nations made by the epublicans i'll the re-
cont state convention at Ocala are probably
as satisfactory to them as any that could
have been made under the depressing cir
cumstapces that surround them and control
their actions. OF course they entertain
no hope Of electing the state ticket, but
many Of the fIithful are DESTROYS
of becoming prominent so as TO profit by
federal appointment in the very remote
possibility Of the success of tho national re-
publican ticket. Only one colored man
was placed on tho state ticket and yet the
white republicans complain of this slight
concession whom ninety-nine one-hundredths
of the republicans are negroes.
The outlook for full and decided demo
cratic victory in this state is most encour-
aging
TO CARRY ALL BUT DUvAI.
1t ia very probable that every county in
the state will be carried hy the democrats

tsining the city of Jacksonville. Many Of
the more Intelligent negroes will support
tho democratic nominees for county officers

can ma jorities, thus insuring a CONT Luanco

is, above all things else, most essen
tlal to the material prosperity of
this favored section of the state tint
has been heretofore so much neglected.
In this county tine democrats are harmon
ious and eni husiastic. Clubs are being
organized in the various precincts of the
county, and large additions to democrats
are being made by converts among the
more useful and intelligent negroes. who
