Mass meeting battle over delegates at county primary
A county mass meeting last Tuesday sparked a clash over whether delegates for congressional and senatorial races should be elected by primaries or chosen at the courthouse gathering. Supporters and opponents argued amid loud, unruly scenes as Gen Gordon’s supporters claimed the meeting’s delegates bound the party, while others urged fair notice and broader participation. The crowd, including many women, packed the courthouse with 400 to 1,000 attendees and notable voices from Reese Hogan Brown and Grow voiced the debate. General Gordon spoke, defending his resignation from the Senate and supporting railroad policy, while Emphasizing future aims to aid labor and reduce burdens. The event ended with mixed reactions from party factions.
