OF the United States that slave labor

and intelligent government. Ever since

advocate of the dignity and the just

OF labor and capital ankle. We recog

cution of business enterpris j
and we will ever insist that all prop

complete and efficient protection OF the
law whenever unjustly assailed.
RAILROAD ANTI-REBATE LAW.
We heartily approve of the late rail-
road rate law passed by a Republican
congress III initiated and signed by
President Roosevelt. We believe thai
al large ag~gregations of capital, and
especially u are are actively engaged
in interstate commerce, should be re-
IONS from the general public. We sub
nit that more has been accomplished
IN this direction by the Republican
party during the last two administra
lions than ever before occurred SINCE
we became an independent nation. We
pledge our candidate for congress to
support any legislation appearing reas
enable and necessary to prevent corpor-
ate aggression against popular rights.
TARIFF.
We continue to iniiexibly stand as
he Earnest supporters of the Ameri-
can protective tariff principle. Its
supremacy has been Invariably accom-
plished by industrial development, the
deviation OF labor, and the expansion OF
srade and commerce. Every attack
,h,reon formulated into law has been
followed by languishing industries,
general distress and the humiliation
Of American workmen. We believe
hat the toilers of our great nation
should not be brought into u~naavanta-
geous competition with the underpaid

products of American labor and those
of foreign labor 10 the equivalent III
ruinous competition between the labor

TAXATION OF NATIONAL BANKS.
We demand that the capital invested
an all national banks situated in Nevada
shall bear it's just proportion OF taxa
Lion, and we censure the action of
Governor Sparks in votoing the bill
passed by the last Legislature provia-
ing for such taxation, and we declare
squa.ly culpable with him, the Demo
cratic members of the last Legislature
who by their votes sustained the veto.
PUBLIC SCHOOL SYSTEM.
Our public school system will con.
tinue in the future, as 1T has in the
past, to find an unfailing friend in the
Republican party. The vital import
ance of liberal education as the surest
adequate preparation for a solf-govern'
ing peop.e cannot be overestimated by
those who are sincerely attached to
our form of government. AS an i'm
portant part of our educational system
the Nevada State University should
appeal to the pride OF all citizens, and
we firmly declare that until the promul

platform there has been no politics

GREETING.
AS a greeting to our political breth'
rem living beyond our territorial limits
and as a message to all of the well-dis-
posed citizens of Nevada, a state now
marching with great stridts toward
the goal of abundant wealth, regal
strength and exalted civic virtues, we
eonfadently predict that at the next
ensuing election a large majority of
the voters of Nevada will again rscord
their earnest approval of Republican
princ'p,ese and their cordial indorse-
ment of our matchless leader and chief
