The Democrats of North Carolina will
hold a state convention at Raleigh on next
Thursday The business of most interest
to outsiders which will come up will be a
proposition to fuse with the Populists. The
recent Populist convention did not propose
a fusion with the Democrats, but adopted
a resolution in favor of fusion with 'any"
party or faction of a party with which
acceptable terms could be made. In the
last election the Popuists and the Re
pubicans had fusion; in the election pre-
ceding there was a combination between
the Popuhsts and the Democrats. To keep
up the rotation this would be the year for
the Democrats to come in again, but many
of the leaders of the party are opposed
to any sort of deal with Marion Butler
and are in favor of a.
square stand-up fight, even if
they get beaten. Whether or not
this commendable purpose will be sustain
ed by the convention remains to be seen
During the past four or five years the
Democratic party of North Carolina has
not distinguished Itself for the possession
of backbone.
