Personally we do not think it would be wise for the Democratic party of Alabama "in convention assembled" to nominate CoL Oates for Governor While his record is a clean, and no doubt an honest one, it does not harmonize in every particular with the -doctrine of the Chicago platform, which in our o- pmion is justly standard of moderns democracy;" That this platform sets forth in no uncertain terms the demand of the masses is evidenced by the result of the last presidential election and as the people have been fooled and monkeyed with so much they will be slow to take men about which there is any doubt as to where they are "at" There is a large elementof this kind in our beloved state who have not "kept the faith" and are still bent on "seeking relief" outside the party unless it throws a strong er determination to drop such lead ers as have records of repudiating platform pledges, even in a small way, and put forth men who are 1 true and tried," men who are known to stand with equal firmness upon every plank of our national platform. we have faith and hope that our delegates- may go into convention with a full knowledge as to the will of their people and an honest desire to. act accordingly, Detroit, Miss Michael Carpenter, a beau tiful and accomplished young lady of Guin, has been spending a few days with Hamilton mends.
