The Resolutions.
The resolutions were adopted at the
evening session without a dissenting
vote. They are as follows:
I'VE, the representatives Of the re-
publican party of the state of New
Mexico, in convention assembled.
make the following declaration Of
principles:
I'VE stand by the time-honored and
aft trta tttIa cf ha loo I
party as enuncIated in its various plat
forms, state and national, and the in
stitutions inaugurated and perpeuate1
by the founders of our government, in
which is Incorporated the reality OF
that supreme declaration of Abraham
Lincoln that this is a government of
the people. by the people and for the
people.
I'VE believe the constitution of the
United States, adopted by our fore
fathers, is wise and a salutary basis
for our government and its provisions
should not be departed from, stretched
or diminished in character. 1t safe /
guards wisely our whole people and
all of their interests.
'sThe republican party is one OF
progress and of far-seelng statesman
ship. 1t can and will safely and in |
telligently deal with all great econo-
mic and social questions which con-
front the people and the nation far IN
advance of any other party which may
attempt such objects.
'Monopolies and special privileges
are parasites which fasten on TO the
body polite and legitimate competi-
tive business and weaken their
strength and tend to produce unhealthy
conditions. They should be eradicated
and placed beyond the possibility OF
their re-occurrence.
People Congratulated.
1--WE congratulate the people upon
the enactment of the interstate com
merce law by the republican party.
That law has done much to improve
and encourage commerce between the
states, regulate the rates and opera
ton of common carriers coming uh-
der its jurisdiction, and has lessened
the burdens of the people and has also
relieved the courts of much expensive
and long -drawn-out litigation. It's au-
vantages to the people are imfheas-
urable and will increase and improve
as conditions move on in the future.
I'VE heartily approve the action Oh
the republican congress in ehactihs
the sherman anti-trust law which mas
done more to help improve the condi-
tion of corporations doing Interstate
business than all other
laws.
1--WE believe in a trade commission ]
law which so specifies and deiihes the
objects thereof and the obligations OF
those doing interstate trade ana 'he
wrongs prohibited in such PLAN terms +
that they may be understood by tne
ordinary business man, SO that ne VIII
not be constantly forced into ehpen
sive litigation to have the law ihler
preted and defined.
I'VE condemn the trade COMMISSION
law lately enacted by the democrats
congress as being vague, indeiihiec
and uncertain in its provisions ana
meaning. and one which to be unaer-
stood must be interpreted py '"o
courts. =
Tariff Law Condemned.
awe condemn the tariff law passed
by the present congress as pelns ue i
of nearly all OF the chiei III
austries in this state and many on
Ihase ;n other states Of the union. II
