lW.ATKOIIM AND RESOLUTIONS,
We, tho Republicans ot tho Slate
of Texas in convention as«omhled
hereby rc-alTJrm our devotion to the
principios enunciated in the plat
lorm of tho National Kepnbliean
Convention ol 1872, and cordially
endorso the wise and ju l atlminis
trillion of Presideni Grant.
2. Wo aro earnestly in favor of
the re-establishment and emit inn
ante of tho system of Public Free
Schools, such as ia imperatively re-
quired by Article IX of our Stale
Constitution ; with such improve-
ments as cxporienco has shown lo
ho desirable, and we Mrmigly con-
demn the Practical abolition by tbe
13th Legislature,of Iho system that
was in oporation.
8. We aro iu favor of the enact-
ment of such laws by the Legisla
turo as will givo full and amp'o pro-
tection to every citizen of the Stati)|l'or Slate Treasuror
bear to denounce its unscrupulous
effort to make homesteads subject

samo timo we-eongratnlate ourselves
and the poople of this Btate that
its oppreeei^e ltandlord and Tenant-
Bill wa*'*<reetaa% vetoed-by the

12. We trust that from this
time forward the poople will tako
steps to' relieve themselves from the
risk of . vicious legislation by elect
mg Senators and Representatives
as well as all other State officers on
account of their qualifications and
chnraoten
13. The speedy development of
the various resources of our State
we regard, with favor, and to this
end do we pledgo ourselves to ex-
tond ever}' reasonable facility and
aid toward the establishment of an
equalized and judicious Railwav
system for the State. That tbe suo-
coss of Railway building in Texas,
materially depends upon carrying
out, in period good faith, our obli-
gations heretofore mado, whereby
capitalists have been nnd mtiy bo
induced to invest in our midst.

8. Resolved, That we enjoin up-
on every republican in tho State

out regard to their political princi-
ples or party affiliations in the past
to join our ranks with the assurance
of prompt recognition and full fel-
lowship.

the hospitolity the}' have tendered
us as Kepiiblicans, and leave with
them onr best wishes for their fu-
ture prosperity nnd happiness.
6. Resolved, That we tondor tho

The Battle Begun.
Already the Republican army is
officered and arrayed. Rejecting
all counsels of delay, it takos the
uggrossivo and boats confidence in
iu its ability to renew the victory
of 1869. It in time that in ever)
county and in evory voting precinct
tho Lomocratiu forces prepare for
tho onset of a determined foe. Tho
o Beers in command against us are
able men, experienced in political
tuctics, and the declaration of prin-
ciples mado, in Dallas is intended to
rally recruits from many quarters.
Tho Democracy of Texas can nol
atford to trust to rumored divisions
in tho ranks of its opponents, for
the indications are that thoro will
be no gap in their line. Wo must
closo our own ranks, permit no dis
sensions, and strain every uervo to
obtain a complete victory for our
time honored principles.
