rIlE UNIT RULE.

n will be a very serious mistake upon
the part of the Democratic State Con-

difficult to conceive the suggestion OF
such an innovation TO the Democracy OF

cause of much harm to the party. 1t
has been the custom of the Virginia De-
mocracy TO select its representatives to
national conventions. aside from those
selected for the State at large, by the
respective Congressional districts-and
to adopt any other course, will be in
violation of this feature of home rule,
that 50 long has distinguished the Demo-
cracy of Virginia.
