. tempt of the Democratic majcrit
t in the National House of Rel
e resentatives to pass the Morr
son Bill reducing the tariff o
the product of our mines an
f placing wool on the free list.
IN.
We believe in American sol
for American citizens, and ar
opposed to nonresident alien
: becoming land owners. Tn
public domain should be reserv
ed as homesteads for actual set
tiers, and the accumulation o
large tracts or bodies of land il
the hands of corporations or in
dividuals should be discouraged
and in the case OF land grant:
to railroad corporations where
the corporations have failed t.
comply with the conditions o.
the grants the land should be
forfeited to the General Govern
ornment, and held for the bene-
fit Of actual settlers.
Y.
We favor the intelligent or
| ganiZation of labor for such wor-
thy purposes as mutual educa-
ton and for the protection of
their interests in all things re-
lating to their welfare and to the
industrial welfare Of the country,
and we favor the enactment of
State and National laws provid-
ing for the settlement Of contro-
versies between employers AMI
employees by methods of volun-
tary arbitration, or by the estab-
fishing of Courts Of Cancellation,
which will avoid the waste, loss
and iIl-feeling resulting from
strikes and lock -outs, and the
usua! expense OF litigation.

We denounce the action of the
Democratic House of Represen-
tatives at its last session in strik-
ing from the bill to compensate
the citizens Of this State for
losses sustained in the Indian
War of 1860 all claims for sup
plies furnished for the suppress
ion of Indian hostilities, and also
for services rendered during that
memorable struggle in which
the lives of a large number of
our most respected citizens were
sacrificed.
VII.
We denounce the pretense of
the Democratic party of having
sympathy for the cause of local
self-government III Ireland,
while the Democratic House Of
Representatives., in Committee
,f the whole, repeatedly refused
% indorse that principle. IN
.he months Of April and June
asst that body OF Democratic
votes on three several occasions
'ejected a resolution indorsing a
rec parliament for Ireland,
which is in the following words:
"RcSolved, That the House
# Representatives earnestly
'ymIathize with Right IIon.
y Gladstone and his
in their efforts to Sc
'ure free parliament for the
people OF Ireland, and congratu-
ate the people Of that hitherto
unhappy country, upon the
prospect of an early and success
ul Termination oftheil long and
,atriotic struggle for the right
f local seii-government."
Thereby discouraging the
,rJwth Of u liberal spirit
throughout Great Britain.
VIII.
We commend the efforts Of
Jones and Congressman
Noodburn in obtaining an ap-
of 100000 for pub
ic land surveys in this State,
nd we condemn the action of I
he Commissioner of the Gener- {
/ Land Office in Withholding {
appropriated for that |
purpose, and particularly con-
Iemn the action of Senator Fair c
n absenting himself from Wash a
