Pick The Best Men

A nuniber of the county conventions which have already been held have set a good example for those which are to follow in selecting as delegates to the state oonvention at Grand Rapids, some of the strongest men and most reliable Republicana in their loualities. The national convention írained a platform on which the loyal Kcpublicans of Michigan can stand and win, and the mitional committee has outlined a good general plan for the cauvass. 15ut in a carnpaign where so many attempts are made to break into party Unes, and where issues are presented in some new forms we need to bring our best men to the iront, both as delegates and as candidates. There will be no equivocation or evasión, we take it, about the platform. There shottld be wisdom shown in the choice of eandidates to make the cauvass, and for a starter nothing is better than a rousing state convention. Let us have as delegates men of the stamp that gave character to the meeting under the oaks in 1854, and to the honest money convention in Detroit in 1878.
