Before the election pvas entered into
G. H. McMaster offered a resolution
that delegates.be instructed to oppose

tion excited some debate among the
members, but it was overiwhehpxingly
adopted..
T. W. Lauderdale offered the follow
ing resolution which was adopted:
Whkereaa, we have had for the past

A resolutlon by'. W. J. Johnson,
thanking Capt. Ii. A. Gaillard and G.
H. McMaster, Esq., chairman and vice
chairman for the most able; efficient
and faithful nianner in which they had
served the cdunty Democracy, was

That in the opinion of the convention
the nominatiqn of the officers of
county auditor, county treasurer, jury
commissioner, and supervisor of Reg
{stration be made to the Governor
through the primary of,. the Democras
cy..
This resolution elicted a very heated
discussion, and it seem'ed at times as
though the convention would get be
yond the control'of the chair. After
many calls to order a vote was taken
and the resolution adopted by a large
majority.
In the discussien of Mr. Gunnell's
resolutlop all speakers. on the subject
said that.there was not the least dissat
isfaction with the present incumbents,
but that it seemed to them right, that
the p)eople should select their own
officers entirely.
R. A. Meares offered the following
resolution which was adopted:
That Art IX'. of the constitration of

ducted under the rules and regniations
to be fixed by the county executive
committee.
The convention then adjourned sine
