are ten precincts that Judge Faulkner
shonld receive 1910 votes, but that he
failed to receive majority OF all the
votes cast at any one precinct; that at
the ten precints Mr.. Green received
zoo votes, Mr.. Beckwith 43o and Mr.
Moore AGO. the three candidates ag-
gregating 1860. what would be the
result under these circumstances!
Under the Jefferson rule, although
Judge Faulkner had received $40
votes more than Mr.. Green, the II
delegates to the Judicia. Conversion
would he named by Mr.. Green.
Did rot the executive Committee Of
Jefferson County adopt this rule with
out full appreciation of its Injustice
Can We preserve that harmony and
unity essential to party succe and
growth, where such gross and glar-
ing determinations are made between
candidates from different counlies,
butwho must look Tor personal and
party success, in the nomination and
election, 10 the whole judicial dis
! ttict. Does It not violate every prln-
ciple under our constitutional system
by which a citizen is placed in offices
OF honor and trust! Shall the voice
of a plurality OF the voters, yea, --
even a majority under the terms OF
tais call. be stihsd by this new prin-
ciple inaugurated Tor the first time in
the nomination OF candidates, and a
minsrity candidate be imposed upon
the district?
We do not believe that when the
leaders Of the democracy of Jefferson
understand the effect Of their call that
they will stand sporsor Tor this novel
and vicious method Of noniu ting
candidates. If they do there is but
one way that the Individual members
OF the party can express their con-
!
demnation of the principle that seeks
to bind them to minority candidate
and that is by casting thei- votes for
Judge faulkner and thus giving to
him majority at the several precincts
over the combined vote of the three
Jefferson candidates.
1t will be further noticed under this
call of the Jefferson Committee that
should Judge Faulkner carry one or
two precincts in the County and,
throughout the entire County carry
majority OF all the votes polled,
against the combined vote Of the
thee Jefferson candidates, that he
could only name the delegates to
which the one or two precincts, which
he carried, were entitled, and his JET
ferson opponent, minority candidate
would be entitled to name all the
other delegates to represent said
County in the Convention.
With this action by the Jefferson
Committee fully known ard under
stood by the executive Committee of
this County at its meeting he'd
Saturday, is il not matter OF con-
graduation by the democracy OF the
entire district, that it did not permit
its feeling of indignation to warp Its
Judgment, aud that it did not retsliate
in providing plan by which the
sentiment of the democracy of Ber-
kelley was to express its chosce be-
tween all these candidates. Part
fealty to true democra ic principles
and the sentiment of fairness which
controlled the committee caused it tc
adopt the plan which had heretofore
tor so many years been approved by
the democracy of Jefferson From
