luncOmpromising maintenance of the

! high and low, the righ and the poor
the weak and the strong, and to crush
out all manner of trusts. We also en-
dorse the republican administration OF
the state of Nebraska.
Resolved, That we favor the election
of United States senator by direct
vote of the people. That we favor the
primary plan for choosing public Off
| cialS under our electoral system as
being the most feasible method of Sc
curing the rights of the voters and the
will of the people. That we approve
the anti-pass law enacted by congress
and commend the same to the incom
| ing state legislature as worthy its
adoption as a state law. That the re
publicans of Stanton county approve
the action of the state committee In
| including in it's call the nomination OF
candidate for United States senator
and we instruct our delegates to the
state convention to oppose at every
stage all attempts to dispense with the
nomination of a candidate for United
States senator or to change the order
of the nomination in the call.

Stanton county in delegate convention

the candidacy of w. w. Young for the
congressional nomination in this, the
Third congressional district of Ne

and empowered to name the delegates

Resolved, We recognize in w. w.
Young a gentleman of the strictest
honor and absolute integrity. That he
is well qualified by reason of education
and experience to ably represent this
district in congress and in our judg-
ment if he should be selected the state
would have a most active and useful
member. That during the twenty-four
years that he has resided in Stanton
county he at all times has been con-
sistent and ardent supporter of repub'
lican policies and principles and is
now a consistent and active supporter
pies as eXemplified in the administra-
tion of our illustrious president, Theo-
dore Roosevelt. In our candid judg-
ment the nomination could not be be-
slowed upon an abler or more worthy
man and in his election the people will
find that they have obtained a con-
servative and faithful defender of
their rights. By these resolutions we
submit his candidacy to the thoughtful
consideration of all delegates to the
congressional convention and earnest
ly hope that his steadfast devotion to
good principles of the government, his
upright life, his sterling integrity and
splendid ability may be duly regarded
