tions reported:
We, the representatives of the Re-
publican party of the County of Nor
ris, in convention assembled, at
Dover, on this seventh day of Oc-
tober, 1909, do resolve as follows:
First-We endorse the administra-
tion of President Roosevelt with our
heartiest commentator, and pledge
to him loyal support. His faithful
and successful efforts in continuing
the patriotic policy of his honored
and lamented predecessor his signal
ability in recognizing the respon-
sibilities of his high and important
office; his courage and skill in the
performance of his exacting duties
his timely and fearless utterances
upon great public questions; his un-
tiring exertions in maintaining the
right, and his unauestioned Amer
icauism, all appeal to us, and meet
our unqualified approval. We ratify
the promise of reciprocity made by
President Mckinley to the Cubans
for their effective relief and our SUBJ
stantial benefit, and believe that
President Roosevelt's earnest efforts
to redeem that promise should be
fully realized, and his policy in rela-
tion thereto quickly carried out. We
also heartily commend the action of
the President in personally seeking
to terminate the differences of the
parties involved in the great coal
strike, which, unless soon ended,
must bring sore distress and suffering
to the people of our nation. And we
pledge our whole hearted support to
administration of national affairs,
courage, wisdom and patriotism.

pie upon the satisfactory admins

upon the CAPABLE manner in which
the Republican officials of Morris
County have fulfilled their obliga-
tions to the public.

Charles N. Fowler, the first nominee
of our newly organized Congressional
district, the earnest and undivided
support of all citizens, without re-
gard to party affiliations, as the rep
resentative of the best interests of the
whole nation in general, and this
constituency in particular. His
national reputation as a statesman of
the highest order, his answering
fidelity to those whom he has served,
his eminent ability and worth, his
record as a public official and his
value in the legislative halls at
Washington bespeak for him a tri-
umphant victory at the polls in No
vember.
Fourth-We heartily endorse the
nominations made at this convention,
and pledge them our earnest and
united support, and promise our best
efforts to elect. by all fair means.

ticket.
