#county's history. The conven.
ton adopted with applause the
following
RESOLUTION.
The republicans Of Beltrami county
ia convention assembled, reaffirm
their faith in principles OF that party
as enunciated by the national and
state conventions and declare our be-.
lief, that III protective tariff and its
auxiliary of reciprocity, and in its
adherance TO the gold standard of
monetary value, the party has won its
greatest victories and given the coun-
try its supremest prosperity We be-
lieVe that the victory Of Dewey at
Manila was rightfully followed by
possession OF the PHILIPPINES and that
the republican party and its admins
tration will in due time give to those
islands and to Cuba and Porto Rico
suitable forms of home government.
We believe that the Asiatic question
is momentious onesto the trade and
commerce of the United States, and
that the government at Washington
is carefully and judiciously looking
after American interests in the
Orient.
We believe that in VIM. Mckinley
and Theodore Roosevelt the party
has leaders worthy Of its record and
American craftsmanship; that in Van
SAINT the party has generous and
able leader In the state, and that
for the sixth congressional district the
Hon. Page Morris has done the party
great credit, and for his services in
securing the passage OF the Free
Homes Bill alone he has entitled him
self to the unanimous support of the
electors Of Beltrami county.
we believe that the republican adj
sministration Of affairs Of the county
has been wise, iudicious and economic
cal, and we pledge to the nominees OF
this convention our hearty support.
