of both capital and labor, whom 1t |
holds as equal and concordant parts !
of the nation S Industrial economy. ]
The Republican party will not sup
port capital in oppression nor labor
in violence. 1t recognizes organized
labor as the unity of industrial ac-
ton, striving to secure a more equit-
able distribution of the fruits OF
industry. 1t is the trusted ally oil
both capital and labor; for capital in
the things which are essential to the
successful government of enterprises,
and with labor in its crusade for rea-
sonable hours at the highest wages
consistent with the successful conduct
of business. In this state it favors
eight hours labor upon all public
works and as the legal work day in
mines, quartz mills and shelters, and
will uphold legislation giving it proper
and equitable force and effect.
The platform refers with pride to
the public schools of Nevada and the
State University, and in concluding
states that there is now no issue be-
tween national parties on the subject
of finance invites the progressive
citizens of Nevada who have hitherto
voted against the Republican ticket
to renew their political fellowship
with the party and share with them
in the glories of certain victory at
the coming general election.
