1606 - L June 7; ed: 2/1 - The national Union convention meets today at
Baltimore to nominate candidates for president and vice president and to
frame a platform for the Union party with which to make their fight in the
coming political campaign. From Ohio will be present Messrs. Dennison,
Tod, Delano, and Dorsey. -
"It is not however, in the nomination of a candidate for the Presidency
that the convention will find their sagacity most taxed. On that point
the people have already spoken, with a unanimity and enthusiasm unparal-
leled in our former history, and the convention will only ratify their
decision. In carrying out this duty, the convention will without doubt re-
nominate Lincoln, on their first ballot or by acclamation, for re-election
to the Presidency. It is in the celection of a platform that the conven-
tion will find the chief exercise of its experience and wisdom." (17)
