We are opposed to the future
importation of Chinese to this
country, or of any other foreign
laborers, under the contract sys-
tenn, 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 idleness
or useless labor. And we favor
the adoption of laws providing
for the protection of workers in
our mines and other hazardous
callings, and such other meas
ures as will approve the mater
iil and social welfare of our in
dnstrial population. We are
earnestly opposed TO the doctrine

We believe in the most perfect
protection to each and every in
