WHEREAS, The Republicans of Kansas
in convention assembled for the purpose of
electing delegates TO unite with the delegates
OF other States on June ), ensuing, for the
purpose of nominating the next President and
Nice-President of the United States, desire
to give renewed and most emphatic express
sion to their confidence in the principles,
their pride in the record, and their faith in
the future of that national political Organiza-
ton which carried the country through the
difficulties, and preserved amid the disasters
of one of the stormiest conflicts of all histO-
~, and which has addressed itself TO the
solution of those delicate and difficult prob
lens which are the general legacy of all wars,
and more especially of such civil strife as
ours, in such a manner as with such local
exceptions as would be inseparable from any
policy of qualification TO secure to the coun-
try at large n degree of internal peace. Or
ganic unity, financial standing and credit,
and general business prosperity which
are the wonder and admiration of all
the nations of the earth, and believing as
this Convention, that this satisfactory con-
dition of public affairs is largely attributable
TO the patient courage and wisdom Of the
man who was first the trusted commander
lu-SDlti vi siiu iIiSU ttc HUH
orei President Of the councils Of the Repub-
lie. II is therefore
Resolred, That the delegates this day
chosen to attend the Philadelphia National
Convention, be and hereby are instructed to
cast their votes for the patriot President and
citizen soldier, Ulyssus S. Grant, who, in !
the dark and disastrous days of the Repub- |
lie, displayed those qualities Of courage,
wisdom, loyalty and unyielding persistency |
which inspired the friends of freedom with !
new energy, and hope filled and fred the |
gallant soldiers of the Union with the spirit |
to fight, and if need he, 10 die in its defense,
and which crowned our long conflict with |
the ineslimable boon of 4 complete victory |
and permanent peace, and who, in the less !
dangerous. but more diiiicult duties to which /
greaifnl people called him, has |
proved himself an able, steady and successful /
pilot of the ship Of State amid conflicting.
opinion and trying exigencies, the earnest 1
advocate of all judicious attempts at political !
reform, the foremost friend of all oppressed |
and distressed people, Of whatever condition
or color, who are struggling for the inalien-
able rights ofperfect equality before the Law. /
TIE undaun,ed defender Of our national /
claims and equities in the great parliament |
of nations; whose administration in short has |
brought us a degree of prosperity at home I
and respect and dignity abroad which it .
