1 Republican party of Arizona to exert slliss activity and energy in promoting the early admission of the Territory into the sisierhood of States.
 U. The history of the Mormon church m the United States means an eeciesi- sstioal control that has ever been sg. gressive. exactinR and tyrsnnieal and whose boast has ever been that the Mormon church and people do not and will not assimilats with the people of l onr country; whose dominating tenet IS polygamy; whose doctrine Is to sesre- | gate its people irorl ali others in their affairs: W ho vote as one man under the dlcsation of its priesthood and only Tor those who csn be used for its base purposes; that a people they gre uu- American ond disloyal, and that for less reasons than these the Chinese have been refused citizenship and are excluded from our coun,ry; that the Mormon element ip our midst is con- stantly increasing; that the evil of their lives is blot upon tue good name and fair fame of our Territory, and that if we allow this vice to con tinue we can hope 10 harvest from it only evil; and. therefore,
 We. the Republicans of Arizona, in conVeption assembled. do hereby de- msnd of Congress that before it ad- IIourns if shall pass the bill now pend ing before it. known as an Act for the "Purificatiou of Elections ia Arizona ,"
 '. We urge upon Congress the i'm mediate necessity of remedial legisla- ton toward relieving the settlers upon the public domain in this Territory from the detrimental effects of the operation of inc provisions of the Arid Land bill of October 2. 1888
 s That the travel and traffic of our psopie in the Territory demand the attention ard favorable sciiop of Con- gress iB facilitating legislative aid for the construction of north and south railroad, so that our growing agricul iursl and mining interests shall have those advantages of transportation commensurate with our ever increasing and active industries.
 2. The bulwark of American liberties IS our free school system. and the Re- publican party. restin ss it does upon the broad intelligence of the people. demands their careful and judicious supervisiOn. and requires liberal legis laiion for the promotion aud conduct of our Territorial school system.
 | To- Taxation for Territorial. county and municipal purpo es should not be predicated upon principle of furnish ing living for public officials who seek office, but should be restricted absolutely to just compensation for actual services rendered, and We sin cerely deprecate and shall resist the ! xirar. aaninn1v 1f tn increase the burdens of the tax payers beyond the aeIual necessity of pro- yidiug for a fair remuneration for honest and efficient public servants. and we beIieve it to be the duty of the Republican party to address itself forthwith 10 iiDibishiDg taxation by cutting of all needless offices and re- ducing public expenditures 10 the low est point consistent wiih an hc nest and efficient administration of ihe laws.
 II. The principles Of Republication require the party to foster and sncour
 age every industry which tends to give vitality and prosperity to the whole Territory by a wise. iudicious leg sia. ton, whereby the interests of labor qua capital shall be equally protected.
 i2. The defalcatIons which have arisen in this Territory in the accounts of the Democratic officials appointed to office under Democratic ruie should inspire he people Of rhe Territory
 with gravest caaiion in again entrust- ing tbe powers of the government te officials elecied or s! pointed by the Democratic party or ifs rulers. and we direct the attention of the tar payers and the people at large to the deficit of S5.1OO in the account of the Demo- cratic Commissioners of the Territorial
 prison; 10 the large unadiusted balance due to the Territory from the late Sec !. reiary BavaFd in the administration of
 his off e; and te the appalling def cheney in tue accounts of Fred w. Smith late Receiver in the United Slate Land Office. at Tucson, and 10 ihe serious injuries and enbarrass- menis resulting tberefrom to the set tler- upon our public lands.
 13. We as a party place our candi- , dates before the electors of the Terri tory of Arizona with the fulles; belief i is :he;F integrity and ia .ke:- capacity to perform tbe duties of the offices for which they have been respectively : nomIDsted. and We invoke 6 fair and impartial judgment from the peo le upon the principles enuneiated by the party. and not on'y pledge the party but ihe candidates ss well to persistent effort in successfully establishing the principles hereiI set forth.
