have crept into the party and which threatens
it with imminent danger; hope for great thing
from the convention, the people look to it and hope
for good to come out of it. If those who go into the
convention act in good faith, we know that beneficial
results will follow but if frc-eaters, disunionsts
and sectionalists predominant the conservative
element, we predict nothing but the most positive
danger to the ticket, if not actual defeat Discor-

question of policy reconced and adjusted, and the
wishes of the people be respected. Let the members
of the convention do these things AMI it will be
amusing as well MS edifying, to see some Runnels'
men take down. Judge Reagan's bolus in fact swal-
low at one gulph both Reagan and Runnels, las good
us show.
