Bismarck daily tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, Dakota [N.D.]) 1881-1916, 1906-07-13

leave to make the following report,
and move the. adoption Of the same:
sB5 We glory In the grand history of
the republican party-a an organiza-
ton which has been first in every eff
fort to develop and improve condi-
tons IN this progressive land of ours,
and whose every promise has been
most faithfully kept. Its unblem-
ished record of fifty years stands as
the proudest monument any party
could have, and we have implicit
faith that in the future it will meet
all emergencies with the same sue
cess as in the past. 35 4 53ss,
e It is with pleasure that we call
attention to our great leader, Theo-
dore Roosevelt, who has always
proven faithful to every trust, and
who has so strenuously labored for
the interests Of the common people
Of this land, as well as to give every
just protection to invested capital.
We are especially proud of the chief
executive Of the nation, because he
is a foster son of this great state,
and much of his strenuousness and
persistency comes from his imbibings
the pure ozone Of these great prai-
ries, with all its healthgiving quail
ties. Protection for the rights of
all the people has been his battle cry
and we are proud to be his humble
followers. &. ssa y, .@-@ 4 /, q
| The harmony which has existed
among the members Of the delegation
from this state to the national CAPT.
tai is to be most highly commended;
each has most zealously labored for
every interest of the state and nation,
and North Dakota has reason to be
proud of the record made by all, as
| matter of national legislation. IS
Senator Hansbrough has been
prominent in national irrigation from
its inception, and this work is doing
much to assist in the great develop
ment of the entire west. During the
session Just ended he secured the
passage of an important drainage
measure through the senate, and it
is on the house calendar for consider
alton at the next session. Drainage
| and irrigation should go hand in
hand in the development of this Won
defu1 state of ours. q f.
Senator McCumber4 was the prom
inent figure in the effort to obtain a
4 national pure food law, and as usual
he obtained what he advocated, in
spite of the many difficulties placed
| in the path of this measure to pro-
tect the health of every member of
our families. We are proud Of his
record, and the old soldiers are es-
pecially gratifed, that he has secured
1 justice for them in pensions for
disabilities contracted while II they
4 were engaged in the preservation Of
/ the nation, both in the terrible war
. Of the rebellion and the Spanish
1 American contest. gSm5a&2 s
+ Congressman Marshall has won
national fame by securing the pas
sage of the denaturized alcohol
measure, a % law which will give adj
i ditional and desirable markets for the
farmers products and give cheap
fuel and power, and also furnish a
! check to a great monopoly. This
measure is justly classed by the en-
tire country as one of the most -Valu-
1 able enacted into law in many
years n 7-s' :. ~ a., s7.,'s + e
i Il Congressman Gronna made a record
during his first term, contrary to the
4 rule, which as hardly been broken
4 heretofore, by extending the free de-
4 livery system in rural districts, thus
! bringing the farmers in closer touch
\ with the events of the world, and
making an agricultural life pleasant
/ er than it could otherwise be. w. -.
The republican party fully sympa-
thizes with the cause of organized
labor in the state and nation; its his
/ tory showing that it has helped the
cause of the 1aboring man, the nation
over, in shortening his hours of labor,
. aiding him to receive proper compen-
\ sation for his services and thus Civ
4 ing him better opportunities for the
education of his children and better
ing the condition Of his home and
family.
4 We repeat the pledge of the7repub-
lican party to enforce all laws now
upon the statute books.
i 1t is with great pleasure that we
refer to the record made by Hon.
4 e. sarles as governor and all the
members of the state administration !;
lit has been. one Showing the best
business sense in Gazing for the inter
ests of the state, giving just taxation,

manner the vast resources of the
i glorious state which we have all
j helped to build up. 6 We believe that
4 the voters of the republican party
and in fact the entire population OF
i North Dakota-will overwhelmingly
endorse the administratio OF Cover
nor SarIes and his associates and the
i work OF this convention at the polls
in November next. .; :ss d I.
Be it further resolved that this
II convention favor and recommend the
4 enactment by the next legislative as
sembly Of a direct primary election
Law providing for the nomination of
Il all county, legislative, district, state

erence for United States senator's.
