Conwell said in taking the floor: 81 had
no hesitancy in becoming a presiding Of
ficer for Union Republican convention,
because they were all noted for their
good behavior. 1t was a pleasure TO have
Roosevelt as a candidate for the next
president. The Republican party is not
obliged to make apology for blunders and
short comings I trust your deliberation
will be conducive to the up building of
the Republican party. and that interest

more noble to forgive an enemy than TO
forsake a friend.
O1e faction has already put a ticket in

place of right. The rank and file do not
