TIE Prohibition party and the

perfect harmony on one point. Both
are doing what they can TO overthrow
the Republican party; both shout
over the Ohio election. That's right,
harmony is essential to success in

Republican Nominations.
Did The State Cen tral Committee
Do Right2

An anonymous writer gives voice
in the Platteville Witness to the
mutterings Of few of Mr.. Hazel
tons personal partisans against the
Republican State Central Committee.
The complaint is that the committee
did not proceed to decide who was
the nominee of the party in this
district, and bend all its energies to
accomplish his election and crush
the other claimant.
Had the committee been encour
aged by any assurance that the cleo
ton of the nominee were only n
probability, there would have been
proprety in such a course. But,
with the evidence undisputed, that
the election Of either claimant, so
long as both remained in the field :,
was scarcely within the range of
possibilities; and that the election
of either, even were the other to
withdraw, was highly predetermined,
such course by the committee
would have been unwise and indie
feasible.
The committees duty in the prem
Uses was, first, to serve the Republi
can party, and to that end adopted
what appeared the method most
likely to ensure the election of a
Republican to Congress from this
district. On the representations of
every member Of the committees
appointed by both conventions at
Monroe, the State Central Commit
tee, rad all Others present, became
convinced that only by getting both
Reyes and Hazelton out of the way
and third man put in nomination,
could the district be saved to the
party. Hence they sought to bring
about that result. If the committee
erred, so did Postmaster General
Howe, both u Senators who
were present, and every Republican
paper of the State and Nation that
has mentioned the subject; and so
did practically all the Repub leans
of this district, nine-tenths of whom
to-day think that it is mistake that
llazelton diu not accede to the prop
osition of the Central Committee
That proposition is not SO generally
understood as it should be. 1t was,
that both claimants abide by the
decision of the committee on two
questions, to-wit LIST, Which, if
either, was the regular nominee of
the party? I'd, Should either or
both withdraw?
The committees action was based
upon the theory that whichever was
found to be the regular nominee, he
would be benefited by the decision
to that effect. But that, however
regular his nomination, it appearing
that that nomination was so distaste
full to a large element of the party
AZ to render his election doubtful,
while some third man could almost
surely be elected, the welfare of the
party demanded his withdrawal.
Had Mr.. Hazelton or Mr.. Reyes
been nominated at Monroe by two
thirds vote, and had no boltfollowed;

cans refused to be bound by the nom
ination to endanger the interests of
=, the party, while the substitution of
some other name would probably
bring success, he Sdould lcHhdra,c.
This is The position of the State
Central Committee, and it will only
be assailed by personal partissns,
who place the ambitions and claims
of individuals above party interests

The Republican party is getting
into the hopelessly divided condition
which characterized the Democracy
in 1860, and it is not improbable that
the result will be the same as that
which followed Democratic division.
Iourier-Journol.
That was about the time that the
Democracy of eleven States of the
Union united for the destruction of
the government, with multitude Of
sympathizers in every quarter of the
land approving. In speaking of 'the
hopelessly divided condition" OF the
Republican party it cannot be justly
compared with the democracy of
that period, for however divided
they may be, Republicans are loyal
to the flag, and never conspire for
its destruction.

For the benefit of an inquisitive

against the bill Is Republicans voted,

twice as many Republicans as Dem

The principle reason why party
platforms are meaningless is because
the candidate who is expected to
carry out the principles cares less
about the platform than the nomina-
ton. Like a prominent Wisconsin
Democrat who said to a convention
in accepting a nomination, 81 cordi
ally approve of your platform, which
| have not yet read" a good many
candidates are willing to take the
platform on trust.
