part in
THE REPUBLICAN CONVENTION
that assembled at jefferson city on washing
tons birthday. There were six hundred and
twenty-five delegates, representing every
county In the State, and for numbers and re-
speciality It surpassed any convention ever
held In tho State OF Missouri. Citizens, not
delegates, from every part Of the State were
10 attendance to give aid and comfort to the
great cause Of freedom aud union, and the
utmost harmony prevailed In the ranks Of
the party.
TINE REGULAR AND LIBERAL WINGS
Of the Republican party Topped In unison
and concord, producing q force and onthu-
slasm that will go marching on like the soul
Of John Brown. The bitter feeling that re-
suited In the bolt" Of 1870 was buried In the
wild shouts for harmony and Grant, and
each wing OF tue party competed with the
forced; everything was granted.
THE MOST PROMINENT MEN
OF tho Liberal bolt were In the convention as
delegates, and worked early and late for the
perfect unity Of the Republican party and
the success Of its Presidential nominee at
Philadelphla. Hero arc few Of the repre-
sentative Liberals and you can judge for
yourself whether Grosyenor's broom Con-
vention had anything In II that was not re-
belllous, Democratic, and illlberal.
Here arc the Liberals Il. o. Stanard, lato
Lieut.. Governor; J. G. Orrick, eN-Speaker Mis-
sourl Legislature; Colonel d. A. Thompson,
Hon. William Bishop, Hon. ID. ?. Dyer, Hon.
j. l.. Blttengcr, Hon. B. d. Calhoun, and the
names OF Hon. John b. Henderson and @. A.
Finkelnburg appear In the list OF delegates 10
the National Convention. The fact Of the mat
ter Is Just this; the Republicans who took the
LIBERAL Schultz
In 1870 In this State arc thoroughly sick Of
their action In the premises, so far as II has
contributed to the triumph Of the Democratic
party, and while their action upon the ques-
lion of rebel enfranchlsoment may have been
right, they never intended TO sell out to the
Democratic party and walk into the camp Of
treason under the leadership OF Brown, Gros-
yenor and Schurz. The true Liberals never
have and never will be caught In the trap set
by this set by this last named trio Of traitors,
who care no more for the interest OF their
party or county than did Benedict Arnold
when he tried to sell his native land for a
purse OF English gold. The same purse, no
doubt, still bangles In view Of GrosyenOr,
who dances according to the ginglo OF the
guluoas.
But am wasting too many words and Too
much time upon Grosyenor, who has no per-
sonal standing or respect In the society OF
gentlemen, and who never had an impulse or
a motive outside of that aroused by an Itch
ing palm. We know him In Missouri as O
political shyster, whose pen can be purchased
Tor pound, and whose action is lmpelled by
treachery and ingrattude.
THE MOST NOTABLE FEATURE
Of the Republican convention was tho enthu
slasm that prevailed whenever the name o
Grant was mentioned. A dispatch from In
dlanapolls, stating that tho delegates from
that State TO Philadelphia were
INSTRUCTED To VOTE TOR GRANT,
brought the Missouri convention to Its feet
aud shouts Of Joy and hope rung through th,
capitol. While there may DO few Republl
cans In Missouri who prefer some other mat
than Grant, yet the great thinking masses 0
the party anxlOusly desire his denomination
and reelection, believing that the safety ant
prosperity Of tho nation depend upon hi
continuance for another term.
