CONVENTIONS AND PRIMARY
ELECTIONS.
Editors OfMe Mclrs -:

Editors ofthe NctUs:
There is a suggestion in
the Abingdon Vrginidn, OF the 18th
inst, which demands a fair and can
did consideration at the hands of the
people. 1t is in relation TO the selec-
ton of suitable candidates for the
next House of Delegates, in this coun-
ty.
The Editors of the Tirginida say.
there is deep seated prejudice against
the old fashioned plan of a county
convention" The opposition of the
people to that plan, does not deserve
the designation prejudice ut is a
settled conviction derived from eXpe-
Tience and observation, that a cOnven-
ton does not reflect the will of the
people more than one time in three,
but that cunning managers work the
ropes for the benefit OF their special
favOrites in two cut Of every three Of
the assemblages designated by the
term " convention" This mode of
selection being ignored as Anti-Demo-
cratic, inefficient and corrupt-let us
consider the plan suggested by the
VirgiRiQH-tO-wit, "that the people in
each Township, at an early day, APP
point two or more gentlemen to re-
ceive their ballots, and vote for the
gentlemen of their choice for candi-
dates, the vote being taken the two re-
ceiving the highest number to be de
clared the regular nominees" | pre-
sumo by the people" the TirgiaiaR
means all 6Ut Republicans.
The P1giHi0n says further "men
may feel easy and confident with a
knowledge Of this large Consc rvative
majority in Washington, but with
dozen or even half a dozen candidates
in the field, the opposition can and
will run one i'll on us, if not two"
With all due Difference, | hope the
Editors of the TirgniQn will allow me
TO differ with them as to the result
with half a dozen candidates i'll the
field (Which L will proceed to de
nominate.
Put the Conservative vote at 300
and the Republican vote at SEQ, for il
lustration, which numbers are as near
~ CO. rect as we can determine by the
Books and the actual vote |
at elections since the adoption of the |
COnstition. Let there be six candi- !
dates on one side and two on the other. |
Say that the foremost two of the six |
get ninehundred votes each, thus leav- 1
ing 1900 to be cast for the four candi- I
dates, which if thrown evenly would |
give 10 each two 500 votes-then how 1
are " they to run one in on US, if not /
two" Ii could not be done. The re-
suit would be the same as il one only
was To be elected, and there were three
on one side and one on the
of the three would have
$50 votes IF each received the same
vote to 600 for the opposite candidate.
IN ether words divide 300 votes be-
tween six candidates, each voter vo-
ing for two, and the foremost two
would beat the opposite candidate 233
votes at least.
In vote of $500 TO 600 the result
would be the same if eight candidates
'un on one side and two opposite can
lidates run two of the eight would be
'ertdin to be elected, because one-fourth
II $500 is more than 600. But who
ver saw eight candidates receive the
anne number of votes each, where two
My are to he elected? Some four or
i've of Them would run far Jeh5ad-
