THE DEMOCRATIC STATE CONVENTION.

1t is gratifying to the pooplc of the
State to note tho spirit Of peace and har-
mony that prevailed in the proceedings
Of tho Democratic State Convention
which convened in Columbia last week.
1t is evident that the bitter factional
fouds which have rent in twain the
Democratic ranks in our State for the
past ten years arc at an end. In the
State Convention only one discordant
noto was heard, and the piper pipcd but
no one danced.
This being the year in which both
State and Federal officers Will be elected
it is natural and proper that the people
should take deep interest in political
matters. 1t is their duty to do SO. But
this can be donc without distracting
factional wrangling. Let the campaigns
be pitched on high plane. Nothing
should be done to rctard the industrial
and material development now going ON,
Our campaigns can be wagcd without
tho disruption of business matters. We
want tho best men elected to Office, and
in South Carolina the contests must be
waged within the Democratic party
lines. Let the candidates comport them
selves in n manner worthy of tho conf
dencc and support Of the voters, and al
will bo vol.
