Republican Platform


Political platforms are little else than
platitudes put out by party leaders, who
meet, carouse, drink their grog, hatch
schemes for party or personal aggran-
dizement, and imagine themselves par
tieularly designated in the preamble to
the Constitution Of the United States as
"we, the people" We're "nothing but
woman" and not supposed to have any
political sagacity, yet we know that
platforms and declarations Of principles
and all that vOte-catching sort Of trash
are never heard OF nor thought of after
the official count is duly made and at
tested; hence We have given but little Of
our space to their publication. We
gave three planks from the Democratic
platform, and these we supplement
with the following from the Republican
platform:
Z. That we condemn in the most posi-
tive manner the reckless and corrupt
Democratic administration of our State
affairs, which has in the last eight years
heaped up "a State debt Of nearly $1,000, =
600, in direct violation Of the constitu-
uoni and which has created new offices,
and Increased official salaries 10 eat up
the substance Of the people; aud which
has robbed and mismanaged the State
school and university funds, loaning
them to partisan favorites on straw Sc
curities.
S. That the Office of State printer
ought To be abolished, and the contract
let to the lowest responsible bidder.
3. That the attempt by the leaders Of
the Democratic party of Oregon to de-
fraud the people out Of an electoral vote
was an outrage unparalleled in the po-
litieal history Of the State, and deserv-
ing the condemnation Of all fair-miuded
men.
10. That we heartily endorse the ef-
torts OF the members of Congress from
the Pacific Coast to so modify the exist
Ing treaty with China as 10 restrict IL 10
commercial purposes only.
