Holmes County Republican. [volume] (Millersburg, Holmes Co., O. [Ohio]) 1870-1895, 1872-06-13

the principal. and the revenue, except
so much as may be derived from a tax
on tobacco and liquors, be raised by du-
ties on importations, the duties on
which should be so adjusted, as to aid
in securing remunerative wages to labor
and promote the industries, growth and
prosperity of the whole country
Sth. " e hold in undying honor the
soldiers and sailors whose valOr saved
the Union. Their pensions are sacred
debt of the nation, and the widows and
orphans of those who died for their
generous and grateful people. We ia
yor such additional legislation as will
extend the bounty of the government
to all our soldiers and sailors who were
honorably discharged, and who, in the
line of duty, became disabled, without
regard to the length of service or cause
of such discharge.
9th. The doctrine of Great Britain
and other European powers concerning
allegiance, "Once subject, always q
subject" having at last, through the
efforts of the Republican party, been
abandoned, and the American idea of
individuals right to transfer of allie
glance, having been accepted by Euro
pean nations, it is the duty OF our gov
ernment to guar with jealous care the
rights of adoptei citizens against the
assumption of unauthorized claims by
their former governments and we urge
the continued and careful encourage
ment and protection of voluntary i'm
migration. . al
10th. The franking privilege ought to
be abolished, and the way prepared for
a speedy reduction in the rates of post
age.
1lth. Among the questions which
press for attention, is that which con-
Germs the relations of capital and labor,
and the Republican party recognize the
duty of so shaping legislation as to Sc
cure the full protection and amplest
field for capital, the largest opportunity
and just share of the mutual profits
of these two great servants of civiliza-
ton.
18th. We hold that Congress and the
President have only fulfilled their i'm
perative duty in their measures for the
suppression of violent and reasonable
organizations in certain lately rebellious
regions, and for the protection of the
ballot box, and therefore they are enti-
tied TO the thanks of the nation.
18th. We denounce the reputation of
tie public debt in any form or disguise
as a national crime. We witness with
pride the reduction of the principal of
the debt and of the rates of interest up
! on the balance, and confidently expect
that our excellent national currency
will be perfected by a speedy resump
tion of specie PAYMENT.
I4th. The Republican party, mindful
of its obligations to the loyal women of
America, for their noble devotion to the
cause of freedom, and their admission
| to wider fields of usefulness is received
with satisfaction, and the honest demands
of any class of citizens for additional
rights should be treated with respectful
consideration. ..
