and as such We utterly reject and hold il
In absolute detes.ation.
4th. That Government always means
coercion when its lawful authority is re-
sisted, and those who oppose coercion
necessarily oppose Government itself,
and deny to it the only power by which
1t can hc maintained. Anti.coercion
therefore is only another Of their disguis-
es Of treason, BY which it hopes so to
weaken the Government at present, as
to overthrow it in the future, and We
brand it as hypocrisy and repudiate it.
9th. Having by our frst War of '76
won our independence, and established
our glorious Constitution and Union,
and having by our second war Of 1912
maintained our National integrity a.
ca.nst the most formidable of forei gn
foes i: now remains for lis TO establish
that integrity for all years to come against
internal foes, and in this third aud last
great trial of our country's history, in its
struggle to maintain that system of gov
crnment which has been the admiration
of the world, who ever hesitates or fal-
ters should receive the execrations Of
mankind, as he surely will the reproaches
of posterity.
9th. The value of the Constitution
and the Union cannot be measured by
dollars and cents nor by the span of hu
man life, and there should be no limit to
appropriations of men and money for their
preservation, except the amount requi-
site for certain success We therefore
cordially approve both the action of the
President in calling for men and money
and the action of Congress in placing at
his disposal more of both than he de-
manded, thus giving assurance to the
world Of the unaltcrnable determination
OF this Government to perpetuate its ex-
lstcncc as established by our fathers, to
crush out the foulest rebellion known to
history and to libcratc the loyal people
of the rcbellious States from the odious
despotism and terrorism which have
wrcnched from them the blessings Of
peace and prosperity in the Union of the
States, and We demand the prosecution
OF the war until the insults to our flag
and authority are avenged by the rcsto-
ration everywhere of law and order, and
the supremacy acknowledged of the Uni
ted States Constitution, as declared BY
its own terms.
9TH. In State Affairs We demand all
the economy consistent with the public
safety, and all TIE liberality required for
the comfort and efficiency of our volun-
teels, and for the protection of the State
against invasion. To that end We ap-
prove the action of the General Assembly
at its Special Session, making appropria.
tlons for war purposes.
sth. We heartily invite the co oper-
alton with US Of men of all parties, what.
ever their former political ties, who ad-
mere to these sentiments, and who unite
IN the patriotic support of the present
loyal Administration Of the Government.
On motion Of Mr. Leake the resolu.
tons were adopted.
Rrso(rea, That the 10y spirit eyinced
by the naturalized citizens Of our coun-
Try of the several natonalties, in their
prompt enlistment in the war for the
mon, and the valor exhibited by the
rush and German soldiery on the late
'attIe fields has commanded the admira-
ION OF all true patriots and we honor
he President for his promotion Of Col.
.'ge' to Brigadier Gcneralship, in con-
liberation OF late brilliant military achiev-
nents In the State of Missouri.
Unanimously adopted.
Mr.. :. H. Miller offered the followipo.
Res"lred, That We recognize in the
resent Administration at Washington
nc Constitutional Government of the
alton and not the central power of
olItlea party, and as the legally consti-
lted Government, We will uphold il
5alnst It's adversarics, whether they
low themselves as open Rebels in the
outh, or as sympathzers with Rebellion
, the North.
