1t is said that tho Speaker Of the pres,
ent House Of Representatives, Gen
keifer, is having hot contest for the
denomination to Congress from his dis.
trict in Ohio. The trouble seems to be
that tho colo.ed ya.eEs, Who hold the
balance of power, are dissatisfied Will,
him, because he mas given tho negro
very little show in his appointments as
Speaker. 1t is, of course, expected that
he will overcome this difficulty, for it is
On unheard- Of thing for tho Speaker oi
tho House to be beaten in his own party.
The whole forces Of the administration
will be thrown in his favor, and it is
pretty certain to control the nomination.
After he gets that, tho colored vote is, of
course, expected to come up as usual in
the general election to save "the party"
from defeat! Tie Republican idea Of
the negro is, that he is a good animal to
do Us much of the voting rs possible,
and that he should be paid by the be-
stoWuieutt Of just as ffew Offices as ha can
be made to put up with. Mr.. Keifer is
by wor- great friend of the negro, but
by practice he, like tho balance. of the
Republicans, prefers n whito man when
It comes to parcelliug out the Offices. If
tho Ohio negroes have any self.respect,
they will defeat Keifer this fall, even if
they have to elect Democrat to accom-.
plish it.

Among the many important questions
that will be brought before the approach
ing State Convention, there is perhaps
none worthy Of more careful considera-
ton than the proposed amendment of
the Constitution relative to the basis of
representation in future Conventions, and
the mode Of nominating Congressman.
The present basis of representation is
in proportion TO the whole population of
the separate counties, while the fair and
just way, We think, should be in proper
ton to the Democratic vote cast As
the representation stands now, Beaufort
County, which polls only about five hun.
drcd Democratic votes, has eight dele-
gates i'll the State Convention, while
Anderson County, which polls over $500
Democratic votes, only has ten delegates,
whereas the proper portion should be
Anderson seven delegates to every one
delegate from Beaufort. We have to do
seven visiiiiis Of the Democratic voting
done in the two counties, and it is fair
that wc should have srven.eighti,s of the
delegates in the Convention. This
amendment will be earnestly pressed,
and ought to prevail. Another desira-
BILE change, wo think, would be the nom.
ination of Congressman by primary
election. This would bring our people
into closer personal relation to federal
politics, and would bring tho Congress.
men closer to the people. They would
have to go into every part Of their dis
trict, and would necessarily become nc.
Guainted with the wishes and tho needs
Of their constituents in more thorough
manner than they do, or can do under
the present system. In our opinion this
change would greatly strengthen tho
Democratic party, and give us able aud
popula. representatives in Congress.

Senator Kellogg is rejoicing over the
fact that the Grand Jury in the Star
Route cases did not find true bill
against him. Public opinion, however,
is fast reaching tine conclusion that no

against him, but he ought to be punished
as criminal for his completely in these
frauds. 1t is said that he has escaped by
threatening TO turn the Senate over to
the Democrats if he is not protected by
the administration. His conspicuous
position induces many independent pa.
pers to criticise the Republican party,
and among them the Springfield Repub.

TIE GEORGIA COSyENTIOS.

! One Of the mos, interesting and i'm
portant Conventions ever held by the
Democrats Of Georgia for the nomination
Of State officers convened in Atlanta las:
week. The two prominent points Of in
| tercst were the GubcrnatOrial nOmina-
ton, which was contested by Hon. Alex
andcr III. Stephens and Hon 4. O.
! Bacon, Speaker Of the Georgia House Of
Representatives, and the question of
changing the rules of the party in
Georgia 50 Is 10 ;sl!ow nominations 20 be
made By 4 majority Of II convention in
stead Of requiring u two third, vote to
nominate. Upon hc fir. point, it Was
vel! understood after The primary meet.
iug> in Georgia that nothing bu, the two.
thirds rule could defeat Mr.. Stephens, As
he had nearly twpthirls Of the delegates
elected instructed by their constituents
to vote for him, and it WAS likely 10 be Il
very close vote if the Old rule WA aI.
hcrcd to, so tina, The fight resolved Itself
into the aIl-absorbing question Of :.mc;.I-
ing III" rules. 1t will be remembered
that two wears ago tlc tVnycntirn adop-
ted the two thirds rulc, and that under
It's operations no nomination for Gov
cENor was made Coy. Co!gutt getting
largely more than half, but not quite
two.thirds of the Convention; and, both
factions refusing compromise, two men,
Gov. Colluitt and ex-senator ,lorwood,
ran for Governor rs Democrats. The
trouble Of the last election brough, the
matter home to the people, and i, was
thoroughly discussed all over the State,
SO that in the late Convention the rule
was changed SO rs only to require q ma.
Jori'y vote to nominate. The vote on
changing the rule stood ayes, 100 IS );
nays, lGi 10.
Nominations for Governor were then
made, md it being generally kmowm Tia.
Mr.. Stephens WAS safe, Mr.. Bacon with.
drew lis name from tho race and Mr.
Stephens was nominated by nn almost
unanimous vote, which stood Stephens,
1926; blank and scattering, 80
The following State officers were next
nominated:

nett, Of Baldwin.
Comptroller. General. Hon. William
A. Wright, Of Richmond.
Treasurer Hon. ID. n. s'pccr, If

Attorney General Hon. Clifford An.

The next point Oh interest was tic
nomination Of Congressman at Large,
whicl, resulted as follows: Thomas
