and equal rights, before the law, for all !
classes of citizens will produce the largest |
measure OF prosperity and happiness Tor

object and intent OF good government.

publican presidents, Washington, Lin

vote rs unit for the renomination Of
Benjamin Harrison for president Of the
Unned States.
Resolved, That While favoring the full
RECOMMENDATION of silver and the bl-
metallic standard Of money, We recognize
that this can only be secured through
legislation effected bv the Republican
party, And we confidently expect this
from the administration of President
Harrison, whose secretary of the treasury
has declared that "the gold standard Is
too limited upon which to base the
monetary transactions of the country and
the world" And, We further declare
that, through our devotion in the cause
of silver, we are not to be drawn into
aiding the Democratic party, which has
proven utterly incapable of dealing with
this and other great public questions at.
iectng the interests and welfare OF the
people.
Resolved, That we rejoice with the
whole people Of New Mexico in the bene-
ficent change in the federal land depart
ment, the executive and the courts in
this territory, unde. the present Repub-
lcan administration, succeeding four
years of injustice, dishonesty and misrule
under Grover Cleveland.
Resolved, That the Republicans of
Grant county, true to their convictions,
as shown by the majority given for a
state constitution, hy the voters OF the
