acknowledgements for 1904.
The following resolutions were re-
ported by the committee and passed
by the convention without a dlssenting
vote:
Resolved by the republicans Of
Iowa in convention assembled:
That we congratulate the people
upon the prosperity that pervades ev-
cry part OF the country, stimulating
every industry % the highest degree
of activity, creating an unprecedented
demand for labor and rapidly advanc-
.ng the United States to a more COM
handing position in the commerce Of
the world. The condition OF the coun-
try today and its progress during the
last I'VE years is a complete answer
to the theories and predictions of
those who opposed republican policies
at that time, and allords conclusive ar
gument in favor CT q continuance of
the policies and the administration I'M
der which such manifest benefits have
been enjoyed.
I'VE depiore the untimely death of
our great and beloved leader, William
Mckinley. and express our horror at
the crime of his assassination. We
the less to the country, coming
in the fullness of his powers and use
fitness, and pledge our fealty anew to
the public policies with which the adj
minis alton was identified. IA
I'VE declare cur confidence in the
leadership Of President Roosevelt and
our loyalty to his administration. and
we express our qualification that two
honorcd Representatives Of Iowa re-
publicaniEm have seats at his coun.
ell bOlrd. We endorse his recommen-
datfon rs to the reciprocity with Cuba

and believe that this policy is neces'
sary to to preserve and complete the
work we have done In the islands. and
that 1t will be mutually beneficial to
the people of Qua and the United
States. We approve the determine
ton Of President Roosevelt to enforce
the laws Of the lanu, wherever violat-
ed, without prejudice or favor. APP
proving his purpose, and assured tnat
he mas the confidence OF the people,
We look forward to his election as
president in 1874. as to foreshadow.
ed event demanded by the popular Will
and one that will maintain and pro.
mote the national prosperity and con-
serve every national industry.
I'VE express our approval OF the
work Of the Fifty-Seventh congress in
its first session, and our pride IN the
important par. of this work borne
by the Iowa delegation. The legis.
lation for the reduction OF taxation,
for the establishment of civil govern
ment in the Philippines. for the con.
struction of an isthman canal, for the
protection of our dairy products, with
other measures of pract cal usefulness,
distinguish the session.
I'VE rejoice that the firm but en-.
lishtened policy pursued in the Phil.
ippines has secured peace in the Is.
lands. and that the work Of education,
development and upouila.
ing is begun. We urge that conten-
ton over our policy in tAe Philippines
