STRONG RESOLUTIONS

STRONG RESOLUTIONS
CINCINNATI, o., June l2.-The follow.
ing is the substance of the resolutions Of.
tered by William Anpt, and which were
referred to the Committee on resolutions
amidst great excitement:
| First-Ohio Republicans are not opposed
to the investigation of frauds in the presi-
DENTAL contest OF 1876, but demand that
| all investigation be impartial and include
all States where fraud Is alleged to have
been committed.
Second-The title Of Pr, -ident TIaves IS
beyond dispute or congressional interfer-
ence, and the American people are op-
posed to all payment OF reoel claims.
Third-That We tender prostrste Repub-
licans, South, many Of whom being ex-
Union soldiers, are ostracised as carpet bag
gers and scalawags, our earnest sympathy
in their struggle for liberty, end We will
always honor the name Of G-u. Grant for
his patriotic efforts in L,nalf Of Southern
Republicans.
The convention re-assembled at two
O'Clock, and Hon. VIM. Lawrence was chcs-
en- permanent chairman. Judge Wu.
White was nominated for Judge of the Su-
preme Court, and Milton Barres for Secre-

The principles OF the Republican party
as written III the history OF the country as
specifically declared in the national plat
form OF the party as made sacred by the
blood OF patriots shed in defence OF the
Union and freedom, We hereby re-afiirm. |
To the soldiers OF the war, who sacrificed so !!
much in defence OF our common country,
there is debt OF gratitude due which can |
never be fully discharged. The pledges |
made by the Republican party and by our
PATRIOTIC PEOPLE
is binding and sacred obligation, never to
be forgOtten-never TO be impaired, but to
the fullest extent to be fulfilled, We.
therefore, denounce as Unpatriotic, heart
less and Infamous the act of the Ohio Leg
lslature, introduced by desertsr, bounty
Jumper and convict, intended and calcu-
lated to drive from the Soldiers Orphan
Home, the orphan children of deceased or
disabled soldiers, or to

present needing repOse in order that capital

nay revive, thus increasing the demand I,
or labor, the situation ought to be accep-
ed and We oppose the further agitation Of
he question at this time as in urious to .

ults. The disposition is exhibited by con-
eryative men in the South to
