Resolutions.
The republicans of Mahaska county
in convention assembled do hereby re-
solve:
"1. We congratulate the country
upon the continued prosperity which
pervades all classes of our people un-
der the wise and patriotic administra-
ton of Theodore Roosevelt. He has
been alert and active to prevent
wrongs and avert evils wherever
found, whether it be to interfere for
the protection of wrongs and oppres-
sion of laboring men or against COM
bines and rebates of the railroad cor
porations. We are proud of the fact
that our representatives in congress,
Major Lacey, Col. Hepburn and others
from Iowa, were present to assist in
the preparation and passage Of the
Rate Bill. While in the senate, where
the struggle has been more arduous
and doubtful, the President has, at all
times, had the constant advice and
assistance of the able and efficient
senators from Iowa, Allison and Dol
liver.
"2. The almost universal prosper
ity which continues to exist under the
Dingley bill has strengthened our be-
lief in a protective tariff. The sud-
den transition from hard times under
the Wilson biIl-from distress and
want, to prosperity which followed the
enactment of the Dingley bill has Great
ed an object lesson which the people
of the present generation will be slow
to forget. The rapid increase of man
ufacturing, OF our mining and indus
trial interests, and the constantly in
creasing prices which the farmer has
received not only for his farms but
for all products of the soil, all tend to
create a distrust against the states
men who would attempt to modify
the tariff or change the schedules.
The time has been too recent for US
to forget that any such attempt
would be fraught with widespread
danger-that it would create distrust,
unsettled prices, and tend to create
panics and a general stagnation Of
business. Let well enough alone.
"3. We are proud of our townsman,
the Honorable John F. Lacey. and we
realize that his experience in con-
gress has qualified him to serve us
much better than a man of less ex-
perience. We favor his renomina-
ton to congress and we instruct our
delegates to the congressional con-
vention to use all honorable means to
secure his denomination.
"a. We hereby instruct our deie-
gates to the state convention to sup
port the Honorable George D. Per
kins for governor and request them
to use all honorable means to secure
his nomination.
"5. That the delegates selected to
attend the state convention be and
are hereby instructed to vote as a
unit on all questions coming before
the convention. That they also be
authorized to cast the entire vote of
the county, and that no proxies shall
be allowed"
