The delegation is larger and
composed Of a better class of the
editorial fraternity than last year,
and nearly all the papers in the
State are either represented in
person or by proxies.
Yesterdays session was spent
IN organization and in preliminary
business. In the evening quite an
discussion arose upon a
motion to appoint a committee to
draft resolutions expressive of the
sense of the Convention upon the
line OF policy to be adopted by the
Democratic papers in the State
during the coming political can
vass, upon the point that no politi-
cal question could be discussed or
introduced during the session of
the Convention, from the fact that
politics was not allowable to a Press
Convention, that the meeting was
for a different purpose, and that it
was at variance with the objects
OF the Association to give TO its
meetings a political character, and
that the harmony Of the Conven-
ton should not be disturbed by
such discussion, but that the mem
b rs of the Press might discuss in
caucus, outside of the legitimate
Convention, any political measure.
The leadiny opposers of the mo.
tion were. Col. Kinloch Falconcr,
Col. p. X. Mayors, Capt. Il. M.
Brown, Z. ". Upsh,w, Col. j..
Signiago, Col. Money, Of Car
rollton, Col. w. II. McCardle. J..
l. Power, and your writer and
others for the motion.
The convention finally voted
down the motion.
