mand for the redress of grievances by the
repeal of the existing laws which tolerate
the presence of soldiers at the polls and the
continuance of the test oath as a condition
for jury service and employment of super
visors and deputy marshals to control elec

Resolved, That we approve of the mea

education, and t pledge the 'Democratic
party to take - suck steps as from time

wise to so perfect the system as to furnish
every child in the Slate the means of a fair
