And if other members of the party are so desirous of promot- ing harmony that they don't wish to have a friendly confest for delegates to the various republican conventions there is a very easy way open to them to avold contests, this is by withdraw- ing from the contest. “As far as ‘he talk of my heing op- posed to Lieut, Gov.
