Report of committee adopted.
The committee on resolutions re-
ported the following:
We, the Republican of Stevens county,
in convention assembled, do resolve:
FIRsT-That we favor the modifca-
ton of the tariff to that extent COM
patible with the financial needs of the
nation, keeping at the same time in view
the fact that radical changes in any
NJ, off
the industrial interests of the country,
would prove disastrous to alike skilled
and unskilled labor and invested capital.
SECoND-Thatwe appreciate and great
ly admire the action of that prince OF
Republicans, ripe statesmen and emi-
nent scholar, the Honorable James G.
Blaine, for his timely efforts in advocat-
ing the principle of trade reciprocity
between the nations of the Western
Hemisphere.
TmRD-That we cordially endorse the
action of the recent state convention in
it's choice of the Honorable William r.
Merriam for governor of this state, and
in the nomination of the very worthy
and distinguished gentlemen compos-
ing the balance of the state ticket.
FoURTH-The we heartily approve
and commend the consistent and con-
servative course of our efficient congress-
man. the Honorable Solomon G.. Com
stock, and hereby publicly proclaim our
desire that he again be chosen as the
standard bearer in this congressional
district.
FIFTH-That we invite regid exami-
nation of the official records of Republi-
can officers of Stevens county, and that
we favor the retention of no officer who
has proven derelict or dishonest in the
discharge of public duty.
SIxTH-That we favor the distribution
of the various county offices between the
different classes irrespective OF the oc-
cupation of the candidate, but that we
stoutly maintain that occupation alone
gives no right to monopoliZe the nomi-
nations, thus giving to the unrepresented
class the privilege to vote for a nominee
without the right to participate in his
nomination.
SEyENTH-That we favor the choice
of men to the state Legislature who have
not been guilty of official corruption and
faithlessness to delegated trust.
EIaHTH-That we invite all people
who believe in the great principles OF
the Republican party, irrespective OF
occupation or past party affiliation, to
ioin us in the support of the Republican
congressional state legislative and coun.
ty ticket. Respectfully submitted,
GEO. E. DARLING,
