The daily silver state. [volume] (Winnemucca, Nev.) 1903-1907, 1906-10-27

The Republican party Of Nevada.
state convention assembled, submit
the glorious history of party aehiev
ment Of the administration Of Tho
dore Roosevelt as marking the highes
aceess of American government. Fro
a deb or nation-the heritage left ~
the last Democratic administration
the United Staes in a decade of r.
publican control, has passed to frs
plac among the creditor nations of ia
earth. The music Of prolific lndustr
els the air. The wage-earne- walk
the earth now as one to be recone
with in the division of prosperity. Jus
ice has smlttcn the highest, as well 81
tn meanest offender. Graft has bee
nurged from the conduct of public aa
fairs. Laws of supreme moment t.
mankind have been passed. The Par
anna canal has been made possible
The arid west viii be reclaimed by
governme ut aid. The trusts have beef
curbed by stringent laws; the rail
roads shorn of discriminating abuses
Above all there has been infused int
the conduct of public affairs a new
standard of civic probity, the exem
plar of which is Roosevelt. These ar
the signal results of a decade of Re
publican ism, which we submit to the
voters OF Nevada with confidence as
o their answer at the polls.
STATE GOVERNMENT.
The contrast between the admins
trative success of the Republican party
in national affairs and the humiliating
history of Democratic ineffieiency Il
Nevada calls for a change in the pc.
iitical control of the state. With off
cIaIs habItually absent IRON the cap,
itol, the executive departments of tn
state IN Democratic hands are cor
aueted with only haphazard regard t.
the public business. Such absenteeisui
is notorious, and coupled with tht
complete no~n-attendance Of the Demo
erale member OF congress from his
duties IN Washington, condemns thai
party as unworthy the further trust
of the people. We are entering upol
a golden era of development and the
necessity is urgent to vest the powers
OF state into competent hands. We
paeugc each and every nominee of tins
convention Tor any ofic. to at ali times
when not ~Justinably excused therefron
remain at his post OF duty, ready ano
prepared to eheerfully perform all pub
lac services required OF ham by law OF
by a proper regard for the convenient
u.spatcn OF official duties.
