I Nhe committee on resolutions report

convention:
l. The Republicans Of Ford County
in convention assembled, rejoice In the
fact that In this Year Of Our Lord, 1904,
4, Kansas Ia herself again. That the night.
mare Of Popullsm has passed away.
That normal conditions have returned.
That again the party Is confronted In the
state by Its ancient opponent alone, the
Democratic party, and II in a dlsorgan-
ized condition, that the only serious
question at Issue In Kansas In this cam
paign Is whether the enormous majority
given Ben Harrison In 1883 will be sur
passed by the majority certain to be
given Theodore Roosevelt, We realize
that this condition of affairs means the
y casting Of great responsibility on the Re-
publican party of the state, that upon II
is placed the duty Of maintaining in the
interest Of the people Of Kansas an hon.
est and efficient administration of public
affairs, and we as individual Republican,
pledge ourselves to support within the
party only clean, honest and competent
men rs candidates for Office, and that We
will at sll times insist In economy In the
expenditure Of public money and the
capable and honest discharge Of duty by
every public servant,
2. We heartily lndorse the admlnlstra-
ltion Of President Roosevelt, We con.
fyratulate the country upon the able
c6lnsellors who have been called to hia
side and whose advice has contributed nc
little part to the success Of bis admins
trAtlon. AS republicans we are proud Of
that coterie Of statesmen, John Hay,
Ellhu Root, Phllander @. Knox and VIM
II. Taft who have done 80 much to make
our nation prosperous and powerful al
home and respected abroad. We believe
IN Theodore Roosevelt. We believe In
hlI uualnching HONESTY, In bis lofty pa
trlotism, In bis earnest sympathy for the
rtoiling masses, In his genuine desire te
protect, foster and build up the Legitimate
business interests Of the country and ",
rejoice in the disposition manifested BY
him to check and destroy by Lawful
