adopted American citizens that is given
to native born, and all necessary laws
be passed to protect emigrants in the alb
sence of power in the State for that pur-
pose.
Eleventh-It is the immediate duty
of Congress to fully investigate the effect
of the immigration and importation of
Mongolians on the moral and material
interests of the country.
Twelfth-The Republican party rec
ognize with approval the Substantial ad-
vance recently made toward the estab-
lishment of equal rights for women by
the many important amendments effect
-ed-by Republican Legislatures in the
laws which concern the personal and
property relations of wives, mothers and
widows, and by the appointment ard
election of women to the superintendent

trusts. The honest demands of this class
of citizens for additional rights and priv
ileges and immunities should be treated
with respectful consideration.
Thirteenth-The Constitution confers
upon Congress sovereign power over the
1io-,; Ao,,o, of A. TT,;4ol CAoAo- e.. Al -.
government. And in the exercise of this
power it is the right and duty of Con-
gress to prohibit and extirpate in the
Territories that relic of barbarism, poly
gamy and we demand such legislation
as will secure this end, and the suprem-
aey of American institutions in all the
Territories.
FOurteenth-The pledges which our
nation has given to our soldiers and sail
ors must be fulfilled. The grateful peo-
pie will always hold those who perilled
their lives for the cOuntry's preservation
in the kindest remembrance.
Fifteenth-We sincerely deprecate all
sectional feeling and tendencies. We
therefore note with deep solicitude that
the Democratic Party counts as its chief
hope of success upon the electoral vote
of a united South, secured through the
efforts of those who were recently array
ed against the nation, and we invoke the
earnest attention of the country to the
grave truth that success thus achieved
would reopen sectional strife and imper.
il the national honor and human rights.
Sixteenth-We charge the Democratic
Party as being the same in character and
/ spirit as when it sympathized with trea.
son, and with making its control of the
House of Representatives the triumph
and opportunity of the nations recen
foes; with reasserting and applaudine
in the national Capitol the sentiment O
unrepentant rebellion ; with sending Un
ion soldiers to the rear with deliberate
ly proposing to repudiate the plighteC
T. faith of the Government; with bein,
equally false and imbecile upon the over
shadowing financial question; wit
thwarting the ends of justice by its par
tisan mismanagement and obstruction O
investigation; with proving itself thrc
the period of its ascendancy in the lowe
house of Congress utterly incompetent t
administer Government We warn th
country against trusting party thu
alike unworthy, recreant and incapable
Seventeenth-The National Admins
: tration merits commendation for its hon
: orable work iD the management of dc
mestic and foreign affairs, and Presider
Grant deserves the continued and heart
; gratitude of the American people for hi
patriotism and his immense services
c war and in peace.
