The platform says:
1--WE earnestly, emptatical1y, oppose the
frce-trade policy and single gold standard
of Great Britain. On the contrary, we
demand adequate protection for all home
industries, North, South, East and West.
so as to maintain the American standard
of wages. 10 this end we favor a tariff
on foreign goods competing with domestic
goods equal to the differences between for
| eign and American wages. With the ex-
ception of articles of luxury, goods which,
by reason of climatic or other conditions.
cannot be proftably produced in this coun-
try, should be admitted free. BY adher-
ence to the Republican principle of reci-
procity, new and larger markets for our
farm products car and ought to be Sc
cured.
I'VE are opposed to the fiat paper money
doctrine of the Populist. party, and be-
| lie-e in a metallic basis for our currency,
consisting of both gold and silver; the
Republican party Of North Dakota de-
mands the use of both these metals as
STANDARD money. W. also demand that
the mints be opened to the coinage of
sill, er mined in the United States, with
such restrictions and under such pro-
visions, to be det-l mined by legislation,
as will maintain the parity of values of
The two metals. The purchasing and
debt-paying power of every dollar must
always be kept equal to that of every
OTHER dollar Congress should levy a tax
on importation of silver sufficient to pro-
.tect fully the products of our W mines.
Believing in the dignity of labor and
in the right OF workingmen to peacefully
contend for their share OF the product Of
their toll, we favor II code of arbitration
or conciliation, state aud national, by
which both cmploye and employer shall
he bound, and we recommend that con-
gress so amend the interstate commerce
law as to provide for the orderly settle
nent of disputes between capital and
labor BY the enactment of the inter-
state commerce law a Republican con-
gress established the right of the federal
government to regulate and control rail-
ways engaged in interstate commerce.
Such control should be fully exercised
to the end that people shall not be COM
PEELED to pay interest on watered stock
and fictitious values, but that rates may
be fair and equal for equal service.
"Realizing now, as heretofore, the evils
of the public saloon, we favor the enforce
ment of our laws controlling the liquor
traffic.
1--WE commend to the favorable consid-
Grafton of the next legislative assembly
the question of granting the suffrage to
women.
For the protection of depositors in ma
tlonal and state banks and prevent the
withdrawal of money from circulation, We
believ that the federal aud state gov
eminent should guarantee such deposit
tors against loss, reimbursing itself by o
tax on the bonds"
The platform favOrs lower rates SO that
the North Dakota coal beds may be de-
veloped; it condemns the Democracy for
it's opposition to reciprocity, for placing
wool ON the free list, for its Hawaiian
policy, and for its unpatriotic interpreta-
ton of the pension laws.
All interests in the party have been
consolidated, and not one word was said
in the convention that was in the least
degree calculated to stir up strife .
The convention named a state central
committee before adjourning There is
one member at large, Gen. Alexander
Hughes of Burleigh county, named by the
chair, and one from each senatorial dis
trict. The Fourteenth and Fifteenth dis
