, 1906. Herald Publishing Co., Albany, Ga.: Gentlemen—You have maintained for some time past such a persistent "bear" attitude on cotton that I am led to inquire why It is that you have taken such ah unfriendly position to our staple crop. Residing and pub fishing a public journal at a point in the state-so largety devoted to cotton culture, you are, of course, fully aware of the conditions attending the same, and must admit when the large outlay that the farmer yearly has to make far fertilizers and supplies Is considered, not to speak of the ever-increasing difficulties In regard to labor, that the prices he obtained during the past season were not high. Our section, you know, Is esseptlally not a grain and meat country, and therefore It Is of prime Importance, If the general prosperity Is desired, that our chief agricultural product should be sold at a figure that will yield.the producer som6 remuneration. It has always been conceded as a fact that when agriculture languishes and the farmer-does riot enjoy some degree of prosperity, every other call ing and pursuit will likewise feel the depression. Without presuming, however, for a moment to say what you should print and what not, I beg to suggest that your paper would appear much more friendly to a large and Important ele ment of our country, were you to cut out the column of “ Cotton Pickings ’’ as furnished by Clark & Co., and sub stitute something of a more friendly and unbiased nature, and to no longer surrender your space to further ad vance the present scheme and efforts to depress the cotton market, nor use your Influence, so manifestly to the prejudice of a worthy class of our fellow-citizens, and to the best inter ests of our country-at-large. , Yours' very truly, A FRIEND AND READER OF THE ALBANY DAILY HERALD.
