If Judge Lawson is correctly re¬
ported as saying that he will not re¬
gard tbe action of the democracy in
ordering primaries before the meet¬
ing of the Chicago convention, we
wisbto be understoodas condemning
his expression. We appreciate will his
in saying that he not
bear the free silver standard if the
national democracy shall declare
for sound money. He would not
be the proper leader to bear that
standard. He Gut might be loyal to
democracy, a leader should be
in complete accord with the senti¬
ment of the people he represents,
but when he says he will not abide
the action of the democracy of his
district in caliiag a convention, we
say such expressions savor of inde
pendantism. The people, as sove¬
reigns, have a right to say when
they shail hold primaries, whether
early or late, and it becomes the
duty of their servants to abide their
action. He must come before them
when they invite him or not at all.
fudge Lawson nor any other public
servant has a right to dictate to his
party when they shall assemble for
the purpose of nomination, nor how
they shall ^ nominate, and if there
shall be a free and fair expression
of their preference at the primaries,
he should bow with , loya ai submis

quoted—bn* there are few Women who

for It to retain its pristine color, is
methodically washed frizzed out in order crimped that
tbe tresses may be and
to meet the demands of fashion. Sot
curling irons burn oat the natural oil,
and this -destroys the very life of the
hair. But where is the use of going over
