pertaining to the government of this

Nothing will answer now but the
most heroic treatment. Our great

revolt against fraud and treason to
party, one who will not "croOk the

COLUMBIA, S. c., August 8.-The
Republican Convention met at 10 A.
NJ, and continued in secret session
the best part of the day. The plat
form declares that the PRINCIPLES of
equal, civil and political rights can
only be enforced by the Republican
party, reiterates adherence of vio-
lence, intimidation or fraud in cleo
tons, denounceS the practice of the
Democrats in attending Republican
meetings, charges the Democrats
with being unfaithful to their pledges
of 1876, denOunces the Democrats
for frauds, violence and intimidation
in 1876, for assassinations and MUIR
der during that campaign. and for
the subsequent violent seizure of the
State Government, denounceS the I'M
seating of certain Republican men,
bers Of the last Legislature, arraigns
the Democrats for abOlishing or re.
moving certain election precincts, ar
ralgns the fraud investigation. reat-
firms their belief in the fair election
of Hayes and Chamberlain, and
pledges the Republican party to the
work of purifying the public service.
The following is the ninth article
of the platform
We deem it ineXpedient to nomi-
nate candidates for Governor and
other State officers because, owing to
the condition of affairs in this State
occasioned by rifle club rule and two
years of Democratic supremacy, it is
impossible for the Republican voters
in many counties, without mourning
great personal danger, to organize
for the campaign or vote at the cleo
lion when held.

ton adjourned.

Don't Want a Ring Candidate

The following extract is from a
communication in the Cumberland
Ne'cS Of the 18th, signed "Nemesis,"
and eviently written by a Democrat:
So far only one or two points have
been touched upon, with the object
of making one effort at least to re-
kindle the old and purer fires of Dem
ocracy, and arouse, if possible, the
masses to realization of the degra-
datiOn to which the Vaccinations of
the ring has reduced them political
ly. Have not German and his cOad-
tutors converted the Democratic par
ty this State into a mere machine +?
Is 1t, under their manipulation, any
thing more than an instrument to
record their utteranceS, to execute
their DEGREES, to pursue and punish
those whom it is their pleasure to
antagOnize and to elevate to high
position the creatures of their prefer
ence? How can 50 close a corpora
ton possess a single element of Dem
Ocracy? How can so corrupt and
arbitrary a combination answer the
great need there is to day for party
to defend and maintain the great
Democratic idea Of republican gov
ernment? How can we assail fraud
as embodied in the Centennial Pres.
ident, when we dare not honestly in
vestigate even the management Of
the Chesapeake and Ohio canal {;

for the honest manhood and true
chiYalry of the South to come to the
front, and proclaim their fidelity to
the Lost Cause. A few more such
Grand Old Patriots like Mr.. Davis,

zens can vote. He wanted the Re-
publican party to win this fight and
to start on the right track. He want
ed the party to carry aloft the banner
of morality and honesty. Put in the
field the best men that can be got,
and for whom good men of all par
ties can vote. In such a case he be-
lieved it possible for the party to
carry also the Second district.
After some further discussion, dur
ing which the party dissensions were
referred to, Mr.. Weatherby said he
did not think anything would be
gained by a pOstponement. He want
ed to take time by the forelocIi and
20 to work at once. He offered res
olutions for the holding of conven-
tions to nominate Cal. didateS for Con-
gress on Wednesday. September 4th,
at the following places:
First district, Easton, Talbot coun-
ty; Second district, Westminster,
Carroll county; Third district,
Raine's Hall Baltimore Fourth dis
trict, China Hall Baltimore Fifth
district, Ellicott city, Howard coun-
ty; Sixth district, Cumberland, AL
legany county.
Another resolution provides that
in the several conventions to be held
under the aforegoing resolution the
counties comprising each Congress
sional district shall be entitled re-
spectively to cast vote equal to
their representation in the General
Assembly provided, however, that
the Seventeenth ward of Baltimore
city be allowed four votes and the
I two districts of Baltimore county
two votes in the Fifth Congressional
district convention, and the remain
ing districts of Baltimore county be
allowed six votes in the Second Con-
gresSional district convention.
He also offered a resolution that
the convention to be held under the
above resolutions shall select dele
gates equal in number to the repre-
SentatiOn of the respective counties
in the Legislature to a State conven-
tan to meet in Baltimore on Sept
18th, which shall elect a new State
central committee.
A third resolution authorized the
delegates on the State central com.
mittee, with the local committees, to
make the necessary arrangements
for the holding of the primaries.
After some discussion the place of
meeting in the Fifth district WAS
changed from EIicott City to Annap-
oils Junction, and in the the Sixth
district from Cumberland to Rock
vile, Montgomery county.
The first resolution and also the
second were then adopted.
The resolution for new State con-
trail committee caused some discus
sion, Mr.. Mathews saying that there
are persons who appear determined
to keep up the ilI-feeling in the par
ty, and he thought this resolution
would have that effect. The resolu-
ton was laid on the table. The third
resolution was adopted.
Mr.. Small said that the committee
was elected for two years, and rs it
declined to call a new convention he
moved that leave be given 70 Gar
ratt, Frederick, Montgomery, Wash
ington and Allegany counties to
withdraw from the committee, and
organize new convention in order
to be able to carry that district. The
chairman did not entertain the mo-
ton, and put a motion to adjourn,
which was carried. -BddimOre Anler-
