DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION.

The Democratic County Convention met
on the 25th and nominated full ticket with
the exception of District Attorney and Sur
veyor. We are informed that widespread
dissatisfaction exists among Democrats on
account of the manner in which the CJnven-
ton was conducted, and in regard to some
Of the nominations. As our information is
derived from Democrats themselves, we pre-
sumo oar authority will not be ques
toned and as it is not our funeral, we have
no motive to misrepresent facts. Dissatis-
fed Democrats make the following objec-
tions First, that the party machinery has
been monopolized by few men who run it
as a close corporation, and with view to
benefit themselves exclusively. Second, that
no matter how much members of the party
outside of this alleged corporation may
have sacrificed for the maintenance of DEM
ocratic principles in times of past adversely
their claims are now ignored and set aside
by the policy" trimmers, who have usurped
the management of the party without -EaFT
rant or legitimate authority Third, that
the Democratic precincts were not justly
treated, inasmuch as FIVE out of the seven
men on the ticket are residents of Shasta, a
strong Republican precinct; and that only
one nominee repre- ents precint that gives
a Democratic majority, and small one at
that. Fourth, that if the policy trimmers
who placed the ticket in the field, are allowed
to fortify and strengthen themselves with
the Offices of the county, they will gain such
firm hold on the party organization as to
enable them to control its policy and dictate
its future nominations according to their
snvereign Measure.
