Congressional Convention.

The Democratic Congressional Con-
vDntion should be called at us early Il
day as possible. The force Of circum-
stances has placed the party in this
district in very peculiar il not UNI
fortunate position. The nomination
Of Owen King by the Greenback
purity renders the election Of a Demo-
cratic candidate very doubtful. IT is
rather humiliating to be compelled to
make this confession; but IL Is well
for us TO look 1T the facts Us they
axist. Personally the Democrat enter
tains the highest regard for Mr.. King,
and while it does NOT take any stock
IN hl5 extreme financial views, it
would prefer To see him elected to
Congress rather than any Republican
Al the district.
Mr.. King has seen fiji To cut loose
from tho Democratic party and act
Independent Of it, which he had i per-
feet right To do. lie can not therefore,
DO considered u good Democrat, and
is not deserving Of the support Of
tho Democratic party. But whether
Democrats can afford To work for the
success 81 the Republican candidate
by putting third man IN the field,
with little hope Of clccting him, is
quite another question. We are OPP
posed to the sacrifice Of principle for
the sake Of party success. IL were
better To suffer defeat II thousand
times, than To adopt wrong measures
for tho sake Of temporary victory.
The Democratic party is stronger
Today than ever before. We have
now To do with this district, where it
is greatly in the minority. Therefore
lot the Democratic Convention be
called nj an early day, and let the
views Of the party upon the question
Of making u congressional nomination
no fully CanvasSed.

What the Potter Investigation has
A Accomplished,

Republicans frequently ask, "Well,
what has the Potter investigation ac
complishcd after aIl Z" But the ques-
TONERS usually wear funeral look as

liran party was sounding III their

ness be asked, what has not the in

tahlished the fact Of the intimacy eN-

manner wherein they We're rewarded
