CATION ADVANCES

The resolutions adopted by the re
publican county convention at its
meeting September 10 are as follows;
The republican party from the hour
of its birth to the present time has
ever been the party of liberty, eman
cipation and performance. Its history
during the fifty years has been the
history of our country. During nearly
all that time it has controlled the nat
tional government and our present un-
exampled prosperity and unrivalled
position among the nations of the
earth are the best testimonials to the
wisdom of its policies and the upright
ness of its principles. The party to-
day, justly proud of its past history
and of the grand galaxy of statesmen
it has given to the nation, faces the
future with confidence born of its ex-
perience and under the leadership of
our patriotic and progressive president,
Theodore Roosevelt, the worthy sue.
cessor of Lincoln, Grant, Garfield and
Mckinley, we have given to the nation
by our platform of 1904 the assurance
that the exacting problems of the fu
ture will be solved as those in the past
have been. for the welfare of our peo-
pie and the honor of our country.
Our national platform is consistent
and in harmony with the time hon
ored principles of the party and we
most heartily approve and endorse it
as expressive of our position upon the
national issues of this campaign.
Our national ticket composed of
Theodore Roosevelt for president and
Charles W. Fairbanks for vice-p presi
dent, meets with our unbounded enthu-
siasm and most hearty endorsement.
For the first time in ten years Col
orado has been represented in the nat
ional house of representatives by a
solid delegation in sympathy with the
national administration and we most
cordially endorse the course in con
gress of ouI representatives, Hon.
franklin E. Brooks congressman at
largo and the Hon. Herschel M. Hogg,
congressman from the second congress
sional district,
We give our unqualified endorsement
to the administration of our governor.
James H. Peabody, and urge the dele
cation from this county to exert every
effort to secure his denomination as
well as that of Hon. Franklin E.
Brooks for congressman at large, and
we hereby pledge to these officials our
hearty support and unanimously en-
dorse their denomination as the candi-
dates Of the party for the offices which
they now hold and which they have
so ably filed and with such credit to
themselves and the party
We call attention further to the
fact that President Roosevelt is the
best friend OF the west which the
people have ever had in the White
house, in substantiation of which we
refer to his interest in the reclama-
tiou act and his lively concern in ir
rigation matters and the further fact
that he is the first and only president
in the history of the nation to author
ize his secretary of agriculture to per
sonally visit the west for the purpose
of ascertaining the particular needs
of the western farmer and stockman.
and especially does this apply to Col
orado.
We refer to the fact that our coun.
ty has enjoyed it's greatest prosperity
and most economical management
during the period of republican ad-
ministration and we urge this conven-
tion to nominate the best citizens of
the county as its candidates today,
believing that such action will guar
antee our success at the polls in No
vember. of our entire ticket
We call upon all lawabiding citi
zens to join with us in this campaign
in order that the victory at the polls
may be 30 pronounced that the coun-
try at large will know that for all
time to come law and order are su-
preme and life, liberty and property
are secure in the state of Colorado.
