A COUNTY CONVENTION.

/
Col. R. R. Lawther, chairman
of the county democratic exec
utive committee, calling a meet.
ing Of the same on Friday Au
gust 27th for the purpose of q
general consultation regarding
the calling Of a county conven'
ton and the general manage
ment OF the coming campaign
The BANNER has already eX.
pressed its views on county pol
itics; this county is peculiarly
situated, it has a large colored
population nearly all of whom
are republicans; in addition TO
the colorcd element there are a
good many white men, Ger
mans, who have heretofore af-
filiated with the republi-
can party, taking the colored
and the German vote together
the republicans have had a
majority in the county. 1t is
true that heretofore we have
succeeded in electing one or
more democrats, but an analy-
sis Of the vote polled shows that
those democrats were elected
because Of their individual pop
uiaEity and not because of the
strength Of the patty. In max.
ing nominations and putting
county ticket in the field OK
pediency should be consulted;
the question arises will it ac-
complish any good taken in
strictly partisan point of view3
Every man who is true demo-
crat will vote the democrat state
ticket no matter what may be
done in the county; every true
democrat will vote for Seth
Shepard for congressman no
matter what shape county poll
tics may assume. At this time
there seems to be good feeling
among the republicans in this
county towards Shepard and
many have expressed their in
tention of voting for him; a
small number of well known
colored republicans have pub
licly announced their intention
OF supporting him, and we firm
ly believe that il no untoward
influences arc brought to bear
Mr.. Shepard can and will get a
majority ofthe votes polled in
this county. 1t is OF much more
Importance to this COMPRESSION
al district that Mr.. Shepard
be elected than that demo-
cratic county ticket should be
nominated, and perchance, de-
feated.
The BANNER is democratic
paper and is as thoroughly de-
voted to democratic principles
as the most ardent democrat in
the state; it has always worked
for the interests of the demo-
cratic party and the right, and
will continue 10 do so with what
ever ability it may possess. 1t
has never directly advised
against holding a county con-
vention and it does not do so
now. 1t has stated on pre-
vious occasions that the
nomination of a county
ticket is a question Of expedien-
cy. 1t wants good county off
GERS and will do all in its power
ty elect them. 1t must not be
that there is a consid- |
cradle element in the county, |
composed of men who have
been lifelong democrats, who |
are not in favor of party nomi-
nations for county officers, not
because they are not democrats
now, but because they are of
he opinion that politics should
not figure in county affairs. The
republicans will make their nom
nations to-day, Wednesday, |
md upon the material theyput
n the field will have to be de-
the course to be pur-
;ued by the democracy and all
hose in favor of a change.

The News OF Wednesday
publishes an interview with
Hon. Seth Shepard in which he
plainly contradicts the report
that he had, during the last can
vass, directly or indirectly aid
ed in the defeat OF judge Han
cock. The News publishes a
letter written by Shepard dur
ing the canvass and also his
speech and that of his father at
the nominating convention. 1t
says: "The honorable gentle
man is entitled to a hearing in
his own defense against the ac-
cusations of bad faith towards
judge Hancock, and the News
takes pleasure in offering him
an opportunity to explain"

THE c. & M. RY.

The call for railroad meet
ing on Saturday the 2Ist inst,
has been published for some
time and it is to be hoped that
a large attendance will be pres
ent. We have published sew
eral communications in refer
ence to the extension of the
Cchtral and Montgomery road
from Navasota to Brcnham, and
have during the past fifteen
months, referred to the subject
frequently in our editorial col
umns. At the time mentioned
above it is expected that Mr..
Fred A. Rice, president of the
c. and M. road will be present;
representatives of the Inte4
ional and Abe Sunset roadsih
been written to and ingits
cooperate; we have
advised. -
!: :: ]: ! :! : !! ! !
to us idhuber now is
in Brenham, it is estimated that
upwards of 100000 feet are
CONSUMED here annually. Elk
cessive railway freights arc the
cause of high priced lumber at
this place. Our lumber deal
erS are as enterprising and as
liberal as those of any other
city in the state and they sell
for as small profit as then can
in justice to themselves, but
when freight costs nearly as
much as the lumber does at the
mill it must of necessity be high.
The extension of the c. and M.
will put US in direct rail commu-
nication with the mills and will
give us the benefit of as cheap
lumber as any city in the state,
not located Immediately in the
lumber region.
Competent judges estimate
that not less 1000 bales ofcot-
ton from the eastern end of the
county find their way to the
central railroad at Courtney
and Navasota. 1t is safe to say
that if Brenham had direct rail
connection with that part of the
county 5000 bales of the cotton
would find its way to Brennan,
and where the cotton goes the
trade goes too. Every mer-
chant, property owner, profess
sional man, mechanic and la
borer in this city is personally |
interested in securing the road. |
1t is to be hoped the meeting |
will be well attended and that
some definite action will be TAX
en-.

Before the Cincinnati convention General
IIaucocl; wa, described by the New York
Time, as "that rare pLenomeron, = promi-
ncnt Union general who is also a Demo
crat,' aud bis nomination was therefore re-
garled hy tie same high authority ~ oN-
trcmey improbable. Had the 1imee stopp-
ed to reflect aud sean the roll Of prominent
Union generals it would have found the
rareness Of the phenomenon ON the opposite
side. Meade, Hancock, and Reynolds, the
most prominent Union generals at Gettys-
burg, were all Democrats, and what is more,
all pennsyvanians. General Mcclellan is
another rare phenomenon, a prominent Tn
ion general who i also Democrat. Rose
cranz is another and SloCum still another.
Badly Smith, Franklin, Ewing, Steedman,
Rice, Coulter and long list of Union gen
erals might be maie out to show that the
phenomenon IS ty no means rare. II the
1Jm~ or any other Republican authority has
any disposition to enter upon comparisons
in this respect it can be readily acConmo-
dated. 1t will find the rare phenomenon, as
We have remarked, on the other side
