| To 1s Efttor q tee Register:
The communication in the hfsl;seacr
yesterday, signed "A Delegate" pur-
porting TO come from Fairmont, is OF
character that under ordinary circum-.
s,ancs ought TO receive no attention; but il
seems to he tho policy OF Republicans and
their aids, through the medium of the In
teiigeaoer, to keep public attention con-
stantly directed TO few arivate quarrels,
likes and dislikes Of individual
Democrats for each other, and by
this means to get up factions and
following for the several comhatants
who shall be mustered in the coming
councils of the party Ia create disorder.
We hope no Democrat will he deceived
into aiding the Eniligaor in this pro-
gramme. as We have abundance OF oppor-
tunity within our own ranks and through
the medium of our own papers 10 settle
disputes, or give expression TO political
sentiment or preference.

making up Of n slate for Legislative candi-
dates, and naming them, Is, we doubt not,
entirely without foundation, but Is another
device 20 create jealousy and disirust
amongst Democrats.
| Republicans are well aware
HOW HATEFUL IN A DEMOCRAT
Is all manner of boSsism and slate making.
and how tenacious the masses of the party
are 10 maintain their right 10 name their
candidate. without interference from so-
called bosses, hence they suppose they
strike tender point and damage the party
generally, and Senator Camden particular
ly, when they attribute 10 him the making
of a slate. Don't he troubled with
states appearing in the papers oi Republi.

the intention of confusing Us The masses
of the Democratic party in convention will
make up the only slate that will get their
votes. These men will bc named for their
fitness and ability 10 represent
our important interests. They will
not be selected because they are reliable
Camden or anti-Camdcn men. They will
not bc selected because they are Germans,
lrshmen, whisky men, laboring mcn or
Americans by birth. They may In any Of
these, or bc composed of all of them, but
these things are nots qualifications, and IL
is simply degrading and oontemptiblc Ia
consider them in selecting candidates.
Every candidate will bc an American
citizen and citizen Of this State. lie
will have ability and honesty. lie will
