The State Convention.

The Democracy of Louisiana will soon
! begin to hold their primary meetings
for the purpose Of electing delegates to
represent them in the State Convention,
which is to I'VE in this city On the
Fourth Wednesday Of May. We have
had a number of plans suggested which
will enable the people to have a fair and
| full voice in that body. One plan has
been recommended to the voters OF the
| Third Judicial District, the good policy
of which we most honestly doubt.
1t is proposed that a box be placed at
each precinct on the day Of election for
Associate Justice, in order that the vo-
tiers NAV ballot for their choice Of dele
gates to the State and Congressional
Conventions at the same time they vote
for the Associate Justice. The adoption
of this suggestion, it will readily be
seen. gives every one, regardless Of ms
pc2itics, a voice in the selection OF dele
gates to a strictly party convention. 1t
is true, lone but Democrats would be
expected to thus ballot for delegates;
but could the vote by any possibility be
confined to men of our W party! We
think not.
The masses of the Democracy should
certainly have their views and their
preferences expressed through the Con
~yention We see no difficulty in arriv-
ing atthat end by pursuing the system
adopted in many of the parishes in 1857
for electing delegates. We tried it in
East Baton Rouge in making our local
nominations, and it was tried III ether
parishes with equal success and salts
faction. Let the Democratic Parish
Committees issue their calls for Demo
cratic Ward meetings, specifying q day
for a meeting to be held in every Ward
Of the parish, to elect the number OF
delegates the Ward is entitled to on the
basis adopted; these delegates to repre-
sent their Wards in the Parish Conven
ton afterwards to be held for the pur'
pose Of choosing the parish representa-
tives to the State and CongrcssionaI
Conventions. The Democracy of the
whole State by this means will have 6
direct vote and voice in the selection @
candidates. The delegates will come
directly from the masses themselves
will understand their wishes and endea
vor to enforce them. General mas
meetings are cumbersome, noisy, confu
sed, disordcrly and unwieldy in them
selves; a general meeting OF Ward del
egates, formed into a parish convention
being fewer in number, and the delega
ties having already received their II
structions how and for whom to vote, ]
iust the reverse. Order and decorur
prevail, harmony is preserved, and th
proceedings deliberate, upright and 81
tisfactory. We therefore recommen
!, this plan to the Democracy Of the Stat
as one admitting Of less abuse, aud 81,
ing 10 the people a faircr expression
! their conventions than any other tia
has been advocated.
III holding their primary meetings, W
trust the Democrats will permit no par
J icipation in their affairs by political O
) ponents. Let us choose our W cand
dates, in our own way, and those WI
are sincerely DESTROYS Of acting with U
will cheerfully vote for them.-Batt
Rouge Adrocate.
