The Committee ON Resolutions re-
port as follows
Resolved. that we, the Republicans
of Gratiot county in convention as
sembled, hereby congratulate our
selves and the people generally Of
these great United States in the
change of spirit which resulted in
the overwhelming victory at the
polls last November, in favor of the
Republican party. The party which
has written into the history Of our
country its brightest pages, and has
never been found wanting in its
most trying ordeals.
Resolved, that we have the utmost
confidence in our standard bearer,
the Hon. Warren G.. Harding. We
admire his common sense and SIM
plicity Of character as evidenced by
his expressions since his nomination
and election on all great questions of
state; and we confidently look TO him
"a our chief executive to bring order
out Of chaos, and once more, with
the aid of Republican congress,
place our governmental affairs on a
sound and sane basis, so much needed
after eight years Of Democratic DOM
ination. And we are not unmindful
Of the work done by the noble wo-
men of our country, in helping to
bring about the glorious results of
last November.
Resolved, That we hereby heartily
endorse the administration of Cover
nor Groesbeck We believe that in
him we have a real governor, one
who has nothing but the interests of
the entire state at heart and is
bringing to the high office of gov
ernor the same devotion 70 duty, the
same high ideals of service and the
same unyielding determination to
carry his convictions to accomplish
ment which has always characterized
him as a state officer.
Resolved, That we particularly
commend his plan Of changes in
state government by which the num-
Der of state commissions and boards
will be diminished. all such boards
and commissions held TO strict ac-
countability for their acts, their eff
ficiency increased, and state ex-
penses reduced to the lowest posi-
bic amount consistent with efficient
government and the necessities of
our various state institutions.
Whereas, Michigan, realizing the
need of improved highways provided
for state highway department to
meet that need and conferred upon
that department the general SUPER
vision Of the principal highways of
the state; and
Whereas. wonderful progress has
been made in bettering the highways
of our commonwealth until today we
have one of the most efficient high
way departments in any state in the
Union; and
Whereas, this department has
enormously increased in Importance
until today it is charged with the ex-
penditure of more money than any
other office in the state, and
Whereas, the present commission
er, Frank F. Rogers, has by his
sterling honesty. sound judgment
and complete knowledge of the needs
Of every county, proven himself en-
inently qualified for the position he
now holds, therefore be il
Resolved, by the Republican Coun-
" Convention now here assembled,
that the delegates to the State Con
vention be and are hereby instructed
to use every honorable means to Sc
cure the nomination of Frank F.
Rogers to succeed himself as State
Highway Commissioner.
