THE STATE JUDICIAL CONvEN.
TON.

The State Democratic Convention
held last week in Raleigh nomin ated
the old Judges for another term.
That each able man no one can
hesitate to admit, that all three will
be elected by large majority next
November no one can fear, and equal
ly as accurate as these two premises,
is, the existance of a doubt concerning
the wisdom of the casting out of the
proxy votes, by which, one-fourth of
the counties of the State was left with
out voice in the nominations and may
in consequence feel luke-warmness
in the support of the gentlemen nomi-
mated.
A western delegate is reported to
have said that, nine-tenths OF the
proxy vote were for new court, and
the convention didn't strengthen the
Democracy in the West by excluding
it." These facts are to be looked at
square in the face, and it is mistaken
policy to shut our eyes to the possible
effects such action will have among
the rank and file of the party. In
THE SENTILEL's estimation it would
have been much more discreet to have
adopted resolution opposing proxy
representation in future conventions
and the Executive Committee could
have carried out this line of policy.
This was an essentially personal
convention, principles took care of
themselves, and the meeting adjourn
ed without having signified its endorse
ment or censure of the Cleveland ad-
ministration, the first Democratic reg
ime the country has had in a quarter
of a century, and the convention with
deplorable oversight failed to express
itself upon single question Of the
day.
RICHMOND PEARSON is at least due
the credit Of having tried to sandwich
into the report of the Committee on
Platform, a resolution relative to Civil
Service reform, but this measure was
promptly squelched says the reports
OF the meeting.
The SENTINEL while devotedly at
tached to the time honored principles
OF Democracy, which it shall ever bat
tie for and defend, is still free to re-
mark that this convention in placing
itself in so unequivocal position and
in its failure to meet face to face the
live issues of the day has therein also
failed to voice the sentiments of the
Democratic people at home.

THE PROPLE ARE THE RULERS.

THE PEOPLE ARE THE RULERS.
In an interesting discussion of
"Modern Hero-Worship" the London
Spectator that couples.the United States
with France to illustrate the remark /:
"In whole countries there is no CON-
manding personality, and life goes on
as if there was in reality no need of
one, and the world in the poets sense,
suficed to itself" The truth of this
cannot be disputed. In the fold of
politics where personality yields its
greater influence over the fortunes of
a State, we have no pre-eminent man
in the relation which GLADSTONE
bears to British affairs or the great
chancellor to German politics. We
have men made prominent by the po-
sitions they fill and not by their ex-
ceptional capacity for the positions.
Our leading public men belong to
that large class of second rate persons
who are magnified by the places they
hold, and whose death or retirement
does not effect the current of national
life any more than did GAMBETTA's
that of France, over whom, as the
Spectator says, ''the waves closed with
out more than momentary ripple"
The reason why we in American
have no men of personal ascendency in
such affairs as Mr.. GLADSTONE or
Prince BISMARCK, in their respective
countries, is that there is no opportun.
ity or occasion tor him. The public
school house has brought the political
intelligence of the American people
up to such level beyond which only
great occasion cam elevate the individ.
ual. It is the case of the ,plains rising
up to the mountains. with no lonely
Mt. Everest visible and lonely by its
singular prominence. Government
in the United States has come to be
simply the regulation ola stupendous
business establishment. The people

sYKEsvILLE ITEMS.
Enjoyable INTERCHANGEABLE Of Farm

The Young ladies of ''Springfeld'' Church
gave an entertainment at the Academy on the
evening of July 18th, the object being to raise
funds for new library for the Sabbath school
of this church. The management OF the at
fair was under the charge of Misses Ella
Schultz and Lillian Hewitt, assisted by the
Presbyterian minister's wife, Mrs. T. +.
Flournoy. The entertainment consisted OF
chorus of olden times, songs, dialogues and
Mrs. Jarleys Waxworks. In the chorus OF
ssNellie Gray" "Auld Lang Syne," etc.,
Mrs. L. II. Schultz presided at the lnstru-
ment, whilst Miss Nellie Flournoy played the
accompaniment to the selections sung by
Misses Anderson and Owings. The musical
portion was so directed as to occupy the in
teryals between the arrangement of the hg-
ures in the waxworks. Miss Bessie Ander-
son, of Baltimore, sang selection entitled,
s'Take Back the Heart Thou Gavest Me"
Miss Anderson's voice has long been under
the cultivation of the best talent of the city,
and the perfect command which she has over
it was greeted with deafening round OF ap-
plause, which was prolonged until her reap
pearance to sing sThe Cows are in the Clover,
Maggie" Miss Minnie 0wings, of Elhcott
CITY, also sang several selections that excited
prolonged encore Miss Lillian Hewitt, as
Madam farley, presented seven groups OF
this famous COLLECTION, all OF Whlcn were as
siduously wound up by "John." The QUILTING
Circle dialogue given by Misses Z Schultz,
L. Hewitt, Nellie Warfed, Lula Verney and
Eunice Gather, proved beyond doubt the
most laughable scene of the evening. The
ladies were encouraged by large and appre-
ciative audience The handsome sum real
lied will be very shortly appropriated towards
securing the object in view.

tract ofland containing several hundred acres,
known as the "Mine Farm" to gentleman
