TOPEKA, KAN.-Rev. DR.. S. F. McCabe, OF
the committee on resolutions, presented a
report of the committee, of which the follow
Ing Is a synopsis:
The convention congratulates the people
OF Kansas upon the successful enforcement
of the prohibitory law, and sends greeting
and assurance of sympathy to other states
engaged in the agitation of prohibition. The
convention stands irrevocably by the prohib-
itory law and pledges itself to resist all vio-
latlons of the same.
Resolution one calls upon our delegation
in congress to take action looking to an
amendment of the interstate commere law,
regulating the importation of liquors into
states that have prohbitory liquor laws. and
to prevent the sale of revenue stamps to
those who have not conformed to the state
laws. The resolution commends the senate
for the passage of the act abolishing liquor
in the army.
Resolution two commends the teachers of
the state for their stand on prohibition. and
asks all other organized callings to take such
a position.
Resolution three indicted and arraigned
the saloon for its iniquity, and condemned
the ''second shameful invasion of Kansas by
Missouri ruffians."
Resolution four opposed the calling of an
extra session of the Legislature for the pur-
pose of resubmitting the prohibitory amend
meIt.
Resolution five branded as false and mis-
leading statements circulated by resubmis-
sionists that the business interests of the
state have been injured by prohibition.
l Resolution six called upon the county and
municipal officers to be more Jealous than
ever in the present emergency: also the peo-
pie to elect good men to the Legislature.
Resolution seven endorsed the dissenting
opinion of Justices Gray, Harlan and Brewer
IN the Iowa case, and quoted the concluding
paragraph of same.
Resolution eight treats with denial and de-
rision the suggestion that the supreme court
decision Is fatal to prohibition in this state.
Under God, the people, by their own act,
have driven the saloon from the borders of
Kansas: no human power can secure its re-
turn. We declare undying, eternal hostility
to the reopening of the accursed saloon upon
our fair domain, within whose bounds our
children live, and beneath whose sod rest the
ashes of those dear to us. In the interest of
ourselves and our families. of our neighbors
who are just entering the struggle which we,
by so much effort and sacrifice have success
fully made, of those who now dwell in this
happy commonwealth, of the thronging mil
lions whose advancing footsteps we now hear
we sOlemnly pledge ourselves to resist the
return of the saloon by all the means which
God may bestow upon u.s."
''Thls is our platform: The gates of hell
shall not prevail against it."

Senator Teller spoke on the silver bill. He
criticised the Window bill As a scheme that
met the approval of the gold mono-metallists
everywhere, and that was reason enough to
warrant suspicion. OF the bill reported from
the finance committee. he said it was founded
on some system of financial policy, and there
was some philosophy in it, but it did not pro-
pose to use silver as money. Its funda-
mental idea was, as in the other bill, the
silver was metal and nothing else.
