of the government; to preserve the oonst-
tuition of the United States the autonomy
of the states; local self government and
freedom of elections; to resist revolutionary
changes, Capitalization of power and the
appropriation of public moneys to purposes
other than the support of the government,
economically administered; to oppose com
mercial restrictions for the benefit of the
few at the cost of the many. and class legis-
lation which despoils labor to build up
monopoly.
