1t has kept aud CAUSED to be kept the pledged faith
OF the nation to it's creditors, faith in its i'll
tegty made its existence possible and to its soldiers
nd sailors whose arms preserved it.
Il has by a judicial system of government

which eighteen years ago were beyond the frontier
but which are low great and prosperous States.

1t has in all the States protected the rights of
every citizen both the black man and tha white and
has, after years OF effort against the obstacles Of in-
vee1ate prejudice, sectional hate and bitter opposi
ton to the democratic party, nsumated restored
union resting upon the acquiessen and free viii Of
a reconcilsd people and no longer enforced Ivy the
sword. -.
1t has been demonstrated by Legislatures and in
courts that no constitutional right inheres in the
government to protect the people against monopo-
lies from the powerful, arbitrary and rapacious.
AS declaration of principles the Republicans of
the State OF Minnesota III convention assembled
RESOLVE,
Frst-That in it's efforts to restore harmony at the
South, in administering the various executive de-
Eartnents SO that ~ faint of corruption rests upon
OF the people from the domination of Office
holders, i'll it's redemption of its pledges of
civil service REFORM and in it's financial measures and
policy the administrations of President Hayes merits
the confidence and hearty operation of the people,
and We feel no disposition to that admins
uatlon for endorsements caused by incidental and
in the situation,
Second-We believe that the faith of the nation is
pledged to pay its debt in coin. We urge persistence
in the policy of speedy specie resumption because
we believe it to be the policy Of common honesty,
wise economy and prudent craftsmanship.
We warn the people against the doctrine of an un-
limited and lrredeemable paper currency issued by
the United States pernicious delusion because it
is unconstitutional under the decisions of the SUI
preme court Of the United States, because it will I'M
settle values and betray the resources of the country
into demoraizing speculation; because it will bear
with disastrous force upon the abOring by put
ting into or GRAFTON the well-known law that under
such currency the prices of the necessaries Of life
rise first while the wages of labor rise last and then
never to an equality Of purchasing power; because
under such policy the price Of agricultural
products is fixed at and by the gold
the farmer sells at gold standard but is compelled
to pay currency prices for all he buys because such
policy is pra tical conscation and is the ally of
communism, is dishonest and has brought disaster
to all nations that have persisted in it.
1N'Tu-We demand greater economy in State ex-
penses and particularly those incident to the chara
Die institutions and If necessary, such legislation
will cause to all combinations by which inor-
dinate sums are sought to be secured for these pur
poses.
F0urth-We condemn as revolutionary the effort
cemg made by the Democratic party to usurp the
Presidency against the decision of the tribunal by
which all electoral questions in that behalf have been
definitely settled.
Ftfh-We declare it to be the sense of this party
that the Democratic party, nnder false pretense of
economy and reform, has unnecessarily impaired the
efficiency of the army.
Sirth-That we commend the present State adj
mfnistration.
And, submitting these reasons to the Judgment of
the people of this State, confidently ask the con-
tinuance of their confidence.
