The commi.te on rczolutons made the
following report, which was unanimously
adopted:
WHEREAS, In the present position of vital
poli;ica, questions, affect ns the integrity Of
the Democratic party, and therefore the
perpetuity Of the American Union and in
view Of the fact that the existing differences
have been brought about by men in high
station, whose power for mischief has been
conferred upon them by the Democracy Of
Illinois; it is the duty Of every Democrat tc
declare explicitly his views and the princi
pies Of his action Therefore we, the repre-
sen,atives of the National Democracy OF the
State of Illinois, in convention assembled
DO hereby declare and resolve:
LIST. That we adhere, with unaltered and
unal,erable fidelity to the principles ct the
National Democratic party. as embodied in
the platform laid down by the Cincinnati
Convention of June, 1896, and in the Ma
tional Democratic Convention Of Illinois o.
April 81, 1858.
2i. That we regard the Democratic party
as the only political organization in the
country which, with safety to the cause oil
liberty, can be trusted with the exposition
and administration Of genuine republican
principles and holding its unity withou!
reference to erratic diversions of ambitious
and interested men essential TO the fulfill
ment of its mission, we will resist all efforts,
from whatever quarter they may come, to
modify or interpolate its faith.
81. That the Advancement of any mans
political fortunes is an object entirely Sec
ondary to the preservation Of the true
Democratic faith; and we believe that the
party can and will survive, not only the as
saults of its enemies, but, also, the failure OF
its aspiring men to reach the goal of their
wishes.
4th. The principles of nonintervention on
the part Of Congress, either directly or indi-
rectly, in the formation of the domestic
institutions Of states or Territories, further
than to ascertain that any constitution pre-
scented is republican in its form, is the &C
knowledgcd doctrine Of the Democ ratio
party, and that any attempt by the federal
authorities to go behind the record and in
qure into the manner in which the people
have chosen to "form and regulate their
own domestic institutions" would be gross
assumption of power not given by the Con-
stitution of the United States, nor sanctioned
by Democratic principles.
9th. That this position is borne out by
the uniform actions and declarations of the
Democratic party, from the time of its or
ganization to the present day; it having
always resisted, as a fundamental principle
Of it. faith, the concentration of powers in
