'l' LABOR. .. 49, -. 49,.
We demand that no law shall ever
be enacted restraining or abridging
the developement of our natural re-
sources and we guarantee to the peo-
pie freedom of pursuit and the mal-
ienable right to enjoy the full value
of all property that their labor; pro-
| duces. We hold it as one of the tru-
isms 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 foot
ing before the law, and that the la
borer should Always receive fair
compensation for fair days work
That both capital and labor have the
legal and unquestionable right to or
ganiZe for mutual protection and self
preservation. L..
We believe that a national and a
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 Commissioners
be final and binding alike on the en-
ployer and the employees.
