A Correction.

To the Editor: Please reprint the
following extract from my article on
Josiah Turner:
"Mr. Turner did not stand alone.
There were strong men all over the
State who gave him countenance: and
here at the State Capital he had con-
slant communication with able and
bold friends. Among them was Judge
Merrimon, an old Wing like himself,
who wrote much and strongly for his
paper"
AS the above appeared in your is
sue of the 10Th. it conveyed the err
roneous impression that | had some
connection with those matters.
oddly enough, nearly every extract
from the writings by Joe Turner in
your issue of the 18th, was written
between August 5, and August 10,
1870; and during those eventful two
weeks, Mr.. Turner was absent a
prisoner held by Kirk. The Sentinel
during that period was edited exclu-
sively by others: some of Judge Merri-
mons contributions being easily pick
ed out from the other editorials.

THE BAR ASSOCIATION.

The Bar Association is. in session at
Charlotte. 1t is to be feared that the
nearness of the State Convention will
lessen the attendance. 1t is almost
certain that Mr.. Davidson, Mr.. Glenn,
Mr. Stedman and Mr.. Turner cannot
take as deep interest in the purely
legal discussions this week as they
could a week ago and the same thing
is true of their supporters.
The Bar Association is composed of
five hundred of the most influential
men i'm North Carolina. The lawyers
i'm North Carolina, in most commune
ties. not only stand first among the
foremost in law, politics and public
spirit as of yore, but they likewise are
among the States first leaders in
manufacturing and business as well.
This commercial age has changed the
legal profession as it has changed all
else. The old time North Carolina
lawyer started in with the judge and
rode the circuit" going from county
to county, and was from home al
most as much as a Superior Court
Judge That practice has almost en-
tirely gone into innocuous desuetude.
There are still some lawyers who prac-
tice i'm several counties, but few who
atterd more than two or three courts
regularly. Their business requires
their presence more. in their office and
most of the practice is localized.
Many lawyers are closely identified
with manufacturing and banking en-
terprises and make a considerable fac
tor in the industrial and financial, as
well as in the professional life of the
Commonwealth. In everything that
makes for the progress and uplift OF
the State lawyers, now as always, are
found among the truest sons of the
State.
The program at Charlotte embraces
important and interesting papers that
will interest the laymen as we'll as the
bar. The invited orator is Hon. Bur-
ton Smith, of Atlanta, one OF the nrSt
lawyers of Georgia, native OF North
Carolina, whose mother bore a. name
honored in this State. He will be
gladly welcomed by the bar and the
citizens of Charlotte in person, and
the whole State in spirit will join in
that welcome.

SENATOR CHAS. A. WEBB.

So far only one member of the last
State Senate has been renominated-
Mr.. Charles A. Webb, of Buncombe.
No man of his years in North Caro-
lima has done more efficient work for
Democracy than Senator Webb AS
chairman in the pivotal county of
Buncombe, he led the party to glori-
Gus victories. When he was nomi-
Lated in 1902 for the Senate, the Re-
lublicans put up Hon. Thos. Settle,
their ablest campaigner, as his oppo-
ncnt. Mr.. Webb came out ahead. He
made n diligent, useful, and capable
Senator, and Buncombe gives him a
unanimous endorsement for re-elec-
ton.

STATE CONVEN-
TION.

The Democratic State Convention
will be called to order in Greensboro
at IL o'clock on Thursday by Hon. F..
Nj. Simmons, State Chairman. Here
tofore it has been a custom to nomi-
nate the candidates first and adopt the
platform just as the convention was
adjourning, often at daybreak after an
all night session That custom was
putting the cart before the horse, and
is resulted in the convention often ad-
journing with a bad taste i'm the
mouth. After every convention there
was loud criticism of the folly of an
all night session and a universal de-
mand for a reform that would secure
a consideration of the platform first
But after two years had passed the
matter would seem to be forgotten and
the old all night session would be re-
viewed
At the last meeting of the State
Executive Committee, as a suggestion
of how to remedy the evil of all night
sessions and scant consideration of the
platform, the following resolution was
unanimously adopted:
Resolved, That it is the sense of
the Democratic executive committee
that the order of business in the next
State Convention be as follows:
1. Organization.
2. Adoption of resolutions and plat
form.
8. Election of delegates to the Ma
tional Convention.
4. Nomination of candidates.
OF course this suggested order of
business does not bind the State Con-
vention /. 1t may adopt any order it
chooses, but the fact that the largest
meeting of the committee in recent
years unanimously recommended it
should make it worthy of the serious
consideration of the convention. 1t
may take little more time if the gu
bernatorial contest is long drawn out
but it will be time we'll employed. In
any event it is of far more importance
to the Democrats of the State to give
serious consideration to the platform of
principles than to a multitude of Sc
conding speeches, no matter how elo-
quent. Why not limit the speeches
and give more time to the consider
alton of the platform?
