midst of our desolated and deserted mining
camps. condemn the Democratic Admins
tration that through vicious n unwise
legislation. have wrought such general and
wide spread ruin throughout our fair and
favored land.
WE rejoice that one Of the cardinal doc
trines of the Republican party sis the great.
est good to the greatest number therefore.
we advocate and demand the immediate re.
storation of the free and unlimited coinage
of silver at the ratio of Is to 1. without dis
examination against either metal. and with
out waiting foi the cooperation of any 9TH
or nation or nations.
WE hail with satisfaction the overwhelm,
ing timetable sentiment tina been Gre
eloquent and ulanswerable logic of the
great Republican senators in the senate of
the United states during the past year.
WE condemn the actions of Grover Cleve-
land, a Democratic president of the United
States, in calling an extra session of Con-
gress for the express purpso of destroyingt the
great silver mining industry by Iepealingth
SHERMAN SILVER PURCHASE ACT, and we
hold the Democratic party lone respon-
sible for the present deplorahle condition of
the silver industry.
WE most heartily indorse the great prin-
ciple of the American protective tariff sys-
tenn as embodied in every platform OF the
National Republican party since 1856. In the
language of the martyred Lincoln labor is
capital" andis ehtitled to the fullest pro-
lection. rejection to home industries has
been the leading doctrine Of the Republican
party and of the country; under It's benign
influence We have experienced a degree OF
prosperity unparalleled in the history of any
Nation. 1t has been the glory and salvation
of the Nation. snail We go on gathering the
grand results of protection. or shall we con-
tinue the present depressing and destructive
experiment OF a "tarift for revenue and
repeat the disaster and distress of 1887 and
1857.
WE deplore the effect of the present Demo-
cratic and Populistic pop gum tariff bills
of the 53d congress upon the wool industry
OF New Mexico, an industry that under Re.
publican tariff laws had become our largest
and most remunerative. We look upon the
act of congress, with the approval and con-
sent of Antonio Joseph, placing wool upon
The free list, as a base betrayal of and a
crime against the people OF New Mexico, and
we demand its full restoration and protec-
tion as a product of our people.
WE protest against the ~extravagant and
non American conduct of the present Ma
tional Democratic Administration, by and
through which the dignity of the high office of
president has been lowered, and its author
ity most w%antonly exceeded; and we hereby
d~enounce the said administration in issuing
interest bearing bonds in times of profound
peace as unwise ,uniustifable and without a
parallel in the history OF the Nation.
WE denounce the act of the Populistmem-
bers of Congress in voting as a unit to de-
stroy the wool industry OF New Mexico. and
at the same time voting to place a tax of
forty-three millions OF dollars per annum
upon the breakfast table of the working
man in the interest OF the great Sugar trust,
a corporation that is charged with bribing
the Democratic party by furnishing its cam
paign committee with the magnificent sum
Of FIVE hundred thousand dollars in 1892.

party in Congress in delaying statehood for
New Mexico until after the election as base
p~artizanship. unworthy the dignity and
honor of any state or national political
party.
WE recognize that prosperity in the east
means prosperity for the whole country
and arenewal Of investment in New Mexico
mines, lands and other enterprises; there
fore we view with alarm the declaration of
President Cleveland that the Democratic
war upon Industrial industries is to be re-
newed regardless OF its depressing effect
upon commercial enterprise and productive
labor of every description.
WE condemn as infamous the policies of
the officials of Democracy, appointed over
New Mexico in an administrative capacity
without our consent and approval, who
came upon us like q devastating pestilenco
resulting in the destruction of life and pro-
perty.
The policy of w. II. Thornton, governor,
whose advocacy Of free wool and free lead,
DESTROYS our productive energies within
New Mexico and misrepresents us abroad
whose summary, unjust and stealthy re-
moval of republican officials to gain the
vain and vicious ends of Democracy, is espe.
cially condemned.
WI appeal to all good citizens, regardless
of former political affl ltions to unite with
the republican party in redeeming the coun-
try, restoring confidence, giving peace to in
dustry, contentment to the people and pros
perity to the great mass of our people and
the Nation.
