convention and the committee which called
it, are frauds. How could they endorse
fraud We suppose just simply because
they had got their hands 10 little last vim
ter. For Congressman, General A. L. Lee,
Of Doniphan county, vas nominated. He
is good man, and his friends say if be
was here he would repudiats the whole
thing. Ex-Gov. Robinson was present and
said in speech that Lincoln had damaged
the party and the country, and overriden
the Law and Constitution. The Govern
ment he said is fast falling to pieces from
inherent imbee;lity. For himself. he pre-
ferred Nc Clellan to Lincoln. Such speech
es were eneored heartily. The following
are the resolutions adopted by the convsn-
ton:
Resolved, That we are in favor of Wig
orous prosecution of the war against the
rebellion, and no compromise with traitors
against the Government.
Resolved, That as Kansas in the past has
been most lavish of her men and means in
sustaining the country against treason, so
in he future she will ever be found among
the foremost in standing by aud supporting
tie Government.
Resolved, That we endorse the platform
of the Baltimore Convention, and most
earnestly recommend that all loyal voters
in Kansas give to Lincoln and johnson
their undivided support.
ReSOtVed, That the plunderers and cor
ruptionists who are robbng the nation of
the material aid necessary TO carry on the
war with success, are the most efficient aid :
ers of Jeff Davis and the rebellion, and
must be put down.
ResoLVed, That the practice of the ut
most economy, consistent with an efficient
administration of the affairs of the Govern
ment, is imperauvely the du'y of both ma
t!onal and State administration.
| RESOLVED, That the noble sons of Kan
sas, who have been and now are in ne field
asserting the supremacy Of the Nation over
armed treason, and comforting brilliant re-
nown upon our young State. deserve and
receive the most hearty sympathy and sup
port of the people of the State.
ResOtUed, That the people have right
to assemble In peaceful manner to consult
for all lawful purposes and that the threats
of violent interference by faction of cor
ruPt revolutiouists with the exercise of the
election franchise, receive our unqualified
disapprobation.
| RESOLVED, That we believe it to be the
duty of all good men, irrespective of party
to unite in putting down the zone man pow
er" in Kansas the corrupt and tyrannlcal
exercise of which has brought disgrace and
untold evil upon the State.
The last resolution is what's the matte
| with thpcn
appointments. We do not know what they
mean by the resolution next to the last.
We never heard anybody talk of hurting
any of these gentlemen.
THE BIG SIDE SHOW SNAKES, MONKEYS, ETC.
The big side show, called the Demoera-
! cy of Kansas, met on the 18th, and did not
do anything but adopt the resolutions
which we give below. They concluded to
support the ticket of the 18Th convention,
after Judge Thacher had denounced arb,
trary arrests and the suspension of the ha-
beas corpus, and as they knew him to be
anti Lincoln. It Will be seen by the reso-
lutions that they do not endorse the Chi
cago platform, but just simply gup down
Little Mac. They could not go The copper
head platform, and the pseudo war DEM
ocratic candidate. They could not go the
dodge. The Topeka Record says:
''Ike Eaton, in bis speech, we are told, said
that it was inexpedient to make any nomi-
nations, because it was the bounden duty
of every democrat to do everything in his
power to break down Jim Lane, aud they
could do that better by voting for theFraud
ticket than by making nominations. The
Republicans of Kansas have always beaten
all mongrel Democratic tickets heretofore,
and they will do it again by larger major
ity than ever"
The following are the resolutions of the
Democracy:
WHEREAS, The Delegate Convention of
the Republican party, this day assembled
at the capital, has passed resolution re-
affirming the principles and rs-establishing
the rights guaranteed by the constitution
of the United States to every citizen thereof,
and has declared that liberty of speech and
of the press shall remain inVioIate, and shall
be maintained at all hazards throughout
this State, and baYe moreover nominated
candidates for the various Offices to be f lied
at the election next, men who have given
evidence of devotion to those principles,
and whose past records afford ample guar
antee that their principles will be faithfully
carried out in the administration of the
government of the State, therefore,
ResoLOed, That this convention deem il
iDexpedient for the Democratic party of
Kansas to nominate State ticket to be sup
