The republican convention enthu-
siastically adopted resolutions warm
ly endorsing the administration of
President Taft, favoring a permanent
non-partisan tariff commission, urg-
ing the New Mexico national legisla-
ton to exert every effort to secure
an appropriation for the improvement
of the Rio Grande, the return to the
public domain of many impracticable
irrigation sites, and the establishing
of national parks on New Mexico for
est reserves. The resolutions in
structed the delegates to re-elect Hon.
Solomon Luna, national committee
man and heartily endorsed Hon. Sc
cundino Romero for appointment as
United States marshal. The strict en-
forcement of the Sabbath Observance,
liquor and anti-gambling laws was
urged and the legislature was request
ed to pass an effective corrupt prac-
tice act.
1t was so we'll understood that the
temper of the delegates was opposed
to giving any rewards to deserters
that no attempt was made on the
part of the progressive republicans to
secure representation on the delega-
ton to Chicago.
The efforts of G. w. Prichard to
force the progressive republicans to
ask the regulars for the insertion of
progressive planks in the resolutions,
including the initiative and the re-
call was severely frowned upon by
the rank and file of that faction; the
large majority of whom are anxious
to make peace and come back as reg
ular republicans The Bernalllo and
Sandoval factions are generally will
ing to admit they are progressives in
name only and that their fight is
only local one. They have an
nounced that they will join the reg
ulars in an effort to elect republi-
can president no matter what the con-
ventions decide to do. The delegates
to Chicago will go uninstructed. Taft
sentiment is somewhat in the lead
Cunningham, Seaberg, Chaves, Her
nandez and Page being straight Taft
men. The others favor Roosevelt.
It is the sentiment of the conven-
tion that the delegates should, after
the presidential situation becomes
clearly defined, agree upon the course
that viii be of the greatest benefit
to the party in New Mxico and to
the republican cause at large
