Resolutions Adopted by the Re.
publican District Convention,

The following are the Resolu tons
adopted by the recent Republican
9th District convention, held at De-
catur Ala.
The Republicans Of the eighth
Congressional district of Alabama,
by their delegates in convention as
sembled, re-affirm their devotion to
the great principals Of national honor
and Justice that called their party
into existence, and which during the
years that have passed since its organ
ization, have remained as the firm
foundation of the greatest political
organization the world has ever
known.
The success of the system of en-
couraging and protecting American
industry and American labor, which
has touched with the magician's wand
what were waste places of North AL
ALBANIA and has so blessed and pros>
pered the nation, is especially graft
fying to US and we trust that, with
such changes and reciprocal ar
engagements as may best carry out the
interest and purposes of the protec
tive policy may long be continued.
We favor the enactment OF such
laws and regulations as may be me-
cessary to insure an increasing vol
ume Of currency fully adequate to the
growing demands Of our trade and
population.
We believe that the rights and
privileges of American citizenship as
accorded by the National constitu
tional and the laws of the land should
not be INSTRUCTED or interferred with.
That every qualified voter should be
accorded the right peacably to cast
his ballot and to have it honestly
counted as cast. We endorse the
wise, firm and patriotic adminis'ra'
ton Of Benjamin Harrison.
We favor the enactment of good
and just legislation in the interests OF
the farmers and labGring men Of the
country.
A benifcent creator has given the
people of this district healthful cli-
mate. a productive soil and the pos
SESSION of vast mineral riches; to this
is added that wonderful lever to the
industrial development and CONNER
cial activity of this famous valley
the Tennessee river. The speedy
improvement of this river to the end
that its navigation may be as unob
structed as engineering skill and a
liberal expenditure of public money
make it is demanded in the interests
of all our people aud this demand
must not be overlooked or slighted.l
We heartily deprecate sectlona
strife and bitterness and denounced
as the enemies of good order and that
material progress which is so much to
be desired all that stir up animosities
and troubles that long since should
have been buried beyond resurrec-
ton.

Now that Congress has passed the
bin admitting Wyoming into tie
sistcrhood Of states aud setting
another star in the crown Of ''Un-
Gle Sam, let us take a look at the
wealth and resources of the new
state. Wyoming has an area of
1880 square miles or 62,G49, 900
and is therefore about four times as
large rs the state of West Virginia,
with about one seventh OF our pop
ulation. 1t has 5000, 600 acres of
fine land easy 90 cultivate and adj
jacent TO timber and well watered
and 20.000.O0O acres more that are
suitable for pasturing or irrigation.
IL is essentially an agricultural and
mining country with 600 acres Of
land for every man, woman and
child living in its bounds; coal i'm
every county and enormously val
liable gold, silver, copper and iron
mines in the mountain ranges. 1t
is capable of producing wide
range Of agricultural products and
GUILD easily MAINTAIN population
a. large as that Of New York, the
most populons state in the Union.
Nearly one fourth Of the surface is
covered with valuable timber. 1t
has splendid climate, the dryness
of the atmosphere greatly modera-
ting the cold Of winter, which is un-
usually open and free from excessive
snow These arc the natural re-
sources upon which Wyoming's
claims to statehood are based.
They do not in themselves consti-
tutc any claim, but are considera-
lions Of the highest Importance i'm
forming estimates OF the future
growth OF the new state in popula-
ton and deyclopemont wealth.
Twenty years ago she only had a
population OF about 5000 which
had increased to 20, 189 in 1880. to
So, 600 in 1887 and the census this
year will undoubtedly show II pop
ulation Of from 10000 to 100, 900.
