Resolped, That we have unahated con-

/ ~, upon which the late lalnented presi-
dent, Gen. HARRISON, was brought into
power. =.
RssOipsd, That We regard the death Of
the late President as great and grievous
national notwithstanding and over
whelming as its first annunciation was,
subsequent events and Developments
have enforced deeper and more over,
whelming sense of the extent and force o.
that great national calamity.
Resoired, That our deep and abiding
disapprobation and Reproduction ofthe prin'
ciples and policy Of the Administration
lately elected from power, are undiminish'
ed; and that recent events have served bu
to confirm our repugnance and DISCUS
towards them, upon broad and patriotic
grounds. =
Resoiued, That the great body Of thu
: Wing party in the late extra session o
J Congress, have proudly and justly vindi
! Gated their claims to the respect and con
. fdence of those who placed them in pow
er.
Resolued, That, with our hands upol
: our mouths, and our mouths in the dust
!: with the deepest and most CALLING sens
!. of humiliation, we are forced TO comics
9 that the great and glorious party whicl
e signalized by lis unparalleled efforts tn
e year 1910, and marked it as an era in tn
9 history Of our country, has been grievons
" disappointed by our present Chief Ma
gis,rate-and whatever may be the mo
!, i've, we cannot and ought not to recog
4 nize him as Wing President, or give :
/. him or his cabinet Our coniideacs in ad
u vance.
h Resoiued, That in the recent election
) the subject Of so much EMULATION wit
e our opponents-we see nothing to discot
d rage our efforts, or to impair our conf
n dence in the ultimate triumph of VIII
/. principles: We see only, that many
l. our friends have been stunned and appa
v led at the unexpected and disastrous d.
,e yelopements of the last few months, tn;
A. have done so much to sacrifice the gre
!! interests of the country. and to degrad
r. our national character.
.. Resolued, That, under the provident
n Of God, we will rally as one man, at ii
Is next elections in this state, and that "
. viii use all honorable efforts to bring
the polls our whole force.
Resoluei, That, taught by experience
m we will in the future, avoid all nomin
$. tons made upon the ground of "avall
i bility;" That as our principles arc undl
Be guisel and open as day. so we will ha
il none to represent them, but such as
t. in our hearts believe are fism, faithit
able, and willing to accede to, and vlnt
lie cate them, and the whole of them.
al ResoiveJ, That we do not perceive y
IN necessity Of any National Convention
