RESOLUTIONS.
First. We. the Republicans Of the city
of Wichita, in convention assembled, with
renewed faith in the principles and poll
cies Of our party. hereby most respectfully
and heartily commend and indorse the
type Of American craftsmanship and pa
triotism as exemplified in the national adj
ministration, centred in President Mckin-
ley. His achievements in diplomacy, and
the supremacy of the nation in recent mil
itary and naval victories command the ad-
miration and allegiance Of all American
citizens, without regard to party and in
spire the people with confidence and am
bition to meet and discharge the increased
obligations in the world of commerce and
the duties Of advanced civilization.
Second We furthermore express our
confidence and faith in the state admins
tration. and bespeak for Governor Stan
ley and his advisers of state the undivid-
ed support and loyal aid of the people Of
our commonwealth in the discharge Of the
varied duties incumbent upon him, as our
chief executive.
Third. We render unqualified indorse-
ment Of the administration of Mayor Fin
lay Ross, and in commencing him to the
further SURFACES of the people of our
city, we give assurances of faithful and
business-like administration should that
duty be again reposed in him for second
term, and fully believe it will result in
public economy, commercial advancement
and the municipal Improvement Of our
city.
Fourth We hereby declare ourselves
in favor of submitting to the voters Of the
city the proposition. or propositions, of the
city becoming the owner of its public util-
tiles, as rapidly as the same can he done
legally, at the expiration of the existing
contracts and franchises. We only with
hold our Endorsement of an election at
once, upon any or all of such propositions
because the best legal talent holds that to
do so would be an impairment Of existing
contracts and franchises, and would result
IN an Illegal and needless expense TO the
city; that as fast as the existing contracts
and franchises approach termination,
whether during the ensuing administration
or the succeeding ones, we recommend
that the people be permitted to vote upon
the question Of the city becoming the own
er of its various public utilities.
Respectfully committed.
