Mr. Louis Applet introduced the fol-
lowing resolution:
Resolved. That our county Democratic e4ecu-
tive committee be. and the same Is hereby. in
>tructed 10 provide At the coming primary eiec-
ton. 4 separate box for the purpose OF aScer-
tanning the wishes OF the voters with regard 10
the building OF 4 new jail. That the majority
vote on this question vii! be taken as lnStruc-
tons to our Representatives in the Genera! Az
Sembly whether or not the people want them 10
make provisions for the building Of new jan.
a need constantly being called 10 the attention
Of the courts by our grand Iurle>.
The convention was not in the least
exciting, as there We're no tirebrands
thrown into the camp. The only thing
which caused any discussion was the
above resolution. The delegates to the
State convention are all in favor of con-
tinuing the dispensary system. 1t was
one of the most harmonious conven-
tions ever held in the county. While
it is fact that the liquor question was
not sprung. the result in the vote for
delegates shows, ii was taclt under
standing that the convention was over
whelmingly in favor of the diSpenSary
system.
The State convention meets in Co
lumbia on "Wednesday. 10th inst. and
it is hoped that every member OF the
Clarendon delegation will answer TO
their names when the roll OF the con-
vention IS called.
