Shall wo have a primary elec

ones that we want to serve the peo

office in the county over to tho re

our offices.?
There is not a democrat in the
county, but was better pleased,
though he may not have gotten
his first choice, than he would have
been, to have had every office in
the county filled by republicans.
The republicans say, (as docs
minority parties at all times) let ev
ery man run independently, and
have no politics in county elections,
but mark you,! while they insist
upon that line of action, they hold
their secret conventions, and select
their strongest men to make the J
race; and they never run but one
candidate for the
same office,

How many republicans, or inde

call them) run for the same office
two years ago.? There was but
one, and he was the strongest
man in the republican party in
the county, and had full assurance tin y arc democrats, let them pro
that he would have no opposition claim it from every house-top, if
by any other republican running
for the same office; hence, we say,
they were carefully selected by j
private caucus or convention, to
.. !
beat, if they could, the democratic
candidates.
There was not a democratic can
didate in the field, who received
any republican votes; every repub
lican voter in the county support
ed the independent candidates. It
resolved iteclf into thie;-evcry
democrat has his preference, his j
first choice is the one he considers j tuncs ,or what wc conceive to be

the best man in the county for cet them in politics, as we do in
the place; his second choice is the tusincBS'in an ren and houcst

that a majority of the democrats
get their first choice, and tho mi
nority of them voting at a prima
ry to get their second choice, than
for none of them tocct anv choice I
t v
at all. It is democratic, and it is
right, to submit to majorities, and
wc take it that there is not a good
democrat living, who had not
rather submit to the wishes of a
majority of his brother democrats,
than to surrender all over to the
enemy the republican party.
We know there has been some
objection among democrats in the
county, as to the way the prima
ries have been conducted, nnd to
this we will say, that the regula
tion of the primaries are entirely
in the hands of the democrats, and
they can certainly throw the re
strictions abound them, that will
make them equally fair to every
democratic candidate in the race.
There are no reasons why the
domocratic family of old Lawrence,
can not work together harmoni
ously, if we can not, to whom, or
to what party can wclook for com
fort.? Certainly not to the republi
can party. It is plain that we must
keep up our democratic organiza
tions, or wc will loose every office
in the county. If we orgnnie, and
arc then defeate d, wc will know
that it was the enemy, and
not our own men that dtfated us.
The republicans arc organized,
apd axe ' tickled in their slccvj'
how they expect to win with their
independet candidates.
Shall wo meet them in an open
combat, or shall we "sulk in the
camp" and surrender our rights in
to thoir hands.?
We say organize, hold primaries,
and victory is ours; but should
this not lead us to victory, defeat
will be honorable.
The best democrat in the coun
ty, and the most popular man may
offer himself as a candidate before
the people without drawing the
party lines himself, and when the
election is over, he may put all the
republican ballots that has been
' cast for him, into his eye, and they
would not obstruct the sight

Wc do not want to elect tha
kind of men; we want it so arran-'
gcd that our men may know just
where to look for their votes. If
they be republicans, let them look
to that party for stipport. This '
line of action keeps men honest,

We have as many friends in a
, . i i i
'
republicans, as we have who arej
democrats, and the way to keep
that friendship, is to bc honest
with them, and tell them that we
differ with them politically, and
; that we expect to strike, at all
ocrats, expect to fight upon the
same line.
When this is done, wc have bet
ter mcn) wc "avc honest politicians,
"nd wc can still be social and bus-
inc6s friends. Let them know that '
democracy is a principle, and not a
passion.
The young democrats of the coun
try have been taught by their
dcmcratic fathers, that there are
no honest republican politicians,
and on the other hand, republican
fathers have instilled into the
minds of their sons, that there are
no honest democratic politicians;
all of which, is wrong, and should
no longer be encouraged; for republi
cans are fighting for a principle
that they think is right, and the
democrats are doing the same; so
politics rightly conducted, is a
principle, and upon that principle,
every democrat should stand, and
make his fight. There is no more
sectional strife among sensible
men; the north and the south are
blended together in a way that sec
tional strife can no longer lurk in
thelosom of good mcn. Democ
racy with usis a principle as dearas
life itself, and for that principle,
wc wjll ever bc found Latticing in
an open and frank way.
