These States, as will be observed
contain enough delegates to control
the Chicago convention, and also
enough Electors to elect the Republi-
can candidate for President. We do
not wish to be understood as intimat-
ing that the Republicans in the
States given below, should be entirely
ignored in the choice of the candidate
of the party in the Chicago convention,
we assert that they should be possessed
of discretion and common sense enough
not to attempt by their united vote in
the convention to force upon the party,
by joining with Northern faction, a
candidate who is not acceptable to the
Republicans of the States that must
bear the brunt of the battle and supply
all the sinews as we'll as the greater
part of the labor of the campaign.
Here is list of states, land their
strength in the convention,) which
cannot be expected to chosse a single
Republican Presidential Elector:
The Elk County advocate. [volume] (Ridgway, Pa.) 1868-1883, 1880-03-04
Let Common Sense Prevail.
(From the Milkes.hnrre rimes.A

What most concerns the Republican
party in looking over the field whereon
the Presidential battle is to be fought,
is to get candidate whom il can
elect. 1t is not question of men, ac-
cording to their claims on the
party, which most interests the masses
of that organization, but a matter of
consideration as to how they can best
insure n party success in order to
render sure a continuation of Repub-
lican administration. The party does
not propose to, nor could 1t if it at.
tempted, carry any dead weight
Republican Erchdnge.
No good Republican will dispute
the soundness of the doctrine con-
tanned in the above extract. Granting
that the first and most important con-
Germ "is to get a candidate whom we
can elect" the next question that,
suggests itself is one that involves
nothing more nor less: than common
sense. 1t is "What constitutes fair
and safe criterion by which to Judge
whether man is available or not?'
We have contended ever since the call
for the late State convention was is
sued, that the only safe plan-or at
least the safest-is to fairly guage the
sentiment of the masses who consti-
tute the Republican party, and then
respect what appears to be the predom-
mating preference in every State that
can reasonably be expected to contri-
butte toward the success of the Repub-
lican candidate for President.
The national convention to be held
at Chicago next June will be COM
posed of two distinct elements, viz:
The delegates representing States that
may reasonably be expected to give
their electoral votes to the Republican
candidate; and the delegates from
those States that cannot hope and do
not expect to add single Electoral
vote to tho achievement of Repub-
lican victory. We assume that there
are three classes of States as viewed
from a party standpoint, as follows:
l. Those that will give their Electoral
votes to the Republican candidate, no
matter whether he be Blaine, Sher-
man, Grant, Washburne. or any
other the convention could nominate;
2 Those that will choose Republican
Electors provided the candidate be
such an one as will receive the full
and enthusiastic support of the entire
party, together with at least a portion
of the independent and wavering eles
ment; 8, of those States that will
choose Democratic Electors no matter
who the candidates may be. For the
convenience of the reader we have
classified the States, not into three but
two classes, showing the relative
strength in the Electoral Colleges and
in the Chicago convention of each
State. We give first those States that
the Republicans must depend upon to
elect the. nominee of the Chicago
convention. 1t will be observed that
the Chicago convention will be COM
posed of 756 delegates, and that there
fore 379 delegates will be necessary to
nominate. The Electoral Colleges
comprise 369 votes and 1S5 are neces-
sary to choice of President. Here
then are the States that must elect the
Republican candidate if he be elected
at all:

candidate against the protests of the
Republicans of the States that will
