ofthe agricultural and other interests
in the United States than any other
measures adopted by any congress.
yThe republican party, following its
general policy of favoring the inter
ests of the common people. the farmer
and the manufacturer alike, enacted
the various tariff measures including
the Mckinley bill, which have result.
Cd in the building up of the agricul
tural and commercial industries in
THIS country, so that now we are the
greatest producing and exporting ma
tion in the world.
,under the terms of these tariff
measures as now existing, the Colora
do farmer, by reason uf the tariff on
potatoes is enabled to ship the product
of his ranch to the eastern coast.
The growth and Importance of the
livestock and agricultural interests in
Colorado have been such as to demand
recognition in the platforms of politi
cal parties and in the selection of
candidates for political offices.
There are 5000 organized livestock
growers in Colorado and more than
1000 organized producers in various
other agricultural lines. These inter.
ests represent many millions of dollars
and at least l2, 900 voters in the state
and we believe that these interests
should be given proper recognition at
the hands of the republican party in
its conventions, representative, judi
cial and congressional.
For four years the state of Colorado
has been blessed with a republican ad.
ministration. Almost half of that
time was spent in securing liberty of
individual rights and action and put
ting down the turmoil and strife into
which the democratic party had plum
ged the state. The past two years
under the splendid administration of
Jesse F. Mcdonald and his efficient
associates in the state house, peace
and tranquility have been maintained
and the state has enjoyed an era of
prosperity never seen before.
1t Is worthy of note that former
factional differences in the party are
now almost OF quite obliterated and
the party more harmoniously united
than at an, time in its history. In
contrast with this condition, the de-
mocratic party in Colorado is rent
asunder with internal dissensions and
cursed witt system of bossism which
threatens the scaut chance which they
otherwise might have had for vic.
tory.
Under republican adm nistrstion of
county affairs the business of the peo-
pie has been transacted in bust
ness like and judicious manner and
the interests of the whole people care
fully protected, and we claim that
the remarkable growth, development
and progress which mas characterized
Garfield county have been largely
the result of the wise and honest ad-
ministration of the republican party.
We believe that delegates selected
by this convention to the state, con
gressional and judicial conventions
should be absolutely uninstructed and
unpledged, leaving every man to vote
for the best interests of the republican
party of Colorado as his Judgment
dictates.
