DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION CALLED.

X. Parsons was chosen Secretary
MIR. Stephens sal the object for calling
the committee together was to agree upon
some date to hold the County Convention,
and to attend to such other business as might
coma before the meeting. The republicans
had already announced their candidates, and
g.eas many voters were anxious to know
who the Democracy would place in the field.

held at an early date. He said he would like
to have an expression from those present as
TO the best time for calling the Convention.
Add G Hiukson was called upon for his
views, and responded by saying that he had
met with those that had wanted to wait until
after the State Fair, but he believed that the
maiority of the Democrats favored an early
day. He hoped that the committee would
agree upon as early date as possible.
E. Greer spoke in favor Of short cam
paign, and thought il best not to cali the Con-
yeution together until after the fair.
Mr.. Cofmln G. Wells and others favored
calling TIE Convention together at once, SC
that Democrats might know who they were
to vots for.

Committee agreed to call the Convention on
the 7Ih day Of September, at ii o'clock.
Mr.. Drake moved that no proxies be al

one. The rumor started from an accider
which happened TO a young man by the nam
of Al. Martin, who was hunting near Rosl
braugh's Fiat OF that day. He had laid h
gundown on the hillside while sngsgedin dres
ing deer, when the gun slipped down tt
hill and was discharged by the hammer strii
ing against a rock, the ball striking Martin
the calf OF the leg. This accident, couple
with the fact that AIR. Carey had gone to q
pay that day to arrange some matters wit
MIR. Wood in connection with law sui
doubtless led to the rumor.
