10. Taxation for TerTiiorisl. 'nurty
and municipal purpo e. should bot hP
predicated upon principle Of furnish
ing IL living for public officials who
seek Office. but should be restricted
absolutely to just compensation for
actual services rendered, and We sin
ce-ely deprecste and shall resi.t the
growing tendency OF our Territory IN
increase the burdens nf ths taxpayers
beyond tho actual necessity If pr"
yiding for q fair remuneration for
honest and efficient public servants.
and we believe il TO be the duty of the
Republican party TO address itself
forthwith to diminishing taxation by
cutting sf all needless Offices aud re
ducing public expenditures to the low
est point consistent with an honest and
efficient administration of the laws.
IL. The principles Of Republiesnism
require the party to foster and encour-
age every industry which tends TO give
vitality and prosperity 10 the whole
| ton, whereby the interests OF labor
ana capital shall be equally protected.
IL. The defalcatIons which have
arisen in this Territory 10 the accounts
Of the Democratic officials appointed
to Office under Democratic rule should
inspire he people Of the Territory
with grayest caution in again entrust-
ing the powers of the government te
officials elected or 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. 700 in the account Of the Demo
cratic Commissioners of the Territorial
prison; to the large unsdiusted balance
due to the Territory from the late Sec
retary Baysrd in the administration of
his Office; and te the appalling def
cienoy in the accounts of Fred W.
Smith. late Receiver in the United
States Land Office. at Tucson, and to
the serious injuries and embarrass-
ments resulting therefrOm to the set.
tiers upon our public lands.
ID. We as party place our candi-
dates before the electors of the Terri
tory Of Arizona with the fullest belief
in their integrity aud in their capacity
to perform the duties Of the offices for
which they have been respectively
nominated. and We invoke a fair and
impartial judgment from the peo lie
upon the principles epunciaied by the
party. and not only pledge the party
but the candidates rs well to persistent
effort in successfully establishing the
principles hsreiG set forth.
