Harrisburg convention and carried out by the knowing
ones of the party. 1t was fraud inasmuch as the
principles and purposes of the man into whose hands
the people called upon to conide the destines OF
their republic, kept steadily and carefully con-

the real design of the party asten upon the peo

only be done by false issue, and in carrying out this

to the time OF the President 8 death.
