' To do as these politicians Duroose in nndemoerstlc, is an utraaeons shame and ought not to be submitted to. Judge Winston's friends In his own county of Bertie ought to demand that h be treated fairly, that an honest and p-rfectly fair and democratic primary be held in bis district. It this be granted by the executive committee of the 2d judi cial district we believe Winston would be overwhelmingly elected. ' If the executive committee should be so undemocratic as to decline to settle the contest ln-a primary, and the "packed" convention should falsely declare some one else to be tbe choice of the Demo. crate o! that distct for the place, Thb Fwca Parss thinks the matter should be foiiglii out at the State convention and thist efforts should be made there to have the State convention decline to rat ify tbe choice of a few politicians only and order the judicial convention (under the party primary law) to hold a pri mary to settle tie matter as to who Is tbe eh iJce of the White people. ' It Is not right either that the conntles f Halifax', Northampton and Edirecombe with fewer white Democratic voters than Lenoir and some other counties In the second congressional and also the second judicial district, have how about three Vnies as many votes In . tbe Democratic convention above named. This condl t on eannot continue. The whita people of these districts and of the state will not submit to It for lonsr. It Is well enough for the political leaders of those couutlesto reallxe that they are now retitiiigon very dangerous around and that It would be unwlre for them to per- alrt In their attempt to override the irhee of the people. The great leaders (and thev are (treat some of 1 hem) in ' tbe above named counties may say that Democrats of other portions of the state have nothlnar to do with the matter of this judgeship nomination, but this Is an error, as every e tt'- all over tbe state is tit?rst3d In t'.e matter' of judicial nominations, and more particularly as tbe judge ao to an i I tftlrf nnnrta a.11 rtvar tt.m n ... w.h - . - . wv w. - w.vi ,w. main 0 re every Democrat a fair chance.
