The democratic state convention
met ut Little Rock ON last Tuesday,
and was organized by. the election OF
ID. l.. Gilgrove, of Columbia, perma-
nent president, and G, G. Newman, OF
jefferson, secretary. A very protracted
discussion ensued on the policy OF
adopting q resolution pledging the
members to abide the action Of the
convention. Tho convention adjourn
ell on Tuesday night without coming
to u vote on the qcestion. On re-
assembling "Wednesday morning the
discussion was resumed, and finally
the following platform was agreed
upon:
Whereas, The constitutional con-
vention, recently assembled at Little
Rock, framed n constitution for the
state of Arkansas, and the same has
been submitted to the people for rati-
hcation on the thirteenth of October,
1874; and,
Whereas, In the opinion of this
convention the constitution so submit
ted Is just, liberal and wise, and will
secure to this state peace and prosper
ity, properly enforced; therefore, be
II
Resolved, That the people be and
they are earnestly requested and adj
vised to use their best efforts to secure
the ratification of said constitution,
and TO have the same carried into effect
and enforced according to lis letter,
meaning aud spirit.
Resolved, That In this movement
all persons within the state desiring
her future welfare, regardless Of past
issues and differences, are cordially in
vited to secure the equality of all men
before the law, honesty ana capability
in the administration of every public
duty, the speedy and just punishment
Ofevery crime, the purity and freedom
of the ballot, the advancement and
perpetuation of public education, econ
omy in every department of the gov
eminent, the rightful use of every pre-
rogative of power, to the end that the
protection of the rights of the whole
people shall be complete
Resolved, That this convention
pledges its undated eXertions to secure
the adoption of such constitution, rs
well as the election of tie persons
nominated by it for the different offices
ofthe state ticket.
After the platform had been adopted
the nomination of a candidate for gov
ernor was gone into, On the first bal
lot Baxter, the present incumbent, re-
received ilfty-one votes scattering,
seventeen. Baxter was declared the
nominee amid the widest excitement,
anda committee was appointed to wait
upon him and inform him of his nom-
nation. The committee soon returned
with letter from the governor, in
which he Endorsed the platform and
announced himself In sympathy with
the people as represented in the con-
yention, but declined the nomination
because he deemed II best for the in
terest ofthe state that he should do so.
This unexpected declination enthused

ously opposed him withdrawing their |

ton OF the address delivered by Judge
Norton. II exhibited great industry
and research In IT. preparation and
was delivered Ia most agreeable

the rise and progress Of the newspapers
of Texas. II will, IN fact, form the ba-
sis upon which II thorough and rclla-

impressed with the labor and PAINS

Judge Norton's Address.

10 the Editor OF the Dallas Herald:
The address of Judge Norton before
the press association, on the history of
the Texas press, was an admirable
production, teeming with interesting
facts and containing remarkably few in
correct statements. There were omitted
quite number of interesting facts and
incidents connected with the early
press of the country, which should be
supplied before the address is printed
in permanent form, and which Judge
Norton himself greatly desires. The
committee having the matterin charge,
of whom he is one, will do all they
can to perfect the data.

corn was gathered off OF six acres. The
land was cleared this spring and the
dry weather stopped the breaking and
planting of any more. Heplanted this
corn ON the 10th of last May. II was
chopped through and thinned one
time. 1t was never ploughed after
planting. The corn was gathered the
26th day of August. Not a particle of
rain fell on the corn after it was plant
