We are opposed to the futur
: importation Of Chinese to thi
, country, or Of any other foreigl
) laborers, under the contract sys-
tenn, and we fave. any plan 70
, the relief OF free labor from com
petition with convict labor
which does not impose upor
free labor the expense of sup
porting convict labor in idlenes:
Tor useless labor. And we favor
the adoption Of laws providing
for the protection Of workers in
our mines aud other hazardous
caiiings, and such other meas
ures as will approve the mater
ial and social welfare of our ill.,
dnstriai population. We are
earnestly opposed to the doctrine
of the so-caIieG anarchists, and
we Gelieve in the most perfect
protection to each and every in
dividual in the enjoyment OF the
fruits of ali his personal efforts
to earn ali honest livelihood.
XI.
The paramount interest of
civilization requires that the
money used as a circulating me-
dium in any country shall at all
times bear a constant ratio to
the increasing populationef that
country. Contraction Of the
currency Involves all financial
evils to which a nation can be
subjected, among of which are
robbery of the debtor, stagnation
of business, reduction of wages,
and the ensiavement Of the
masses for the benefit Of bond
holders and grasping creditors
We denoEnce the bondholders.
conspiracy to demonetiZe silver
and contract the money of the
world to a single gold standard
as 4 crime against civilization.
It would double the obligation
of bonds and all other contracts
for the payment of money,
which now aggregate in the
civilized world the enormous
sum Of more than one hundred
thousand million dollars, ana
thereby make the rich richer
and the poor poorer, and impov-
erish the masses for Il favorite
few. We are therefore in favor
of the free and unlimited coin
age of both gold and silver on
the basis now provided By law.
MI.
We condemn tie Democratic
Heuse Of Representatives for re-
fusing to make the necessary
appropriations for :lle censtruc-
ton Of a suitable navy for the
defense OF our commerce and
the protection Of our citizens at |
home and abroad, and we par
ticularly condemn it for refusing
to make any appropriation for
fortitications to protect our eX-
tensive sea coast while there
was ii vast surplus in the Treas |
ury, and thousands of laborers
out of employment.
XIII.
We again declare our constant |
sympathy with the just and con-
sistent Republican policy and
practice of granting out of the
Nations abundance generous
pensions to the disabled veterans
Of our wars, whether for the
defense or for the
preservation ofthe Union. We
protest against the removal from
official places of worthy and dis
abled Union soldiers to make
way for partisan civilians and
eX.Confederates.
XIV.
In common with all loyal peo-
Pile of the land we muurn the !
loss to our country of the heroic !
dead, and especially that great !
Republican, as well as great sol |
der and statesman, Ulysses S. |
Grant. His life will forever be i,
an inspiration to high and hoa- |
Drabie manhood, patriotic de- !
votion to our country and loyalty I
to the principles of Republican, t
