THE RESOLUTIONS,
The following resolutions were ther
read and adODted:

read and adopted:
ResoIoed, That the National Democratic
party has always maintained the dignity of
citizenship, irrespective of creed or place of
birth. and has never failed, while in power,
to insist upon a due recognition of that dogma
and the rights and liberties of citizens athOme
and abroad.
ResoIUed, That the official record that Gov.
Cleveland has made is an ample guarantee
that as President of the United States he will
not fail in his duty to support the principles
cited in the platform of the Democratic Ma
tiOnal Convention, and in the protection of
the rights of all citizens.
Res0Ered, That opposition to the Democratic
party. under whatever guisc or name it has
been known in the past from the davs of the
Federalists down TO the days of modern Re
publicanism, has been opposed to the eXten
sion of modern citizenship, Indifferent to the
rights and wrongs OF adopted citizens, pro-
scFiptive in Its policy, narrow and Liberal in
its views. and since the expiration of its orig
inal mission, the abolition OF slavery, nOtOri
ously insincere in its claims and pretensions.
1t has claimed to the prejudice of the honor Of
the American people. that IL, as a party, sup
nressed the rebellion. 1t has claimed to the
detriment and insult of Democratic soldiers
that il organized, made and led our armies,
and il has failed to uphold the rights of in
jured citizens abroad, thereby bringing the
name OF the United states into dlscredit.
ResOIred. That James e. Blaine. during the
20 wears Of his official life, never interested
himself in the welfare Of American citizens
who, while abroad, were deprived OF their
liberties and rights without dutnOFlbY OF
law, and while Secretary OF state not only
failed but refused to exert the influence of
the United States Government in behalf OF
such citizens.
ResoIUsd, That believing in the extension
and protection of citizenship and in the prin-
ciples set forth in these resolutions. and hold
ing them to be of high Importance to
the American people, we earnestly
recommend to our fellow citizens to support
as fitting representatives OF that party which
has always asserted and maintained these
principles and made American citizenship at
home and abroad, the nominees of the Ma
tional Democratic Convention at Chicago,
Gov. Cleveland for President and Thomas A.
Hendricks for Vice President.

"A SUGGESTION TO LABORERS
Wac Have Been Thrown Out Of EN-
plOyment by Eastern Factories.

Wac Have Been Thrown Out Of En-
ployment by Eastern Factories.
EDITOR TRIBUNE: In reading the dispatches
from different parts of the eastern states, we
frequently see that mills have shut down and
that hundreds and in the aggregate many thous-
ands of men and women have been thrown out
of employment. 1t seems fair to suppose that
most of these people have been economical as
we'll as industrious, and that they have laid up
some of their earnings in the past. 1t is also
fair to suppose that they will dislike to remain
idle, while they see their hard earned cash melt
ing away in expenses. Now it seems orr duty,
we who know what matchless opportunities this
country offers to people of small means to make
good homes for themselves and join the army of
independent land owners, who always live we'll
and are free and happy whether cotton or woolen
cloth is dear or cheap, whether iron is up
or down. and whether the mills and factories
in the east are running or standing still.
say it seems duty we owe to humanity to do
something to let them know Of these chances to
get free homes for themselves and their families
where they will Fl d railroads, churches, school
houses and all the religious and social privileges
of the east, coupled with good soil and good
climate, where through the generosity Of our
government they may enter 160 acres of land, go
onto and become the owner of it for the trifing
sum Of $i8. It is true most of our people have
business of Importance of their own to attend to-
ana could not afford to leave it to become mis-
sionaries OF immigration agents. But, it would
seem unnecessary. Let man who has been an
operative in one of ttoee factories recently shut
down, man who is personally known to
hundreds of these people now idle, take a little
pass book and call upon the people be-
is acquainted with and take the mares Of
such as would like to become Independent
and provide against old age, q home from which
no man can drive them, give notice of the time
and place for holding meeting to perfect ar
rangements; then charter cars and come on and
all settle in body, thereby losing not the asso-
Citations of former years. but simply transplant
ing them to q country where. surrounded by
competency, that is sure to follow honest labor,
those associations can be enjoyed to the fullest
extent. Whoever shall make himself q Joshua
and shall lead his people to the promised land
will merit the geatitude not only of those who
come with him, but of their posterity for years
to come.
