As to the policy the State should adopt, my judgment is clear that the convention should enter into no compromise or form no fusion with the Radical party, but that it should present to the State a full ticket, made up of her own true, tried and trusted sons-men whose characters give the best assur ance that their election would bring peace, prosperity and honor to the State, and for- whom our people can vote without the sacrifice. of feeling or principle. But while this is my set ted conviction, my faith in the patriot ism of my felldw-citizena who hold opposite viewsis so'strong that I shall cheerfully acquiesce in the policy adopted by the convention whatever it may be. I trust that. this spirit may animate..,all the. delegates to the con vention' ad that when 'that'body has spoken authoritatively, all who honest ly seek refoni will be found working zealously and earnestly-for the best in terests of our State.- There is no hope for us but in harmonious counsels and united action; it is the clear duty of all to sustain that adopted by the con - vention, - 'Should this body determine to adopt that i&knowicas the " straight ou'? policy, it will then be called on to.select our standard bearers, and in the coice of these it should be per fetly- untrammeled, looking solely to the availability of those. chosen.
