change was not advisable. The time
for holding the convention was fixed
on the 20th OF May, only six mem-
bers voting for a later day, say the
middle Of July or the first Of July
There was not much debate on this
point. The chief discussion arose on
the question whore the convention

ed by Missouri Congressman, md
the advantages of Chicago were set

was that the convention ought TO be
held in a place whore the party is

this argument New York city ought
