Dem ocrAtic Resoluti0As on state
Policy.

too good TO miss an issue Of Democratic
paper.
Let our friends give them a careful
reading, and pass them around among
their neighbors:
II. That the Constitution of the United
States aud OF the State of Iowa explicitly
guarantee to the volunteers and militia Of
said State the inalien able rig hit of elec.ing
their own company otficers-and that tho
assumption, by the Governor, of the au-
thority Of appointing said officers under
the directions of the War Department at
Washington, without consulting the rank
aud file, is a ilagrnnt, unwarrantable, and
unjustifiable usurpation Of power, v hich
is grossly unfair to the soldiers themselves,
and dangerous to the independence aud
honor Of the State.
IT, That the load Of taxation which is
being piled upon the people of Iowa BY
the reckless extravasance AID partisan
favorilism of the Stale administration, is
fast becoming an unbearab'e burden; es.
pecially in its connection with the wicked
schemng by which all the Fictitious ad-
vantages Of the war are given to the East,
aud all its real bur.hens are thrown upon
the West aud that self preservation re-
quires that we should rescue the official
power Of the State from the corrupt and
unscrurulous party b'gotry which is fast
binding US, hand and foot, and delivering
us over t, the rapaci,y Of eastern fund
monsers and Political ShyIocks.
10. That this il government Of white
men, and was, established exclusively for
the white race that the negroes are not
entitled to, and ought not to be admitted
to political or social equality with the
them with Kindness and consideration, 20
an Inferior and dependen, race; that Il
right of the several States to determine
the position and duties of the race is a
sovereign right. and the pledges OF the
Constitution require us as loyal citizens
not to interfere herewith. That the party
fana,ici>rn or crime, whichever it NAV be
called, that seeks to turn the slaves of the
Southern States loose to overrun the North,
and enter into competition with the white
Iaboring classes, thus degrading their
manhood 10y placing them on an equally
with the negroes in their occupation, is
insulting to our race and merits our EN-.
phatic and unqualified condemnation.
