In A PECULIAR PREDICAMENT.

The local democrats to be in something dem-
ma Ihey can hardly advocate the election of
ticket anti Mormon platform And yet they will not
likely lay down entirely county ticket.
1t has been suggested that they convention
dose Parker and Davis repudate the Lewiston PLATFORM
and nominate county ticket county platform But
to do this and the democrat will put county
nominees under the regular state ticket and thus
certain defeat.
better plan might be for the central committee to call
regular primaries and convention and let those only
advocate the Lewiston ticket and it's platform part
nominate ticket and adjourn. Then those democrats who
opposed TO the anti Mormon platform, meet in
convention nominate 'Independent ticket, on a
platform dealing with county affairs only
Then there is another way, and that is pass up
conventions and primaries entirely If there any cand
dates who desire to contest with the republican nominees
they can be placed on the ticket by petition.
It's uptothe democratic central committee decide
what is best to do.
