Whereas, The election of the Hon.
p. b. S. Pinchback to the position of
Lieutenant Governor at the present
political crisis of the Republican party
in this State, in opposition to the COM
bination formed by the so-called Re-
publicans and the Democracy, fur

party in this State, to the discontinue
OF an unprincipled set Of political
vipers, who, for the past eighteen
months have been sucking the life

same; be it
RESOLVED, That the thanks of this
Club are hereby rendered to his Ex-

HALL SIXTH WARD REPUBLICAN MOTHER
Club, New Orleans, December 10, 1871
At regular meeting of this body, the fol-
lowing resolutions were presented by
MIR. Albert Mccarthy, and unanimously
adopted
WHEREAS, By the election of P. 3. S.
Pinchback to the Presidency of the Senate
and Lieutenant Governorship of the State
of Louisiana in the stead of our most
lamented deceased, o. j. Dunn, it is
plainly shown and evidently demonstrated
that the moral and progressive ideas OF
the true principles of Republicanism are
still in perpetual course of ascendancy
in all that concerns the political standing
of the African race and
Whereas, 1t also shows and demonstrates
that the exaltation of P. B. S. Pinchback
to these most digniied honors is regarded
by every sensible Republican as a Just
acknowledgment paid TO his political
merits in the defense of down-trodden
people, and also as an omen of concilia-
ton and victory over the factionists who
are trying actually to dismember the Re
publican party here F; and
Whereas, These glorious achievements
we owe, undoubtedly, to the moral courage,
ability and good will that have always
animated his Excellency H. c. Warmoth
in the management of public affairs be it
ResOlced, That We, members of the
Sixth Ward Republican Mother Club, ap-
preciating the aforesaid considerations,
heartily approve and indorse Governor
Warmoth's conduct for the extra call that
he has made upon that single body of the
General Assembly, which has succeeded
in carrying the party to such beneficial
result
BE Il further resolved, That as part of
the mighty apd sovereign State of Louis
iapa, we demand of our mandatories at
the next Assembly to tender all their
legal aid, support and confidence to the
executive, in all just and reasonable means
that may be conducive to secure reform,
progress and liberty in our beloved Louis
lana
BE II further resolred, That two copies
OF the foregoing resolutions be sent by the
Secretary OF this club, and respectfully
submitted, to Hon. H. j. Campbell and
Hon. V. Z. Mccarthy for guidance, and
that the same be printed in the New Or
leans Republican and semi-weekly Louis
ianidn.
