RESOLUTIONS.
When, in the economy OF Providence,
this land was to be purged OF human sla.
very, and when the strength Of govern
ment Of the people, by the people, and for
the people, was to be demonstrated, the
Republican party came into power. It's
deeds have passed into history, and We
look back to them with pride. Incited
by their memories and high aims for the
good Of the country and mankind, and
looking to the future with unfaltering
courage and hope, we, the representatives
of the Republican party in National
Convention assembled, make the following
declaration OF principles:
l. The United States Of America is n
nation, not-a league. By the combined
working OF national and State govern.
ments under their respective constitu.
tions, the rights OF every citizen are
secured at home and protected abroad
and the common welfare promoted.
2. The Republican party has preserved
those governments to the one hundredth
anniversary Of the nations birth, and
they are now the embodiments of the
great truths spoken at its cradle, that all
men are created equal; that they are en-
dowed by their creator with certain
inalienable rights, among which are life,
liberty and the pursuit Of happiness that
for the attaipmeut Of these ends govern
ments have been instituted among men
deriving their just powers from the
consent OF the governed, until those
truths are cheeriully obeyed or, II need
be, vigorously enforced the work Of
the Republican party is unfinished.
8. The permanent perfection OF the
Southern section Of the Union and the
complete protection OF all It's citizens in
the free enjoyment Of all the rights or
duties to which the Republican party
stands pledged, [Applausc.l The power

principles contained in the recent consti.
