These resolutions are as follows:
The republicans of Carbon county,
through their duly delegated repre-
sentativcs in convention assembled,
hereby publish and proclaim their un-
faltering allegiance to the immortal
principles of the political party that
has made this grand country great.
Since the last republican county
convention the nation has sustained
the irreparablc loss Of it's chief. the
matchless Mckinley. AS in life he
shed lustre upon his party by invalu-
able service rendered his country, SO
in death he adds another star to the
republican armament studded with
the names of Lincoln. Grant, Garfield
