RESOLUTIONS.
Whereas: We the Republicans of

true opponents of the long established
principles of the party.

regard the nomination of William Nc |
Kinley and Garrett A. Hobart, for presi |
dent and vice president of the United |
States, to be in accord with the record of |
the pnrty, and that their election will |
usher.in an era of prosperity that has |
never been exceeded in the history of |

NOTES.
The convention was all harmony.
There were no sore heads or pie biters
here.
The nominees are not after office for
evenue only.
Gooding and Wernicke made excellent
Deeches of acceptance.
Sheriff Mcmahon for the next two
ears-so the voters say.
The Hagerman delegation were more
IAN pleased with the outcome.
The ticket is composed of the best
len in the county, and will surely be
ected.
Everybody felt so well that the con-
,ntion wound up with speeches, and
and ball.
1t was the only convention in the
unity that was attended by the ladies;
lat shows which way the wind blows.
