appropriately thanked the convention
for the honor in choosing him to pre-
side over the deliberations of the

unerripgly foreto!d the gathering
of the storm cloud of debate,
Which soon burst, when Senator

providing that the Magistrates be
nominated by the primary system
instead of being recommended by the
members of the General Assembly.

consumed about three hours and
ended by the adoption of the reso-
luton.

Sharpe, was adopted:
Resolved, That the clubs Of Os=a
and Ballentine be received as Demo-
cratic clubs of Lexington county ard
that the delegates from said clubs
be seated in the convention.
The following resolution, offered
By Senator Crosson, was, after q
:eagthy debata, adopted:
Resolved. That Magistrates be
elected By primary election as here
tofore.
NJ. Sharpe moved to amend By
inserting tina: Magistrates be selected
By the Cyunty Democratic Executive
Committee.
This resolution is what brought on
he debate. There was q wide diver
s~enceof opinion among the speakers
and the convention VAS pretty evenly
iivlded 90 the question. The fol-
towing members of the convention
participated in the debate:
Senator D. n. Crosson, Prof. [. A
Sease, Representative W. H. Sharpe,
ColoueI J. Brooks Vineyard, Colonel
D. T. Barr, Captain j. F. Lyles, ".

elected County Chairman.
Cvlonel D. J. Gri6i b was unani-
mous!y reelected member of State
Executive Committee from Lsxing-
ton.
