AUGUSTA, Me-, August S.-But few dele
gates have yet arrived, but large number
OF neWspaper-men are here. The forthcom-
ing Republican State Convention seeas TO
excite more than local interest. Leading
men who will shape the course OF the
proceedings arc here. and there Is no doubt
that majority Of them are opposed
TO passing a resolution endorsing the Ma
tional Administration. The question is
Quite freely discussed, and for the sake OF
harmony those opposed to the policy would
probably compromise by having no resolu-
ton on national affairs. Whether this will
be accepted by the Administration men call
not now be stated, but indications are that
it will not. t-..
Ex-Governor Chamberlain, OF Maine, is
here as a delegate, and it is understood
will be satisfied with nothing short OF a
square endorsement OF the Presidents
policy. He will have strong followers.
The State Committee had full attendance
at their meeting this evening, and selected
officers for preliminary organization OF the
Convention. . .a,.
The temporary chairman is Hon. Josiah
Drummond. OF Portland. Secretaries
