ON RESOI.U- Mr. Chairman: Your committee on resolutions respectfully submit the following report for your ap proval. We, the Republicans of Quay county, in convention assembled, re-affirm our faith in, and our al legiance to the principles of the Republican partv. which, by its half-century of existence has at all times been the safe guard of the interestsof all the people aid which has preserved the destiny of this republic; we indorse the record o our great rougn-nuer, rresiueni Theodore Roosevelt, who stands on every occasion for an unquali hed sauare deal tor all men no matter what their station in life the President whose wisdom and patriotism commend themselves to every thinking citizen; his policies at home and abroad in behalf of Americans and American interests have secured for him the admi ration and respect of the nation and it is with pride that we con tinue our confidence in his admin istration. We recognize him as President who has done more to curb the trusts and other great corporations than all the hosts democracy; in him we recognize a President who will safely guard the interests of our people and thi great nation as long as he is in o fice, and last but not least, we rec oernize him as the friend of th Territory of New Mexico. Therefore we endorse the enab ling act, bearing his signature which offers to the Territory New Mexico admission to th Union, and believe in the theory of one state for New Mexico an Arizona and no longer a depen dancy.

Andrews, who has put forth every effort to ad vance the interests of his constitu ency and to secure the best re sults possible tor the territory of New Mexico; who has labored dil- gently and earnestly at all times for the people and the territory, and we feel that justice demands, and that the welfaie of the Repub lican party of this territory de mands that he be rewarded by be ing returned to complete the good work he has so faithfully begun. He stands by the principles of the Republican party as advocated by Freemont the path-finder; Lin coln the emancipator; Grant the soldier; Garfield the statesman; McKinley the advance agent of prosperity, Roosevelt and whose qualities combine all these in such a way as to make him truly a rep resentative of the people; we rec ognize him as a man who really does things and who can do some thing in the 60th congress of the United States for tUe Territory of New Mexico. We unequivocally endorse the able, manly and patriotic admin istration of Gov. Herbert J.
