To the Citizens of the State . . . ' " - v of North Carolina : My attention has been called to a para graph in the address of S.F.Phillips, .Chairman of the Republican - Executive yommittee oi tne state, wmcn l cannot en dorse or sanction. The position, is there taken: that if the Convention should He called in the mode proposed, and the Con stitution adopted by it, .shall thereafter be ratified by the people of the State, and ahy of the present officers who , may not be re elected by the people, jwill nevertheless have the right to hold on to their office : and I in the - event of their doing so. the President would by Military force maintain them in office. Against any such doctrine as this I, as a Republican, enter my earnest protest and ?rn the party ot its ruinous. a . , n ... ' . aisastrous trn iatai enects. Nd such principle can or ought to be maintained under our Repuplican system of Government, and as one holding an im portant official position itt the State, I should scorn to be kept in office by a mili tary, jwwer outside ot the State, and in violation of the Constitution. .
