 Pi4ATFuRM.
 The Republican party of Gila coun- ty reaflirms it's belief in, and adber eRce to tA6 principles of the Republi- can party, endorses the platform adopt ed by the Republican convention held al Tucson on September F, lseA and more particularly the free and unlim- tied coinage of silver at the ratio of 16 to 1 regardless of the action Of other cohntries.
 We denounce the present National Administration and hold it responsi- ble for the greatest tusiness depression ever kR0%h in thIs country
 We denounce the action of the pres ent administration in the matter of removing thr military from San Gar los and returning the renegade Chiri- cahuas to the reservation, as a coward ly concession to the Eastern Indian lovers and m onwarrantable disre, gard of our liver aId property,
 We favor an economical administra- ton of our county affairs, and the re. duction of taxation to the lowest pos sible limit under which our county government can be maintained.
 We favor tbe refundinp cf tue Ter ritorial, county and municipal indebt- edness into bonds bearing lower rate of interest than is now paid, and if in this matter the party now in power Wih tG bht 8s taiNhfNl to the interests oG thg peoPle as was its predecessor, we t}famise that we will not accuse 1t q d,sbanesty and extravagance, and that 'ys will Bot distort a good act dtre itj unI adversary for the pnrpose Hf c5,nbaish yillifcation.
 We point with pride to the time when oiir cohhty affairs were in the hands Of men of our political faith; when cur taxes Yere less than three per cent, our exchequer replete with funds and onr county warrants were paid 6n presentation at the treasury some times before the ink was dry on them"
