THE CoNsTITUrIONAL CONVENTION

Contrary to expectation and against
the public pefare, the straight Republicans
of the Constitutional Convention held a
caucus a, Springfield on Saturday night,
and resolved to organize tse Convention on
strictly party grounds. This, though con
trary to the proprieties of the occasion, and
the hopes of the better part Of the people of
the State, is 10 perfect keeping with the
history of The Republican party, whoss speak.
ers insist on thrasting their politics forward
on all occasions--At church, in the social
circle, in Constitutional Conventions, in
courts of justice aud even at the eed side of
the dying and on funeral occasions Old
Grsnd.mama Oglesby was present, and is
said to have made a "s,rong speech" in
favor of a strictly partizau organization, and
to have declared that the people of the
state demand Republican constitution.
Milton Hay presided at the caucus, and
Joseph Medill of Chicago, and one Church
were put in nomination as candidates for
President of the Convention. Medill was
chosen by the caucus as its candidate by
vote Of 10 to IL. II 10 due TO Mr.. Medill to
say he was not present, and it is hoped that
he will do himself the credit to decline
partizan caucus nomination to preside over
q convention to which 10 he sent by non.
Par''~"n constituency to sssistip framing
constitution for his state.
1t is thus settled that 30 far as the straight
Republicans may have the strength to bring
about such result, we are to have, as the
result of the labors of the Constitutions
Convention, q constitution devised in n
party caucus room, and in the interest of a
party. The strength of the two parties,
however, is about equal, and, it is hoped
few respectable Republicans may be found
to unite with the Democrats to defeat any
partizan movement in that body.
We record with pleasure the fact that the
Democrats of the Convention have held no
caucus but hold themselves ready TO unite
with the independent members in in non.
partizan policy in the selection of officers
and doing the work Of the convention. Any
other course would entitle them to public
execrstion.
