gates IN Convention assembled, That we
most heartily endorse the sentiments
promulgated in the platform adopted
by the late Territorial Republican con-
vention that met at Rawlins on the 14th
instant;
That we accept the nomination of w.
w. Corlett as a candidate for Delegate
in Congress as the most ct that could
have been made; and we, his neighbors,
who have known him for many years,
most unreseryedly recommend him to
the people of this Territory as a man Of
marked ability. Of sterling integrity,
and great honesty;

retrenchment in the management Of
our county affairs, and that in future
we shall hold all county officers to a
strict accountability in the performance

action as may be necessary to locate and
open good wagon roads on the most
feasible and direct lines between Chey-

united support in all judicious meas
ures they may adopt to carry out such
an enterprise.
