dents duties are chiefly executive, and
that the President must obey the Con-
stitution as the supreme law of the
land, and obey and enforce the laws of
Congress, whose duty it is to repeal
laws when found that they have be-
come obnoxious. Second-Tbat the
political results Of the war must be ac-
copied and upheld in good faith, and
that the Constitutional amendments,
and laws enacted in pursuance
thereof, must be fully respected.
Third-The broadest democratic
ground will be taken on the Chinese
question; that Columbia is the asylum
and home of the oppressed of all lands,
but she will not tolerate the enslape-
ment of labor in any form, whether by
foreign or local contract. Fourth
That the duty of the President to make
recommendations to Congress is to be
pursued in no narrow, but in a thor
oughly national sense, and as local in
terests may conflict, the duty Of re.
conciliating matters over which sections
may dispute belongs to Congress, the
