ming and made the temporary organization
permanent The Committee on Resolutions

which Is .he assertion that the majority OF
the Republican party OF Kansas have deter
mind 70 coaltsce with and adopt the dog
mas Of the Prohibition party, and that In
pursuing this course IL has departed from
the true Faith Of Republcan!sm. We have
repeatedly protested against this suicidal
course. snd in spirit OF Cancellation and
concord have appealed 10 them in the light
81 previous experience TO consult again the
viii OF the PEOPLE on the yeXatious
question o; prohibition. That request
was contemptuously refused, and our
warnings have been answered by snoors
sad orprobrious epithets. Nov, In the
name oi the na,iona, Republican party OF
this country. We arraign the Prohibition
majority faction Of this State ss untrue TO
Republican principles and an cnenyto Re-
publican success. We arraign IL a. an or
canization that ia plotting and conspiring
all over the country 10 defeat the Republic
can ticket ia Kansas they remain nomi.
nally with the Republican party solely be-
cause that party can be used TO carry their
pet hobby. Such being the case, and de-
Ginning to accept their doctrines. we prefer
them as declared enemies rather than
ueachorous friends. We condemn the
cowaTdlce and bypocrL u those Repub-
bean leaders who have permitted this for
cign and false issue To be thrust upon the
party in this STATE. ON their heads shall
rest the grave responsibility.
We endorse the platform OF the national
Republican party and pledge our unqusli-
fed support 10 its nominees. James G.
Blaine and John A. Logan. We especially
endorse The action Of the National Conven-
ton, through It's Committee on Resolutions,
in rejecting The abominable doctrine OF pro.
hibi,ion. and we he'd that the action OF said
Convention upon that, as upon all other
uue>tionS. constitutes the controlling rula
Of action for an true Republicans through |
out the country; and that while support
inc Blaine and Logan. we cannot consist !
emily support IN OdiouS doctrine which |
was expressly rejected by the Convention |
which placed them In nomination.
