A Convention ?s?aib!: stitmiou is ca'jr the people flrPiffibpurpose fbr which it assembles. * * * ii u iruu id? ii7gwwHin cttnooi amit ine t'oo vent ion, but ir !-5 people eleot then for the purpose of doing * specific act or duty pointed out by the Aot of the Legislature, the Aot would define their powers; for the people eloct In reference to that and nothing else." 80 In the tame case Ohanoollor Harper's opinion was: v "To oonolude that the people intended to v . invett the Convention with their authority for any other purpose but the purpose specified would be plaiu usurpation of the power of the people." It will be seen that the opinion of the great parliamentarian of to-day was on allfonre with the opinions of two of lite greatest Judges who over s?t ou tiny Ainerioan bench. Let un see it' we can get the very keynote of all .these opinions. Is U the underlying principle incnnoafedM^BB 1 11 1 oar CoQHttljbiowe^-Fcdortil I I tho people ?10 nw are sovereign, jg ^ part with tliis sovereignty or the cx^K 1 ^^nm^tallllfKL puts it Though fAyhe Mot of a LMslaturjl& itself cannot limit phwont of Q^ontrinftion, tho o'eotion of *" the peopll unde|*hnJjjMraioiiig Aot accepts 1 the restraints of.lhaMH and Jience defines the powers it <{k> Convention; and hence, too, cHMfceilorHarpcr's holding 1 b that for a convettioBo go belrond the speoilied purpose a p'aio usur- ' Nothing cm nothing more 4 complete. It is PW^etgnty of ihe peo- 1 pie itself that binds n Convention to the 1 * peel fled purposes of its call. c Now, substituting the members of a [tarty 1 for the pooplc, we sec the whole power of 4 the par'y rests in the individual members 1 thereof. And when they choose delegates aider a call for n specified purpose it is the i Specified purpose under whioli they act and i1 accept as their own limitation atul qualifier ' tion which rest ruins the chosen Contention, t and not the mere cinature or instrument for P making the oall, whether it bo a legislature ' or an executive coaunitten. n Against all tliii wo see the Charleston I World quo'cs the opinion of the late Gen. " James Conner an<l nisi that of the Into Ctpt. F. W. Dawson. We sliall cont :nt ourselves T with quoting tlio opinion of Gen. Conner, na ? it is quite evident the opinion of the brilliant ti editor would harlly be accept e I on a qiios* 1 lien of law. t General Conner is quoted assaying: f ' Some of the Counties had ncud one < way and sonic another, and it was n^no'utely necessary that there i^Tid be a deoiaion I and dotcrmiuat:on of tli^vuestion, and who o is to doeide it T Is it n<? this Convention, t which is the Dcmocr itio pa-ty of tlWj Stitc < of^huti^C^jl i iviTCuiUiicV^^r < forth t ^^^^^^^KUio^inguxootGiuibytdiejadtuiriit f of thkctaimoratio ptrty iu Omveutiku a?- * SJmhled ?" ' With the greatest respect fur the dc.cued it will be admitted by all that his opinions > would hardly weigh with those of O'Neall and Harper or those of John G. Carlisle. Dut it will be seen after a'l that the oasc ' Gen. Conner was dealing with was an entirely different one from that before us. As he said, some of the Counties had instructed one way and some another, and it woe ntett- ? t try to determine what course was to be rurMie<l under llioso discrepant instructions. 1 n the present case all have acted under one qualifying call fur a Convention, limited by the call to a specified purpose, and iliero were no instructions from the people below invading tbat purpose of limitation. Hut upoa first principles we cannot agree to the opinion attributed to Oen. Conner, that the Convention is the Democratic party of South 1 Carolina. The people of the party, and they a one a re the party, an 1 any other d ctriue is uusouml in law and undemo- i cratio In princlplo. Nor with Senator Carlisle's opiuiou before uf and the doctrine of our court* as to tbc power of Conventions, can we accept, a decision of a Convention egu-nsl tlie power vested in it by the people or beyond that power as conclusive and binding . In such owe there is nulling binding on tbe people and milling binding on any portion of tkeffl. Any other doctrine leads to political Usurpation of the people's own inalienable tights. Ami these rights no less appertain to a minority than a majority. It is quite a different thing as to how far it is wise and proper for a minority of a Convention to submit under protest, to what it feels convinced to be unauthorixid, for the sake of the good of the nartv and that of societv.?(Stlumhia R*k?r.

To tho Demoeraoy of South Carolina > W e, iht undersigned, utlt^tt to from of the State Kxecutive Committoo. "for the solo and exclusive purpose of determining whether do'egates to the State Nominating Con tint ion to be held en the 10th day of September, or thereafter, should bo elo ted by primary election, to be held on a certain day throughout the State, and for no other purpoHo whatsoever." The Convention, after its organise1 ion, in. stead of tmnsadtiug tiie business for whieh it had bo*n summoned, proceeded to take action lrok ng to the adoption of a now constitution for the party in this State, making many important changes in that instrument Against ibis aoiion wo made such erguraent as wan possible in ilie limited time allowed for debate by lite majority of the Convention. We pointed cut that under the general rules of party government, as laid down by so distinguished a parliamentarian aa the lion. J. G. Carli^'o, la'o Speaker of the House of Repressnativrs of tlio United States, "when a convention In caU^U fur a special purpose, its authority la nipweartly limited J?y the }?ra>8 of the oall itself;" that "it can bave po general authority to bind the party by its oiion on any o'lior subject, for the obvious easou tlint its members are simply delegated o do a particular thing." We pointed out tl at this general tule as o party (Conventions was in exact acoorlanco with the decisions of our State Courts in the anamgnus o?sc of the powers of a "VinvniilInr, i-\f ihn nci.lo millail ?" Act of tko Legislature for a specific purpose. In tho celebrated cnao of McCrady, vs. Hunt, decided by the Court of Appeals, Judge O'Nonlo used the following language : A Convention os'crob'ing under the Cons iution is only the people for tbe purposes por wbloh it assembler ;nnl if tlicy exceed* hose purposes, their act is void unless it is lubmitted to tho people and nffirmcd by hetu. It is true the legislature cannot imit the Convent'on, but if the people cleot hem for tho purpose of doing n rflwo act ir duty pointed out by tho Act of t^K$aMdaure, tho Act wou'd define their he people elect in rcfcence to tl^t and * loth'ng else." . m Judge David Johnson concutred in tvW)*pin on, aud Chancellor Harper, in h!s opinion isrs these words : "Certainly the Convention rss not the people for any other purpose hau that for wheik the people voted and dclcated them. To conclude that the people inended to invest the Convention wiih their nth rity for any-otl.or purpose than the ufpose specified would be plain usurpation f the power wf the pc-q?el. We Mated ttacsn views ful y. and appealed ritli all the earnettne*s in our power to the najority, as fell ?w Deinccrni-, not to force is into a position where wo would he compiled, ill view of the limited authority conerred upon tt* by our constituents, to retain from partToipyipa in the further proceedings of tbe convention.
