pEnecsAr,C STATE ooxvExrIox.

A convention of the Democrats Of the
State has been called to meet at Charles
ton on the 10th day Of April The pur-
poses Of the convention are set forth in
the call. Not q more important con-
yention will be held In the State this
year. Therefore, it Is desirable that the
party In every county take especial
pains to be fairly and fully represented
by their wisest and ablest men. This
Is the initiative of the campaign. 1t Is
time for the people-the masses of the
party-the farmers, the business men,
the mechanics, the bone and muscle OF
the party, to be on hand and give direc-
ion to the policy that is to prevail.
The Democratic party is the party OF
{ e p, ople; and 1t is as important that
the people who compose the party
attend the convention as that they
attend the polls. The party will be
just what they make it; its policy Will
be the policy they mark out for it; the
candidates will be the candidates Sc
leeted by them for it; and the officers
will be the officers of their choice.
This holds good in local, In county and
In State affairs.
1t should require no appeal from us
to induce the people to look after their
interests and wishes in these matters.
Again we say, we hope every county
will be fully represented by its wisest
and most prudent Democrats in this
Safe Convention.
Let US come together and freely COM
pare views in friendly manner, actu'
ated only by the desire to advance the
general welfare. II We start right the
results are certain to be satisfactory.

There is muciIage on the backs of
the Democratic candidates.
The motto of Cleveland and Hen
bricks is: "a short horse is soon
curried."
These are the days when no Demo-

easy reach.
The New York World calls Ben
Butler IAN incorrigible political
tramp" And yet Ben created more
commotion in the Democratic con-
vention than any man in it.
There is really more talk about the
old ticket in Democratic circles than
there was before the Chicago Con-
vention. 1t cannot be shut off nor
smOthered, and nobody seems to
know how to manage it.
General Logan very properly de-
voted a considerable portion of his
speech last night to the industrial
questions of the campaign. Speaking
to an audience largely interested in
trade and manufactures, he made
some telling arguments in favor of
the Republican policy Chicago In
ter Ocean.

An Outrage Near Oakland.

Monday morning Mr.. Lawrence
Zwoll, a German residing on the
Hooppole road, about 7 miles from
Oakland, came to Justice GOnder's
Office and swore out warrant charg-
ing Lewis Shartzer with having COM
mitted a rape on his daughter Mary,
aged about II years, on the above
named road about 81 miles from Oak
land, while on her way to attend
church on Sunday. The warrant was
placed in the hands of Sheriff HamiIl,
who went to Accident, this county,
and arrested the accused about noon
of the same day, and brought him to
Oakland and lodged him in Jail the
same evening. Wednesday at 10 A.
NJ. was fixed upon for a preliminary
examination, but the accused waived
an examination and was committed
to await the action of the Grand Jury
next week,
Mr.. Shartzer is about % years of
age and married. He resides in Oak

The question of Cleyeland's with
drawal is being seriously discussed.
The New York San (Dem.l urges it,
and the New York Independent, one
of the original supporters of Cleve-
land, in long article last week, says:
"Governor Cleveland should posi-
lively decline to be a candidate and
Withdraw Immediately from the cam
vass and be compelled to do so, if
necessary. The party which nomi-
mated him through its chosen repre-
sentatives should then recOnyene and
select a new ticket that will COM
mand the hearty support of the peo-
pie of all parties. There is time
enough to do this, and there is no
hope or safety in any other course.
To stand still now or to attempt TO
go bIindIy forward with the present
ticket would in our judgment be an
insult to the Ruler of Nations, sure
death to the Democratic party, in
Guiding also its leaders, and an ever
lasting disgrace to the Republic"

Blaine's sadness is explained. He
is afraid Cleveland will be forced to
withdraw,
1t is evident that General Butler is
no longer bottled up. He is out and

1t is rumored that Cleveland is in

Editor Dana announces in the Sun
that he will vote for Butler. This
