the ringing and insistent
ton Of Theodore Roosevelt that congress
consider this subject was responsible for
the capitalization Of all theories and
plans into the bill known as the Ma
tional Irrigation Law. which was framed
and agreed to by all the western senator's
and congressman and introduced stimuli
~taneously in The senate and house and
which would have failed in the house had
not Theodore Roosevelt finally brought
his great influence to bear to secure Its
passage.
IsTHMIAN CANAL.
We rejoice In the requirement by the
United States Of sufficient Ir.ESHian ter
ritory upon which to ~excavate. construct
and operate ID commercial canal between
the Atlantic and the Pacific oceans en-
tirely regulated and controlled by the
government Of the United States and
which will greatly promote the Industrial
development of all sections Of the Pacific
coast. and we especially regret that Sem
ator Francis q. NewIands so far forgot
the substantial interests OF the state of
Nevada as to i%nterpose his vote in the
senate of the United States against the
ratification of the treaty between the
United States and the republic of Pan
anna in the vain attempt to interdict ths
building of he canal.
UNITED STATES SENATORSHIP.
We congratulate the people of Nevada
Upon the awakening OF her prosperity IN
field and mine, and that the hour IL
struck which closes a quarter of a CEN
fury Of state depression. That the dawn
has begun OF & new era wherein this
commonwealth Is destined to TAX III
rank In agriculture, the industries and
mining. New leaders are called for t.
represent in congress this new spirit of
state development. For the senate o. the
United States the Republican parry pre-
sents the name OF George 8. Nixon. as
an able. true and loyal citizen worthy Of
such choice. familiar Wit and interested
in the varied industries Of our state and
who Is the first candidate for that SUI
vention in the past twenty-five years.
who Is a bona f1de resident and citizen
of Nevada. and pledges the efforts of the
Republican party to use all honorable
means and the votes OF its members in
the state legislature to secure his cleo
ton.
CAPITAL AND La
We submit the labor record OF the Re
publican party against the professions OF
Democracy. Republicanfsm has built Up
1 tarin wall about this country which
gives the American markets to the prod
acts of American labor. 1t has In every
state where in power enacted legislation
favoring shorter hours and sanitary con-
ditions Of ahor. prohibited child labor
and passed stringent laws for the safe
guarding Of the life and limb of en-
ployes. 1t has under Theodore Roose-
Welt substituted arbitration. as In the
,oal strike. for the bullet and bayonet OF
he last Democratic administrator in Its
settlement Of the Pullman strike. Prom
sing little. perfoi ming much. II has been
he true and tried friend of both capital
nd labor. whom 1t holds as equal and
concordant parts Of the nations Indus
trial economy. The Republican party
will not support capital In oppression nor
labor In violence. 1t recognizes organized
tabor as the unity of Industrial action.
striving to secure 4 more equitable dis
tribution of the fruits Of industry. 1t IS
the trusted ally of both capital and labor:
for capital in the things which are essen
tial to the successful government CT en-
terprises. and with labor in its crusade
for reasonable hours at the highest
wages consistent with the successful con-
duct of business. In this state II favers
eight hours labor upon all public works
and as the legal work day in mines
quartz mills and smelters, and will up
hold legislation giving 1t proper and
equitable force and effect.
