Tire Coming Democratic State
Convention.

We do not attach much Importance to
the movement alluded to in another
column, by the Weston Democrat, for a
poaponcment OF the principal work OF
the Charleston Convention to another
and later and more convenient season OF
the campaign. 1t is natural that the
Democrat should be in favor Of such a
movement considering the bitterness that
has been manifested by the Charleston
Courier towards such men as Senator
Bennett, OF Weston, Judge Camden,
Of Clarksburg, and others Of like views,
who are supposed to be regarded with
special favor by :he Democrat. No doubt
the work OF ths Convention, as laid out
by the Democratic State Committee, will
be gone through with, and State ticket
put in the field. The present call has
stirred up too much commotion among
the office seekers TO admit Of an adjourn
ment without a settlement OF their vari.
GUS aspirations. They will all be at
Charleston in force. The pressure will
be greater than for years past. Times
are hard, offices are Jew, aud the needy
are as the sands Of the sea for multitude.
The majority Of them expect TO be sue
cessful. Bats are not binder, as a rule,
than office seekers. They always sup
pose their chances to be vastly better
than they really are. Hence the aspir-
ants at Charleston who will remain conf.
dent OF success until the last, united with
those who are on hands for the fun OF the
thing, will be sure to press the Conven-
tion into full discharge Of its pro
gramme.
The true way for Ntessss. Bennett,
Camden & Co. to do is to 80 to Charles
ton determined to fight out the issue
made against them by the Courier to the
bitter end. All they have to do is to Ap'
peal their case from the tribunal Of the
corner lot men in and around Charleston
to the disinterested representatives Of the
party from all parts Of the State. The
persecution attempted by the Courier
against all the Capital remOSalists,
especially against the men named, will
react against Charleston. The scenes en-
acted last year at that place in the way
Of attempts to prevent the execution oi
the legislation providing for vthe remoy'
al OF the Capital have had the effect to
weaken the influence OF Charleston
throughout the State. So much 30 that
itisaItogether probable that in case sena
tors Bennett, Judge Camden, and theil
friends, 60 to the Convention determined
to stamp out the political ostracism at
tempted against them, that they will a
least succeed to the extent Of nominating
more Of less OF their friends to office.

Col. Ben goes among the old Jack
