The committee on resolutions re-
ported the following, which was unan-
adopted:
We, the Republicans of the Seventh
Minnesota congressional district, in
assembled, do heartily en-
1orse the able administration of Pres
dent Harrison; the principles of an :
honest dollar; the protection of all :
American industries and workmen,
md the reciprocity doctrine of that
peerless statesman, James G.. Blaine.
We believe in the right of every cit
zen to cast the vote of his choice and
o have that vote honestly canvassed .
md counted; and we desire to call the
attention of all good citizens, prospect
We of party, to the Acknowledgement
~ fraud or violence of large major
ty of the legal voters of South Caro- t
ina and Mississippi. v
We regret that Democratic house, t
n it's desperate effort to linda vulner- l
lble point in the McKinley act, should
lee fit to attack the interests of agri- 9
culture by putting raw wool on the :
rec list, while leaving the manufac- "
urers of the east with sufficient pro- .
ection; and we call attention to the
Democratic promises prior to the last
election Of providing for the free coin +.
