Res0lued, Tha, we hereby express
unaba.ed confidence in the integrity and
ability of our present Governor and SUBJ
ordinate State officers. u.s..
On motion of A. Hull, the resolutions
we're acted upon separately, the first be.
ing laid upon the table and the second
unanimously adopted. .....
So we see that the Democracy of Iowa
90 in for the MINORITY to rule, that they
endorse the vetoes, of Gov. Hampstead,
at the last session of the Legislature,
when bill was passed by large ma
jority, 10 submit the question to the peo-
pile, as to.whelher a Convention should
be called to amend the Constitution
Oh, wha. Democracy! The people are
not, in the estimation of The Locofoco
wire. workers, competen. TO judge what
is for their good! Oh, no; the Office
holders and office-seekers are the persons
to make the laws, for say the Democrat.
2ic ~ State Convention, the people are
not capable to govern themselves. Will
the Democracy Of Wapello endorse and
sustain the action OF this convention.
aud thus herald to the world the news
tina, they arr. mot capable Of selfgovern-
men,; and that they would rather Few
politicians should be their lawgivers?-
II we are not mistaken we think that
they will not. We don't believe that
all independence and manlness has de-
parted from the Democracy of Wapello
yet; nor will We believe it till they am
pha.ically endorse the above dlsgraceful
resolutions.
