OF character and ability the Convention VIII be fuy
equal similar gatherings Of the Democracy IN tnis
ate far many years past. aud general desire Is e&-
pressed that the ticket to be nomnited shall be SUI
perior. The action OF state Committee III refusing
to increase the number Of delegates to give rep
resentation in the Convention TO LIBERAL Republicans
and others opposed to the Administration party Is

rural Democracy and one Of the things certain to be
done by the Convention is t. Increase the
number " delegates o. three fOm each Assembly Dis
