PARK RAPIDS, Minn.. June 16.—At the Hubbard county convention the follow ing resolutions were adopted: We, the representatives of the Demo cracy of Hubbard county, in convention assembled, do hereby declare our ui legiance to the fundamental principiej contained in the Declaration of Independ ence and most loyally pledge our fidelity to the republic as the fatoers made It. We view with alarm the corrupt on in high places and the criminal record mide during the past tour years by tne en throned corporations now ruling in this land. Sin Is among the diseases that are catching-. America has caught from K;:^ land the disease of land grabbing, the thirst lor subjugating inferior races, b.th tributary to empire building—the crowng sin of detid nations and the peril of strug gling nations that yeL exist. As criminals pass on to prison they pass through three .stages. First the crime, then falsehood as a means of concea m nt, and at last upon discovery they report to pretexts in which to find and furnish ex cuses for what they have djne. Today the head of thi.-; mighty people stands before the world unable to truth fully deny the chaig s mad- and unab c to defend what has been done upon the ground of right and justice. His frifnds and defendents plead that we are now a "world power" and urge the countiy to sanction his policy, to autn r iz^ Its continuance, its enlurgem.-nt with out inquiry or judgment as to the w s dom, justice or criminalsy incident to hJa policy, to accept in silence what has b en done. In the history of dispotism. there is -lot a record of a more degrading subservi ence than is found today in the Repub lican party, and which the people of America are asked to accept. Thus is brought home to every Ameri can the infamy of the doctrine that a people may bj governed without their consent W hold that of all modern history, the most disgraceful chapter is that which the American nation is now writing. At the end of this century, carrying on a war i tablishment of a system of slavery in Asia. The nature and extent of our business can be appreciated only by comparing Lincoln's proclamation of Jan. 1, 1863, with McKlnley's proclamation of Dec 18. "My terms," said he, "are Q r st submission and vassalage. I will then con sider further as to.your fortunes." It is the reproach of the age and an omen of evil to America that one citizen can be found to approve of tills out rageous doctrine. We hold that the fundamental rights or mankind—life, liberty and pursuit of happiness -are the supreme law, in the of truckling treaties, secret con' and bargains, which hired bayonets and not the opinions of freemen uphold. Commercialism is distinctly secondary and inferior to such rights, History plain ly .-hows that trade and Commerce I ail when the rights of men decline, for a Cxod of love and Justice lives. That government is not valid without the coqeenl of the governed. That gov ernments derive their just powers from the consent of the governed. must determinedly protest tablishment of, colonies un- Ocr Lhe American li llesa of the constitution of the United States. With Washington we hold that no na tion has a right to meddle in the internal concerns of another; that every ore has the right to form and adopt whatever goverment they like best to live under thems AHgneft with Jefferson wo want neither king or rule'- who cannot be flisi placed by the common ballot of common men. Aligned, with the great emancipator last ol the prophets, we believe that he who would be no slave, musl consent to nave no slave; that those who rteny freedom to others, <h-.^ re it not im- th-m --s, and under a just God cannot lung ned with the second i minclpator wo ••n-,|)h;|iieal,y d.ciate for freedom and the republic, and we extend our heartfelt sympathy to al •: siroua of self government,and de hue thai the living Bptrii ol Independence of free men is at eternal enmity with the spirit of the minions of the crown Al'.gned with Man-Afraid-o; Hs-Shadow we "c '-unalterably approved to ihe :■ - gle gold standard and in favor of tl ■ 'J'i •'-• of gold an.i si ver We b »al the Rag must not stand f r one th toe 'n°n«P»*» and another thing'n^another! but thai 11 must bring libeity and equal |3| foJ°.? very pc •''' ■"'•'l by its am- ■ 1 We are certain "that a war of subjuga tion Is criminal aggr. ss!o ."
