From the Raleigh Standard.
Giving uD the Contest.

| The Greensborough Patriot is out, in most de.
cided terms, against the Resolution of the late
Wing Convention IN regard to Convention to
amend the Constitution. 1t speaks of this Reso-
solution as "neher MANLY nor WISE, but
| ungenerous and RIDICULOUS" 1t then copies
! the Resolution and adds:
GAS much as TO say We believe the people
| desire their Constitution changed-we therefore
recommend that they assemble in Convention for
such purpose--but that they be not permitted to
change it in certain particulars which we point
out Mo matter whether they desire change in
these particulars not recommend that such
change be not allowed!
We can never, with our republican notions oil
popular rights, swallow such logic as this. And
we do not believe the thirty members OF the
Legislature who put forth the Address Of 81, and
the thousands who approved the same, enjoy any
more capacous accommodating powers of de.
gluttion than ourselves.
We are willing to trust the people with the ar.
| ranging Of their own Consltuton-nay, willing
is too tame word-we would place in the hands
of the honest freemen of North Carolina, in Con.
vention assembled, open, free and unrestricted,
all our political rights with the fullest confidence
that they would be sacredly preserved and re-.
spected. Still, such is respect for time hon.
ored usage. and our wish to present at this Juno.
ture of affairs united front on the principle of
federal population, that we do not desire Con-
veniion on other terms than the federal basis
Our Wing friends at the late Raleigh Convention,
it appears, could not say much; and the lead
ers Of opinion in the Democratic party habituay
laugh at and derde The idea Of such confidence
in the people Of the Stase."
The Patriot says further:
s." This same resolution forms a crooked and
unsound plank in the platform. IL IS Just such a.
one as has already uroa0n taoo Of our candidates
tor Governor. We do not intend to be accessory
to the setting Of another such a trap. Self re.
spect-respect to the opinions of thousands OF
western citizens-our duty public journalists,
our deliberate judgment and Of the experience of
the Wing party Of tie State IN trOo disastrous
campaigns.
We do not believe, and never have believed,
that the plain proposition of " free suffrage'' can
be successfully met in O gubernatoral canvass IN
any other way than by plain proposition for
a free Convention"
This looks like giving up the contest.
The Patriot concludes its observations as fol.
lows:
"As to Gen. Dockery, we know him to he
sound and sterling Whg-able and courageous
IN defence OF his princIpes-entertaining an un
affected sympathy with the common people OF the
country. AS between him and any regular rep.
resentatlve OF the Locofoco party as a candidate.
we could not hesitate in choice. As rule

duty, between opposing interests and candidates.

the greater good, which ever way you choose to
phrase it"

For the Democrat,

Mr.. EDITOR AS the time is now near at
hand when we will be called upon to select our
Representatives in the next General Assembly OF
our State; allow me to suggest through the COL
nmns Of our paper, the name Of our very worthy
and public spirited citizen, w. w. ELMs, Esq, a
gentleman in every respect qualified 10 represent
The people Of {" old MeckIenburg."
know of no one in our community who has
higher claims to such distinction, aside from his
remarkable public spirit and enterprise is inaited
the suavity and iberaity of the gentleman, and
will not his many high qualifications ensure him
Senatorial seat in our next Legislature by the
almost undivided support of his fellow citizens?
"MECKLENBURG."
The western Democrat. [volume] (Charlotte, N.C.) 1852-1870, 1854-03-31

FRIDAY MORNING, MAR. 81, 1854.

6T We give place to-day TO MeckIenburg,"
recommending our townsman, W. w. ELMs, Esq,
as the Democratic candidate for Senator. Il does
not become US to express a preference, endea.
vor in any way 10 influence the selection. We
advocate the claims Of none,-we 90 for princ.
pies, and in order TO carry out those principles
we should organize. This is the first time Meek.
Ienburg has voted for candidates for the Legisa-
ture since she has ceased 10 &C: with sister
county of Union. This summer a pitched battle
will have to be fought-the Wings ever ready to
seize the vantage ground, will bring out their
strongest men and every inch OF ground will be
warmly contested. 1t is time then were pre-.
pairing for the campaign. Let each Captains beat
hold its meeting and appoint delegates TO Con.
vention to be held here, at some time to be agreed
upon, to make nominations. We endorse every
word " Mecklenburg" has sand OF the quaIhca-
cations OF Mr.. ELMs, and we believe 1t he is the
nominee that he will sweep the County by an i'm.
mense majority. II is important that we should
have out our strongest men,-not that there is
any danger of defeat, but on account o! the
bearing they may have upon the Governors elec-
lion. We want working men too, in the next
Legislature. The next session will be an import
an; one, not only because Federal officers will
have to be elected, but questions of vital interest
10 our town and State will be before it. We want
a practical, energetic. intelligent man in the Sen
ate to attend to our interest and we know of no
one " no understands them better, more able
to protect and forward them, than Mr.. Films.
