We favor a tariff upon the imported pro-
ducts of low-pricod foreign labor so as to
protect the in ferests of American wagework-
ers, and for the development OF American
industries. We demand in behalf of our min
ing interests the maintenance OF the present
tariff on lead, torax, soda ana other mineral
productions, and on behalf of our wool-srow-
ing interests a restoration Of the wool tariff Of
1867, and we denounce the recent attempt Of
tempt of the democratic majority In the Ma
tiOnal House of Representatives to pass the
Morrison bill reducing the tariff % The pro-
duct of our mines and placing wsol on the free
list
".
We believe In American soil for American
American citizens, and are opposed TO non
resident aliens becoming land owners. The
publ domain should be reserved as home
steads for actual settlers, and the accumula-
ton Of large tracts or bodios OF land In the
hands of of corporations or individuals should
be discouraged, and in the case OF land grants
TO railroad corporations where the corpora-
tions have failed to comply with the condi-
tons of the grants The land should be for
feited TO the General Government, and held
for the benefit of actual settlers.

We favor the intelligent organization Of
labor for such worthy purposes as mutual
education and fer the protection OF their IN
terests in all things relating TO their welfare
and TO the industrial welfare OF The country,
aud we favor the enactment OF state ana Ma
tionaI laws providing for the settlement Of
controversies between employers and emploles
by methods of voluntary arbitration, or oy the
establishment of Courts ofConciliaiion, winch
wi n avoid the waste, loss aud il-ieeling result
ing from strikes aud lOckouts, and the usual
expense Of litigation.
We denouncs the action of the Democratic
House Of Representatives at its last session IN
striking from the bill 10 compensate the clti-
zeus Of this state for loss sustained In the
Indian War of 1850 all claims for supplies lur
nished for the suppression of Indian host IL
ties, and also for service rendered durlnB that-
memorable struggle in which the lives OF
large number OF our most respected citizehs
were sacrificed.
We dcnouncc the pretense of the Demo
cratic party Of having sympathy Tor local eel
government Ia Ireland, while the Democratic
House of Representatives, in committee OF
the Whoe, repeatedly refused to indorse that
principle In the months of April and June
iast that body of Democrats on three several
occasions rejected resolution lndorslng
free Parliament for Ireland, which Is In the
following words

tives earnestly sympathlze with Rght hon,

unhappy conntry upou the prospect si an

ment." Thereby diseouraging the growth Oh

We commend the eIOrts OF Senator Jones

appropriation OF S3U,OUO for public land sur
Xeys IN this state, anu we SOhue.mh me hS ,in

particularly condemn the action OF senator
Fair in abscntlng himself from Washington
durin. all the time When appropriations LOT
this State were under consideration by the
Senate.
We endorse the action Of Senator Jones and
Congressman oodbdrn in their Efforts 10
suppress polygamy IN Utah, and TO check tue
growth OF disloyality to the Government IN
That Territory, and we fully endorse tue prlh-
ci pies Of the bill introduced Tor that purpose
by Congressman Moodburn. we endorse the
action of the Republican oenOte IN passing IN
The carly DAYS of the last session of Congress
"A bill well calculated to suppress the growing
evil of polygamy, and cheek the growth OF
the hostile power OF the Mormon Inurch'
W hich is threatening the peace ana taIhlsh-
ing the good name OF the United states. We
condemn the action of the Democratic House
OF REPRESENTATIVES, in refusing during all the
long session of Congress which has Just ciosed
TO consider any measure tending 70 IeiieVe
our country from the blighting curse of polyg-
amy and poygamous rule in Utah ana the
surrounding Territories.

We are opposed TO the future importation
of Chinese TO this country, or OF any other
fnreign laborers, under the contract system,
and we favor any plan for the relief OF Tree
labor from competition with convict laoQr,
which doe not impose upon free LABOR tne
expense of supporting convict LABOR IN laie-
ness or useless labor. And we favor the
ndoption of laws providing tor the protection
of workers in our mines and other HAZARDOUS
caliings and sch other measures as viii APP

industrial population. are earnestly OPP

efforts 70 earn an honest livelihood.

Thu paramount interest Of civilization re-
ouiTes that the money used as clrcu lating
medium in any county shall nj all times pear
n 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 which are robbery
of the debtor, stagnatioD Of business, reduc-
ton of wages, and the enslavement OF the
masses for tho benefit OF bondholders ana
graspinR creditors. We denounce the oonu,
holders' conspiracy TO demonetise silver ana
contract the money Of the world 10 a single
gold standard as a crime against civilization;
II would doubl the obligation OF bonus ana
Ali other contracts for the payment OF money,
which now aggregate in the ciVllihea WORM
the enormous SUN of more than one nnndIed
thousand million dollars, thereby making the
rich richer and the poor poorer, ana impOv-
arish the masses for a favorite few. We are
therefore in favor Of the free ana unllmlteu
coinage of both gold and silver on the OASIS
now provided by law:
