(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. ■ Ailev Paragraphs.
