 The Republicans of Coconino county, in convention assembled, present the following platform for the considera, ton of their fellow citizens:
 We declare our allegiance to the National Republican Party, as set forth in the platform adopted at Minneap- oils, and cordially endorse the present national administration as one of the wisest, most discreet and creditablo in the history of the nation.

We approve the present tariff laws as being productive of the most benef- cent and wide spread condition oi prosperity among all classes that this or any other nation of the earth has ever enjoyed, and condemn the policy of our present delegate to congress in advocating practically the abolition oi a tariff that sustains and stimulates the extensive sheep and wool interests of this county and territory. We endorse the nominees of the ter. ritorial republican convention and pledge to them our heartiest support.
 We condemn the legislative enact. ment of tho Democratic majority in the session of 1890, which proposed to array convict labor against the honor. able toll of Arizona freemen, and com. mend the action of "a Republican Cover. nor in yetoing said law.
 Resolved, That we favor the estab. lishment of military post at some convenient point in Coconino county.
