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 sion to their decree e are for ‘‘fair methods,” but when the peo¬ ple speak there should be no kick¬ ing by tbe candidates. —Elberton Star.

H is death was, no doubt, caused by appoplexy, He was a good citizen, leaves a large family and will be very greatly missed. The 6udden death created a panic in the court room.

"Otsf hair Is honorable”—so runs a trite proverb that is often flippantly quoted—bn* there are few Women who do not regard with at least aoxue little regret tbe fading and changing of onoe bright and glossy tresses. Provided there is no hereditary tendency to pre¬ mature greynees, it is quite possible to keep the hair unchanged past mature is life. Tbe present style of hairdressing most inimical ton healthy state of the hair. All the natural oil, which is so sential to its nourishment and requisite 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 tbe ground of protest traveled so often before?
