IS THE PRIMARY IN DANGER?
The Roanoko Times says:
'If wo are to Judge from tho prevailing
tenor of polltlcnl gossip now going the
rouns of the State, It Is the present pur?
pose of tbo original antl-prlmiiry ele?
ment Int the Democratic party to insist
upon the retention of tho ?riva V?ce plan
of voting?not because convinced of Its
merit, but In order, through Its continu?
ation, to render tho general primary
Bclieme obnoxious to the masses. In other
?words, being opposed to tho primary ns
such, they will exert themselves to the
?end that the people shall not enjoy tbe
?benefit of Its fair experiment. That's
ebout. the si-e of It, and lt ?a a species
of political sharp practico wblch. If we*
?mistake not, a large majority of the
Democratic voters of the State nro in
?o mood to contemplate with patience
or resignation."
There can be no doubt ln tho mind of
?any man who has watched tho progress
of the fall campaign ln Virginia tint
efforts have been made In various parts
of tho State either to en-ndo tho pri?
mary plan or to maka lt unpopular, and
-this Is a matter wblch demanda tbe se?
rious consideration of the Democratic
masses. Thore Is but one fair way, as
things go, to get at the true sentiment
of the people on any question and thnt
Is by ballot. In mass meetings tbero
are ln any heated contest excitement and
confusion, to say tho least, and it Is al?
most Impossible to make such a meet?
ing a deliberative body. Without m?an
Ing to use the term offensively an ex?
cited mass meeting Is a mob, and mob
rule (s never safe. Moreover lt is always
possible and usually practicable in close
contests for one faction or the othor
to manipulate a mass meeting ln such a
way as to defeat tho will of tho ma?
jority. Sometimes Insufficient notice Is
given; sometimes meetings are held at
Inconvenient timos or places; sometimes
snap judgment Is taken, ond tho whole
system has fallen Into such disrepute
that many ?roters refuse to attend. Some?
times, indeed, meetings aro so riotous
that they are actually dangerous, aud
peaceable citizens aro unwilling to par?
ticipate, Tlie difference between tlie
average mass meeting und a primary
election Is the difference between confu?
sion, and order, the difference between
mobocracy and Democracy. In a mass
meeting individuals aro by no moans al?
ways on the samo footing. That party
Jn tho mass meeting which happens to be
organized, and usually thero is an or?
ganized body ln a mass meeting, is very
apt to carry things its own way and loo
often regardless of th0 sentiment of the
community. Such a method fosters and
encourages uiltiortty rule and ring rule
end tends to briug party methods into dls
reput. But In a primary election each and
every voter stands on precisely the same
footing, each man's voice Is as strong
as any other man's 'voice, eacli and every
vote counts the same, provldeel the elec?
tion Is fairly conducted und an honest
return made. The primary election is the
only weapon ln the hands of the people
with which successfully to fight ring
rulo, and If the people of Virginia lay
that weapon asido they lay aside their
only defense and put their pnrty affair?
nnd their political interests ln the hands

MORGAN'S ADDRESS.
The Alabama Legislature Is one of
those legislatures thnt ndhere to the
custom of assembling Its two branches
In Joint session from time to tt'mo to
listen to the views of the State's Senators
in Congress. Tho Hon. John Tyler Mor?
gan?"Alabama's grnnd old mnn"?ono
tiny last week nddressed It on such nn
occasion. Ilo spoke one hour and forty
five minutes, and wns beard by a great
crowd, nnd received Its closest attention.
In addition to tbo telegraphic matter
on this Eiibjoct, which wo have pub?
lished nlrendy. It Is Interesting to note ?
thnt tho Benntor said that sfneo Ala?
bama's new Slate Constitution liad been
Adopted there hnR been less friction be?
tween tho State and national govern?
ments than at any* other timo within his
knowledge?a period of seventy years.
And he expressed (he opinion that the
debates In tho next Congress would recon?
cile nil factions or (he Democratic party,
nnd after the party hnd gotten togother
ho believed they would eloct the next
President. Who that man should bo Mr.
Morgan said was not a matter of groat
consideration, but "ho must bo an hon?
est man nnd a man to represent tlio coun?
try."
Mr. Morgan dwelt at great length and
with much eloquence upon the richness
of Alabama 1?1 mineral and forost re?
sources, and he spoke, also, of the fer?
tility of her cotton fields. After a whllo
ho said, "Wo shall have learned how to
get nlong without tho negro, as well as
what to do with the negro."
This was said In connection with a
statement ho made that the opulence
of the Stato in woods and minorais
would bring to It lnbor which coukl bo
used cither In nifties, or In tho woods, or
In the cotton fields. He thought thero
wns very little hope for the operatives
in the Alabama cotton mills. "They are,"
he said, "a class by themselves. It is
;?. form of bondage."
A considerable portion of Mr. Mor?
gan's address was, of course, devoted to
the Isthmian canal uuestion. This Is the
great problem of the age, he said. He
thought tho canal could be built, and
with a saving of twenty-five per cent,
of the money appropriated by tho act of
Congress. He charged that the railroads,
or some of them, were banded together
to defeat canai legislation, in order to
control transportation across this hemis?
phere.
Mr. Morgan regarded It as tho duty ??
the President to secure the Nicaraguan
route for tho cnnal and cause the canal
to bo constructed. He believed the Presi?
dent was riot reckless enough to violate
the plain direction of Congress, and he
did not attribute to him an intention
to do ?0.
The Senator further said he had re?
cently placed In the hands of the Presi?
dent certain Information which he was
not at liberty to disclose, which proved
that the proposition to unite with Co?
lombia In a treaty, such as had boon
proposed, was "reckless and dangerous."
He regarded It as a providential act that
tho Colombian people had been led to
reject the treaty.
Mr. Morgan ls now In his eightieth
year, having been born at Athens, Tenn.,
June 20th, 382-1. Ho was a colonel and
afterwards a brigadier-general ih tbe
Confederate nrmy, and was for a timo
on duty with the Army of Northern
Virginia. The past summer he spent In
the mountains of this State. He Is said
to bo Iti remarkably fine health.
Some months ago Mr. Morgan was
twitted a good deal about his prodigi?
ously long speeches in tho Senate against
tho Panama canal scheme, out the Joke
Is 0:1 the other sido now, Colombia hav?
ing rejected that treaty! Mr. Morgan's
senatorial term expires March 3d, 1307.
SMALL FA RAIS.
A Georgia farmer raises his ?volco In
protest against a recent suggestion made
by a correspondent of the Atlanta Con?
stitution for controlling farm labor In
that State, which h0 think? would luad
to practical serfdom. Ho says that
Georgia has made rapid progress since*
the cB-ll war from the plantation system
of farming toward the bolter system of
small farms, and that it would bo a
calamity now to return to the old plan.
In tho days of sl.eve.-ry It was a Himple
proposition for tho owner of "brond
acres" to curry on hi? farming operations
on an extensive scale, for thou he hnd
a sure supply of labor, and as many
hands as wero nocessury to till tin- soil.
Bui tho situation Is now complotely
changed. It Is very difficult In most boo.

That Is the law of tlio State of Vir?
ginia, and It Is backed up by public sen?
timent. It means thnt the people of this
Stato do not Intend that their odloors
of government shall be corrupted or cor?
ruptly tampered With by outsiders. It
menus that the people of this State are
as much opposed to bribe-giving ns they
nro to bribe-taking, nnd that thoy put
