This would make the campaign, probably, it couple of weeks longer than usual, but that would ho no drawback, as it will he an exceedingly lively one, and cou- sidcrahle time will be required for the various candid ites to set thoiu.olve3 and their views before the people; We do not wish to meddle with the movements of the democratic central committee, and only make these sug- gC4licin-iu.su public journalist for tlio people at. large. The suggestions will equally apply to the republican state and county central 'jomudUcus.
