I do not care so much which candidate the vote for, it they only vote accor - ing to the reel preferences of a majority of the republicans of their respective districts. lbelieve in district representation. It was de- clued to be the law of the repub- lican arty alter a memorable con~ test fi teen years ago. Illinois and Cook county took a prominent and honorable part in that great ’ contest. It would be a pity if Illinois and Cook county now ig- nored either the spirit or the letter of that party law. Every district in Illinois ought to choose its delegates to the national con-j vention without dictation or inter- ‘ ierence from any quarter. Every . district delegate ought to vote in the national convention according to the wishes of his district. If he does not, district representation is only an idle and unmeaning form. I have heard it urged that all the Illinois delegates ought to go to the convention unpledged, so that they can vote as a unit and decide the nomination and have influence with the ne republican administration. I thi kthis would be a serious error. The republi. cans of Illinois do not wish their delegation to triumph in the con. vention at the expense of the real and permanent interests of the republican party. The interests of the republican party demand that the real sentiments ol the dis- tricts shall be expressed in national convention. That is what district representation is lor. it is to get near the people. A solid un- pledged delegation would be posi- tively discreditable to Illinois. It would look as if the grand old state of Illinois cared only {or a mess ol 1 pottage and a tram seat in the j l band wagon. Besides, it would hurt the party in the campaign."
