'I’he executive committees of (illy Georgia counties have formal ly declared in favor of the same rules that have heretofore govern ed State primaries, in so far as they are related to the qualiliea- tions of voters. Two county com mittees have declared for new rules, requiring pledges of “future loyalty;’’ while the rump commit tee of Fulton county has also ex pressed a preference for some strange and hitherto unknown rules.

BRADLEY & BANKS 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 Our Display of Spring Clothing 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.
