ration of national trades unions and
limited the hours of labor for nation
al employees. 1t has ever thrown the
safeguard of Profession around all
American industries and has exalted
and dignified the man that tolls Ma
tionally it is the avOwed friend of
organized labor. and we, the Repub-
licans of Idaho. following the lead of
the party, pledge these organizations
our earnest support.
Fourth-The Republican party is in
favor of the policy of government
which results in the largest number of
people engaging in Independent enter
prise and business on their own ac-
count. and recognizes the fact that the
larger the proportion of the people so
engaged, the higher the stage of civ
ilizatiOn.
Resolved. That the formation Of
enormous over-capitalized corpora
tions, commonly called trusts, for the
purpose of concentrating all of the
Industries and products in the hands of
a few men, sitting competition and
enabling them to dictate the wages of
labor and the prices of commodities to
in the interest of their own aggran-
dizement. is a great and growing evil,
the plain remedy for which should be
laws regulating the capitalization of
corporations within reasonable and
moderate limits. We recognize the
fact that under the constitution of the
United States. as it now stands. no
adequate restrictions can be put upon
the organization of such corporations,
therefore we favor such an amendemnt
to the constitution as will enable con-
gress to effectually regulate and sup
press all trusts and injurious combi-
nations or aggregations of capital.
Fifth-Be it resolved that it is the
sense of this convention that it is of
great public interest that all the
lands within the borders of the for
est reservation of this state which are
more valuable for agriculture than for
any other purpose, be opened for set
Element to bona fide settlers, and we
urge that the department having this
in charge take immediate steps to that
end.
Sixth-We condemn the reckless dis
regard by the present state admins
tration of the best interests of the
state In the manner of the disposal of
the state timber lands.
We condemn the inefficient exercise
of the duties devolving upon the state
land board entrusted with the selec-
ton and securing title on behalf of
the state, of the public lands, timber
and agricultural, to which the state is
entitled under the laws of the United |
States.
We emphatically condemn our pres
ent state land boards arbitrary and |
unjust method of selecting timber |
lands in this state.
We condemn the action of the Dem
ocratic governor of Idaho in the veto |
of the sugar beet bounty bill, after it |
had passed the house of representa-
tievs by unanimous vote and the SEN
ate by a two-thirds majority, and we
are in favor of proper legislation for
the encouragement of this industry
We condemn the wasteful extrava-
gance of the present Democratic adj
the appointment of I'M
commissions. the expendf-
ture of public funds for unauthorized
and unnecessary offices, the intrOduc-
ton of partisan politics into the adj
of the educational laws

REPUBLICAN PLATFORM.

The following is the platform adopt
ed blythe Republican state convention:
The Republican party of the state of
Idaho in convention assembled at Boise
on this DIST day Of August, 1902. for the
purpose of nominating a congressional
and state ticket, do make the following
declarations of political principles:
First-Since the last meeting of the
Republicans in state convention. the
nation and the cause of humanity and
civilization have suffered an irrepar-
able loss in the death of President Nc
Kinley. His magnificent personal char
acter. his cool judgment. keen sense of
Justice and wise craftsmanship will
ever stand as guide to the people
in personal and political affairs.
We believe that i'm President RoOs-
evelt our party has found a worthy
leader whose fearlessness in the dis
charge of his duty. and whose devO-
ton to. the best interests of the whole
country prove him to be a worthy sue
cessOr to his lamented predecessor. and
the Republican party of Idaho extends
to President Roosevelt its hearty sup
port.
We especially endorse the foreign
policy of the administration and de-
nounce the unpatriOtic attitude Of the
Democratic party wherein it has
sought to degrade our army and navy
for the purpose of puerile political
gain. and has unhesitatingly made
common cause with the enimies of our
country in hopes that the same would
secure to it political advancement
SecOnd-The wisdom of the protec-
tive policy of the Republican party is
made manifest by its results. It needs
no vindication in view of the general
prosperity attendant upon all parts of
our country a prosperity that has
come to all classes of our citizens. and
that is in striking contrast with the
distressful conditions of the last ma
tional Democratic administration. We
therefore again reafirm our belief in
the policy of protection to American
industries and American labor.
That many of the industries of the
country have Outgrown the need of a
protective tariff is made evident by
the fact that the American manufac-
turer has entered the markets of the
world and is successfully competing
with the manufacturers of all other
countries. Many of the tariff sched-
ules adopted to foster infant indus
tries have fully served that purpose
and have now become a means of aid
ing and building up powerful trusts
and combinations, and enabled these
to exact from the American purchasers
the payment of higher prices than
they exact for the same class of
goods sold in foreign countries. We
therefore favor a revision of the
tariff. without unreasonable delay,
which will place upon the free list
every article and product controlled
by any monopoly. and such other ar
ticles and products as are beyond the
need of protection.
Third-Since fits organization the Re-
publican party has steadfastly been
the true friend of the workingman.
Our party in congress abolished the
competition of slaTS labor prohibited

SENIOR AMPIL is so DECLARED BY
GOVERNOR WRIGHT.
PROVINCE NEVER so PEACEFUL
Constabulary Have Already Dispersed
the Band and Captured Many Arms
and Other War Material-Mon-
tafon's Power Broken.
Gy Associated Press.)

Manila, March 7.-Acting Governor
Wright says that The province of Mo-
rong and the entire province OF Rial
were never more peaceful than they are
now and that the recent occurrences
were entirely due to the influence of in
surrectos who had been driven from La
Guna and Batangas provinces
The utterances of Senor Ampil, the
former president of the town of cainta,
Morong. who was recently captured by
insurgents and subsequently escaped,
are cassed by Mr. Wright as being un-
reliable and as merely the remarks Of
n man half crazy with terror.
The action Of the band which captured
Ampil was largely due to personal
vendetta. The constabulary have already
dispersed the band and captured many
arms and have completely broken the
power of Montalon, the old ladrone
chief, who. for years was the terror o,
the province.
Mr.. Wright feels satisfied from con-
versatons with General Beal and 9TH
ers that the insurreGton Is expiring.

best sheltered and the crew worked like
clockwork in getting out the boats.
The only exception to the good behav-
ior of the passengers was In the case OF
a saloon passenger who rushed hither
and thither, calling in turn on heaven
and earth to rescue him.
Fortunately the other passengers We're
not affected by this mans pitiable mental
agony but were quietly and methodically
marshalled into the boats.
THE experience in the small boats
was trying on account of the darkness
and cold. We did not know exactly
where we were and for long time could
not discover the whereabouts of the Har-
monides, though she was nearby.
Then Came the Explosion.
The boats stood well away from the
sinking vessel and for fear of being
sucked down and we could hear the
rending and tearing Of her timbers as she
seemed to break in two.
Then there was terrible explosion
as the boilers blew up and all was over
I'VE drifted and rowed for seemingly
two or three hours, finally getting In
touch with the Harmonides. We had no
difficulty in getting on board. All our
effects went to the bottom with the
Waesland.'
AS the last boat was leaving the ships
side, cries for help were heard on board
of her and the boat returned and found
that two of the WaeSland's 8 crew had been
left behind.
One of these men had slept throughout
from the first impact to the last boat
leaving the sinking steamer and only dis
covered his perilous plight when the sea
water flooded his bunk through the port
holes.
