KEsoLUTIoNs-BAsIso or REPRESENTATION.
Dr. J. H Vincent, of Chagrin Falls, offered
the following resolution:
ResOlued, That six Delegates from each Town
ship and W ard shall continue TO be, as has here
tofOre been, the representation in our County
Nominating Conventions.
S o. Grswold, Esq, of Cleveland, moved TO
strike out six and insert four. Question divi-
ded, motion to strike out lost
S. o. GriswOId, Esq, of Cleveland, moved to
amend the resolution offered by DR.. Vincent
by aGding we consider it Republican that
100 votes in one Ward or Township should not
have any more voice in nomination of candi-
dates than 500 votes in another Ward OF Town
ship"
Pending the question, the President read the
following communication, which he had been
requested to present to the Convention:
To the Chairman Of the Republican COnveRfiOn
for Cuyah0ga County, 10 be held September 4,
1858.
SIR: At meeting Of the Republican Central
Committee for said comfy, held July 3, 1858,
present Messrs. wv Palmer, 5. o. Griswold, NJ
\. Walwo-th, 4. Il Comstock, G. S. Clapp, G.
T. Barnum and VIM Slade, Jr, it was on mo-
ton
Resolred, That in the opinion Of this Commit
tee, the most equitable mode of arriving at the
wishes Of a majority of the Republicans Of this
county in County Convention, is by a delegation
based upon the Republican vote in each Town
ship and Ward; but inasmuch as questions in
reference TO the expediency of the change may
arise, therefore further
Resolred, That the next County Convention
be called upUu the same basis rs heretofore, but
the Chairman of this Committee is requested TO |
transmit to its presiding officer these Resolu- |
tons with request that they be laid before the
Convention for such action as It may seem prop |
sr and just.
