How the Peoples Convention - 70 DC
Called
In the Leader of Tuesday evening we rec
commended that the Republican Executive
Committee invite influential loyal Democrats
to ioin them in a call for Peoples Union
Convention. The Columbus Fact, of yester-
day, which, from Its central location, is pre-
snmed to have facilities for knowing the in
tentions of the Committee, says:
ssThe call fora Peoples Union Convention
will be made within few days, not by the
Republican Committee, as the Statesman so
anxiously hopes, nor by any other political
committee, but by an array OF patriotic
names that viii bring terror to the ranks Of
the organized rebels. The people see, more
plainly than ever, since the holding of the
Convention of the bogus Democrats and the
adoption of their treacherous resolutions,
that the only hope of the Union is in Union.
All loyal men have determined to be of one
mind until the war is over. True Republi-
cans. true Demo Gratis, and true Americans, all
unite to perform duty to our country, and
that duty rises above all party consideia-
tons"
