tion, reassembled reaffirming the cardi-
nal principles Of the organization, which
have become received maXims Of policy,
State and National, declare on specific
points the series of sentiments following:
First-The States are one as nation

revenue with incidental protection to
American industry.
Fourth-We stand by free education,

ton of all for it. support no division Of

Fifth-Under our Republican system
of government. there should be no con-
ncction directly or Indirectly between

fail to profit by the experience of foreign
governments, where the efforts Of the
church are in contest with the State. con-
stitute an evil of great magnitude. and

ment of pay and bounties.

public domain should be scrupulou:ly re-
served for occupation by actual settlers
Ninth-The determination of the goy-
ernment to collect the revenue and pre-
