Pierce-reported as follows:
The Republicans of Wisconsin in the state
convention assembled, reassert their adherence
to those principles of liberty and nationality by
which the Republican party of the United States
has given higher direction and sustained
progress to the civilization of the western
world. They declare it to be the duty of the
nation to protect every citizen whomsoever. and
wherever he may be within its borders, in free
and honest ballot for national officers. and that
the peace of the United States should abide
with each of its citizens, however humble.
and wherever he may go or dwell within the
limits of this broad union, They rejoice that
the resumption of specie payments making our
paper dollars the absolute equivalent OF the
precious metals and accomplished by the Re-
publican party, has brought our country to q
new era of prosperity, and are resolved that the
principle of convertibility shall be unfalteringly
maintained. They accord to President Hayes
the profound admiration and respect which he
merits for the honesty and purity of his adj
minstration, and heartily approve and endorse
his course in presenting determined front
against the attempts of the dominant party in
congress to curtail the just powers of the ma
tional government and recognizing the eminent
character and fitness of the gentlemen whose
names are prominently mentioned in connec-
ton with the Republican nomination for presi-
dent, and believing the national convention
will decide wisely, and for the highest
interest of the country they do not regard it as
proper to instruct their delegates to that con-
yention; but, having full confidence in the wis
dom and judgment Of the delegates there to be
assembled, they hereby pledge to the Republi-
can candidate nominated by that convention,
of Wisconsin toward his election.
OF the delegates elected, nine are for
Washburpe, seven for Blaine, three for
Sherman and one for Grant.
