The time suggested by the Democratic State
Central Committee for holding the State Convention,
is heartily approved by sll of the Democracy Of
Wilson. Every county il the State should be repre-
scented on that OCCASION by delegates regularly ap
pointed by the people.
We think that the LIST Monday in January is too
much crowded by the practical business interest of
the people, to admit of holding the primary meetings
on that day. These meetings should not be merely
formal ceremonies but should receive the serious
consideration of all men. who take an interest in
public affairs,
We suggest the 1st Monday of February as q
proper day, for primary meeting of the Democracy
in Wilson county. WILSON DEMOCRATS.
