their interests in all things re-

and we favor the enactment of
State and National laws provid-

employees by methods of vO!un-

which will avoid the waste, loss

We denounce the action of the
Democratic House of Represen-
tatives at its last session in strik-
ing from the bill to compensate |
the citizens of this State for |
losses sustained in the Indian
War of 1850 all claims for sup
plies furnished for the suppress
ion of Indian hostilities, and also
for services rendered during that
memorable struggle in which
the lives of large number of
our most respected citizens were
sacrificed.
VII.
We denOunce the pretense of
the Democratic party OF having
sympathy for the cause OF local
selt-government IN Ireland.
while the Democratic House of
Representatives, in Committee
Of the whole, repeatedly refused
to indorse that principle. In
the months Of April and June
last that body of Democratic
votes on three several occasions
rejected a resolution iudorSing a
free parliament FIR Ireland,
which is in the following words:
"ReSnlved, That the House
Of Representatives earnestly
Sympathize with Right Hon.
William a Gladstone and his
associates in their efforts to sS-
cure a free parliament for the
people OF Ireland. and congratu-
late the people of that hitherto
unhappy country, upon the
prospect of an early and success
mi termination oftheir long and
patriotic struggle for the right
If local self-government."
Thereby discouraging the
growth of liberal spirit
throughout Great Britain. {
