A few'years ago the conven tion of the 7th district was begging some Democrat to accept the nom ination and run against Dr. Felton, A number of Democrats refused. the nomination, and it was put on’ the shoulders of J. C. Clements to lead the party. He accepted the position, and fought the enemy of the Democratic party in {wo races, and gained a great victory for the Democracy of the 7th congression al district. J. €. Clements was one of the principal actors in digpelling Independent or Radicalism from the 7th district, and he should he nominated by acclamation and should receive the suppeort of every Democrat of this district. There are many of who-would-like-to-go fellows who would now accept the nomination gince Clements has cleared the way, but we think as they would not accepit the nomina tion when there was fighting to dn that they should wait till they love tho party better and are ‘willing to enter a heated contest.
