Mr, MeKinley, of Ohio, chairman of the
committees om resolutions, than rose, amid ap.
plause, and began to read the report of the
committee. He read in a clear, distinct
voice as follows:
The Republicans of the United States, assem.
bled by their delegates in national convention,

honor the memory of their first great leader, the
immortal champion of liberty and the rights of
the people~Abraham Lincola-and to cover
also with wreaths of imperishable remembrance
and gratitude the heroic names of our later lead.

The government by congress of the territories
is based upon necessity only, to the end that
they may become states in the Union; therefore,
whenever the conditions of population, material
reso e iotelligence and morality are
such as to insure a stable local government
therein, the people of such territories should be
permitted as a right inherent in them, the right
to form for themselves constitutions and state
governments and be admitted into the Union
Pending the preparation for statehood, all offi
cers thereof should be selected from the bona
fide residents and citizens of the territory
wherein they are to serve. South Dakota should
of right be immediately admitted as a state in
the Union, under the constitution framed and
adopted by her people, and we heartily indorse
the action of the Republican senate in twice
passing bills for her admission. The refusal of
the Democratic house of representatives, for
partisan purposes, to fvorably consider these
bills, is a willful violation of the sacred American
principle of local seif government and merits the
condemnation of all just men. The pending bills
in the senate fof acts to enable the people of
Washington, North Dakota asd Montana terri
tories to form constitutions and establish state
governments should be passed without un
necessary delay. The Republican party pledges
flee!’ to do all in ita power to facilitate the
admission of the territories of New Mexico,
Wyoming, Idaho and Arizona to the enjoyment
of self government as states, such of them as are
now qualified, as soon as possible, and the others
