Delegates to the National COnyen-
ton.

The dissatisfaction caused by the course
OF some Of the States in selecting delegates
to the last national republican convention
is likely to cause the adoption Of a new
rule in making up the next convention.
The old rule served TO prevent the popu-
lar will being expressed at Chicago, and
caused the defeat Of Mr. Blaine. A COM
mittee was therefore appointed and in
strIcted to report to the national commit
tee on the feasibility Of district represen-
tation in the next national convention. and
TO suggest some plan for calling that con
vcntion together. At meeting Of the
national committee in Washington. on
Saturday. majority of this committee,
consisting OF William T.. Chandler and
Edward Mcpherson, made its report, and
George G. Gorham submitted a minority
report.
The majority report declares that the
republican national convention Of 1884
shall consist of four delegates at large
from each State and two delegates from
each Congressional district. with an addi-
tional delegate at-large for each republic
can Senator in the then existing or next
preceding Congress, and an additional
district delegate for each republican
Representative in such Congress all to be
chosen at popular conventions in such
manner as the republicans Of each State
may determine; provided that the dele
gates from each Congres district
shall he the choice OF the republicans
Of that district in the convention held
within the district for that purpose. The
conventions within the States Tor the cleo
ton OF delegates to the national convcn-
ton shall he held at least one month be
lore the time for the meeting of the ma
tional convention. Notices ofcontests may
be given to the national committee, ac-
companied By full printed statements OF
the grounds OF contest. which shall also
be made public and preference in the or
der of hearing and determining contests
shall be given by the convention accord
ing to the dates OF the reception OF such
notices and statements by the national
committee.
The minority report made by George G.
Gorham defends the existing system of
State representation, and asserts that it
does not come within the province of the
national republican committee to deter
mine the manner in which delegates to
the national convention shall he elected
The whole subject was referred to a
committee of five. of which Mr. William
T.. Chandler is chairman. to report As to
the practicability of new rule within
year.
II is important that the new rule he
adopted. for the republican party will
scarcely endure another such trial in the
selection of delegates, as that OF 1880 with
out fatal division. II is now plain that
the popular feeling demands change.
and the committee will do wisely to gov
ern themselves accordingly.
