The following L the resolutions:
The republicans of Crawford county
in convention assembled do hereby re-
solve as follows:
That we fully endorse and approve
the acts and policies OF the administra-
ton of President William Mckinley
and a republican congress-; an admin
istration which has brought this coun-
try out OF deep financial and industrial
distress and has made it the most pros
porous and powerful nation of the
earth.
That we believe that the republican
tenets, a sound finance, the protection
OF American industries and a vigorous
foreign policy are largely responsible
for the present era OF prosperity and
we call upon the people OF this county
to support those principles which have
brought them such welcome relief from
democratic times.
We are proud OF the fact that the
governor OF Iowa, elected from Craw-
ford county, had the wisdom and the
unselhshness to lay aside personal am
billions and appoint to the United
States senate the brilliant and eloquent
orator and the wise anu capable states
man, Hon. ]. p .Dolliver and we would
express our approval OF his choice and
the hope that Senator Dolliver and
Senator VIM. B. Allison may long con-
tinue to add lustre to the name OF Iowa
as members Of the senate.
Be is ~resolver, further, that we take
this, our first opportunity, to express
our thanks to the republicans of this
congressional district for the nomina-
ton and election of III eminent fellow
citizen Hon. ]. o. Conner, to- congress.
That we have watched his course with
interest and approval and rejoice that
he has already demonstrated his ability
to take high rank among the states
men OF the nation and to maintain the
splendid record which this district has
held in the house OF representatives for
SO many years.
AS republicans in the home county OF
Governor Shaw, we desire to express
our pride in his record as the chief
executive Of the great state OF Iowa,
and in the fact that under his leader
ship, assisted as he has been by his
republican associates on the executive
counsel and by a republican legisla-
ture, an embarrassing debt has been
fully paid and discharged, and more
than one million dollars balance left in
the state treasury at the close OF the
last fiscal year, and that of this amount
the railroad companies OF Iowa have
paid a larger proportion than in any
previous year in the history of the
state.
W. sincerely trust that he may be
called to the discharge OF higher duties
for his country and express the hope
that there is in store for him a more
brilliant political future.
Further be it resolved: That we
recognize in the Hon. Carl F. Kuehnl<
one OF III most capable, efficient ane
unselfsh republicans. a splendid citi
zen, an able lawyer, an eloquent orato,
and a man OF the greatest capacity ant
strongest intellect, and one in ever,
way qualified to ably represent thi
district in the state senate. Furthe
that we present him as a candidate 70
the republican nomination for stat
senator from this district and that tn
delegates from this county to the re
publican senatorial convention ar
hereby instructed to use all HONORABLE
means to secure his nomination an,
he is hereby empowered to select tn
delegates to the senatorial conventio
and the delegates SO selected by hir
are at this time elected as the dull
authorized delegats from this county.
