8. Rosoved-Thut since 4ho "uteror object"
of annlhllatlng the State Institutions, and destroy
ing the paper currency Of the People, has been IL
vowed,we lock on the late recommendation of Il
Bankrupt Law applicable to ''Corporatons and 9TH
or Bankers, an effort to bring the business in
terGsts OF the people under the control OF the
Federal Government. That on this suhject we fall |
y concur in the declaration made by the Honorable
Martin Van Buren,, in the Senate of the United
States, in the year 1926, when opposing the adop-
ten of a similar project that 'noW the attempt Is
to DO made, if not in open and unequiv ocal
manner, at least in an indirect way, TO strip the
Stntcs of the power ofchartoring Bnnks That it
interieres with the regulations which the States may
have adopted for The government Of these nstitu-
tons, and is an odous exercise Of power not gran
ted by the constitution and that this never
done, aud never attempted in any country on the
face Of the globe"
10. Resolved, That we distinctly trace tho War
upon State institutions to the doctrines promul-
gated in this city in 1899, by faction, Of which
Robert Dale Owen, disciple Of Fanny Wright was
| leader, among the most prominent of which were
the necessity of"a cicI rc0OtatjOR aohich 1co"td

| H. Resolved That the Democratic Republican
party, organized by our Fathers, and rs we maintain
it, has no principle in common with these Desruc-
tiyes, whether pursuing their "ueror objects un.
der The varions names OF "woriins,men party
"an,i-monopoly party "eqnal rights party, or
''loco f,co party" That their dangerous designs
were held in mcritod contempt, until some leading
portions of their policy were declared governing
principles of the federal administration, and some
consanguinity oficeng' was exhibited from high
official stations.
IL Resolved, That we observed with pain and
regret that portion OF the late message of the Presl
dent hich relates to the recent elections and at
tcmpts to explain the rcsult.-Thnt we deem 1t due
to the character Of the citizens OF this State, and to
tho great of self government to declare that
the President has been in that respect grossly mis-,
taken, and in his duusion has cast an unt0undcd
rcproach upon the ciiizons of his native State; and
fundamentally mpcaChCd the intelligence and
integrity of an enlightened and ncorruptiblo people
l3. Resolved, That we highly approve OF the
firm and independent stand taken by the Hon, \. +
TALLMADGE and his compatriots III the Senate IN
defending the rights and prosperity of our citizens
against the ru!nous experiments oil those new
lights in government finance and political orlho
duXV whose brief sway OF the party organization has
produced such general embarrassment in TIC bus
ness concerns OF the people, and involved the ad
Manifestation IN pecuuiary and political bankruptcy
II. Resolved, That those representative IN Con
gross who have been officially demo lnccd Tor dalIng
to viudcate the sNmctly OF the public faith, and "d
vocatc the protection Of private property, who deem
inc absolute acquie.ccnce in Tho VIII Of the GXccu
tive or Of his couuscoIs, to be rule OF despotic
government. and not portion OF the Democratic
Republican creed, have preferred the dictates o!
ius;Ico and conscience in coincidence with the man
iltst interests and plainly expressed will of the
people, TO the smiles Of executive favor and lhc
cncomiuns of tho loco tOcos, are entitled TO the
highest confidence aud enduring gratitude of the
people,
rs. Resolved, That the various experiments made
during the last few years to improve our currency
aud enlarge specie circulation. have ended IN
the arrangement Of the one, and the total disap'
pcaranco oil the other. That the present suiIerlnSs
# :ho people demand The application OF practical!
sense aud the lessons Of experience To our financial
legislation, and the rotacl lion Of steps hastily taken
or which experience Inns shown to have been I'M
wisely adopted.
10. Resolved, That we call upon our fellow cit
liens throughout the State, to sever all connection
with the loco ocos, and to rally under the old ban
