Report of Committee on Resolutions.
The committee on resolutions made
the following report:
The D, mocratic Clubs of North Caro-
lima. in convention assembled, renew
party as the only safety Of free peo-
PIE, and heartily endorse the last Ma
tional and State platforms.
Believing that the establishment of
permanent clubs in every precint Of the
State, where neighbors can meet and dis
cuss political and economic questions,
will greatly conduce to the political ed
ucation Of our people, aud continued
Democratic supremacy, we cordially
| commend their formation, and urge that
| they 5ecf} III constant communication
with the secretary OF the State Associa
| ton, TO the end that the sentiment of
Various sections of the State may be OBJ
tanned, and more perfect organization
| secured.
! We realize that the active work in
/ ~
young men in the party, and We pledge
our active and untiring energies to al
vance our party'S interest, and to pro
mote the ascendency Of the Democratic
party, which is synonymous with white
supremacy as essential to the well being
Of both races.
We favor the ado, tion of plan of or
ganization by the Democratic party by
which minority representation will b,
| secured IN the various conventions, a.
Democratic in principle and we reques
the State Democratic Executive commit
tee TO formulate such plan for future
use.
We point with pride to the wise ant
economic administration Of the Stat,
Penitentiary by its present management
under which it has been made self-sus
tainining, without conflicting with fre,
labor, and an annual saving Of NOR
than 500 GOO to the taxpayers Of tn
State effected, and congratulate th
Democratic party for having carried o.
this great reform.
We denOunce II unmeaSured terms tn
ELECTION Bill' which has passed til
House and is now before the Senate
known as the 'Force B,ll," as subversiv
Of the fundamental principles Of the con
stitution and revolutionary in its char
acter. 1t strikes down home rule an
self government by placing Feders
troops with Federal bayonets at ever
voting place to do the bidding of pal
tizan hirelings selected at Washington
encourages fraudulent elections, pro
; vides machinery for procuring dishoues
returns and false certificates Of election
fosters sectiOnalism and turns back th
tide Of friendship and good will whic
; has given prosperity to both sections
makes the legislative and eXecuti1
branches OF the government depend upo
the judiciary which it tends to degra6
into a partizan political tribunal, an
E invades the privacy and sanctity of tt
home by establishing a system of spi,
, over our land; and we call upon a
, young men irrespective of party to uni
! with US in preventing its passage by Il
Senate.
L We denounce the Mckinley tariff b
: recently passed by Congress, as being
: the interest Of the monied class ar
: against the masses. 1t increases the CO
q to the consumer Of the necessaries
y life, while decreasing the revenue to tt
= government, thus giving the manufa
turer additional powers for oppressic
and gain. We especially denounce
sectionalism as displayed in putin
> binding twine" used by the farmers
! the northwest on the free list, and refu
- ing to put on it jute bagging used
Is the Southern farmer, and increasing t
= duty on cotton ties 800 per cent. to t
: injury Of the Southern farmer. Such
action is iniquitous, unjust and section;
and calls for our seyerest condemnatlO
10 We condemn the policy of contract
pursued by the Republican party,
b which, while the value Of the dollar b
ce increased, that of the product of lat
at and the farm has diminished, with
E. corresponding decrease in the cost
