We. the Republicans OF Arizona, in
convention assembled. do hereby de-
mand Of Congress that before 1t nd.

"Purifcstion Of Elections in Arizona
Z. We urge upon Congress the i'm.

ton toward relieving the settlers upon
the public domain in this Territory
La Ia. al II L..
operation of the provisions Of the Arid
Land bill Of October 2. 1888
8 That the travel and traffic of our
people in the Territory demand the
attention and favorable action of Con-
gress IN facilitating Legislative aid for
the construction Of a north aud south
railroad, so that our growing agricul.
tursl and mining interests shall have
those advantages Of transportation
commensurate with our ever increasing
and active industries.
8. The bulwark of American liberties
Is our free schsol system. and the Re-
publican party. restin g ss il does upon
the broad intelligence of the people,
demands their careful and judicious
supervision. and requires liberal legis-
lation for the promotion and conduct
Of our Territorial school system.
10. Taxation for Territorial, county
and municipal purposes should not be
predicated upon a principle of furnish
ing q living for public officials who
seek Office, but should be restricted
absolutely 10 a Just compensation for
actual services rendered, and We sin
cerely deprecate and shall resist the
growing tendency of our Territory TO
increase the burdens of the taxpayers
beyond the actual necessity of pro-
viding for a fair remuneration for
honest and efficient public servants.
and we believe ii to be the duty of the
Republican party to address itself
forthwith to diminishing taxation by
cutting of sll needless Offices and re-
ducing public expenditures TO the low
est point consistent with an honest and
efficient administration OF the laws.
IL. The principles of Republicsnism
require the party to foster and encour-
age every industry which tends to give
vitality and prospenty to the whole
Territory by wise. judicious leglsla-
ton, whereby the interests of labor
ana capital shall be equally protected.
L. The defalcatIons which have
arisen in this Territory IN the accounts
of the Democratic officials appointed
to Office under Democratic rule should
inspire the people OF the Territory
with gravest caution in again entrust-
ing the powers Of the government te
oficisls elected OF appointed by the
Democratic party or Its rulers, and we
direct the attention of the tax payers
and the people at large TO the deficit
Of IS, 5,7O0 in the account of the Demo-
cratic Commissioners of the TerritrsIsl
prison; to the large unsdjnsted balance
due to the Territory from tb1 late Sec
retary Bsyard in the adm;nistration of
his Office; and te the appalling def
cheney in the accounts of Fred W. q.
Smith. late Receiver in the United
States Land Office, at Tucson, and to
the serious injuries and embarrass-
ments resulting therefrom TO the set
tler- upon our public lands
13. We as party place our candi-
dates before the electors Of the Terri
tory Of Arizona with the fulles, belief
iD their integrity and in their capacity
to perform the duties Of the Offices for
which they have been respectively
nominated. and We invoke fair and
impartial Judgment from the pso le
upon the principles enunciaied by the
party. and not only pledge the party
but the candidates rs well to persistent
effort in successfully establishing the
principles hereto set forth
