Pursuant to the call of the Dem

each of the several States to assem-
BILE in Chicago on July 9TH next,
for the purpose of nominating can
didates for President and Vice
President of the United States, the
Democratic State Executive Com
mittee IS hereby requested to meet
in the city Of Columbia On Tues
day, tie 7th day of April, 1896. at
the hou- of s o'clock p. M, for the
purpose of taking the necessary
steps looking to the reorganization
of The Democratic party, and to the
assemblage of the State convention
to elect delegates to the national
convention as provided for by al
ticle " of the constitution of the
party. Recognizing as l do the
wide differences of opinion as to
the details of party policies and
party management, yet fully alive
to the present emergencies upon
the Democracy, we cannot but re-
alize that the party's purposes and
successes aan only be attained by
discipline and organization. AS
understood by us, the hope of the
country is centered in the Demo
cratic party. It's principles, which
have been handed down from JEFF
ferson and Jackson, are absolutely
necessary to maintain the equal
rights of all of the States and to
secure the wise and economical
government of he cou try What
ever differences there may be as to
the application of the general prin-
ciples for which the party stands,
all must agree that only by harmo-
nv, concession, and Loyalty to the
party, can great ends be accom-
plished. The representatives. Of
this State should, therefore, go to
the national convention with fix
ed determination to meet their
brethren in a spirit of unity and
with & view 10 harmony. United
and in perfect accord, we ought to
be able to continue in control of
the government. With deter
mination to introduce harmony, we
can gain much in the direction of
our own desires as to the appllca-
tion of Democratic principles; we
can gain nothing except the defeat
ffota eff the d our -dssseTminatfon to dis
organize if we cannot have our
particular views carried out. How
ever we may differ as to details
with our brother Democrats from
other sections OF the Union, we all
know that the Democratic creed
and Democratic control of the
government are far better for us
than anything we may expect from
our opponents.
