IL. That Kansas should, of right, be
Immediately admitted as State under the
Constitution recently formed and adopted
10y her people, and accepted by the House
OF Representatives.
IL. That, while providing revenue for
the support of the general government by
duties upon imports, sound pulley requires
such an adjustment of these imports as to
encourage the development of the indus
trial interests Of the whole country; and
we commend that policy of national ex-
changes, which secures to the working
men liberal wages, to agriculture remune-
raling ptices, to mechanics and manufac-
turers an adequate reward for their skill
labor, and enterprise, and to the nation
commercial prosperity and independence.
| IS. That We protest against any sale or
alienation 10 others of TIE Public Lands
| held by actual settlers, and against any
view OF the cree Homestead policy which
regards The settlers as paupers or suppl
ants for public bounty and we demand
| the passage by Congress of the complete
and satisfactory Homestead measure which
has already passed the House
| IA. That the Republican party is op-
posed 10 any change in our Naturalization
/ Laws or any State Legislation by which
the rights of citizenship hitherto accorded
TO immigrants from foreign lands shall be
! abridged or impaired and in favor of
giving full and efficient protection to the
| nights OF all classes of citizers, whetber ma
| tive or naturalized. both at home and
| abroad.
10. That appropriations by Congress
for River and Harbor Improvements of a
National character, required for the ac-
commodatlon and security of an existing
commerce, are authorized by the Consti-
tuition, and justified BY the obligation of
Government 10 protect the lives and prop
erty OF its citizens.
l6x That a Railroad TO the Pacific Ocean
is imperatiTelE demanded By the interests
OF the whole country that the Federal
Government ought 10 render immediate
and efficient aid in its construction; and
that, as preliminary thereto, daily Over
land Mail should be promptly established.
II. Finally, having thus set forth our
distinctive principles and views, we invite
| the cooperation OF all citizens, however
differing on other questions, who substan-
italy agree with us in their affirmance and
/ support.
sUPPLEMENTARY RESOLUTION.
! Resolved, That we deeply sympathize
with those men who have been driven,
some Of them from their native States and
others from the State Of their adoption,
and are now exlied from their homes on
account of their opinions; and we hold
the Democratic party responsible for this
gross violation Of that clause of the Consti-
tuition which declares that the citizens of
each State shall be entitled to all the priv
lleges and immunities of citizens in the sew
eral States.

the voters could come out here and learn the
merits Of the two men, and learn who stands
highest in the estimation Of the god people
of this state. glance at the statistics Of
the election in 1858 will show that " Honest
Abe F" had the popular vote with him, as he
has the hearts of the people. In that election
the Republican state ticket was elected by a
majority Of 1885; but with this majority
against him, Mr.. Douglas was, by an unjust
apportionment, returned to the Senate and Mr.
Lincoln-returned home, to be sent to Wash
ington by popular verdict of the people,
little later in the year Of this world as we
shall see. Now when we take into the con-
sideratiOn, that in addition to about 1855
votes, the administration ticket proper had
5000 more anti Douglas votes, we shall sec
that more than 1900 people more were OPP
posed to Mr. Douglas than were in his favor
But in the face of these facts, Mr.. Douglas
in a speech at Chicago Immediately after the
election, rejoiccd exceedingly that 3" the grea,

had elected him Tor Senator for another term
of six years. T may speak in some future
