Richmond, Va, July Sat the night ses-
sion of the Readiusters convention, motion
was made to reconsider the vote by which an
electoral ticket recommended by the husi-
ness committee, had been adopted. This
gave rise TO excited and lengthy debate, in
which the Republican delegates took m &C.
tive part. saying they wished to be left free
to vote as they pleased for president and
vice-president. If halfthe Republicans were
ignored the Rpadjusters' party would 90
down. Without action on the motion to re-
consider, the committee, at 1850 p. m, nd
journed sine die,
THE EIoHTH MISSOURI DISTRICT sQUABnLE.
Kansas City, July Son next Saturday
the Democratic executive committee, OF
Jackson county, will meet at the county
court house in Kansas City, and take steps
toward the formation of con-
| gressional executive committee. Commu-
ncations to the Democratic executive
committee of other counties in this district
will be sent, and at some date in the near
| future all necessary particulars will be ar
ranged The movement is simply rising up
of the people against corrupt men who are
striving to bring about state of affairs dis
tasteful to the Democrats of the
district. No one but Crisp men
will be bound by the action of the
body now calling itself the Democratic exec
utive committee of the Eighth congressional
district. This set of men collectively called
the Crisp club, has set apart q day for hold
ing primary election, tho vote cast to be
counted by men under the clubs con.
troll. At this election Colonel Crisp will
very likely get the nomination He
will then be declared the nominee OF
the party by the Crisp faction, and they
will try to make tappsar that they are regu.
lar Democrats The opposition to Crisp and
his supporters will be consolidated so that a
concentration will be made on one man. ID.
| Z. Allen, of Liberty, Judge Sawyer and ex-
congressman Franklin are spok'n of, al
[ though the latter gentleman declares that he
is out of the race. His supporters, how,
ever, do not like 10 60 to other candidates.
Judge Sawyer is very popular and Is under
stood not to be a candidate until after Frank
lin declines or withdraws. The Times will
support Crisp and the Mail will support the
nominee Of the anti Crisp element The
Journal will favor the anti Crisp candidate il
the selection suits the larger part Of the
respectable Republican element. There will
be lively time in the eighth district thi;
fall.
