At a meeting Of Utica, n. y, Stalwart
friends of Roscoe Conkliug on Monday.
evening, it was resolved to prose- cute
hencetorth on active campaign against
Blaine, and to issue an address giving their
reasons and asking the cooperation Of
others. This address has been presented
personally or by letter TO Stalwsrts
throughout the country. 1t is claimed
