THE RESOLUTIONS.
The Republican party, in National
Convention assembled, at the end of
twenty years since the Federal Govern
ment was first committed -to its charge,
submits to the people of the United
States this brief report of iU adminis
tration: It snppressed a rebellion of men to
subvert the National authority. It
reconstructed the Union of States with
freedom instead of slavery as its cor
nerstone. It transformed 4,000,000
human beings from the likeness of
things to the rank df citizens. It re
lieved Congress from the infamous
work of hunting fugitive slaves, and
charged it to see that slavery did not
exist; i has raised the value of our
paper currency from 38 per cent to
the par of gold. It has restored, upon,
a solid basis, payment in coin of all
National obligations, and has given us
a currency ab-olutely good and eqal
in ever' part of our extended country.
It has lifted the credit of the Nation
from the point where 6 per cent bonds
sold at 86, to that where 4 per cent
bonds are eagerly -sought at a premium.
Under its administration railways
have, increased from 31,000 miles in
1860 to more than 82,000 miles in
1879. Our foreign trade has increased
from 5700,000,000 to 81,150,000,000
in the same time, ami our exports,
which were 20,000,000 less than our
imports in 1860, were 264,000,000
more than our imports in 1879. With
out resorting to loans, it has, since the
war closed, drfraved the ordinary ex-
Lpensej of Government, besides the ac
cruing interest on tne public debt, and
has disbursed annually more than S30,
000,000 for soldiers' and sailors' pen
sions. It has paid 880,000,000 of
the public debt, and by refunding the
balance at lower rates, has reduced the
annual interest charge from nearly
S150,000,000 to less than 89,000,000.
All the industries of the country have
revived, labor is in demand, wages
have increased, and throughout the en
tire country there is evidence of a com
ing prospeiity greater than we have
ever enjoyed. Upon this record the
Republican party asks for the contin
ued confidence and support of the peo
ple, and this Convention submits for
their approval the following statement
-jef thO-plii-illlto-nrl )MlrVMi rrtlioVi
win coTttinuo to guide and inspire its
efforts.
Fin.t We affirm that the work of
the Republican party for the iast twen
ty years has been such as to commend
it to the faor of tho nation; that the
fruits of the costlv victories which we
have achieved through immense diffi
culties should be preserved; that the
peate we gained should be cherished;
that the Union should be "perpetuated,
and that the liberties secured t.o this
generation should be transmitted undi
minished to future generations; that
the order established and the credit ac
quired should never be impaired; that
the pensions promised should be paid;
that the debt so much reduced should
be extinguished by the full payment of
every dollar therpof; that tho reviving
industries should be further promoted,
and that the commerce already so great
should be steadily encouraged.
Second The Constitution of the
United States is a supreme law, and
not a mere contract. Out of confeder
ated StateS"it makes a sovereign nation.
Some powers are denied to the nation,
while others are denied to the States,
but the boundary between the powers
delegated and those reserved is to le
determined by the national and not by
the State tribunals.
Third Tho work of popular- educa
tion is one left to tho cAre of th- sever
al Statps, but it is the dutv of the na
tional Government to aid that work to
the extent of its constitutional ability.
The intelligence of the nation is but
the aggregate of the intelligence in the
several States, and that the destiny of
the nation must be guided not by the
genius of any ono State, but by the,
average gnnins of all.
Fourth The Constitution wisely
forbids Congress to make any law re
specting an establishment of religion,
hut it is idle to hope that the nation
can be protected against the influence
of sectarianism while, each State is ex
posed to its domination. Wo, there
fore, recommend that tho Constitution
be so amended ns to lay tho same pro
hibition upon the Legislature of each
Statp, nml to forbid the appropriation
of public funds to the support of sec
tarian schools.'
Fifth We reaffirm the belief avow-
pd in 1876 that the dutie.s levied for
thp purpose of revenue should so dis
criminate as to favor American labor;
that no furthpr grants of the public do
main should be madn to any railway or
othpr corporation: thatslavpry having
perished in the States, its twin barbar
ity, polygamy, mmt die in the Terri
tories; that everywhere the protection
accorded to a citizen of Aniprican birth
must be secured to citizens hy Ameri
can adoption. That wo doetn it the
duty of" Congress to develop and im
prove our watercourses and harbors,
hut insist that further subsidies to pri
vate persons or corporations must
cease; that the' obligations of the Re
public to the men who prpserved its
integrity in the hour of -battle are un
diminished hy the lapse of fifteen years
since their final victory. To do them
honor is and shall forever be the grate
ful privilege and sacred duty of the
American people.
Sixth Since the authority to regu
late immigration and intercourse be
tween the United States and foreign
nations rests with the Congress of the
United States and the treaty-making
power, the Republican party, regarding
tho unrestricted immigration of Chi
nese as a mattej of grave concernment,
under the exercise of both those- pow
ers would limit and restrict that immi
gration by the enactment of .uch just,
humane and reasonable laws and treat
ies n.i will produce that result.
Seveuth That the purity- and; pa
triotism which characterized the earlier
career of Rutherford B. Hayes in peace
and war, aud which guided the thoughts
of our immediate predecessors to him
for a Presidential candidate, have con
tinued to inspire him in his career as
Chief Executive; and that history will
accord to his administration the honors
which arc due to an efficient, just and
courteous discharge of the public busi
ness, and will honor his vetoes inter
posed between the people and attempt
ed partisan laws.
Eighth We charge upon the Demo
cratic party the habitual sacrifice of
patriotism and justice to a supreme
and insatiable lust for office and pat
ronage; that toobtain possession of the
national aud State Governments and
the control of place and position, they
have obstructed all efforts to promote
the purity and to conserve ihe freedom
of suffrage, and have devised fraudu
lent ballots, and invented fraudulent
certification of returns; have labored
to unseat lawfully elected members of
Congress to secure at all hazards the
-vote of a majority of States in the
House of Representatives; have en
deavored to occupy by force and fraud
the places of trust given to others by
the people of Maine, rescued by the
courage in action of Maine's patriotic
sons; have, by methods vicious in
principle and tyrannical in practice,
attached partisan legislation to appro
priation bills upon whose passage the
very movement of the Government de
pended; have crushed the rights of the
individual; have advocated the princi
ples and sought the favor of tho Rebel
lion against the nation, and have en
deavored to obliterate the sacred mem
ories of. the war and to overcome iU
inestimably valuable reijuiia ofnauon
ality, personal freedom and individual
equality.
Ninth The equal, and steady, and
complete enforcements of the laws, and
the protection of all our citizens in the
enjoyment of all privileges and immu
nity guaranteed by the Constitution,
are the first duties of the nation.
Tenth The dangers of a "Solid
South" can only be averted by a faith
ful performance of every promise
which the nation has made to the
citizen. The execution of the laws,
and the punishment of all those who
violate them, are the only safe meth
ods by which an enduring peace can
be secured and genuine prosperity es
tablished throughout the South.
Whatever promises the nation makes
tho nation must perform. A nation
cannot with safety relegate this duty
to the States. The "Solid South"
must be divided by the peaceful agen
cies of the ballot, and all honest opin
ions must there find free expression.
To this end the honest voter must be
protected against terrorism, violence or
fraud.
Eleventh And vtp affirm it to be
tho duty and tho purpose of the Re
publican party to use all legitimate
means to restore all the States of this
Union lo the most perfect harmony
which may be possible, and we submit
to the practical, sensible people of these
United States to say whether it would
not be dangerous lo the dearest inter
ests of our country at this time to sur
render the administration of the
national Government to a party which
seeks to overthrow the existing policy
under which we aro so prosperous, and
thus bring distrust and confusion
where there is now order, confidence
and hope.
Twelfth Ihe Republican party, nd
hering to tho principles affirmed by its
last National Convention of rpspect for
the constitutional rulc3 governing np
pointments to office, adopts tho declar
ation of President Hayes that the re
form of the civil service should be
thorough, radical and complete. To
this end it demands the co-operation
of the legislative with the executive
departments of tho Government, and
that Congress shall so legislate that
fitnps-s, ascertained by proper practical
tests, shall admit to the public service.

The San Francisco "Examiner,'',
with its accustomed efforts to traduce,
the Republican candidates, accuses.
Garfield of having been deeply involv
ed ih the Credit Mobilier frauds, and no
torious for the De Goyler swindle
Now Jerry S: Black is a staunch and
honorable Democrat, whose word no'
Democrat will dispute, and it will
probably be remembered that ljo wrote
an able open letter in reply to a great
speeofomado by Garfield at the time of
the Credit Mobilier business, in which
he- exonerated Garfield, though con-"
d'emning other Republicans. Thi3 let
ter was published in pamphlet form,
and sent broadcast over the land, at
last Presidential election, as an elect
ioneering document against the Re
publicans. Addressing himself direct
ly to Garfield in reply to that gentle
man's masterly speech, he used the
following language.
I will therefore call your attention,
to another case to which Dahomeiaa
rule does not apply, and in which the
failure of the Republican party to pun
ish its own rascals has been equally
signal; I mean the frauds of the Union
Pacific Railroad Company and the
Credit Mobilier. "Xou will parJon
me, I am sure, fct referring to this
affair; you are the last man upon whom
I would make a personal point, and I
could not do it here if would try; for
the conviction I have often expressed
remains unchanged, that your inte, rity
was not stained hy such connection as
you had with the business.
Black has held the position of Tf. S.
Attorney General and other import
ant positions at Washington, and bad
every opportunity to notice Mr. Gar
field's career. Speaking in this sarao
letter confidentially, Black further
said, "But we both know that it
(Credit Mobilier) was tho most gigan
tic fraud that tho history of modern
times disclosej Thus is it shown,
conclusively fiyJerry Black that-Garfield
was as free from tarnish as him
self in this transaction, and there
fore there is no need of any defence
being made in his beha'f, though prop
er to explain the misrepresentation of
papers who will admit no honorable
record in an opponent, no matter how
justly entitled to it. "Yroka Journ

Tho Burlington Hawkeye man thus
expatiates on the Monroe doctrine:
"The Monroe doctrine, simply and ex
plicit declares that foreign nations
shall not come over here and slide
down our cellar door; that England
and France shall not hang on our
front gate to do their courting; that
they can't bring over their syrup-pots
and eldersprouts and make sugar in
our maple grove; that Germany and
Austria can't spot no bee tree in our
woods; that Italy can't cut her firewood
out of our hedge rows; that Russia
can't spank her neighbors children with
our butter paddle. The Monroe doc
trine simply means that we are thn
bull of the woods between two oceans,
aud that the man who joins farms with
us on either side had better not move
the boundary fence until he talks to
us about it, and that he can't sublet a
patch of his farm to anybody until we

There is one being in this world
that carl afford comfort in the heavies
sorrow and soften the most rigorous
trials of our life. We call this being
mother. God gave her to us to sweet
en with- her kisses of love the bitter
cup that is often pressed to. our lip?.
He sent her to our cradle with the
wings of affection to hide from our
view the dark future into which wo
are to bo hurried to contend with
death. He appointed her to fold our
hands in the first prayer, and made
her smile the dawn of infinitude of our
hopes. To us she is the incarnation
of goodness, virtue and mercy, and the
hour of temptation we may hear her
tender voice pleading to our soul.
Whenever we feel a generous emotion,
the desire to dry a human tear, to help
the unfortunate, to break our bread
with the hungry and to perform any
noble act for our fellow-boings, we are
often unconsciously impelled by the
subtle power of the mother's influence,
for it is she who fashions our charac
ter and stamps upon it impressions tha
remain forever,
