We indorse the Republican administration

without reserve the nominees Of the Republi-
can State Convention, and pledge them the
undivided support of all Republicans of Eu-
reka county.
We expressly adopt and indorse the plat.
form and principles Of our Republican State

common country, and we pledge our nomi.
nees on our legislative ticket, in case of their
election. to support every measure tending to
make an eight-hour day a days labor on all
public works. mines and smelters, and to
every measure for the amelioration of the
laboring classes.
While we still are in favor of silver as Q

the various County Assessors q State Board Of
Eqalization as having become useless and
simply a pretext for ~squandering the money
of the taxpayers Of the State of Nevada.

District comprising Eureka county, and
pledge our legislative nominees, in the event
of their election. to use every endeavor to
secure the passage of q bill to that end.
