The Macon Telegraph keeps tip
its prating about the “integrity of
the Hemoeratie party” and asserts
that it will defend the party,at the
cost of its own precious life, from
the enemies who are bent upon its
destruction. If tile Democratic
party ever had a more hurtful
enemy in Georgia than the Tele
graph. it w as because that enemy
was more inllueiitial and powerful
than that newspaper. The Tele
graph was a lip-snorting newspa
per asset of the mongrel aggrega
tion of gold-bugs that followed
Palmer and Huekner to defeat and
disgrace. In those days the Tele
graph exerted its powers to the
limit in the effort to wreck the
Democratic party. Now it poses
its the party’s good angel. How
ever, so long as the Telegraph’s
name and fame rests chietly upon
the fact that it is an apologist for
the railroad and liquor interests of
1 the State, the people will be slow
to trust the Democratic party’s in
terests to the immaculate guardian
ship of the Macon Telegraph.
Committee, which, it is rumored '
will be called together about tl c
middle of April. Giiairinun You-
mans is ill at his home in Dawson
and. as tar as is known, has not
yet communicated to members of
the Committee his intentions in re- !
gurd to calling the Committee to '
gethcr. Secretary Goldsmith, if
Atlanta, says he is unable to name
a probable date for the meeting of
the ('oniiuitiee.
'flu* Dawson News, published in
Chairman Yoeinuu’s home town,
staled last week that Mr. You-
man’s had declared he had not |
determined upon a date for the
< ’onunittee meeting. According to !
the News, Mr. Yoeman’s said he
was “waiting”—but did not say'
why he was waiting, or what or
whom he was waiting for.
The most important matter the j
Committee will be called upon to
decide at its next meeting, will be
the character of voting qualifica
tions for the primary. Radical!
changes in the rules are anticipated
in some quarters; but the News
does not believe the Committee
will disregard the wishes of a vast
majority of the Democrats of Geor
gia by prescribing new and strange
qualifications for voting in the
primary.
The rules governing the primar
ies of 1900, 1510“ and 15(04 are

all
that can la* desired by any honest
Democrat. That paragraph of the
VOTING QUALIFICATIONS.
Political interest just now is cen
tered in the prospective meeting
, of the State Democratic Executive
rules relating to suffrage qualifica
tions is as follows:
“All qualified white voters,with
out regard to past political aftilia
tions, who desire to align them-
seives with the Democratic party, j
and who will, upon their right to!
participate in the primary being!
challenged, agree to support the
nominees of said primary, are.
qualified to vote therein, and are
invited to do the same.”
The News trusts the Committee |
will re affirm the above quoted;
declaration. The Democratic mass
es will approve such action as cer
tainly as a large majority of Demo
cratic voters will emphatically con
demn any radical departure from
the conservative declarations
1900, 1902 and 1904.
