lu Philadelphia both aides were anxious to secure harmony and concerted action The committee will therefore meet in Philadelphia at some future day and make such rules for the erganizatiou of the Democratic parry in Philadelphia ae in their judgment may be deemed neces-ary They will determine what Gm regular organization shal be It is to be made up of each delegation and is to be admitted to seats in thiS convention each delegate to tast on -halt et' one vote through its chairman The report was adopted aed the roll of delegates On motion of Moneghan A 1 1Mh1 was made temporary chairman

That we the Democratb party of Pennsylvania in convention assembled renew our vow of fidelity to the fundamental principles proclaimed and practiced by Illustrious men who settled our free institutions and founded the Democratic party to protect and preserve them 2 that the just powers of the Federal Cnion the rights of the States and the liberties of the people are vital parts of one harmonious system sod to sore each part in its whole constitutional vigor is to save the life of the nation 3 That the Democratic party maintaining as it ever has maintaivel that the military are and ought to be in all things subordinate to the civil authorities it denim as it ever has denied the right of the Pad-end Administration to keep on foot at the general PX p-nne a standing army to invade the States tor political purposes without regard to constitutibnal re to control the people at the polls to detect and eneourage feaudulent counta ot votes and to inaugurate candidates rejected by the majority 4 That the right to free ballot is the right pro servative of all rights the only means of peaceludy redressing grievsnces and reforming abuse The premence at the polls of a regular military force and a host of hireling officials claiming the power to arreat and imprison citizens 'Atheist warrant or hearing destrirs all freedom in elec dons and ruptures the very foundarion of

ascendancy the political rings and corporations profited sod to any appropriations of the public moneys or public creak or to any objett but the public service The reforms and ecotiomies enforced by the Democratic party since its advent to power in Congress have saved to the people many millions of money and we believe a like re-suit would follow its restoration to power in the state of Pennsylvania -ii That the Democratic party being the national friend of the workingman and having throughout its history stood between him and opprowion renews Its expre-sion of sympathy with labor and isa promise el protection to its rights 9 That we look with alarm and apprehension upon the pretensions of great transportation compatties to be above the fundamental law of this commonwealth
