The committee on resolutions reported
rs follows and the report was unani-
mously adopted:
THE RESOLUTIONS.
The Republican party OF Sedgwick
county, Kan, by its duly selected delegates
in convention assembled. do renew our al
legiance to the principles OF Republican,
ism, and declare for equal guardianship
by legislation of all citizens, In their life,
liberty and protection of property.
We denounce all teachings that tend to
overthrow property rights OF our people.
We deEounce and condemn in the most
emphatic terms tue action of Governor
Lewelling and his satellites TO destroy a
constitutional branch Of the state govern
ment by attempting to drive the legally
elected house of representatives from their
hall at the point CT the bayonet, and hold
the so-called Populist party responsible
for the action of their leaders.
We fully endorse the Republicans of the
lower house Of our Legislature, and the
patriotic Democrats who co-operated with
them, aud compliment them for their sue
cessful maintenance OF the constitution
aud the laws of the state: and we cOu-
graduate orr fellow-citIzen Hon. George
l.. Douglass for his successful, patriotic,
earnest leadership Of the Republicans in
thar struggle.
We charge the Populist party with mall
feasance in office; we charge the Populist
party with corruption in Office; we charge
the Populist party with duplicity i'll office;
aud we proffer to the people proof of these
charges.
We reiterate the doctrine of bimetallism
aud are in favor of three kinds OF money:
gold, silver and paper money, backed by
the insignia of the federal government and
interchangeable at par. We believe that
this government can manage its monetary
system without the dictations or suggest
ions of Great Britain or any foreign power.
Being tue wealthiest nation on the lace OF
the globe, both in property rights and
Intellect, we should dictate, lead, and fol-
low
We deuounce the national administra-
ton for its attack upon the character OF
the old soldiers of this country, and for its
hostility to pensioners, rs shown by the
wholesale suspension OF pensioners from
the rolls before and without waiting for
any proof to Justify such action; thereby,
as to vast numbers of the old soldiers of
this country, actually reversing the prin-
ciple that every man Is presumed to be
innocent of wrong until the contrary Is
proven. Such action i'll the case of the
men whose valor saved our Country aud
our flag. is an outrage which should stir
tho resentment of every loyal-hearted citi-
zen without regard to party.
In support of these principles, we invite
all liberty loving. patriotic and lawabid
lug citizens of Sedgwick county to join us,
and extend aid in the election of the nomi-
nees of our party, upon this platform
