Adopted.
The Committee also reported back for |
adoption the resolution introduced by l.. A.
Harris in the forenoon, which was unani-
mously adopted.
Many of the delegates at this point loft for |
home. L. D. Campbell then introduced the |
following resolution on his own account:
Resolpea, That the State Central and Ex-
ecutive Committe be instructed TO meet in
the city of Cincinnati on the first Tuesday
in September next to consider the propriety
of calling State Convention to nominate L
State ticket.
The resolution originally proposed the i'm
mediate nomination of a state ticket, but
after much bitter and excited discussion, It
was amended as above and unanimously
adopted
Col. Connell opposed the original resolu-
ton on the ground that it was sprung upon
the convention after many of the delegates
had gone home.
Joseph Geiger believed tina. the Philadel-
phia Convention would constitute the ruling
power of the nation. They were not going
there to make fzzle- The conservative
Republicans were called co-workers with
the Copperheads because they stood by the
President and not by a corrupt Congress. If
nothing but abuse could be found in the Re-
publican ranks and from the Democratic
party, he was in favor of third party His
speech was in favor of the immediate norni-
nation of State ticket. It was bitter and
loudly denunciatery ofthe Cleveland LEADKE
and the Cincinnati Gazette.
J.H. Anderson, of the Eighth District, late
U. s. Consul at Hamburg, introduced reso-
ton, which was adopted, empowering the
Ohio delegation, after its arrival in Phila-
delphia, to fill vacancies.
The Convention then ieajourned at six
o'clock.
