threatening the very existence of some
of the most important industries in the
State of Nevada, including that of wool
production, which even now furnishes
subsistence to large number of our
people.
Fourth-We recognize the fact if
the labor m .rket is overstocked-if
there are millions of idle men clamor-
ing for work, the employer is given an
undue advantage, and despite the best
directed and best intended efforts of
labor organizations to prevent it, the
price of labor is bound to fall.
This condition exist generally
throughout the United States at the
present time, and it is largely owing,
as we believe, to the vast tide of i'm
migration constantly rolling into the
country. Therefore we favor wise
restriction of immigration-not in the
spirit of prejudice, not upon the
theory that the respective foreigner
is an unworthy person, but solely with
a view of relieving the labor market
and insuring to the American citizen,
whether native or foreign born, an
honest days pay for an honest days
work.
Fifth-Recognizing the Importance
and necessity of providing means
whereby honest labor may enforce
recognition of it's full demand from
all classes and conditions of employers
engaged in busines of 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 Ma
tional Labor Arbitration Law provid-
ing fully for the adjustment of such
differences as may arise between labor
and it's employer, and clothing such
Act with such proper and adequate
vindicatory and penal causes, as will
enable those interested to compel a
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 Com
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 con-
veys 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 Representatives 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 debt 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
