[EAN: 9781332836925], New book, [PU: Forgotten Books], Language: English . Brand New Book ***** Print on Demand *****. Excerpt from Minority Report of Mr. Stevens, Delegate From Oregon, Showing the Grounds Upon Which the Regular Southern Delegation Were Entitled to Seats in the Convention at the Front Street Theatre, Baltimore: Mr. Leach s Protest Against the Exclusion of Their Delegates; Mr. Breckinridge s Acceptance of the Nomination It was the coming together of persons from all parties outside of the regular organiza tion to strike down the Democracy of the State. It was a call without any ofiicial authority whatsoever. We thus find the Democracy of the State assembling in Convention according to the usages of the party, and we find, at the same time, persons assembling at the call of unauthorized individuals. In the former case the whole State was represented. In the latter about half of the State. Yet the majority of the Committee have indor sed the action of the latter as the action of the Democracy of Alabama, and have repudiated, contrary to all precedent, usage, right, and justice, the action of the former; not only this, they have repudiated the principles of their own action in the case of the Mississippi delegation. But the action of the majority of the Committee in the case of Georgia has gone one step further in its disregard of the acknowledged principles of the party. The Convention which the Committee put on an equality with the regularly authorized Convention, consisted in great part of persons who just participated in the regular Democratic Convention of the State. The regular called Convention consisted of nearly four hundred delegates, representing nearly all the counties of the State. The resolutions of the Convention having been adopted by a vote of 299 to 41, these latter withdrew from the Convention, and organized anew. Thus the majority of your Committee have exalted the pretensions of less than one-eighth of the delegates of the State Convention to an equality with the rights of seven-eighths of the Democracy of the State.
