The committee on resolutions made the fo!-
lowing report:
The Republicans of New Hampshire in State con-
yention assembled desire once more TO attest the
devotion to the cardinal principles of the party and
place them on record that the whole world may see
kNoIto o,,I naf- fhn-a
fore
ReSOEued, That We are in favor of currency
based upon gold, of one free and untrammelled
ballot for every legal voter Norta and South, free
from intimidation or control of every sort, equal
rights for every citizen everywhere, and the securing
of these rights if absolutely necessary by the strong
arm of the general government and such conduct of
the civil service as shall result IN securing to the
country q thoroughly honest and expedient admins
tration of every department of the government.
That we arragn the Democratic party for its recre-
any to the privileges of free government amply at
tested by its adherence to the doctrine of State su
premacy its connvance at notification of laws for
protection of the rights of freedmen at the Souh its
attempt to count out by fraud and force the fairly
and legally elected legislature of Maine and its sub
serviency to the Southern ogarchy now endeavorlng
to secure by the legislative method that which they
failed to achieve by resort to arms in 1861.
That we heartily approve of the present attitude of
the administration upon all the great principles OF
the Republican party, and most especially ana en-
phatically of its conduct of the national finances by
that great finaucier, John Sherman of Ohio.
That we congratulate U. s. Grant, the most re-
nowned and illustrous citizen of the republic, on his
safe return from tour of the world, and we fer
venty wish that the afternoon of his remarkable life
may be made serene by exemption from strife a1d
happy in the respect and affection of grateful
country, whose unity he did so much preserve and
whose great destiny he did more than any of his COM
petitors to advance.
While we are in favor of sending an uninstructed
delegation to Chicago is earnest belief that the
man for the times above all others embodying every
element of triumphant candidate and successful
is James G. Blaine, of Maine
That any unit rule which seeks to compel dele
gate to vote for candidate not his choice, or OF his
constituents is yrannous and non-repubcan, and we
our delegates to Chicago so to vote on all
questions as to leave every delegate free to olow
his unfettered and honest judgment.
That our delegates to the Chicago convention are
to call the attention of that body to- the
of change in the existing basis OF dele
gates in future national Republican conventions, and
to the end that hereafter the number of delegates
from the different States may be determined by the
actual Republican vote cast at the last preceding
State or national election
That the Republicans of New Hampshire plsdge
give the nominee at Chicago their
hearty and enthusiastic sup port and rousi ng ma
iority at the polls next November.
The resolutions were adopted.
The convention reassembled in the after
noon and appointed new State committee and
adj Ourned.
