Morning appeal. [volume] (Carson City, Nev.) 1877-1906, 1894-09-05


sources aHl we guarantee to the peo-
pie freedom of pursuit and the in
alienabls right to enjoy the full value
OF all the property that their labor
| produces. We hold it as one of the
| trI SINS of human existence and
modern progress and enterprise, that
capital and labor should go hand in
] hand In the general advancement,
happiness and good OF this great
commonwealth. Therefore, we claim
that capital and labor should stand on
an equal footing tefore the law, and
that the laborer shonld always Gre
ceive fair compensation for fair
| days work" That both capital and
labor have the legal and unquestion-
able right to organize for, mutual
protection and self-preservation.
We believe that national and
State board of Labor Commissioners
should be created by law and made
elective by the people to whom all
questions In dispute between capital
and labor should be referred and that
both parties concerned be compelled
to arbitrate and that the decision of
such Board Of Labor Commission
ers, be final and binding alike on
the employer and the employee.
OBEDIENCE TO THE LAWS REQUIRED
BY ALL.
We denounce the criminal suspen-
sion of the laws of Congress by the
President, such as the purchasing
clause of the Sherman Silver Bull
ion purchasing Act; the Geary Act
providing for the deportation of I'M
registered Chinese, when its consti-
nationality has been affirmed by the
Supreme Court, and his neglect and |
refusal to enforce the antitrust and |
Interstate Commerce Acts against !
wealthy offenders.
ELECTIVE FRANCHISE.
We denounce the purchase and /
sale of the Elective Franchise as |
destructive of our liberties and treas
on to our Government. We demand |
the Acknowledgement Of both parties
to tbs crime, and the punishment Of
the prisoner by fine and imprison-
ment, The franchise once sold shall |
be gone forever.
LOTTERIES.
The establishment of lottery in
this State would be blot upon the
people and would result in financial
ruin and moral degradation. There
fore, in the language of our Con.titu-
ton, mo lottery ticket shall be au-
thorized by this State, nor shall the
sale of lottery tickets be allowed"
We condemn in equal terms all Leg
islatures of this State which have at
tempted to legislats or authorize lot
teries or the sale of lottery tickets.
We are unalterably opposed to the
ratification of the proposed amend
ment to Section 1, Article IL, of the
Constitution of our State, wherein it
ignores all question of amnesty to
persons who after arriving at the age
Of eighteen years, bears arms against
the United States Governments, for
the reason that the same is un-Amer-
can In spirit and contrary to the
,lemency already extended such per-
sons for over thirty years, and we !
therefore recommend to the,voters of
he State to vote mo" on this prop
,sition.
SCHOOLS. {
We are justly proud of the Public c
Schools and State University of Ne
7ada; We believe they should be fos- c
cred and protected above all other I
rs upon them rests the
of our Government and :
he security of ovr liberties. We are
n favor of such legislation as will in :
'rease the efficiency and raise the ,
tandard of the Public Schools and
State University, until thorough
education, without expense, is placed c
within the reach of every child in t
y evada.
We denouncein the strongest terms
he Constitutional amendment to be 4
ubmitted to the people at the ensu-
ng election, providing for the invest
nent of school monies in other Sc
urities than Y. S, Government or
Nevada State bonds, and recon-.
mend to the electors of this State
hat the amendment above referred I
o which provides among other
