NEW YORK, July 25.-Chas. Jan

back party of Ohio, for governor
wrote Geo. V. Jones, chairman of the
state committee of that party, in New
York, saying it was doubtful whether
the state convention of Ohio, on the
18th inst, would nominate an electo-
raj ticket, to be voted for at the COM
ing election, and asking advice on the
subject.
Jones in reply, says: If Gen. Butler
runs as the candidate of one party OF
even as third party candidate,
recognizing our principles and organ
1zatlon in the canvass, he will poll a
large vote in this state, including that
of ne arly every greenbacker here; but
he must indicate his intention very
soon, Tor our true men care nothing
for outside combinations. They are
becoming impatient and discon-
tented at this delay They want
and will have candidates to
represent them, not other par
ties and organizations which do not,
Or dare not touch the questions of
vitality to themselves or COZ airy.
Our state convention will meet in this
city August q, and appoint full set
OF electors, and sincerely hope our
party in each state in the union will
do likewise, besides placing the state
and ELECTORAL ticket in nomination. 1 |
hope your state convention will APP
point committee to act in congress |
with other true men throughout the |
union in selecting a candidate for |
president in the event of Gen. Butler |
declining to run as our candidate. L
suggest Tuesday, September the 9th,
for such action, if it becomes neces-
sary.
