miuoiity in each township might
have its proper representation iu the
county donventious. The committee,
aiter coosultinb? the matter, deci
dccl toleave it to each township to
act as ic mighi deeni best. So im
pressed are we with the importance
of hayiug the minority properly rep
resbitVed, and so anxious are we for
harmony in our next convention, that
we take the liberty of suggesting a
plan that has recently been adopted
in Mecklenburg county, and is oroba-

committee of this (Centre) township
have lecommended it for adoption at

spectfully suggest that all the town
ships try it this year and 'see how it
works. The following is the plan,
as published iu the Charlotte Chron
