determined in what way democratic candi-
dates shall be elected to GIL the various of.
fees TO be voted for IN August next.
Either a convention or primary election
should be adopted at once aud day fixed
for holding it. The candidates generally
favor primary election. There was con-
siderable dissatisfaction with the conven-
ton of four years ago, and, no doubt, a
primary election would be the best means
to adopt at present Whatever is to be
done, however, should be done without

the field early and an active canvass be-
gun. The republicans, Disguised with the
results Of the fusion ticket four years ago,

from the two parties, we shall have a
square fight, and the longest pole will
knock the persimmons. The democrats
have only 10 select good men, and this be-
Ing done, there will be no trouble about
the longest pole sH
