advantage and result in publc good to

We urgently request that the coming
 legislature make provision to enable the
 county to fund its floating debt.
 We denouDce m unqualified terms the
 unwlse, unpatriOtIc and reactionary polI-
 ICY Of the democratic party whereby the
 value of silver has became alarmingly
 appreciated and the principal industry
 Of Arizona and of tbe other terriiories
 has been psralzed and thousands of
 laborlug men and their wives and chil-
 dfen have been deprived of the means
 of subsistence,
 We believe that trade between the
 United States and the Republic of Mex
 leo would be better facilitated by the ! establishment of an international silver
 coinage.
 AGain We call upon the general gov
 eTrment, through our delegate m con
 eress, our legislature, our governor and b! every other proper means, to see that
 tEe laws prohibiting polygamy be strict 1 ly enforced. That ell Indians be per
 manently removed from the territory;
 ,HAt the Indian reservations, among the
 faires: and most fruitful portions of our
 domain, be opened to occupancy hy the
 actual settler, and that hil questions pending tp effect ;he lItles to land be | speedily and difuItely settled, tO the
 end thas We may b. secured in cur
 homes already mad and free to attract
 to ss all people v4O seek 70 create new
 ones.
 To these declarations we pledge the
 Q minees of this convention and the re- l publican party Of Pima county.
