times would seem. to. Indicate ,tla'
the Republican party is to be reuuit
ell. AS I have been mentioned il
q prominent position before THU

it. It embraced my ideas. It wa,
in keeping with the speeches ], have
made during the past few days, ant
I think the course Of this couven.
ton must be approved by every true
member of the Republican party
and harmony can not be obtainet

brought forward by the convention

wished to Spercipitate my election
and because do not wish to foist my:
self upon. the people, 1 have acted

I have accepted. the resolutions
offered by the committee These
resolutions leave it to any gentle.
man to choose for himself. While
