Tucker, secretary of the Harding-Parker Republican club, is circulat ing a reprint of a section of the' res olutions -dealing with local primaries and elections, acoompanied by explana tory resolutions drawn up. ' -;-t .i . The late resolutions are: ; "Whereas, This , club at . its meeting of July 26th adopted resolutions con demning the admittedly loose methods and corrupt practices permitted In the primaries and elections held in this county, which tend to undermine the political integrity of the electorate, and, :, ' ' "Whereas," W believe that such methods and practices are repugnant to the sense of right -of nine-tenths of the people of this community, without regard to political affiliations, and that an expression by some conoert of ac tion of their disapproval and resent ment will tend to . correct the evil, and, "Whereas, Such an expression and ac tion could find no better medium than that of certain local clubs and societies which represent the best thought .and standards of our civic life; pow, there fore, be it ... , "Resolved, First, That the secretary of this club be requested to ; transmit these resolutions and a copy of . those of July 26th, adopted by the -elub, so far. as thy relate to local, primaries and elections, to the ohamber of com merce, the Rotary club, the Kiwants club, the ministerial association,, , the democratie executive committee of this county,' the city council and the oounty commissioners, and the county board of elections; as, also to the .editors of The Star, Dispatch, Record and Neighbor hood News. '' ? . ; , "Second, That 'the said several or ganizations are invited to co-operate to suppress the evils mentioned, and, If meeting their approval, to appoint each a member to serve on a joint commit tee of public concern which shall take under advisement .and . initiate proper methods to abate the scandal of , these primary and election . frauds; and, if deemed by such committee advisable, to institute necessary, investigations and prosecutions to establish the responsi bility for such, conditions as alleged. ' Third, That, in making this sugges tion we disclaim any. political purpose other than disclosed; " Politically, the republican party has little hope of car rying New Hanover, county, .. whether the election are honestly conducted or not, but we represent' some 600 voters, and believe a service can be rendered by us in co-operation ' with other - as sociations which are dedicated to - the public welfare in the interest ; of po litical, morality. . .; '. . : v- "Fourth, We are actuated by the sole purpose to inaugurate a. move ment which by mora'l force will cor rect the wrongs mentioned. Similar conditions may exist everywhere .--as evil' exists everywhere, but .elsewhere as recently in Ohio, Michigan . and Pennsylvania, counteracting forces are brought forth to abate the. conditions; but here there has been none' and pub lic morality has been outraged. "Fifth, We, therefore, invite the 'said several organizations to , indorse, and co-operate in the, ends proposed that by mutual effort we may eradicate these political evils . and : protect : the sacred ness of the ballot which protection Is fundamentally essential to preserve the blessings of civil liberty under . our form of governments .--r:i."' "Sixth, The president is requested "to nominate some one as representative of this club to serve with represenUtives of the other organizations, if favorable replies are received, and this club will bear its part of the expense the joint committee' may. incur." .. - ;.
