NEk11AG OF THE CENTRAL REPE BIICAN COMMIT
TEE TO DAY.
At noon TO day the central republican COM
mittee OF the District OF Columbia held a mact-
ing specially called TO consider two commInl-
cations-the first letter signed by COmnis-
sioner TwiniDg, L. j. Clephane and Others re-
Questng the committee 10 select delegates to
attend d meeting of citzeuS 10 be held on Wed
nesday nlg ht al Willard hall 20 make arrange
ments for the Inauguration OF Gen GARFIELD.
and a second communication signed by j. r.
Thompson, recording secretary, requesting the
committee TO send representatives 10 attend a
meeting TO be held on Thursday evening for tae
same purpose.
The submission OF the letters led TO a long
discussion. Patrick Cunningham thought that
the central republican committee snoa d [ Ike
charge or the Inauguration OF President Gar
field and not be bulldozed by either OF the SELF
constli iuted committees; that ft should pay no
respect TO either OF the requests, but take ho,d
OF the affar and have no more ID foolery.
1t was developed during further discussion
that there was an apprehension that the Wed
nesday night meeting was TO deal gently with
the democrats, and iJ was charged that Maipr
Tw1niBg, who Is TO call the meeting 10 order
had gotten up list OF citizens 10 place on com
mittees. which contained the names OF sixty
four democrats and only thirty SIX republicans
Mr.. Matthew Trimble offered motion tnat
the committee send three delegates 10 both the
Wednesday and Thursday night meetings he
couDSelled harmony. Or. Tinddll also took the
Same view CT the case.
Isaiah Washington was opposed 10 sending
any delegates TO The Wednesday night meeting.
He Charged that Major Twining hal packed his
committee with democrats. wnereat an irate
delegate retored: Isaiah, you have not made
a single statement that Is true. You are chock
fuli of lies"
In quiet way Col. Perry Carson labored 10
repudiate the "Wednesday night meeting aidei
by George Holmes. Colonel Perry Carson, ia an
undertone, said he wanted no such republl-
cans as the present Commissioners" One dele
gate, In reply 10 the charge thar Major Twfning
was democrat satu: well. / Judge man by
the company he keeps" After rurJner discus
sion, a dele gate moved as an amendment TO the
motion OF Mr.. TTimble TO strike out the word
Wednesday. and IL was carried by yeas ~. nays
l2. The original resolution, IN send delegates
adopted
A ballot being ordered the Following delegates
were chosen: Perry Carson. George Holmes and
aiah Washington, wltn J. III. Smith and |. y.
Gre CORY as alternales.
George holmes then suggested thai the CEN
tTal committee should recommend a member
for membership on the National Republican
Committee. whereat Isaiah Washington de-
tended the legality OF the election OF Dr. Parvis
some time ago. He squared himself for a long
speech, but Tie committee adjourned 10 cut him
Of.
