Tal Ended, and Voting Begins To- Day—The Long Drama Has . Reached Its Fifth Act. Tho contest of Friday in the National Conven~ fon on the Minois contested seats will be mein- orablo In tho annals of tho Republican party. The fe of the purty depended upon it. It in- volveda grent principle, the principle of the right of individual opinion and action tn tho conduct ef party affairs. The unit rule, the in- structions rule, tho Stato Convention rile—all these rutes which tend to provent deliberation and {ndividual independence,—ure subversive of the foundation principles of the Republican party. Rut they bad come to be tho corner- ttone of the political structure which the Syn- dcato sought to rear. By tho nid of Instructions and tho unit rule thres prominent and moro or leas distinguished Republican leadora nttempted toforce upou an unwilling party the nomination to the Presidency of a particular person, To sayo tha Republican party from de- Mruction it bocamo unecessary to brenk down tho unit rulo and tho Syniiente at tho sametine.
