THE STATE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE.
A reporter of the Constitution called
upon, Col. Toni Hardeman, chairman of
the estate Central Committee of the
Democratic party of this State. The
reporter's mission was to learn the rea
sons of the Executive Committee fir
taking the action which is bei lg so se
verely criticized in other portions State.
Mr. ’Hardeman very kindly furnished
'us with /he desired dots.
TH'e 'which was a I n<l
which has caused tne vials ot wrath to
be uncorked, rea ls as follows :
“Resol veil, Hi at a convent ion n' Con
gressional Districts be called by the Ex
ecutive Committee of each D stri ct on
Wednesday, the 2>lh day of April, at
such places as each District Couiiaittee
shall select, to nominate two alternates
each to the Nati nal Democratic Con
vention, and that said District Conven
tions nominate lour unaius as delegates
at large ; and if the said District Con
vestion* shall fail to agree in the selec
lion of the same lour delegates at large,
they shall empower the State Democratic
Executive Committee to select from the
nninro rr<Tfffln:lted rot IT delegates ror me
State at large fro u all the naulek deiig
hated.”
Col. Hardeman explains the abovo
resolution by calling attention to the fact
that had a Convention been called to
select the district delegates, the proba
bility stood that the people would be
cAUed upoh to attend throe Conventions
‘during the year.
in these hard times this was not deem
ed advisable an 1 as this was the lea >t
important a flair, it was delegated to the
District Conventions, When in .State
Convention the district delegates a’ways
present the names of their delegates and
alternates, bo that by duing this at home
the matter of economy is gained.
The delegates' at large are to lie voted
cn by the districts and the Executive
Committee, in case none ot the names
are elected by cliar majorities will name
the tour receiving the highest votes, and
they will be the delegates. This is no
innovation and is fair an I harmless.
TIIK NATIONAL COMMITTEE.
Gen. Lawton was chosen to fill the
Va ancy from Georgia in the Xit tonal
Committee, and will attend its meetings.
Gen. Gordon was na nod bscause an
emergency might arisa needi ig action
when Gen. Lawton was not present.
There was no design in it. It was as

in tin interests of economy al l efficient
Work in tile campaign. Constitution.
It HSN SHALL IT BE?
Th 1 tnl'nwin; is the text of the Con
vention bill passed by the II rue on last
Saturday:
Section. 1. Be it enacted by the Sen
ate and House ot Representatives ot the
State ot Georgia, and it is heroby enact
ed by authority of the Same. That, ini
mediately after the passage ot this Bill,
his Excellency the Governoe lie, and he
is hereby, authorised and required to Is
sue his proclamation, ordering an elec
tion to b• held in eaob county in this
State on tbe first Monday in January,
1877, for delegates to a Convention ot
the peop’e of Georgia, to convene at the
Ciq col, in the city ot At'unta, on tnw
first Wednesday in March 1877 tor the
l urpose ot revising the Ccns.ituUon of
said State.
Sturiox 2 Bj it f irthar enacted, that

in the aame manner and at the same
places as elections tor members ot the
General Assembly are held in this State,
an 1 the returns of said election shall be

District in this State,' atf the districts
ate uow arranged, shall constitute an e
lection district, from which delegates
of said toiveuliou shall be chosen.
1 We are in favor o! a Convention, but
I we are in favor of the question of *
Convention or no Convention'' being
submit'ed to the |<eop!e, lor their ratifi*
.ca'ionor rejection. If the people of
1 1ho Slate can live aider existing laws,
we can. We are ia favor of a “Conven
tion," but we want this Legislature to
call it within its own time, and not as
this bill allows infringe on the time and
. jurisdiction of the Legislature, which is
Ito bo elected in October next. If we
are going to have reform and retrench
ment, now.ia'theVme, now t>ef<sie an
: other deal of the cards.
The leaders of the House have, they
imagine, shown a great amount of wis
dom and foresight in'Tho disposition ot
the “Convention question." Hut you
will find gentleme;..ti's “too thin.” It
wont pan out when jour constituents
begin to wa ll out the ore that you think
you have brought to the surface. You
must have the manhood to meet this ah
important question. Now is your time,
and while you are in office, not shift it
off on your successors. The next week
or the next year will not do; now or
never, so far as you are concerned. You
can’t make Governors, Congressmen,
Senators, Legislators, dec. die. of your
selves by dodging this “Convention
question." The people can t lie fooled
in that way. You must “stand to the
rack, fodder or no fodder.”
We hope the .Senate will cither kill
the bill as it now stands, or amend it, so
as to rclei the question of “Convention
or no Convention” to the people.
Let the people have a change, we can
trust them. So ought you.

SPIRIT OF TIIE GEORGIA PRE?S.
The Atlanta papers made a li ir 1
tight against the Convention bill. The
Herald seemed to tear Judge James
Johnson as a candidate for Governor,

might be elected a delegate to the Con

The Rome Courier thinks murders

The Augusta Chronicle believes in

The people of Georgia never ma le it.
It was made by poor, ignorant savages,

For these and other reasons, - ' the

The Covington Star is in favor of
amending the present Convention Bill
so as to bring on the election of dele
gates in July and boll the Convention
in August of the present year. Our
contemporary has hit the nail oti the
head, and we endorse him fully.
THE CONVENTION BILL.
The following editorial from tbe At
lanta Herald, of yesterday is so much to
tbe point that we publish it entire :
Tlie Legislature has passed a bill call
ing a convention to meet in the city of
Atlanta on the first Wednesday tn
March, the election to be held for 198
delegates on the first Wednesday in Jan
uary. Before tlie election of delegates
♦o tins convention an entirely new Leg
islature will have been elected and be
fore the convention will meet, this Leg
islature will have concluded its labors
and adjourned. A Governor will have
been elected and inaugurated and all ot
his appointments made! All this will
happen under the present constitution.
The legislature, we in
tend- to remedy this by a resolut on de
claring that all appointments. made by
flie Governor shall hold their office for
the term prescribed by the Constitution
to be framed by ti e ConvebtlOti
whjch will assemble id March.
Just here we apprehend there will be
trouble. Can the L'egislture by a mere
resolution prescribe and iff re tit tenures from
those under which these officers are
el acted 1 Can a resolution of the Leg
islature repeal a law ot the Legislature?
Under the present Constitution and laws
ot the State a Governor is elected to
serve for four years. Suppose tbe Con
vention shall undertake to shorten this
term and the Governor refuses to*vacate
What process can be resorted to to com
pel him?
It we remember correctly, this very
question it was, which gave riso to ail
the trouble ia Arkansas*, between the
rival Governors, aud we make the sug
gestion this morning in order that the
Semt may take the matter into consid
eration, and it there is any force ia them
provide a remedy
