a Therefore, be it Rjsolvcd by the Unconditional Union Men of Doniphan County mass meeting assembled IstrThat wo have abiding faith in the integrity and ability of the President of the United States that we approve his policy in the conduct of the present war, and will sustain him in all his efforts to prosecute the same to a speedy and final termination. ''J 2d.

4tli. Resolved, That we have no sympathy with Traitors or their sympathizers, and that those guilty of the highest crime known to the law, should not go unpunished. That such persons are not worthy of our confidence, and should not be trusted in our 5th.

Jen-nison was placed in arrest, and en tertaining a due regard for that proper ''Public Opinion" which takes alarm at the arbitrary exercise ol military power I avail myself of this method of disabusing the public mind on that subject.
