THGMASViLLE TO HAVE A *
FEDERAL BUILDING.
Thomasville, Ga.,M:ty 7.—That
< Tbomasville is to have a federal
* building soon seems assured a c
. the poatoffice appropriation bill
i carrying an amendment of $-'>().-
- 000 tor a public building at
* Tbomasville has already passed
- the Senate. Postmaster Dismuk*
, has just returned from Washing
ton and thinks there is no doubt
* about getting the building. It

* was made.

rl THE USELESS PRIMARY.
. (wider present conditions,the in
i quiry is pertinent; What, is the
use of our present primary sys
tem ?
Originally, the primary was in
tended to concentrate the strength
of the people on one candidate,
* giving the other party or parties
* no chance to take advantage of a
■ division in the Democratic vote.
But as the time passed, party
j lines were gradually obliterated,
until now Democrats, Populists,
j Republicans and members of all
other parties, indiscriminately.
' participate in the primaries call
ed by (he Democratic party, in
th** nomination of candieates for
'Congressmen, Governor and state
ami county officers, court judges, i
’ solicitors, etc.
From a party primary, the in
stitution was re-christened the j
“white’’ primary, the sole pur
, pose being, ostensibly, to elinu
, nate the negro vote. /
If, under the amended consti
tution the negro is disfranchised, j
then there can be no good rea
son advanced for the perpetuity
of the primary.
It is expensive, burdensome,
and serves no good purpose svhioh
cannot also he obtained in the
general election.
If there is danger of another
: party taking advantage of a di
. vision of the Democratic vote to
put in the man of its choice, that
party can now accomplish the
sain** end by participation in the
white primary.
As the primary no longer serves i
any good purpose, why not do j
away with it and let the general .
elections settle all our differences? ;
Why maintain un expensive in
convenience which is no longer a j
necessity?—Tifton Gazette.
