iority OF the members thereof; and in case
any OF its members shall be appointed a
delegate by any other organization, and shall
| not forthwith in writing decline such ap-
pOntment, his seat shall be regarded as
vacated, and the delegation shall proceed
TO fill the same; and ii is hereby also
empowered to supply all vacancies by
death, absence, resignation, or otherwise;
and whereas the Democratic party OF this
State has in the four last national contests
instructed its delegations TO the Demo.
cratic National Conventions TO enter the
Convention as unit, for the purpose OF
protecting itself thereby against fictitious
and fraudulent contests OF the seats OF the
regularly-appointed delegates; therefore
"ReSOlUed, That in case any attempt
should be made to di.member or divide the
delegation by contesting the seats OF a pOr-
ton Of the delegates, and any Of the dele
gates appointed by this Convention should
cOuntenance such attempt by assuming to
act separately from the majority OF the dele
cation appointed by tbiT Convention, or to
enter the National Convention separately
from such majority, or should fail to CO.
operate with such majority, the seats OF
such delegates shall be declared to be Va
