Chairman L. q. Churchman called the
lmeeting together and stated its object.
The action of the executive committee
in this city on Wednesday was endorsed.
The resignation of the candidates on
t. e Regular Republican ticket other than
those on both State tickets were asked
for and were presented 10 the committee.
The committee then discussed the Sitrt-
alton and started toform Il State ticket.
A long and heated contest followed. The
committee had been forced to this wn' k
by the prevailing attitude of citizens. he
cause of the magnanimous action of the
Union Republicans in having made so
many concessions.
The work of agreeing on the various
names placed on the ticket was slow
one and there was considerable friction
htwecn various members of the commit
tee as each place on the ticket was taken
mp.
I An erroneous rum0r had gotten abroad
that Yesterdays meeting at Dover was
to he Joint affair between the Regulars
and Unions and news of the result of the
meeting was awaited with great interest
hy Rppubicans Of both factions in this
city.
Quite n number of Republicans when
they heard that the ticket had been re-
vised called up Dover on the long dis
tance telephone and the single line be-
tween the two cities was kept hot for a
| tine.
1t was very generally reported that the
ticket had been approved by the Union
Republican Executive Committee. This
was a little previous as the committee
held no session yesterday. The propo-
Sition will be considered by the State
Central Committee at a meeting to be
held by it on Tuesday next.
The sentiment of the Union Republi-
cans seems favorable to the ticket in a
general way although there are some
0bictinnnl features to it. There is. how
ever, great desire for speedy settle
ment on one ticket.
Republicans generally exnressed them
selves fuvorably on the ticket, Indicating
that they have reached such Il state that
hoy are willing to make any sacrifice
in order that there may he one ticket,
'hich they know will mean n Republi-
ran sweep of the State mt the poles in
November. On the strength Of the
brightest prospects of their being hut
nnc ticket many Republicans who had
loavcd will today get registered. Dem
ocrats were last night wearing detected
oolls and soma wore willing to concedc
he defent of the Democatic ticket.
