laid down by the State Central Committee
of which the results are given below. There
were some pretty lively contests, growing
generally out of motions one way or the
other regarding all endorsement of the
Southern Policy
In the Ninth District there was very
lively row. Gen. Beatty offered the follow
ing resolution. -,
"Resolved, That we hereby renew our
pledge of fidelity to the. principles of the
Republican party, as ehunciated in the plat
forms of its National Conventions and in
corporated i'll the later amendments to the
Ecderal Constitution; and, while recogniz-
Eng the existence of radical differences of
opinion respecting the southern policy of
the Administration. and as to the methods
adopted for the improvement of the civil
service, we nevertheless agree in ap earnest
desire for permanent pacifcation .of the
country, founded on liberty, equality and
justice for the attainment of civil service
based'on honesty, capacity and experience,
and in ffirning that the title of President
Hayes to the executive office is perfect, in
equity, in law, and in fact"
This was approved in warm manner by
z. G. Jones, who advocated a full and COM
