Tell a candidate in tine primary that he is defeated and he is satisfied for he knows the same voice would say the same in the general election. Let us not fail to instruct our delegates all over the county to vote for the primary. But if the convention sys tenn be adopted, let us make no fuss about it, but send our best men and make the best of it ~e can. In unity alone is there strength.
