THAT CONVENTION.

"The Democratic wire-pullers of
Sharp county should have possessed
modesty enough to give the candi-
dates for State offices an opportunity
to be heard by the ral.k and file.
Such haste will be Of no great ad-
vantage to the party. Ii the Democ-
racy Of Sharp county are really for
the gentlemen named, ali right but
lit would have looked mu4h better to
have waited untl .he candidates had
passed the boundaries Of ihe county
before holding the convention. Ii we
retain power in the State we must
act half way decent at lest"
The above dirty l@le sling,
srv1lz r. .s,zTr1;sctSf -cFaCz1y STt'
characterizes as a "sefere criti-
.cism," is from the Fayetteville
Democrat, and without any in
tention of satisfying the whim
of a senseless wilmer, as the
Democrat has proved itself to
be in this instance, but for the
information of "decent" newspa-
pers in the State, we will state
some Of the reasons why our
convention was held thus early.
1t has always been the rule here
flor our County Convention to be
held at the spring term OF our
Circuit Court, as by that means
we could gather more Of the peo-
pie than at any other time. Our
convention Of 1876 was the first
held in the State on this account,
and unless we suffer ourselves
dictated to by a set of curmudg-
cons, who, without knowing a
solitary person in our county,
will charge US with wire-pulling, we
shall continue to choose such times
as will insure to us the most general
turnout Of the people. The candi-
dates for State Offices had made their
appointments in this portion Of the
State, leaving Sharp county entirely
out. In our recent conven-
ton all of the townships in the
county, except two Of the small
est, which are fully satisfied with
the result, were represented, and
the question Of the propriety OF elect
ing and instructing delegates was
submitted to a committee represent
ing all portions Of the county, who
reported IN favor Of the instructions
given, which report was unanimous
.ly adopted by the conventionj and
not augord have we heard from any
Democrat residing in the county
against the action Of the convention.
1t seems to us that the people OF
Sharp county should be their own
Judges of what is proper, Democratic
and decent, without advice from
county lying remotely from us and
knowing nothing Of the circumstan-
ICES surrounding us. Gen. Jackson
once knew man in Tennessee, who
made fortune by attending to his
own business. Let the Democrat and
other papers profit by the example.
We clip the following from tho

EDITOR RECORD; AS your pleasant
town was once my home, and having
many kind friends among your
readers, perhaps a few words from
the Ione Star State" would be Of
some interest Our little town,
which is only two years old, con-
talns 200 inhabitants. 1t has the
reputation OF being one among the
most desirable locations in western
Texas. 1t is improving rapidly. A
magnificent cut-limestono Jail is
nearing completionj good substan-
tial court house, with an excellent
public well on the square. All |
see needed now to make it com
plete is a newspaper. Society IS
good, and this county is filing up
with a liberal, social and intelligent
class of people. The estimate shows
there will be 10000 head Of cattle
driven to market from this county
this seasOn. The town OF tt. Ufll-
fin, which is situated in the north
east corner Of this county, contains
700 white inhabitants and 100 Ionk-
away Indians. Most all the Fonka-
way men belong to the army, while
the women are engaged dressing
pelts, making fancy bead work, &c.
Notwithstanding we have had no
rain in this vicinity since the lrst
of January, vegetation is at ali ad-
vanced stage. y.
