for the large number dependent on the
continued operations of the many in
dustries for livelihood.
We believe in legislation that will
insure to all workingmen a fair and
Just remuneration for an honest days
labor, and fair and just return to
capital on its investments. To this
end, we believe it should be impressed
upon the people of the country the me-
cessity of living within their means;
and the desirability of owning their
own homes, SO that we may have a
better, happier, and more contented
citizonship.
We view with alarm the tendency of
the people to vote for bond issues,
which later become an added burden
to the people by way Of taxation. And
while we believe that money spent for
the education of the children Of the
country is the best investment the peo-
pie can make, yet, we believe, it to be
the solemn duty of the people to see
that this money is wisely and conserv-
stively spent; and the same applies to
the administration of county, city, and
town affairs. We therefore call upon
every citizen and especially each mem
bcr Of the Republican party that it is
his duty to his government to 60 to
the polls on election day and make
known his choice of candidates by his
ballot.
Whereas, Certain publications have
been made in the public pleas in Gar
field county refleeting upon the hon
esty, integrity and efficiency Of the
board Of county commissioners of Gar
field county in which publications sug-
gestions and demands have been made
for the calling of grand jury to in
vestigate the affairs and acts of the
board Of county commissioners Of the
said county, and
Whereas, We, the delegates repre-
senting the Republican party Of Gar
field county at the Republican as
sembly held at Rifle this fifth day of
August nineteen hundred and twenty
two, believe that it is for the best in
terests of the taxpayers of Garfield
county that an investigation may be
had by a grand jury as to the e1pend-
iture of the funds of the county; there
fore, be it
Resolved, That it is the sense of
this assembly that an investigation
may be had by a grand jury of and
concerning the affairs and business
conduct Of the board of county com
missioners of said county as well as
the affairs and conduct of each and
all county officials.
We also insist upon an investigation
Of the two bank robberies in this
county as well as an investigation snto
all other matters pertaining to law
breaking in this county. Be it there
fore
Resolved, That we again pledge our
political faith in the principles of the
Republican party; that we declare to
the voters of this county that the Re-
publican party stands squarely for the
enforcement of all laws upon the stat
ute books Of this state. That we be-
lieve the national policy adopted by
President Harding should receive the
loyal support of every good citizen;
thst his national policy of firmness
and justice to other nations bespeaks
the dignity of the United States in
it present position in international af-
fairs; that the Republican party will
stand back Of each and every candi-
date placed upon the ticket at the
coming election, and that every legiti-
mate means should, be used to further
their election.
