POLITICAL.
Two Factions Of the Republican Party
Harmonic.


Harmonic.
The two factions OF the Republican par ty
heretofore playing the game of flow against
ebb have harmonized. The ratification har-
monies were solemniZed with general for
giveness last night at the headquarters of
the Republican Alliance, 115 Powell street.
1t was a determination sincere and was
cemented by sundry libati0ns quite irrespec-
tive of the orthodox feelings of the Pro-
hibition party. For most of the readers it is
unnecessary to dsviate into the history of
the unpleasautness, with Mr.. Wilson on the
one hand and DR.. Meyers on the other. The
Republican Alliance and the so-called
regular organization had a fight at the
recent primaries. After those primaries
the two factions of the party have en-
deav0red to discover a cause of agreement,
and they came together last night. Mr..
Wilson, president Of the Republican Alii-
snce. was in the chair. The foodgates of
harmony were opened, for the attendance
of friends could not surge past the doors,
from the fact that the rooms were filled, a
gratifying circumstance, no doubt
In opening the proceedings Mr.. Wilson
stated that the course most prudent and
desirable was that all parties should
unite and to that course he gave his most
hearty concurrence. From this time for
ward until election day they should work
for the common cause of success for the
Republican party.
D. S. Dorm also urged the necessity
OF forgiveness, combination and Tesolute
action for TO win success for the Repub-
lican party. The differences which had ex-
listed were really not matters of heart or
conviction and he hoped that now there
had been reconcilement there would be
thorough cooperation in winning the cleo
tiOn. Mr.. Dorm proposed a resolution rec
ognzlDg in j. n. Z. Wilson an able, in
teIligent and honorable leader, who has
had its interests at heart and who Is en-
titled TO the thanks of the Republican party
for his services in the past. He also pro-
posed that henceforward in this campaign
those who have acted with different factions
of the party will strive TO harmonic all diff
ferences, SO that united trout may be pre-
scented to the Democratic party on election
day.
William Blattner seconded the resolutions,
and they were carried unanimously.
The subsequent proceedings were mostly
congratulatory and jubilant. Among those
who spoke were the Hon. Charles o. Alex
ander, the Hon. William S. Barnes, Dr. r.
c. Meyers. John L. Dare. A. S.
1saacs. John F. Mullen, Morris Asher, Z.
j. Mills, Hon. Arthur Briggs, Hon. Thomas
OBrien. Hon. II. G. Dibblee ard John Il.

lieye II 10 be the duty OF all good Republicans al
