ISTHMIAN CANAL.
We rejoice in the requirement by the
United States of sufficient 1sthmian ter
ritory upon which to excavate, construct
and operate a commercial canal betweea
the Atlantic and the Pacific oceans en-
tin ely regulated and controlled by the
government If the United States and
which will greatly promote the Industrial
DEVELOPMENT of all sections of the Pacific
coast, and we especially regret that Sen
ator Francis u. Newlands SO far fol go,
the substantial interests of the state OF
Nevada as to interpose his vote in the
senate of the United States against the
ratification of the treaty between the
United States and the republic of Pan
ANA in the vain attempt to interdict the
building of he canal.
UNITED STATES SENATORSHIP.
We congratulate the people of Nevada
upon the awakening Cf her prosperity in
field and mine, and that the hour is
struck which closes a quarter of a CEN
fury of state depression. That the dawn
has begun of a new era wherein TINS
commonwealth is destined to take high
AMI in agriculture, the industries and
mining. New LEADERS are called for to
represent in congress this new spirit OF
state devel pment. For the senate Oh the
United States the Republican parry pre-
sents the name of George S. N-xon, as
an able, true and loyal citizen worthy OF
such choice, familiar with and interested
in the varied industries of our state and
who is the first candidate for that su-
preme office presented by a Nevada con-
vention IN the past twenty-five years.
VIII is a bona fide resident and cit zen
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 secur his cleo
ton.
CAPITAL AND LABOR.
We submit the labor record of the Re-
publican party against the protest. MS of
Democracy. Republicamsm has built UP
a tariff wall about tbs country which
gives the American markets to the prod
ucts of American labor. 1t has in every
state where in power enacted legislation
favor.ng shorter hours and sanitary con-
diti ms of labor. prohibited child labor
and passed stringent laws for the safe
guarding of the lie and limb of en-
ployes. 1t has under Theodore Roose-
Welt substituted arbitration. as in the
aCu1 SfriLxa for tho hi1lat md ha Unnat of
The last Democratic adm. n:strati n in its
settlement of the Pullman strike. Prom
ising little, performing much, it has been
the true and tried fr end of both capital
and labor. whom it holds as equal and
concordant parts of the nations indus
trial econ my. The Republican party
will not support capital in oppression nor
labor in violence. 1t recognizes Organized
labor as the unity of industrial act4on,
striving to secure a IN re equitable dis
uibution of the fruits of industry. 1t is
he trusted ally of both capital and labor;
or capital in the things which are essen
Lial to the successful government of en-
~erprises, and with labor in its crusade
for reasonable h urs at the highest
wage consistent with the successful con
duct of business. In this state II fayors
eight hours labor upon all pubic works
md as the legal work day in mines,
tuartz mills and smelters, and will up
old legislation giving it proper anc
quitable f rec and effect.
STATE INSTITUTIONS.
We favor the economic conduct of the
tate government, the generous treat
nent of the orphan wards of the state
nd the humane care of the insane. We
lie justly proud of the public sclo | sys-
EN- of Neyad and the State UniveIs ty
md will favor all reasonable propositions
calculated to improve their efficiency ano
lsefulness.
INVITATION 40 SILVER REPUB-
LICANS.
Recognizing the fact that many of the
most patri tic and progressive citizens OF
he state of Nevada have for several
years past cast their ballots against the
Republican ticket because of their disbe.
lief In the financial views of the national
Republican party, although being in ac-
cord with it upon all other principles o,
party policy, we now, in view If the fac
hat there is no issue between the nation
al parties upon the subject of finance,
cord ally invite all such fellow-citizens 10
renew their political fellowship with US
md to share with us in the glories of III
certain victory at the coming genera.
