TAXATION.
~ We are in favor of the nd valorem
system of taxation, as adopted by
the state convention, as the only just and
equitable system, and pledge ourselves to-
its support and enforcement.
The tide-water population, of the state
have paid without complaint the taxes
necessary for the support of the state
debt contracted for public Improvement,
from which they deriyeno local advantage,
and are entitled to demand a repeal Of any
law leyying tax upon any interest or
property not general in this common
wealth.
Resolved, That the Republican party of
Virginia, through its representatives in the
state and national government, recommend
the total abolition Of the tax on tobacco as
soon as it can be done without detriment
/ to the national finances. u
INTERNAL IMPROVEMENT.
3 The greatest good for the greatest
number, being one of the principles of
Republicans, we are in favor of such a
system of public improvement as shall
best secure that result. The necessities of
not only Virginia, but of the whole coun-
try demand increased facilities for cheap
transportation. We are, therefore in favor
Of the early completion of the James
River and Kanawha canal, and call
upon the Congress ofathe United States to
take this matter into consideration at the
next session, and make an appropriation for
the same. Believing it TO be national me-
cessity, it should be national highway.
We pledge the Republicans Of Virginia to
use everv endeavor to secure It's early COM
pletion. We also favor such a liberal
system of railroad improvement as shall
tend to develop all sections of our state,
and we call upon the voters Of this COM
monwealth to unite with us in securing
these desired results.
THE PUBLIC DEBT. .asl3-
a' The Republican party of Virginia, in
common with the national Republican par
ty, is opposed to all forms of Reputation, and
favor such financial policy as shall tend to
the payment Of the public debt of the state
without being oppressive upon her citizens.
Weregard the expenses of our state gov
eminent as disproportioned TO the available
resources of the people, and demand that
they shall be made more fully to confirm
thereto. We disapproye all extra COM

MATERIAL pEvELoPMENT.

We are in favor of the development
of the material resources OF our state,
which, under, the rule of the Conservative
party and its predecessors, have lain DOR
mant. The mines of coal, iron and other
minerals, the vast water-power, and the
many other material resources of the
state, which exist in rich profusion on every
hand, need but enterprise and capital to
develop them, and thus make Virginia one
Of the greatest manufacturing states in the
Union. TO this end, we are in favor Of
such liberal Legislation as shall tend to en-.
courge the investment of capital in mining
and manufacturing operations, and Of gem
eral laws Of Incorporation, together with
such liberal spirit on the part of our peo-
pie as shall invite men OF enterprise to
come and dwell among us.
