Once they've slid down the throttle,
Leave us an empty register
Likewise an empty bottle.
If we gave away our goods,
To each and all who beg,
We'd be without the 'jingle" soon,
And find an empty keg.
But all who come with square intent,
Be it from near or far,

CAPITAL AND LABOR

We submit the labor record of the
Republican party against the professions
OF Democracy. Republicanism has built
up tariff wall about this country which
gives the American markets to the pro-
ducts OF American labor. It 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 safeguarding of the life and limb
of employees. 1t has under Theodore
Roosevelt submitted arbitration, as in
the coal strike, for the bullet and bayo-
net of the last Democratic administra-
ton in its settlement of the Pullman
strike. Promising little, performing
much, it has been the true and tried
friend of both capital and labor whom
1t holds as equal and concordant parts
OF the nations industrial economy. The
Republican party will not support capi-
tai in oppression nor labor in violence.
II recognizes organized labor as the unity
of industrial action, striving TO secure
more equitable distribution of the
fruits Of industry. 1t is the trusted ally
of 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 reason
able hours at the highest wages consis-
tent with the successful conduct of
business. In this State 1t favors eight
hours labor upon all public works and
as the legal work day in mines, quartz
mills and smelters, and will uphold
Legislation giving il proper and equitable
force and effect.
STATE INSTITUTIONS.
We favor the economic conduct ofthe
State government, the generous treat
ment of the orphan wards of the State
and the humane care of the insane. We
are justly proud of the public school
system of Nevada and the State Univer-
sity and will favor all reasonable prop
ositions calculated to improve their
efficiency and usefulness.
INVITATION TO SILVER REPUBLICANS.
Recognizing the fact that many of the
most patriotic and progressive citizens of
the State of Nevada have for several
years past cast their ballots against the
Republican ticket because of their dis
belief in the financial views of the fact
that there is no issue between the party
and the national parties upon the subject
of finance, cordially invite all such fellow
citizens to renew their political fellow
ship with us and to share with us in the
glories of our certain victory at the
coming general election.

President Roosevelt to Boys.

The Presidents address to the boys at Gro
ton, Mass, was along the line he has often fol-
lowed in talking to older people. He spoke of
the value in a boys makeup, of pluck, COM
vert never Taffs eEBpnasT1e-UEss eluIEuiEr
cency when speaking of requisites for success
in public life. He has had sufficient expert
ence with men to know that there is not an
overstock of decency in politics in these times
and what there is of it is frequently in danger
of being diluted or destroyed. boy properly
equipped, the President thinks will start right
and be sufficiently manly and self-reliaDt not
to become a snob. There are" he said, in
our social and civic life worse creatures than
snobs. but no creature is more contemplate
"a sharp thrust, but one that goes straight to
the mark. The President is always ready to
praise a courageous person, one not afraid OF
work, fighting always in the open and never
compromising with anything that is unmanly.
He is himselfa good example of ar energetic
American who is convinced that he must night
if he would win, and that victory is worth all
the more if it has cost an effort. He breaches
a sound, wholesome doctrine, just the kind
that is encouraging to industrious, self-reliant
Americans.

IT is now the season of the year when news
paper discussion begins concerning the lend
seats in trolley cars and condemnation of the
american hog who will not ''move up"
and give the best seat to the last conner. All
such talk is nonsense, for it must occur to
philosopher and observer eventually that the
'hog' business comes in in the construction
of cars with SO many seats and consequently
so little space between seats that passage is
rendered difficult, if not impossible. 1t is an
interesting question whether the first in the
car hasn't the right to choose his seat and
whether the last to come along has the right
to crowd him out of the best place and
quietly take it for himself. Let us all consider
this and come to conclusion before the sum-
mer begins, which promises full cars at all
hours.
