While these distrt sses seem tn thicSen.
there is ths same incense offered to the

STANTON, Aug. 90, 1916.
Dear Sir,
AS you may have desire to know
something of the, Convention, which met
Yesterday at this plac, nave annexed a.
list of the Counties and Mem ers who at
tended. 1t is difficult to say what they
will do. Two specific propositions have
been brought forward one by Gen. Jack
son, for General Convention. to come
immediately from the people, without the
sanction IF the Leglslature-the other, by
Mr.. II. :. @. Tucker, TO address the Lee
gis;a'ure to call a Convention and the
advocates of each measure, 50 far as they
have yet appeared, seem pretty EQUAL. =
One member Gen. Blackburn has ex
pressed his disaYprobation Of Convention
at all /; believing that representation might
be equalized in the Senate, without resort
ing to this extreme--and that the people
at large would be satisfied with this change.
Yesterday they did nothing but appoint
their chairman Gen. Breckenridge. clerk,
door keepers, &c. To day thsre has been
some ?leasanr, and, think. not Anedifying
speaking. No COME -ture can be made as
to the time they will sit; tho think at
least fcr this week.
