We, the Republicans of San Juan
County in committee and convention
assembled, do hereby reaffirm our faith
and allegiance to the principles of the
Republican party as enunciated by the
national platform of 1900 and former,
platforms.
We express our unbounded conf
dence in and admiration for President
Roosevelt and his able administration
and are unanimous for his renomina-
tion and election. We fully endorse
his entire administration both in peace
md in war and point to the able policy
Of expansion, his courageous stand for
irrigation of the arid west, the building
of the Panama Canal as the great and
prosperous moves of his administra-
tion
We endorse the territorial admins
tration of Governor NJ A. Otero, in
New Mexico, as wise, patriotic and con-
servative and for the best interests of
all the people.
We refer with pride to the judiciary
of New Mexico and point to the men,
bers of our territorial bench as an able,
impartial, fearless and honest set
of judges who are credit to this Ter
rtory.
The Republicans of San Juan COun-
ty especially refer with great pride to
the wise, able, honest and impartial ad-
ministration of the Hon. John r. Nc
Fie of the First judicial District, who
has done 60 much for the maintenance
of law and order and for the faithful
administration of justice in the first
district. We can but refer to him and
his administration Of the laws as an
able, honest, fearless and impartial
judge in whom the people of San Juan
County without regard to politics have
the most unbounded confidence.
The people of San Juan County are
unalterably in favor of the admission
to statehood of the Territory of New
Mexico separate and apart from any
other joinder or combination. We
want statehood for New Mexico alone
and we believe that we are justly en-
titled to it.
We refer with pride to the able and
active work of our delegate in Con-
gress B. S. Rodey, both for statehood
and for irrigation, and as standing for
all the best interests of our Territory
in Congress.
The Republicans of San Juan Coun-
ty feel it their duty to refer to the
able and efficient work of the Bureau
Of immigration in New Mexico and es-
pecially to the active and energetic
work of its secretary, the editor Of the
New Mexican, the Hon. Max Frost of
Santa Fe, who has done so much as
the secretary of the Bureau and as ed
itor OF the Santa Fe New Mexican for
the upbuilding of the counties and ad-
vertising the rich resources of the
Territory. LEONARD BOAT,
