Ipower to nominate ticket and arrange
for the campaign.
The committee on resolutions ther
reported the following resolutions
which were unanimously adopted:
We, the Republicans of Santa Fe
county, in convention assembled, heart
lily indorse the national administration
of public affairs under that great pa.
triot and statesman, William Mckinley
! We also heartily indorse the admins
tration of territorial affairs in all its
branches under the able, wise and eco.
Otero. And we refer with special pride
to the judiciary of the territory, which
by it's able, prompt and fearless admin
istration of justice has made New Mex
leo no longer home for criminals, but
I a place to be Stunned by them. We are
proud of our Republican county admin
istration as administered by the va
rious county officials during the last
two years; under which life and prop
erty have been protected and public
money has been carefully collected and
honestly and economically disposed Of
| We heartily ndorse the nomination of
Hon. Bernard S. Rodey, the Republican
nominee for congress, and pledge him
the support at the polls of all Republic
ans in Santa Fe county. We denounce
in unmeasured terms the author of the
anonymous circular letter which was
addressed to many voters and mailed in
the Santa Fe postoffice, on the 18th of
October, as being unworthy of any self
respecting citizen, and as emanating
from a depraved heart; without the
courage to give his name, to the prod
uct of his evil brain.
| We favor as nominees for county Of
fees a ticket composed of respectable,
honest and law-abiding taxpayers. to
be selected by the Republican voters of
Santa Fe county, through their repre-
sentative delegates in convention as
sembled, and not by a self-constituted
committee of five persons, who assume
| to act for the Republican party of this
county.
Resolved, that we deeply deplore the
us to withdraw from a meeting of Re-
publicans wherein the rights of the ma
jority We're not recognized, but were
attempted to be overridden, and abso-
lutely suppressed by few men who as
sumo to control.
Resolved, that we do not recognize
such conduct as being consistent with
Republican principles, and we pledge
ourselves now and hereafter to be ut
| terly opposed to any course in Repub-
| lcan meetings which does not allow
full and fair exchange of opinions and
debate, and in the rule Of the majority;
and be it further
Resolved, that we adopt as our en-
blem, to be placed at the head Of the
ticket nominated by us, the American
eagle, to be printed thereon, and that
the chairman and secretary certify the
same with G copy Of the ticket to the
probate clerk of Santa Fe county.

CONVENTION NOTES.
The best Republicans in this county
will not stand improper and unworthy
men for Office The 9Th of November
will tell the story.
Rule or ruin days are over in the Re-
publican party in Santa Fe county.
Right and justice, orderly and fail
methods must prevail. The people will
have it so.
Many citizens called at the New Mex
! lean office to-day and stated they would
vote and support ticket advocated by
this paper. They said the New Mexican
was always at work for the benefit OF
the town and county, and its work is
doing good.
The respectable Republicans in this
city are in accord with the thirty
delegates who withdrew from the con
vention this morning and organized E
new convention because they would no
stand illegal, unlawful and dishones
political methods. The New Mexican
will take good care that the state of af
fairs shall be fully known to the people
1t is a well-known fact that Genera
movement that was not strictly fair
honest and for the best interests of tn
Republican patry and the people. Ev
erybody knows this. Had he not beel
fully satisfied of the justice of thei
cause, he would not have consented t
act as chairman of the thirty-nine del
egates. He never has engaged in an.
unfair, unjust or dishonest politica
move, and never will.
The county central committee, it il
reported, arrogated to itself the powe
to decide what was what, and to throw
out regular and lawful delegations. l
is said that it held session to pas
upon claims Of delegations. No motto
was sent to delegations interested
however. If any testimony was adduce
lit was absolutely one-sided and unfair
and in many respects untrue. If tn
committee Investigated at all, and man
do not believe 1t did. Report also say
that upon the question of admittin
neither contested delegations the com
mittee stood to 8.
