April 4. U also will adopt a plat
form designed to round to th entirn
country tho keynoto of Republican
principles for tho national campaign.
To-day'a meeting marked the ro
turn of the up-Htato Old Guard to
complete control of tho Republican
party. Although tbe principal boss,
William Barnes, was not present, tho

time iu mny years.
The revived organization machlno
operated as smoothly as In the days
of Boas PUtt. Hcarcely five minutes
were required to put through tho
nucoxsary resolutions for the conven
