THE NEWS AND HEIALD. WINNSORO, B. C. THUMDA, A1,r 1, i 1880. We WRNA NX PAY KS, RDITom. I. T. MNANOJD&O ANW1ATS EDIm. The State Convention. The cal of the State Executive Conlmltice for a convention In Junle as ovoked considerable discussion. Among tle exchanges received at this offie thus far, the-Aews and Courier, the urniweil People anld tle Kershaw. Gazette favor a nomination of State oflizers inl Juno. The papers in the tupper selioi of the State, so far as lieard froiml, oppose tihe Ileasure, the o'jection generally being that tle cuapaign would be too long and ex pelnsive, and1( thle no011lnationls premall-! ture, as beig Imlade in advanee of the N.ttionial platform. It is a m1atteor of regret that some of the papers have been intemperate inl their remarks. The Edgefleld Advc tiser sligilatizes the call as without preerdent, ad perhaps a usurpation and abise of power not (lelegatte(I to the Coimmitee. The call is, inl our Opinion, poorly supported by prece deit, but. we Callot -eo how it iR a usurpation of power. The Coimittee is entrusted with the dty of' calling a coivenl(ion, and. its tle consititutioni is silent on tle poinlt it wolkd Iv" a right to opeii the caminti-.i oil the f'hst of Janua11try it' it shotild see fit, to do so. Ot' the right we thinik thiere ennu be no questioni. The expedienev is a diffe-r. eit thing. Again, the Abl)hv%;le, .leditcn holds the t1niteible posli!m "Ima i conlveltionl shouhl not he calb-d f-iluse uinalnmousq*cnnto Vry memb er of th SLtte Cani: .

As this wotld lbe b.0t a thin! disguised inpendent, miloveeownt we will not (iscuss it as a possible Demo cratic measure. On tie other hand, the .Vews and CJourier' Is luotunoate In applying tI.e ep-lihets 'hlysterical" and ''habitulal revilers" to some of those who depre cate the act loll of the State Con1uittec. lu1stead of prefixing tle vague specifl cation "some", it shoul( have indicat ed more clearly those to whom i!s Atrictures apply. No g-ool call possi Ily come of heated worils in the pres ent cllergelcy. Tihe State Comimlittee has gottell the pprty tito wat prois es to be a %ry unlpleasant, if' not dani ger'ous, amnari, and the ultmost patience andt forbearance are requIisite to a sue cessfiul biridging of the chasm. - - While not denlying _tlIn. C'mwiliittee the right to mfi-.Q466call, we muhst ex ~c bess2e,ef thagt it wa a. rv blunder. We have car'eflily3 consider ed the ar'gLiuments of thie advocates of the mleasur'e, and1( they have no: ch'anged our 0opinion1 iln tile least. As to prlecedenOit, the exampile of' the State of Illinois is cited during the -present year. Unlfortunately (.he Democr'ats have not carried1 IhlloIs ini n age, and have no0 expectationis of' dolig so in all age to conme. It mat ters nlot how their tinminlation is made. But We ventureo to say that the nom11i nation of a State ticket by a domninat party, or' eveni ini a douibtfiul State, ill advance of the Presidential niomuinau tion is without any respectable p)rece dent. SouthI Carolina is the last plate In thie wvorld to introd1uce an inntova tion. Thle Niews and Courier ini an1 sawer to tile objection that thie maIhsses have no(t conisidered the (quest ion of' canldidIates, atssumles thant a man whol( Is waiting to colme out in July would be defeated in August. as wvell as in Junie. This is at violent supposition ini those ditys of' dartk horses. The p100 pIe sometimes get tir'ed of a standing ciandidate and go with a r'ush for a1 new muan. Again, the .News and C.ourier apparently assumeIIs that thie governiorhip is the only7 (illee ini queLs tion. While this~ ra1ce has pre'tty genl erially sett(( ldowni to two mniia, the other' oflices have not been muentionied. As hafs been wvell saidl, new1~ isisues mayv spring up lin the camipa ign requiirinhg diflXerent candidates. lInd thle tahv C onvenition ill 1876 niomiiinated ni canii daite for governaor, who wo hIluzhave been the nman? Such an upheaval is - not likely to occurt this year, buti it is sat'er to -take no risks, especially' as an "ear'ly lmniinationi is so u tter'ly' unealled . for. It is a strItnge fact, that1 as til as * we-know, 1no onhas yii~et. told the pubh lie why the niominiation should hi e rpado In Junie. Thle algrumen1 nieed is that "It will do no harm," which pui * the mneastare on thie defen~sive at the ver'y beginnintg. Again, every one feels (lhat (lie par ty Is ntudor a strauin niow, anid flhat the -gr'eatest pr'udlece anid wisdomi ar'e requisite to -inisure harmnony. Why~ thou threw this apple of d1iscordt right inthe aps oflte people1, and give tedefeated candidates tho vciry op portuity they long for', of climing that tile popular voice was smnothered, and the will of the 'people forestalled ? A June netnination would not only give the time r'equiisiteo to organize a bolt, but would of Itself nlarnish the pretext. In the languag.e of Thurlow Weed1 "it would be a -.good enough - K tua.intil after the election." C os iery gofnt.vin8tr'uets ~ ,, _ ~9jpP9y*)gay, slesiy sane haf boiy io,*the ~s&lon win Udied eye shigil to the good of the part.y at large? Will there not, be a dilisrent COuItilig of IIoPes the night before, and Ii the conventiot itself a struggle between the fiends of the strongest candidate to force lhe nominiation aii the friends of the weaker to postpoil it ? In the war of factions the part.y will bo igiored. Even il (he County Conventions (lint are requested to inl struct, this saiue issue may, and very proba bly will, arise. From this staid point the call is unfortunate. It is Very%, scrioisly agied (tlitil the Convention is Stiprene, that tile call of; the Conmmittee is Milply advisory, and that had the Committee isIed a call fbi a Presidential noinilation only, the convention miright have taken '"snap Judginent" and gone on to 'noilinlate a State ticket; Eqy/, the Conmillfec Wgas right in inaking a call . for -State Ioiinat iois, ill order to put tlthe-partyI oi its guard.
