At meeting of the Rehu6HcQn Mem
bers OF the Legislature of Vermont, holden
at Jefferson Hall, in the State House in
Montpelier, on the evening of the 9th day
OF October. A. d. 1912, the following was
unanimously adopted.*
" In times OF danger from abroad it is our
most important duty to strengthen the gov
eminent OF our country with the confidence
OF the people, and to support, to the. utmost
OF our power, those political guardians who
nave already by their measures given us
full pledge of their attachment to the Re
publican principles of our constitution, who
nave labored with unwearied fidelity to
preserve us from the entangling alliances &
destructive broiIs of Europe, who by the
most patient forbearance have evinced
their love OF peace while consistent with
safety and honor, and, wnen peace had be-
come dishOnOrabe and dangerous. have
with prOmptitude relied upon the patriotism
Of the people in an appeal to arms, and have
adopted all the wise means, within the com
pass OF constitutional power, to ensuressuc-
cess and to promote that confidence OF the
people IN their government which is alone
wanting to crown their efforts with victory.
Such are our present rulers, & these are
cur reasons tor granting them our support

~ to commerce. And as to unity of senti-
ment we have no doubt but all these who
are friendly to the principles of republican
government will soon be united; much
sooner than were they to listen TO those
whose lust OF power nothing but the slave
ny OF their country can satisfy, and whose
bitterness of SANDER no laws consistent
with rational liberty can control; and by
deserving old and tried friends, furnish an
American proof of the ingratitude of re-
publics. ~
