State Convention.

The spirit it seems has moved the Grand Sa-
chem-the great embo liment and double dis
titled quintessence of Democracy-he who can
bolt the caucus nominee and still not be a
boltcr-has opened his mouth ana graciously
condescended to call convention, and give
the Democracy OF California an opportunity
to assemble in State Convention for the pur-
pose of nominating candidates for Congress-
Whether the adhereats Of the great emDodi-
ment have succeeded in '-laying the pipes SO
as to force their bargain and sale and white
horse candidates upon the people, remains to
be seen. The idea that the choice Of the peo-
pie would naturally fall upon those who have
fuppor;ed him in his reasonable scheme, is as
preposterous as is the idea of their election
should they succeed in obtaining the uomina
ton. The Democracy, to succeed in the ap-
preaching election, must have candidates
for whose success the Democracy can labor
without advancing the interests Of a faction
they condemn. Unless they can do this, they
will not make the necessary effort, and the
election VIII be lost by default.
By reference to the notice ut the head of
this column, it will be seen the Convention is
called to meet at Sacramento City on the l8tn
of July next. This will render the Congress
sional canvass month shorter than usual :;
but the chairman Of the State Committee
may have very justly thought that his candi-
dates would run the better fer being known
the less, and consequently put off calling q
convention until public opinion forced him to
discharge the duty attached to tie position
assigned him, or resign that position. Bu,
the State Convention has been called. and
thereat shall all things be made equal
