IA. We favor the continuance of the
Republican tariff on wool and Other
products of this territory, and as a re-
suit of such tariff we point to the fac
that our wool and sheep interests in thi!
territory alone are worth over $40, 000,
900 more than they were when William
Mckinley was elected president.
Is. Combinations of capital having
as their object the control of the pro.
duction Of commodities, or the markets
thereof, and the regulation of wages
are hurtful and injurious to the bes'
interests of the people, and should be
prevented by congress under a consti.
tutional amendment. New Mexico is af.
f1icted with that greatest of all monop.
olies, the oil trust. By unjust combina.
ton and discrimination this great trust
has virtually driven all competition
from our territory, and as a conse-
quence thereof our people are compelled
to pay. for the oil they consume more
than double the price paid for better OF
by the people of Colorado, Texas, Cali
fornia and other surrounding states and
territories. We therefore favor such
national legislation as shall establish
complete legal control over all trusts
and monopolies, and we emphatically
demand hat the next legislature of this
territory, after a full investigation OF
the subject, pass a law which will pre-
vent unjust discrimination against oul
people, and provide for the punishment
of those who seek to destroy honest
competition. We favor the repeal of the
so-called coal oil law of this territory.
Is. We condemn the provisions of the
so-called Stephens bill, now pending be-
fore the congress Of the United States,
which bill, in terms, inhibits the people
of this territory from acquiring rights
in the waters of the Rio Grande and its
tributaries, such as can be and are o
being acquired by the inhabitants of
Colorado and Texas; which prohibits
the use, i%mpounding and detention fol-
legitimate commercial purposes of
waste waters arising and flowing
through New Mexico; and which re-
moves from the jurisdiction of our ter
ritorial courts litigation over the local
rights involved in these momentous
questions. We further favor the imme-
diate construction of the Elephant
Butte DAM.
II. The reasons for keeping New
Mexico under a territorial form Of gov
eminent have long ceased to exist. 1t is
right to have this territory admit
ted as a state, and we insist that it is
the duty of congress to admit it. The
Philadelphia Republican national con
vention of last June, representing the
whole Republican party Of the United
States, declared as follows: 1--WE favor
home rule for, and the early admission
TO statehood of, the territories Of New
Mexico, Arizona and Oklahoma" We
call the attention of this pledge to the
president and the congress Of the Unit
ed States, and confidently expect its
observance and the early admission of
our territory as a state.
IS. We and the people of New Mexi-
co are unalterably opposed to the main
tenance and creation of all forest re-
serves in this territory, as being inju-
rious to our people and their best inter-
ests.
10. We are opposed to the leasing of
the public domain under any manner or
form whatever, believing it injurious
and detrimental to the interests of the
people, and to the advantage Of large
corporations and trusts; and WI re-
specially and earnestly represent to
congress that all bills now pending be-
fore that body, having as their purpose
the leasing or allotment of the public
lands OF the United States to individ-
uals, companies or corporations, be not
passed.
20. We recommend the governor OF
this territory to appoint eve of the
party, and a like number of the Repub-
lican party to act with him, to consti-
tute a committee of fifteen of our citi-
zens, of which he shall be chairman, tc
go to Washington during the coming
session of congress and urge by all hon
orable leans the passage of an en-
abling act for the admission of New
Mexico as a state in the union.
