THe REPUTED FRAuD IN TifR 17TH

two sides to the issue which has been
raised in reference 10 the fairness c)
iha late PRIMARY election in The l7tE
Ward Of Baltimore city Tor delegates "a
represent the Ward in the coming Con-
OCCASIONAL Convention for this district.
AZ In an article. copied into our paper
from the Maryland Independent on the
Sih instant. we gave the HenkIe side Of
The case, we now feel called upon 10 lei
the ether side be heard. We quote
from The 7smss Of the 18th instant:
"The outrageous fraud alluded TO was
the alleged fact that but one day notice
had been given BY advertisement Of the
primary meetings that were held 10 that
Ward on the 10Th &c June last. Tie copy
Of the advertisement which the Indepsn-
dent Published Disclosed the fact, howev-
er. that fro dnys' notice had been given.
This. however. appeared to be . rather
. short notice Of The matter. and The
friends Of Gen. Chapman very prompts
" made some inquiries As to this pro-
ceeding. when they we're informed upon
indispulable aussoriiy that the very
same notice was gwen this year and
the identical proceedings had that have
been pFaclicpd il that ward Tor the lasi
sir years. The friends Of Gen. Chap
Iaan have been further assured that II
there is any desire to have the prima-
rites Of the 18th Ward held over again.
and iii be allowable TO do 50, they will
give Gen. Chapmsn q majority oT | 600
instead Of $50 - before. These very
me proceedings originated during Or.
tienkfe'S successive eansasses, aud was

THR TRuE IssUE.--In his letter Of
acceptance. Gen. Garfield takes the POI
sision that the rights Of the individual
can be best secured and most certainly
maintained by the destruction Of the
rights of the State and the augmenta-
ton OF the power Of the centra; govern
ment. The war-cry Of the Republican
party for IS years from 1860 was the
sUnion''--and il was q magical. potent.
war-cry that brought under its banners
nearly every Northern State. Now its
waschword Is the ''Nstion'-s very
different war-cry. II this country and
government is 9 Nation. in the RePub-
liaan sense. IL Is not Union, nor can u
be made Nation without first destroy
ing The Unson. Here is where The two
parties join issue. THIS Is what the
eight Is going 10 Be about. Ceniral'za-
ton ~ che purpose Of one party, that We
may become mighty nation; local self
government j. The sh,bboleth Of the
other. that the freedom Of the commu-
nifty and the liberty Of the individual
may be preserved.
