PLATFORM:

The Republican party Of Nevada in
State Convention assembled reaffirms
its adherence to the principles Of Re-
p%ublicanism as expressed in the ma
tional platform and wrought into the
government Of the nation from Abra-
ham Lincoln to Theodore Roosevelt.
The history Of Republicanism is the
party's mightiest platform. Endorsing
the nominees Of the national owen
ton, we affirm that no man In public
or private life in this country is more
fitted in honesty, daring, uncompro-
missing independence, steadfastness In
what he believes to be right and sound
judgement to guide the American peo-
pie In the fulfiliment OF their destiny
The next four years than Theodore
Roosevelt, the stateman in peace. the
hero in war. the westerner always.
and the Republican nominee for Presi-
dent Of the United States.
We respectfully suggest to the vot-
ers Of Nevada that Alon Brooks Par
ker is too closely allied with the self
fish corporate and moneyed instuti-
lions Of Wall street and the lawless
and predatory monopolistic trusts OF
the country qualify him for the dis
charge OF the duties Of the office for
which the Democratic party Of the
United States has selected him. and
that no language which we ear frame
more aptIy illustrates his disqualified
lions than that freely and publically
employed by William Bryan. w. r.
Hears! and other leading men conspi-
~cuously prominent in the environment
OF the Democratic Presidential nomi-
nee we're subject to free and untram-
meled dicussion.

Capital and Labor.

SNkht0 ~ 1oROA
We submit the labor record Of the
Republican party against the profess
sions Of Democracy. Republicanism
has built up a tariff wall about this
country which gives the American
markets to the products Of American
labor. 1t has in every State where in
power enacted legislation favoring
shorter hours and sanitary conditions
Of labor. prohibited child labor, and
passed stringent laws for the safe
guarding Of the life and limb Of en-
~ployees. 1t has under Theodore
Roosevelt substituted arbitration. as In

net Of the last Democratic admins

whom it holds as equal and concordant
parts of the nations industrial econo-

support capital in oppression nor labor
in violence 1t recognizes organized
labor as the unity Of industrial action,
striving to secure a equitable dis

OUR MINES.

George Fleurshutz and Theodore

several rich prospects and the indica-

taken from this portion of Frank Free

with the outlook and II is possible that
some work may be done In the near
future. toward development.

twenty-five years have persistently
urged and fought for irrigation legisla-
ton, and to the engineers who have
measured Western streams and
threaded the mountains and deserts to
learn the possibilities Of storage and
reclamation we give due and generous
credit and the f~ullness Of our gratitude.
But above all we declare that the ring
ing and insistent recommendation of
Theodore Roosevelt that Congress
consider this subjuct was responsible
for the crlstalization of all theories and
plans into the bills known as the Ma
tlonal Irrigation Law, which was franz
ed and agreed to by all western Sena-
tors and Congressman and introduced
simultaneously 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.
We rejoice in the requirement by the
United States of sufficient lsthmian
territory upon which to excavate, con-
struct and operate a commercial canal
between the Atlantic and the Pacific
oceans entirely regulated and controll-
ed by the government of the United
States and which will greatly promote
the industrial development Of all sec
ions of the Pacific Coast and we es-
peclally regret that Senator Francis
G. Newlands so far forgot the substan-
tlal interests of the State Of Nevada as
to interpose his vote in the Senate of
the United States against the ratifica-
ton Of the treaty between the United
States and the Republic of Panama In
a vain attempt to interdict the building
of such canal.

National Irrigation.

We congratulate the people Of the
State of Nevada upon the passage Of
the national irrigation law which will
ultimately reclaim the arid lands Of
The west. and which will within a few
years transform the desert wastes Of
Nevada Into fruitful homesteads. We
assert hat the attempt to steal the
credit Of this great act for one man

agilated this subject. to the western

A Tragic Suicide.

One of the most tragic cases
of suicide that has ever occurred
at Hinton was that of George H..
Hepburn at the home of his ia
ther-in-law, P. NJ Knight, on Sum-
mers street, last night. Hepburn
belonged to a prominent family in
Piedmont, but had been residing
some time at Hinton. He had
been out of employment for some
time, but expected to come to
Parkersburg, but received a let
ter that he was not needed. He
told his wife that he was going to
Indiana to secure employment. He
sat down and wrote a letter while
his wife packed his valise. Going
to the mirror he drew mark IN
the middle of his forehead, then
took a revolver, and before his
wife could prevent him, sent a
leaden messenger into his brain.

Over a Billion for Drink.

The drink bill of the United

Inmates made by experts, is $1S a

timated that one-fourth the pOpu-
lation use stimulating beverages
habitually, though but a small
proportion to excess, the entire
amount expended being in one
wear about 81, 425, 100000. 1t is a
somewhat strange condition that
with the individual increase OF
consumption of strong drink from
ten to nineteen gallons in twenty
wears. there has come an increase
of 500 in the consumption OF cot
fee and a decrease in consump-
ton of tea of a considerable per-
centage. In retail cost beer stands
at the head of all alcoholic bever-
ages. with a bill of more than
$727. 900, 900. The Government
