Senator Grady was loudly applaudad
when he said, in closing:

tons; desire to see the one survive and
established upon so firm foundation that
they may ever remain with this people
And / believe that the continuance,

Report on Resolutions.
Following is an abstract of the report:
AT this time, when the authority of
Democracy is invoked to defend plumber
of the masses by a few rich men, through
partial laws on one hand on the other TO
justify many eXtravagant and reVolu-
tionary proposals which. if adopted, must
inevitably produce worse disasters than
the abuses they seek to cure we deem il
eminently fitting to declare that the whole
Democratic principle is embraced in the
injunction laid on the first man-that in
the sweat of their brows he and all his
posterity must eat their bread"
I'VE affirm il to be as much the SUI
preme duty of government to prevent
any man from taking by violence fraudu-
lent device or legislative favor one dollar
or it's equivalent produced by the labor
of another man, as il is to protect every
man in the enjoyment of all property
however extensive, produced by his own
labor.
Protection Denounced.
1--WE therefore denounce Republican
high protection. which enables a few to
plumber the whole body of their fellow
citizens by charging extortionate prices
for the necessaries of life and the essen
tials Of industry.
I'VE deplore, as the most sinister conse-
uuence of the corruption and graft which
degrade our political and industrial life
