These draft resolutions of the Republican party in the state of Ohio endorse President Roosevelt’s administration. They describe his enforcement of Inter-State Commerce and Anti-Trust Laws, advancing the Panama Canal project, passing the Hepburn Act regulating railway rates and a bill on meat inspection, and his foreign policy. The resolutions urge Congress to pass a “stringent immigration law” to ensure that only the most industrious immigrants are allowed to enter the United States. They discuss the country’s industrial progress and condemn dishonest business practices. They close by reaffirming support of a protective tariff.
