Notwithstanding the formidable combirntion
existing between the gold rings, national

white laboring classes of both sexes, by its in

substance. $50 1000 Chinese coolies.
Sixth-We demand tho immediate abroestion
of the Burlingame treaty and the total sup
preston of Chinese immigration to American
soil. and we favor Legislation providing for
the uepOrtAtlOn OF ali Chinese IN the United
States, aud we recommend the exclusive pat
ronage of white labor and its produce.
Seventh-Tne introduction by Senator Fair
of his Chinese Restriction bill and his success
IN passing the same deserves the approval Of
the entire people of the Pacific Coast.
Eighth-A proper regard for the we fare of
the workingfnan being insopsrably connected

encouraged and expressly sanctioned by law
and the Democratic party of Nevada is in

ing and encouraging the formation OF cooper.
alive and protective societies among all classes

.Tenth-We approve tho action OF the DEM
ocratlc House Of Congress in FORGETTING and
restoring to the public domain for homesteads
for actual ~Aettlers nearly a hundred millions
Of acres of unearned lands heretofore granted
by Republican Congresses to railroad corpora
tons, and we also approve the Act preventing
1 hAAtL VI OF AAh&Aa Vi IuDllC
lands in the United States.
Elevsnth-We commend the policy OF the
present Administration In strictly enforcing
the tariff laws. the beneficial effect OF which
is SO happily illustrated by the fact that the
great wool growing industry Of the country
receives more protection now by collecting
the whole import duties ON wool, than 1t did
under the high tariff of 1867 under the prac-
tice by Republican officials of letting foreign
wool slip through our Custom.houses 1T less
than one-half Of said duties.

try OF this State, and OF the miner the pio-
neer Of civilization on this Coast-as well as
OF the whole people Of Nevada, we earnestly
recommend 20 the authorities 1T Washington
the Immediate opening and permanent ran
ming Of the United States Mint at Carson City,
to the end that our mines may be relieved
from the unnecessary and burdensome ex-

complish this result.
