To the Voters of North Carolina : ..
At a mooting of the Democratic Ex
e2uLiv r'u?!iniittre, held in thta city on
I tl Cvl in st.f it was revived that the next
S;atc t'onventitm fehould be held, in the
ci:y of lialeigh on the 18th day of May,,
at 11 o'clock a. m.
It will devolve 'on this Convention to
nominate Ciindidatea for Governor, Lieu
tenant Governor, Secretary of State, At
torney General, Auditor, Treasurer and
Superintendent of Public Instruction ; to
elect foyr delegates at larcje and four al
teru'ttfs to'tl:' National Democrat fe Con
veniiotobe held at Chicago Juno 23,
to noniiauto two candidates for
EU-'ctois at Large; to adopt a platform of
principles, and to transact each other
business nsinay jiroperly como beforo it.
In all eases where tlio Congressional
Conventions liave not been held previous
ly. 11. o .Megutesto this Convention from

Hon,
T!:"rt 1-ts been for some time a firm.y
root, ! ide-t . vQr- the jteople that some
y;'.e:.i s-houM l.o ad)ptedby which min
orities iii the various counties should
have their jiroportionato voice in the
State and District Conventions, and, in
deference to this fair find just sentiment,
the Committee, while realizing that it
had no power to add to or vary the "Plan
of Organization," as adopted by the last
State Convention, ami bind the people
to its obtervaee, unanimously recom
mended to all County Conventions the
following rule, and earnestly requests
that it be observed,
"In all County Conventions in which
delegates shall bo selected to attend any
State, Congressional. Judicial or other
Convention, a vote shall be taken in ac
cordanec with the plan of organization
as to the candidates whose names may
be presented to such County Convention
The delegates shall be selected from the
friends and supporters of each candidate
voted for in proportion to the number of
votes he shall receive, in such County
Convention, and no oilier instructions
shall be given. Provided that where
only one candidate is presented rffid vot
ed for at sitch County Convention it
shall bo lawful to instruct for such can-,
didatc."
It is urged that all county conventions
shall, at the tame time they select dele
gates to this convention, elect a county
committee to serve during tho coming
campaign. This action is essential to
perfect organization, and enables tho
Chairman of the State committee to at
once put himself in touch with the coun
ty chairmen.
All township and county conventions
should be held at such times and places
as w afford to each member of the par
ty an opportunity for full and fair 4is
ctgfeion. It is essential to success that
lanimosities should not be engendered
and dissension fostered,and no one
should be given even the semblancejof an
excuse for refusing to support the Demo
cratic party, the supremacy of widely is
so necessary to secure good government
and an honest administration of public
affairs.
To divide now is to turn over the
State to the enemy, Let us stand to--gether
as in the past and thus perpetuate
the reign of the Anglo-Saxon.
