Resof5e6, That the Republicans
Of the Ninth Cong. District in
convention assembled do re-affirm
their faith in the principles of the
Republican party as expressed
from time to time in the platform
of its State and National Conven-
tons, believing as we do, that the
present prosperous and advanced
conditions Of the Nation, the peace
and happiness of its people at
home, its friendly relations and the
high esteem in which it is held
abroad, are chiefly traceable to the
firm adherence of, and the persist
ant advocacy by the Republican
party of such principles, until they
become crystalized in the Statute
as fundamental law Of the republic.
| ReS0l0ed, That a tariff for the
protection of American industries
| is just and right and is consistent
with the doctrines Of the Republi-
can party, and SO far as it tends to
protect labor and encourage in
dustries should be continued and
that reduction in the tariff should
be as rapid as consistent with due
protection of the laborers and the
fostering Of home industries.
ReS0i0ed, While we realize the
necessity Of accumulated capital
either under individual or corpor-
ate management in order to the
carrying out of larger business
enterprises which contribute to the
development of our material re-
sources and concede that capital
50 invested together with the bust
ness ability and capacity compe-
tent to manage such enterprises
successfully are entitled to fair and
even liberal returns, we affirm that
whenever such enterprise bent to-
aoa11 monopoly, it is the duty of
government to guard the American
laborer, farmer and artizan against
any oppression coming from that
source.
Res0L0cd, That we fully endorse
the administration of President
Arthur of the high trust, to which
he was SO suddenly and under
such sad and trying circumstances
called, and that by his firm and
courageous adherance to the es-
tablished principles of the Repub-
hcan party, the nation is assured
of a wise and pat otto administra-
ton Of the affairs Of the nation.
