He has ti spoken, and what does he propose? m He above all others was instrumental V in having this call made for the con- 3 veution, and all along has laid great ti stress upon the fact that, a!though the Democrats have hid control of the se State Government for a number of 01 years, they have never done anything m towards settling th3 suffragc. Ie de- y manded a convention, talked about the n< organic law in the most profuse style, K abused the old '"Radical Rag" which has been banging over as since 1868, V1 and declare -that it was time f.>r the v4 Democrats to settle the "ne.aro que- st tion," His ple:& for a Constitutional Convention was heard by the people, T and a conventi - has .beei lled "to settle the sfftage question."

He called i the people to consider the great 2portance and the far-reaching con quences of the momentous question fore them. We do not attempt to give a verba mu report, but this is the general drift Mr. Elliott's remarks. His speech as wise, conservative, forcible and mely, having great effect upon the eeting. In conclusion he placed in )mination Mr. G. W. Ragsdale and 'aj. Thomas W. Brice, two Conserva ves, to be candidates at the primary. Mr. R. Y.
