We solr'unly pledge our most untring cf-
forts: that the accomplishment of this
end is the grard question now pend ne.
transconii all others in importance, aud
that tho present nmin"nt p-ris Of the
country demand the union of all conserva.
tive hearts and hands, irrespective Of for
mcr or present party names. in vigorous
effort to maintain the Federal Constitution
in its integrity and secure its operation
according to the spirit aud intent Of its
founders.
lth. Rcso'red, That the Radical plan
of dcpriving portion of the United States
of those rights always possessed by them
since the day of l776-of cnfranchisng
their people, is so absolutely opposed, not
only to the dearest provisions OF the Fed
rral Constitution, but to every sound ilea
of practical snship, is so thorough
~ an'aSonistic to those principles Of re.
served sights and Of municipal govern
mrnts regulating their own dom.stc af-
fairs. that undcrirs our republican system,
tha it is the duty of the people of WASH
ing on Territory, regardless of past poiti-
cal divis. .ons, to pronounce their cond"m-
nation of the Radical party by electing
men who love, aud are determined to pre-.
serve. the American Constitution and the
American Union.
oh. ResoIred, That while that portion
of the Representatives of the States OF this
Union. who exclude from the legislative
halls the representatives Of ten States. are
labo,ing to subvrrt Our Government, we re.
.joicc in the fact that the Supreme Court of
the United States, by its recent decisions
in favor OF the rights Of American citizens,
las proved that that august tribunal will
prrform without fear or favor its high and
solemn duties.
9th. Resolred, That our cordial thanks
are due and are hereby rendered TO Presi-
den, johnson for his constitute onal efforts
res sting Unauthorized legislation and sd-
vorating the rights of all the States to
their Congressional representation, and
that We will unitedly sustain him in these
his just aud patriotic acts.
7Ih. Resoircd. That we nre uncondi-
tionally opposed to the late law Of Con-
gress, called the Reconstruction Bill, and
the supplement thereto, believing that the
intention and tendency Of such legislation
is to make the whole civil power of the
United States subordinate 10 the military,
contrary to the true intent, spirit and
meaning of the Cons tuition.
Sth ResoIrcd, That We believe this
is a white mans Government, made by
white mrn. and that rone but white have
aigh; to administer or control il. and that
We are therefore opposed to the principles
of the late laws Of Congress copferring
the rights Of citizenshir-ihc elective fran
chise-and III" right to occupy and hold
the Public domain upon all persons. with
on, ip.ard TO race or color. and that We
shall expect and require our Delegate in
Congress. to use his best endeavors to pro-
cur. q rep-al Of said laws.
9th. Rcsared, That we ere in favor of
,h. repeal of the laws Of Congress unju-tly
