In view Of the circumstances that have brought US

I. Thatthe will OF the people is the foundao Of
all free Gosernment. That to give effect this wi !,

certainty OF sound judg without sound Iudg-
Inent there can u no Wiso Government.
2. That It is an inherent and constitutional right
Of the people TO discuss all measures Of their Govern
ment and TO approve or dsapproye, US to their udg.
mant seems right That they have right 10 propose
Hll advocate that policy which IN their Judgment is
bdst and TO argue and vote against whatever policy
seems to them TO Violate the Constitution TO impair
their liberties, or be- detrimental to their welfare.
3. That th 40 and oil other rights, gtiamnteod to
them by their Constitutions, their rights in time
ot war as well as in time OF peace aud Of far more
value AMI necess ~ In war than in peace. For 10
peace liberty, security and property are seldom
daugeTod IN war thoy are ever IN perll.
4. That we now say TO all wnon II may concern
not by way Of threat but calnY and Aun,y, that we
will net surrender these righs nor submit 10 their
Orclhle violation. We wall obey the laws, ourselves
and others must obey them
o. That there Is a manifest difference between the
Administration OF the Government and the Govern
and political Institutions created by the Constitution,
nnd TO 1t the people owe allegiance. The Admnlstra-
ton are but the agents Of the people, subject to their
approval orcondemnauani according to he merit or
demert OF their acts.
