and furnishing the good nam
of the United States. We con.
demn the action of the Demo
cratic House Of Representative
in refusing during all the lona
session of Congress which ha
just closed to consider any meas
urc tending to relieve our coun-
try from the blighting curse Q
polygamy and peIygamous rule
in Utah and the surrounding
Territories.
! K.
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 CONF
petition with convict labor,
which does not impose upon
free labor the expense Of sup
porting convict labor in idieness
or useless labor. And we favor
the adoption of laws providing
for the protection of workers in
cur mines and etaer hazardous
callings, and such other meas
ures as will approve the mater
ial and social welfare of our in
dnstrial population. We are
earn nastly opposed to the doctrine
Of tie so-called anarchists, and
Ne n2lieve III the most perfect
protection to each and every in
divi,lu,l in the enjoyment of the
fruits Of all his personal efforts
to earn an honest livelihood.
XI.
The paramount interest Of
civilization requires that the
money used as a circulating me-
dunn in any country shall at all
times bear constant ratio to
the increasing population Of that
country, Contraction Of the
currency involves all financial
evils to which q nation can be
subjected, nmsng 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 bondholders.
conspiracy to demonetize silver
and contract the money of the
world to single gold standard
as a 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, ana
thereby make tho rich richer
and the poor poorer, and impov-
arish the masses for favorite |
few. We are therefore in favor
If the free and unlimited coin
age of both gold and silver on
he basis now provided by law.
XII.
We condemn the Democratic |
House of Representatives for re-
using to make the necessary
appropriations for the construc-
ion of suitable navy for the
lefense Of our commerce and
he protection of our citizens at
rome and abroad, and we par
icGlarly condemn it for refusing
o make any appropriation for
o.tifications to protect our ex-
enSive sea coast while there
vas IL vast surplus in the Treas
Try, and thousands Of laborers
'ut OF employment.
XIII.
We again declare our constant
with the just and con-
istent Republican policy and
practice of granting out Of the
Nations abundance generous
tensions to the disabled veterans
# our wars, whether for the
ountry's defense or for the
ofthe Union. We
protest against the removal from
'fficial places of worthy and dis
lbled Union soldiers to make
way for partisan civilians and
:X-Confederates.
XIV.
In common with all loyal peo-
lie of the land we mourn the
Oss to our country of the heroic
lead, and especially that great
republican, as well as great sol |
lier and statesman, Ulysses 8.
