The Citizens Convention.

The Winnsboro' lieuS, which does not see,
what is very plain to US, how Federal poll
tics are to be kept out of the fall canvass,
is also in doubt as to the composition OF the
Citizens Convention to be held in June next.
1t says:
1--WE suppose that colored men are desired
to attend the Anti-Radical Convention called to
meet June 18th. If so, those who have 1t in
hand would do well to make the invitation
clearly understood on this point"
If oar contemporary will read the resolu-
tions adopted by the Press Conference, it will
find therein an answer to its question. The
PEOPLE of the State opposed to Radicalism
'tand in favor of good and honest govern
s'ment," are invited to meet in convention,
and we need not remind our Winnsboro'
neighbor that there are both whites and
blacks in South Carolina. The constituent
body of the convention is the People OF the
State, without regard to race, color or ma
tional political standing. All the citizens OF
bad government and desire to obtain on able
and honest administration, are invited to
come together and nominate State officers,
whose election shall save the State from an
other long period of extravagance and mis-
rule.
Whether there will, or will not be, colored
men in the Convention, depends upon the
action of the primary meetings. These meet
iDgs will consist of both whites and blacks,
and the coiorei people must decide whether
they will be best represented by men of their
own color For our own part, we hope that
the coiored people will be represented, not
by white delegates, but by respectable and
intelligent colored men.
