A. resolution was adopted that the nominees
for Presidential electors of the StatehoUse Con-
yentIon be declared the nominees OF this body.
This excited some discussion on the ground
that it was possible that, alter endors.
ing those electors, they might Sell out
and leave the State at the mercy of the Demo.
Gratis. Judge Orr shared this distrust, but
believed that the StaIehouse electors would
not dare to 20 back on Grant. The danger
mlaht be met If need be by calling new con.
yention. He declared that no two men were
more In earnest In desiring the success OF this
movement than Grant and Wilson. II this
movement failed to secure the integrity of the
Republican party In national politics, II would
wholly fail In its purpose. Orr then an.
nounced that the business Of The convention
was closed, and delegate moved three cheers
for Grant and Wilson. Orr said 1t was not
necessary to put that question, and led off
himself with q huge howl for the Philadelphia
candidates. The convention then adjourned
sine die.
