The committee on resolutions re.
ported the following:
We, the Republicans of Allen coun.
ty in convention assembled, believing
that the interests of the whole people
will be best subserved through the
medium of Republican principles,
policy and laws, and having an abid-
ing faith in the patriotism and integ-
rity of the party to which We belong
do resolve:
That, as in the past we have favor
ed protection to American industries
and American labor, so do we now fa-
yor it. And regarding farming as be-

products equal protection with other
Industries.
That we urgently demand q speedy
enactment of q law by Congress guar

right and power to suppress the sale
of Intoxicating liquors as q beverage.
That we heartily endorse the silver
bill passed by a Republican Congress,
as placing silver on par with gold as
monetary standard, as adding ut

ting medium and as paving the way
TO the free and unlimited coinage Of
silver.
That the Republican PARTY has fully
redeemed its pledges and again proven
itself worthy of tine confidence of the
old soldiers by framing and passing
the most liberal pension law ever vet
placed upon the statute books of the
nation, a law which makes il forever
impossible that any man who offered
his life for the defense of his country
should become an object of public on
private charity, or that his widow or
children should suffer want.
That we favor federal election law,
believing that the perpetuity Of Re
publican institutions depends upon
the purity of the ballot and that only
those can object to an honest election
who hope to profit by dishonest one.
That we cordially endorse the Ad-
ministration of President Harrison as
eminently wise, pure and patriotic.
That we cordially approve Of the
course of Hon. p. B. Plumb in the
Senate of the United States and tend
er him our hearty thanks for his un-
