y which is threatening the peace
J and furnishing the good name
i of the United States. We con-
n denim the action of the Demo-
d cratic House Of Representative:
in refusing during all the long
session Of Congress which ha:
!, just closed to consider any meas
o ure tending to relieve our ceun-
: try from the blighting curse al
. polygamy and polygamous rule
in Utah and the surrounding
Territories.

We are opposed 10 the future
: importation of Chinese to this
, country, or of any other foreign
5 laborers, under the contract sys-
TEN, and we favor any plan for
} the relief Of free labor from COM
petition with convict labor,
, which does not impose upon
free labor the expense Of sup
porting convict labor in idlenes5
or useless labor. And we favor
the adoption Of laws providing
for the protection Of workers in
our mines aud other hazardous
cailings, and such other meas
ures as will approve the mater
! ial ard social welfare of our III
dnstriai population. We are
earnestly opposed TO the doctrine
OF the so-calIed anarchists, and
,5e oelieve in the most perfect
! protection TO each and every in
dlvidual in the enjoyment of the
fruits of all his personal efforts
to earn an honest livelihood.
XI.
The paramnunt interest Of
civilization requires that the
money used rs a circulating me-
dunn in any couatry shall at all
times bear a constant ratio to
the increasing population Of 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 enslavement of the
masses for the benefit Of bond
holders and grasping creditors
We denOunce the bondho!ders.
conspiracy to demonetize silver
AMI contract the money Of the
world to a single gold standard
asa crime against civilization.
1t 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, and
thereby make the rich richer
and the poor poorer, and impoV-
crish the masses for favOrite
few. We are therefore in favor
of the free and unlimited coin
age of both gold and silver on
the basis row provided by law.
XII.
We condemn the Democratic
HsUse of Representatives for re-
fusing tO make the necessary ;
appropriations for the construc-
ton Of Il suitable navy for the
defense Of our commerce and
the protection of our citizens at
home and abroad, aud we par
tieular!y condemn it for refusing
to make any appropriation for
fOrtitications to protect our eX-
tensive sea coast while there
was Il 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
Nation's abundance generous
pensions to the disabled veterans
)f our wars, whether for the {
defense or for the
preservation of the Union, We
protest against the removal from |
official places of worthy and dis S
,bled Union soldiers to make /.
way for partisan civilians and S
*. .Confederates. C
XIV. I
In common with ali loyal peO-
Die of the land we mourn the S
Oss to our country of the heroic a
lead, and especially that great '
republican, as well as great sol a
lier and statesman, Ulysses S. Il
irant. His life will forever be
N inspiration to high and hon a
