with all sincerity support those
platform as adopted by Republicans
in convention.
The platform is az follows:
We. the Republicans of Wyoming.
In convention assembled, again renew
our allegiance to the policies and
principles of the grand old party and
point with pride to the leaders, dead
and living. whose lives and achieve
ments have been the bulwark of the
republic and the very essence of
American history.
It ia safe to a that after eight
years Of uninterrupted democratic con-
troll the republicans found the ma
ton in chaos and have returned 1t to
a plane of wisdom and economy. A
comprehensive budget system has
been adopted and our internal tax
laws have been so adjusted that the
people are relieved from nc end of
ANNOYANCE. The evenu laws are
being still further revised in the
present congress and greater RELIEF
is promised the people.
Integrity of Government
Any wrong-doing or corruption
must be sought out and destroyed.
The Senate investigation ordered by
Republican and Democratic Senator's
alike, disclosed acts upon which the
President has acted in a manner to
insure the impartial. energetic and
orderly prosecution in the courts of
any one guilty Of wrong doing and
the righting of any wrong done the
government. He said that no one
shall be shielded because he is a re-
publican, and no one prosecuted be-
cause he is a democrat.
His calm resolution, quiet dignity
and firm insistance on orderly justice
stand out in happy contrast to the
unfair, disorderly and demogogic at
tempt to destroy the confidence of the
people in their public servants. which
has impeded the public business, in
suited the intelligence of the people
and lowered the dignity and standing
Of the Senate.
The Tariff.
The protective system has once
more justified itself by restoring con

counterbalanced any loss Of foreign
