DISTRICT CONVENTION.

The decision Of the conference OF
democrats here last week To call a
democratic convention at Franklin on
June 4, to nominate candidate for
congress, will, in the Judgment OF
tLis journal, meet with popular ap-
proyal. The convention will be held
In the OLD democratic way and its
nominee will certainly BE the choice
Of a very considerable element Of the
democracy of the district 1t is OF
course unfortunate that there should
he any division among democrats on
the congressional issue this year and
it Is deplorable that the factjonal
strife between members Of that par-
y on state affairs 10 to be carried
into national elections, but the re-
sponsfbility for this is not to be laid
at the doors OF the democrats who
called the June convention.
The action OF the district congress
sfonal committee in calling snap
primary, naanifestly unfair to one of
the candidates, and injecting into
tnat primary the issues that have d.
yided the party in state elections, is
responsible for the existing schism
m the party Of the district Had the
committee followed precedent, called
the primary for the date of the Au-
gust election and made support # it's
nominee the qualification for voters,
there would have been no division
In the party. Hence the district com
nittee must share the full RESPONSE
bility OF having two democratic can
didates for congress In the district
Had the committee been moved by a
desire to serve the interests of the
whole party and not that of one can
didate we would have had a united
democracy In the seventh district
this year. People are no longer in
the mood to blindly follow party
bosses and yield blind obedience to
machine made DEGREES. The right of
revolution is inherent and whenever
committees cease to represent ell of
the party and become merely a ma
chine for factional oppression a re-
volt is TO be expected.
1t Is gratifying to note that there
are democrats In both factions OF the
party who are unwilling to carry
their warfare over state issues into
the national councils of the party.
These democrats, some Of them reg
uIsr' and some Of them 'fndepend-
ent, realize that state affairs have
no proper place In an election for
congress; that men may disagree
about purely local matters and ct the
sane time yield an equal allegiance
TO their national party. Every sign
points to democratic victory in the
nation thts year and he is indeed a
poor democrat, who for a brief per-
sonal or fractional advantage, is un-
Wiling to contribute to that much de-
sired end.
