Senators Schurz and Trumbull now came upon the
platform and their appearance was the signal for long
continued cheering Prof. Theo. G. Glaubensklee then
read the following:
DECLARATION OF PRINCIPLES.
We believe that the political action Of individuals and
conventions should be left free from the influence OF
poca patronage that business men should not, under
the fear of unjust official interference with their affairs
he compelled TO pay tribute for political purposes.
We believe that public offices are, or should be- created
for public convenience and not as rewards for partisan
services for personal aggrandzement that the acts
of officials should confined within the strict letter Of
the laws creating such officials.
We believe that the triumph Of Republican principles
Is of paramount importance to the country and that tn,
success Of those principles, in the approaching nationa
election, does not depend on any one individual.
We believe that the prosperity Of the country demand
radical and immediate reform, in all the de
partmepts of the public service, civi, military, ant
naval and that the oneterm principle for the Presi
dental Office will conduce to that end than am
other measure.
