She Democratic Party and Local OPP
tlOn.
CoRsICANA, Aug. T.-LCorraspon-
dence. 1T has often been asserted
that the Democratic party, as party,
is the author of tho present constitu-
ton Of our State, and therefore, of the
provision, as to the enactment OF ths
local option law. The reverse of this
is the truth. 1t is true, no doubt, that
q majority OF the members of the con-
vention which formed the constitution
claimed to be Democrats, and it is also
no doubt true that q majority Of the
people who voted for it were Demo-
Gratis, but the Democratic party in
State convention assembled has OK
pressly refused to put the party appro-
val upon 1t, or to even recommend to
the members to vote for it,
At tina State convention held in Gal
weston in January 1875, when Cover
nor Coke was ra-nominated, Colonel
Elliot, r deleg9se from IreVis county,

port, and failing in this, he arose in
his scat in the convention to offer a
resolution to this effect, but upon read
ing it aud seeing the great disfavor
manifested, withdrew it, when
Colonel w. l.. Crawford, who was q
member of the constitutional conven-
ton, arose and moved tho adoption OF
the resolution, arguing at some length
that the party should III convention
endorse the con stitution.
The Hon. d. G. Giddings moved to
Law the resolution upon the table,
which was seconded by Colonel
Charles Stewart, and, upon a vote by
q call of counties, the motion prevailed
by a very large majority. l was a
member of this State convention and
remember these proceedings dis
tinct!y, and also remember the perfect
