II. ResoIpsd That we hold sacred as we do all other
parts Of that instrument the following provisions Of the
Constitution Of the United States
"The trial Of ali crimes except in cases Of impsAch
ment shall BE- BY jury; and such trial sbai be held IN
ne state where the said crimes shall have been CON-
i

ment Of religion prohibiting the free exercise there
Of or sbrdgng the freedom Of speech or Of the press;
pstton the Government for q redress Of grievances
"The powers not delegated to the United States by the
Constitution, prohibited by II to the States,
served TO the btates respectively, or 10 the people,"
"The right the people TO bs secure in their persons

and sesures shall not be violated and no warrant shall

the witnesses against him; to have compulsory process
for obtaining wissse. In his favcr and to have the as
sstance Of counsel for his defense. /"
And We utterly condemn and danounce the repeated
and gross violstion by the Executive CT the United
States OF the said rights thus secured BY the Oonsutn'
tlon; and We also utterly rePudate and condemn the
monstrous dogma that In time o; var the con,ttu.
ton suspended 1t, powers In any respect enlarged
beyond the letter and true meaning Of that instrument
-. ResolVed, That We visw with indignation and
alarm the illegal and unconstitutional seiEuro and In
prisonmen for alleged political offences, OF our ctuSsns
without judicial process In States where such process
unobstructec but by Executive order By telegraph or
otherwise and call upon all who uphold the Union the
Constitution and the laws to unite with as In denouno
Ing and rspsng suoh fragrant violation Of the State and
Federal Constitutions aud yranncal infrAction OF the
rights and liberties Of American ettizens; and that the
people Of this State cannot safely and will not submit 10
have the freedom OF speech and freedom Of the press
the two great and essential bulwarkb OF civil liberty
put down BY unwsrrAnsed and despot.c ezsrtions Of
power.
