The Convention then took a re cess until 1 P, M . The afternoon setsion opened with the adoption of tbe report of the Commit tee on Keaolutloni, which was as lollows: Obeoon City, Ob., April 6 1898 To tbe honorable County Convention ; We your committee on resolutions beg leave to aubrait the following for your consideration. We hereby reaffirm our confidence and faith in the Republican Party of the Nation and hereby endorse the National Republican Platform adopted at St. Lou's in 1896 and pledge ourselves to its qualified support. We endorse tbe administration of President McKinley as wise and con servative and judicious, believing that the Republican Party was born largely for the purpose of securing for mankind broader liberty and individual freedom for all citizens, black or white, rich or poor. We believe it to be the duty of the ad- mimiatralion to interfere to establish the Freedom of tbe Cubans from the yoke of Spanish Despotism. We therefore favor the absolute. freedom and independence of Cuba as a Republic, and radically op pose any foreign power gaining any foot hold . whatever upon the American Continent. We favor the building of the Nicaragua Canal and the control and operation of it under the American Flag. We favor the abolishment by law of the- several Commissions in this state, particularly the Railroad Commission, as an expense to the tax payers which the condition of affairs in this state does not require. '"' We are opposed to tbe Governor of the 6tate or any other StaU olllwr draw log or receiving any salary or compenaa- tion higher than that which is allowed by the Conatitution ot the State, We hereby denounce as revolutionary the conduct ot the I'opulut members of the Legislature from this oountv. who. during the session ol the Legislature 1897 failed to qualify of office and redeem the pledges made .during the campaign tor their election as being a crime against the people and popular government. We further deuounce the Legislative hold-up for the reason that by the failure ot said Legislators to orgauiae and per. form their duly they have thereby in creased the taxes ot this state nearly one million of dollars. We hereby pledge our Legislativn ticket It elected, that the members there of will go to the Capitol of the ataie, qualify, take their oath of office and pio ceed to use their best efforts to pas the above legislation, and to give the people of this state remedial legislation, and to vote against all moneyed appropriations that are not absolutely neceosary to de tray the expeusea of the affairs ot this state upon the basis ot the strident economy. We favor the abolishment of the office of Stale Printer, and favor the letting of all county and state printing by contract to the lowest bidder. We hereby favor tbe election of United States Senators at the ballot box by and thiough the direct vote of the people. We hereoy Insist that a faw be pa-sed relieving the counties of this slate from all liability tor witness fees and court costs in all cases except where a conviu tion has been had. We hereby favor the opening ot all courts of this county not later than nine o'clock A. M. We are In favor and heartily endorse the passage of a law which would crt-ate hat is known as Precinct Assessors, believing that it would result in a witter assessment of the property of the farmer and ol the corporation alike. We favor a just, honest and uniform taxation of property and are oppoxed to ny favoriteism being shown to any in dividual or interest. We are opposed to the system now in existence in this County of employing fonr or five helpers or awisUnts around the different County offices as has been done in the past and charging the ex pense thereof to the tax payers of Clacka mas County. We favor a County Board of Equaliza tion to be composed of the Precinct As sessors ot the whole County, said Assess ors to be elected as heretofore suggested, believing that the people would thereby obain a more just and honest equalize tion ot their taxes. Believing in the principle that the people themselves should select their officers, we hereby favor the election of precinct "jRoiad Supervisors. We alao' favor that alt county work on t roads and bridges let by con tract be with a stipulation that the con tractor give preference to tbe residents of the county, to perform the labor. On the question of United States Sena tor. we are in favor of the election of any good Republican who is the regular Rep ublican nominee,' but such person who ever he is, must be openly and avowedly on the St.' Louis platform from the firnt line cf it to the last.
