held here for many years. Ex-senator Hen
drCkS, who positively declined yesterday, has It
is understood now, at the earnest solicitation of
the liberal republicans and democrats, consented

cations are that the convention will endorse the
Cincinnati convention, and then none but Gree

gresS from the state at large.

continues with increasing spirit and excite
ment, all influential republicans in the state
being more or less engaged in it, PatterSon's
friends are confident that he will receive the
nomination; and, on the other hand, Rollins

The undersigned, colored physicians and reg

lauon excluding us from the medical societies
on account of our race and color. As colored

DEs MONIES, Ia, June 1.-THE democratic
state convention TO select delegates to the Bati-
more convention met here this morning, and
after e1ecting temporary organization, took Il
recess till P. NJ. On reassembling, b. B. Rich
ards was elected permanent president. The fol-
lowing resolutions were presented by the COM
mlttee on resolutions, and were unanimously
adopted;
Resolved, that the principles enuncated by the
late Cincinnati convention, taken in connection
with the letter of Horace Greeley accepting the
nomination of that convention, constitute plat
form on which all elements of opposition to the
present corrupt administration of the federal gov
ernment can stand
Resolved, that this convention instruct its dele.
gates to the Baltimore convention to vote and act
as unit on all questions,
The convention then proceeded to elect the
following named delegates: Chas. NJ. Mason,
Jno. p. Irish, NJ. NJ. Hall, and NJ F. Duncomb at
large. Judge Clagett moved the appointment of

man of the state central committee, stated that

TOPEKA KS, June 1.-THE democratic state
convention met here to-day, nearly every
county being represented. Wilson Shannon,
Sr., presided, and in his opening speech said,
that should the Baltimore convention make a
nomination of some good man, he would surely
be sacrificed and no advantage gained. He
counselled the party to unite with the friends of
reform and opponents Of Capitalization
and plumber Mark j. Parrott cordially
inv tfaI g,f Il
the supporters of Greeley. The first reso-
luton declares that the paramount duty of every
citizen is devotion and obedience to the cOnsti-
tuition and laws of the republic; the second,
that political organizations are useful and bene-
hclal only when their purpose and action demon
strate that love of country controls their cOun
ellis and dictate their policy. But when lawIess
ambition, imbecility, corruption and man wOr-
ship dominate party, it is the duty of all citi-
zens, without regard to previous political aftili-
ations, and lorgetlul OF past and buried differ
ences to join their hands and hearts in an effort
to crush such party and drive its leaders from
power.
Third-Believing the present chief executive
and nominee of the republican party for re-
election is utterly untitled for that high position,
we hold that his administration stands alone in
the history of the nation for shameless ig-
norance, nepotism and gift taking; for reckless
disregard of law, and lorgetfuness of the an
cient honor of the republic; for utter want of
that dignity and craftsmanship that should
characterize the executive Of the government of
the first republic on earth, and that his contnu-
ance in power would degrade the nation and be
dangerous TO the liberties of the people. And
so believing we are willing to join with all good
citizens in the pending campaign in an effort to
drive him from his place.
Fourth--As this can, in our Judgment, be
most surely accomplished by accepting and sup.
porting the platform of the candidates of The
Cincinnati convention, our delegates to the ma
tional council of the party should be instructed
to oppose the nomination Of ticket by that
council, and to favor the endorsement of the
Cincinnati nominees and platform.
The resolutions were carried unanimously,
and with shout. The following delegates 10
Baltimore were elected: X. b. Morris, G. W.
Hewlett, 7. J. Fenton, w. L. Wagstaf, John
Martin, G. b. Wood, Isaac Sharp, T. W. Water
son, and p. i. beware.
