The time has como when tho Southern democrat who, upon any pretext, attempts to weaken his party is an enemy to his country.' {" Democrats must stand together" is good advice. It is the way to accomplish much good in the South. "Where to live in the South and be white man, must be to belong to the democratic party is bad logic. We take it that while therc are some terribly bad fellows in the Republican party, there are also some as good mon aa ever drew the breath of life. We don't ask a white man hts politics before we associate with him.
 We invite white men of every and any political views to come South and be our neighbors. The only restriction we propose is that he bc not leader of the ignorant negro politicianers for personal aegrandixement. and against the inter- ct of the respectable and intelligent people and the county.

 If both wings of the Democratic party in this county really desire to ad- just the political differences that have heretofore existed--and we helieve such course is heartily desired by all good citizens-there is a splendid op- portunity in our suggestion of con vention to be composed of ten or more men from each side, they to settle the differences and nominate people E white democratic ticket, If this con vention is called, we can safely guar antee on the part of the straight dem- ocrats that they will act in good faith and grant equal and exact justice to all concerned.
