derstsndlng Of the duties OF candidates,
committees, etc. We have been ab.
sOrbed 10 the great questions of reform
aud neglected the equally as important
question Of how to obtain the desired
refo ms. Some of our best men have
made sad mistakes, which, had they
given more thought to their duties In
the position which they held, they
would have avoided.
Committees elected by convention
to take charge Of the campaign should
carry out In full the will Of the conyen

the wisdom OF the convention or 10
any way to change Its decree. II the
committee is not 10 favor Of the con
