PREAMBLE AND RESOLUTIONS
OF THE-
Nevada Union Convention.

Upon the entrance Of Nevada into the National
Union feeling deeply the Importance Of taking posi-
ton such to inspire confidence In our sister states,
and 10 rebuke treason TO our nationality, be II open
or inSidOus, and to sustain by our 1rot acts In the
capital Of State the integrity of our country, the
honor Of our Government and the glory Of our Tree
institutions, We do resolve as follows:
Resoiped, That the Union party Of the state oi
Nevada recognize no political differences In this
hour Of our countrys trial, and cheerulIy enrOlls
among Its members every citizen, native or adopted
who prefers his country to party, VINO Is loyal 10 e
Union and In favor Of coercion anu the suppression
oil the existing rebellion by the only sure means, tnC
strong arm OF military power, who Is opposed 70
concessions TO rebels with arms IN their hanIS, and
who Is willing 10 use the last man aud the lastuolar
ifnecesSty demands, TO maintain and preserve Tue
Union OF the United States OF America.
Resoleed, That Abraham Lincoln and Andrew
johnson are worthy leaders OF the Army OF the
Cnion that the platform and resolutions aloPted ~
the Baltimore Convention. holden June, 1874, meets
our hearty approval, not only In their general tenof.
out especially In their advocacy OF that great neces-
Sity to our Western EmpIre-a Pacihc Railroad.
That placing ourselves upon the platform, We chal-
lenge All colerS TO wrestirom our grasp the eectO-
ra votes OF the virgin State OF Nevada predestned
TO be given by loyal hearts and hands 10 the mem-
bers of the Convention.
Resolred, That We favor the passage Of laws secu-
ring the general education OF the children in the
State by means OF free common schools. believing
Intelligence the only palladium OF Republican Gov
ernment, and of laws guarding the highest right and
privilege nave the elective frunchiSe, from the
influence OF power, money AMI fraud. and OF further
laws tDht Shall pTrSeIFc BOOl lultu VctNec tue PSV
pIe by enforcing their private contracts IN the spirit
and power they have made them, AMI in such cur
rency as they may agree upon, ani Of such laws as
shall secure l detail the strict economy enoinea py
our Constitution, and the most exact accountability
of all public officers 10 the great source OF political
power, the people.
Resoired, That our wise and beneacent Govern
nlent has always exhibited not only real generosity
but true policy In refralning from tile sale OF the
mineral lands, and in permitting their use, oecupa-
t!on and development by labor and capital. That II
Is to be deeply regretted that traitors In our midst
are using the wealth derived from indulSent coun-
try In attempts to subver It's Institutions anu eer-
lies and that while We deprecate any general inter
ference by the Government with the existing state
Of affairs still the proper exercise oE righteous In
dignaton against such ingrates should excite no sur
