Republican Platform.

The republicans of South Dakota, in
convention represented, affirm their full
faith in and ALLEGIANCE to the declaration
OF principles adopted by the national
republican convention at st. Louis in its
entirety, constituting a platform Of a
great and progressive party, proud OF its
past record and achievements, courage
Gus in it's championship of the right and
unfaltering in the maintenance OF its po-
litical tenets.
.. We recognize in William Mckin-
ley, our candidate for president, and
Carrot A.. Hobart, the nominee for vice
president, two typical Americans, tried
in the public service and found able and
true, pure in their lives, untarnished in
their honor and close to the people In
their experiences and sympsthies, and
We pledge to them our most hearty and
willing effort and support, with the FULL
vote OF South Dakota in the electoral
college. With such a platform and in
vinclbie leader we enter the contest with
the inspiration of q sure prophecy OF
victory at the polls in November next.
3. We commend the present republl-
can administration of governmental al
fairs OF this state as honest and econom-
ical. and especially commend its steady
purpose ana effort in exposing and
bringing to speedy punishment a former
defsultiug state treasurer, and recover
ing back for the state 30 large a porpor'
ton Of the stolen funds; and We demand a
passage OF an act by our legislature bro
viding adequate punishment for defalc
tioDs OF public officers.
1 The republican party having al
ways been the friend Of labor and labor
ing men, deplores .the frequent strikes
and conflicts between employers and
employed, resulting at times in the de
struction Of life and property and great
injury to those Immediately concerned
and the public generally, and favors the
settlement OF all questions OF dispute
arising between labor and capital by le
gally constituted arbitration by which
all parties interested shall be bound.
