Our “Fair” Primary.
Sulphur Rock March 13.
Editor The Journal
Will you be so kind as to allow
me space in your most valuable
and interesting paper to express
my feelings and ask a few simple
questions? 1 know you can give
me the proper information for a
man who runs a paper knows all
things, and a few others. I some
times feel awful blue, and then 1
feel all over in spots as big as a
saddle blanket.
To know that we are going to
have one more fair and square pri
mary election is enough to make
anyone feel blue.
1 tell you Mr. Editor, there is
nothing like having the right kind
of a central committee, if you want
a fair election. Our committee
well knew that the Jeffsonian Dem
ocrats wouldn't do, so they just
pinted all Woodsonians—where
they could find them. I under
stand that there was one little
township where they couldn’t find
but two, so they just pinted a Re
publican. Our jury and deputy
are all Woodsonians. Am sorry
to say that the deputy has been
riding for ten days trying to find
two more to act as corporals. If
he should fail to find them couldn’t
you my grate us a couple up here?
Some say that they are not going
to allow any of us Pops or Repub
licans to vote; that no one will be
allowed to vote unless he was born
with a wooden button in his
mouth. Yes, we are going to
have a fail-election. They tell me
that the committee reserved the
right to fling out all townships that
go ,b iT onian.
If a jury has formed and ex
pressed its opinion don’t that dis
qualify them to sit on the case? I
understand that our jury says that
if Jeff is the nominee that they
won’t support the ticket. If that
be true, are they not disqualified?
If not, is there any thing binding
on the part of the Jeffsonians?
My understanding of the pri
maries is that it is held to ascertain
if possible, who is the strongest
man, and all who vote are honor
bound to sopportthe nominee.
I have been voting the democrat
ic ticket for 35 years and have my
first ticket to scratch. This cam
paign has been a shame and a dis
grace to the democracy of Arkan
sas, and l give it as my opinion,
that unless there is some change
we will have a Republican Gover
nor, and it might be the best thing
that could happen. It would have
a tendency to purify Democracy
and bring some of the ring leaders
to their senses—if they have any.
I am glad we have two parties,and
wish that they were more evenly
divided. Hoping you will answer
all necessary questions 1 remain
yours for good luck.

Judge n. L. Arnold’s Position.
Friends and Fellow Citizens of In
dependence CouDty:—In making this,
my announcement as a candidate to
serve you in the Lower House of the
next General Assembly, I deem it of
the first importance that you should
know my position on the question as
to whom I favor for the next gover
nor of tills great common wealth. To
any casual observer this is the all-ab
sorbing question and presents the
most vital issue submitted to the peo
ple of the State of Arkansas since the
dark days of reconstruction. It pres
ents the issue of Democratic principle
and tradition against tlie sacrifice of
the same—of progression for your
state, against retrogression—of moral
ity against immorality- of good citi
zenship against violators of the law;
on issues of the people against gamb
lers, trusts and combines, and issues
of encouraging the vicious negro to
commit outrages upon white girls
against the protection of the girls; an
issue of whether you shall have for
your governor a statesman, or a deni •
agogue.
Judge Wood stands for the formor
of all of these issues, and Governor
Davis stands for the latter. I am
therefore, by every impulse of my na
ture, against Gov. Davis. SliouId I
lie one of your choice I shall favor all
laws for the best interests of your
country at large, and shall oppose all
vicious and unwholesome legislation.
Pledging you an honest and faithful
discharge of duty, I am,
Your humble servant,
M. L. Ahnold.
