National Republican. (Washington City (D.C.)) 1872-1888, 1873-07-18
AN IOWA RESOLUTION.

There Ia resolution in the platform Of the
recent Iowa Republican State convention
which Is so sound in theory and correct In
moral point Of view that II Is to be hoped
1t will be embodied In the declarations Of
similar bodies In other States, and lived up
to by the party everywhere. II Is as follows;
"To make an end to bad men forcing their
election by securing . party nomination, we
declare u the duty OF every Republican TO oppose
the election OF 4 bad and incompetent candl-
date, whether he be 4 candidate upon our own
or upon any other ticket"
This Is the only way In which the evils OF
the caucus system can be checked and
curbed. Nominations are too often obtained
in both parties by the most disrepu.ahlc
meaus-the corrupt use Of money, promises
OF place, patronage, and so forth, feeling
confident that when the nomination Is made
the party Is religiously bound to eloct the
candidate no matter how big q rascal or
how incompetent and unworthy he may be,
The sooner this practice is broken up the
better will II DO for all parties. The Iowa
Republicans, In pointing the way to so de-
sirable reform, have set an example which
we hope to see followed In the coming cleo
lions. The Republican party Is 80 strong
