whether native or foreign born, an
honest days pay for an honest days
work.
Fifth-Recognizing the importance
and necessity of providing a means
whereby honest labor may enforce
recognition of its full demand from
all classes and conditions of employers
engaged in bushes of a public nature
and believing that arbitration, based
on full information of all the facts in
each case, would secure justice to all
concerned.
We hereby demand that our Rep
resentatives in Congress use all honor
able means to secure the passage, at
the earliest possible moment, of a Ma
tional Labor Arbitration Law provid-
ing fully for the adjustment of such
differences as may arise between labor
and its employer, and clothing such
Act with such proper and adequate
vindicatory and penal causes, as will
enable those interested to compel
compliance with its provisions.
We also favor the creation of State
Board of Arbitration of like character
for the same purpose and clothed with
similar powers.
Sixth-We demand the immediate
and unconditional repeal of the sus-
pensory clause of the Interstate Con-
merce Law, SO that said law may OPP
crate Justly and uniformly in every
State of the Union, and Nevada re-
ceive her share of it's benefits.
SILVER PARTY DENOUNCED.
Seventh-We solemnly declare that
the attitude of the Silver party of this
State presents false issue and conveys
the impression abroad that we are
divided upon the silver question, when
in truth and in fact there is no senti-
ment in the State adverse to the COM
plete restoration of silver.
In this behalf we deem it proper to
point to the record made by the Leg
islature of 1898. Elected upon the
silver issue alone, that Legislature
proved itself the most servile to the
Southern Pacific Railroad Company of
any that ever convened in this State,
as was conclusively shown in the adop-
ton by an almost unanimous vote of
the members of that party, of Senate
Joint Resolution No. 4, by which our
Senators and Representative in Con-
gress were urgently requested to do all
in their power to promote and secure
the passage of an Act of Congress for
the adjustment or refunding of the in
debtedness of the Southern Pacific
Railroad, thus emphatically endorsing
the principles of the Reilly bill now
pending in Congress, and going to a
greater length in subserviency to that
company than any party in the State
of Nevada had ever gone before. And
we cordially endorse the action of those
Republican Senators who voted against
that resolution, and the course of the
Republican Governor who refused to
give it his sanction.
Upon the maturing of the debts of
the Pacific Railroad Company to the
United States, we are in favor of the
Government speedily enforcing its de-
mand in the best and most advantage
Gus way.
Eighth-We are most heartily in IA
vor of the construction of competing
line of railroad across the State of Ne
vada, and urge the Legislature of the
State to give proper encouragement to
any parties who will undertake the
construction of such road.
Nineth-We Indignantly condemn the
action of the self-styled Silver Party
of Nevada, as represented in the Six
tenth Session of the Legislature, for
passing proposed Constitutional
amendment authorizing lottery. We
declare the Republican party of Ne
vada to be unalterably opposed to any
lottery whatever, and especially to the
proposed one, which would shame
lessly make the State of Nevada a
stakeholder therein, and every county
in the State a sharer of its booty. We
urgently recommend that every Re-
publican County Convention in the
State pledge it's legislative nominees to
vote against the pending proposed lot
terry amendment to the Nevada Con-
stitution.
