ADDRESS To VOTERS
Of NEVADA
Adopted b, the Republican
State Central Committee
in Reno Last Friday

Fellow Citizens of Nevada: Realiz-
ing that once again we are about to
enter Upon a great political compaign,
for the purpose of determining the flu
ture policies of this grand republic.
Believing as we do that it becomes
the duty of every citizen to conscien-
tiously and honestly consider matters
governmental and political, to the end
that the future conduct of those affairs
may be such as will confer the great
est good to the greatest number of the
people governed. Recognizing the ne
cessity and rights OF the two domin-
ant political parties of the United
States to appeal to the people upon
these questions, we moderately submit
for the consideration of the people of
this state the questions at issue be-
eween these WI great parties, and ask
them. with that feeling of honesty
that constitutes a good citizen, to con-
slider the history of these two parties,
and the practical illustration of their
separate administrations, and COM
pare them, with the benefits derived
rom each respectively, and after such
elaboration upon the questions to
lrray themselves upon the side of the
party that from the evidence obtain
ible, promises the best government.
We point with pride to the Republi-
can party which has, with the ex-
ception of two terms, since 1861, had
control of the governmental affairs of
he United States; we ask you to take
nto consideration the many changes
ind conditions that have taken place
turing that time, and from such COM
Jarison to determine whether it is not
rue that this great party is the party
IF the hour, The party OF progress,
he party of the people, and for the
people; the party equal to the emer-
sencies and e~xigencies that arise from
he many new conditions and circum-
tances brought about in this progress
We age. by an aggressive, intelligent
people. Compare it's past history with
the history of the reign of Grover
Cleveland and the Democratic party,
md decide whether you will ally your
selves with the former or latter par
les in the coming campaign. Remem-
Der that neither of these two great
parties have any probationary per-
iods of membership: that you are a
Republican or a Democrat from the
moment that you decide to cas- %
ballot with the one or the other OF
these parties; that you are entitled
to admission to the counsels of the
Republican party from the time that
you make your decision and are ELI
gible TO receive the nomination of that
party for any, Office to be filled by the
e~ralballots of the people at the next
election.
We particularly invite those of our
citizens who so valiantly fought the
battle of one of the principal products
OF this state from 1892 to 1900, who In
an effort TO maintain the silver pro
duct at a parity with the gold pro-
duct, forsook their party and entered
into an alliance with the party or
parties that promised them a victory
for that principle, to assist us In hand
ling ii controlling the live questions
of today, that confront us as a whole
people.
We admonish the members of ou
party to lay aside all personalities and
abor to the end, as becomes an Amer
'can citizen, that the great march OF
progress and prosperity goes on until
the mosl skeptical are convinced c.
the correctness of our principles ano
the honesty and patriotism of our par
ty.
REPUBLICAN STATE CENTRAL
COMMITTEE.
