Morning appeal. [volume] (Carson City, Nev.) 1877-1906, 1890-10-24
Platform and aeS0Iut.Ons


! Tbs record of the Republican party
is its best platform.
No political part- in human history
has taken such advanced positions
for the equality of races, none has SO
welded the administration of author
it to the needs of business, none has so
managed the affairs of a State as to
encourage the development and settle
ment of a continent, none has elevat-
ed nation and so contributed to the
comfort and happiness of man, none
has so honestly and economically car
ried on the routine duti IS of office.
In all things it has been the direct
! opposite of the Democratic party.
| Grand in its ambitions and impulses,
| firm and resolute in t. consistency,
| strong in its devotion to principle, it
| is now, as it has been from its berth,
| the representative of all that is best
and noblest in its own country and
hope and promise of a better future
| for the Irman race.
Its bat les for human rights, its pre-
servation of the Union, its abolition
| of slavery, its protection to labor, its
| elevation of manufacturers, its uphold
| ing of the national credit, its efforts
| i'll behalf of honest financial methods,
| its homestead system and its d evotion
| to popular education have mace for it
the greatesc record Of any political or
| ganizatiOn this or any other country
ever had.
The names of its heroes are legion,
and the deeds of Fremont, Lincoln,
Grant and Garfield will shrine like
electric lights on the pages Of history.
The Republicans of Nevada, in con-
vention assembled, heartily indorse
the acts of the flfty-irst Congress,
which has made greater advances in
correct and needed legislation than
any since the war.
The crime of filibustering, 50 often
resOrted to by the Democratic party
for the purpose of defeating legisla- +
ton and blocking the wheels of gov
ernment, has been done away with /
by the genius of Reed, Mckinley and /
their associates, and Che offenders /
taught that congressman are paid by 4
the people for making laws and not .
bad politics.
1t had, by a strictly party vote, 1
placed the silver question on a basis
that Will lead naturally to free coinage

1t has taken up the work of read

buSlleSs-like way, such as viii protect
the interest of labor and at the same
time encourage capital to enterprise
that will furnish 1t with employment
at good wages.
