l.
ment providing ecr the initiative and !
roferendum - - 49,
We congratulate the laboring men
Of this State that in pursuance Of thu
plain mandate Of the labor plank l,
our last platform the Democratic-Sn-
yer Party Legislature enacted an eight
hour law that was signed by Dem
ocratic Governor and upheld by this
Supreme Court of this State.
We also favor a national eight-hou:
law applicable to all public works.
We are opposed to the alormins
growth ON militarism and to the inter. ,
ference and settlement Of civil dis
putes by the military forces undd
the present Republican administration
We demand that all military author +,
tiles be subordinate to civil law.
For the protection of the life and
limb of employees we favor the pats
age Of a bill by the Legislature Of
the State of Nevada defining who ara
fellow servants in the occupations of
mining, railroading and all other ex-
ira hazardous occupations
We favor the passage of the laws
providing for the inspection of mines
and mining machinery, to insure the
safety of miners. We favor a law pro-
viding for arbitration for the settle
ment Of labor difficulties.
NO IMPERIALISM
We favor and especially emphasize
that plank in the St. Louis platform
: which declares that all men under
the American flag are entitled to the
protection of the institutions whose
emblem the flag is, even if they are
/ inherently unfit to be members Of
! the American body polite Wherever
2 there may exist a people incapable OF
g being governed by American laws un-
? der the American Constitution, the
5 territory or people ought not to be a
t part of the American domain. We IN
!, siSt that we ought to do for the Fill
L pinos what We have already done for
the Cubans. and it is our duty to make
/ that promise now and upon suita bic
V guarantees Of protection to citizens Of
4 cur own and other countries resident
: there at the time of our withdrawal
- set the Filipino people upon their feet
: free and independent to work out
II their destiny
It PANAMA CANAL TREATY.
J We favor the building Of the Pan
l. anna Canal but most strongly condemn
the methods adopted by President
/ Roosevelt in obtaining the right d
/ way for the Canal. We charge hin
Y in this particular with a violation OF
n the sacred principles upon which on:
t country was founded, with incitins
= and supporting rebellion in Colombia
1 a sister Republic, for the purpose +
a. unlawfully acquiring possession of {
e portion of its territory.
, ELECTION OF SENATORS.
i, We renew our demands for the cleo
ion of United States Senators by Gi
rect vote of the people
TRUSTS.
We are unalterably opposed to a
trusts and combinations formed f.
the purpose Of restraining trade, fl
- ing prices and mOnopolizing bushes;
We demand the strict enforcement c
the laws relative thereto and we FIJI
~ Their demand that such trusts an
combinations shall de deprived of a
tariff protection so far as it may b
necessary to effectually curb theI
- and prevent them from charging u:
go reasonable prices to the American col
- sumer.
- TRUSTS AND MONOPOLIES.
-N Trusts and all other unlawful con
binations of capital owe their bir-
80. to Republican laws, and their growt
to the encOura cement and protectio
Of the Republican administration. W
condemn President Roosevelt t
10 maintaining in the office of Attorne
va General Philander Knox, man WI
'u was made and owned by the trust
w and who did everything in his pow
to further and protect these Grimm
We
combinations.
