We approve of their recommendation
that all government assets be inven.

that the party of the people should ad-
vocate plan for the more adequate

the people.

Labor and Capital.

We stand for the equality of labor
and capital. We uphold the Territorial
Executive in the strict enforcement OF
the statute requiring that all labor on
public works shall be performed by citi
zens of the United States, or those eli
gible to become such, and we believe IL
the extension of this principle to labor
on Federal works.

Stands by the Tariff.

We reiterate our firm belief in pro-
teet;ve tariff as the basis of the pros
perity of the American nation, and
particularly of the Territory of HAWAII.
The development of the agricultural IN
terests of this Territory requires the
continuance of tariff protection In order
to shield our products against ruinous
foreign competition.

Deposit of Public Funds.

In order to keep money in circula
tion, and for the purpose of securing
revenue and increasing the demand fol
Territorial and County bonds, we favor
legislation permitting the deposit OF
Territorial and County funds in the
banks at fair rate of interest, and
upon approved security and under
proper safeguards.

shipping Subventions.

We believe in the payment of sub
sides for the encouragement of the
American merchant marine, the promo
ton of the commerce of the Pacific,
and the perpetuation of the American
flag on the high seas, believing, further,
that such action is Immediately neees-
sary to prevent the disappearance OIL
American ships from the ocean.

Hawaiian Defenses.

We commend the patriotism display
ed by the President and members of
Congress in advocating liberal appro-
priations for the defense of the har-
bors of this Territory, and the estab-
lishment of a navy yard at Pearl Har-
Dor. A due regard for the aspirations
of other nations requires of our states
men a high and patriotic appreciation
of the strategical Importance of. this
frontier of the Nation. We desire the
retention in the Pacific Ocean of naval
force of sufficient strength to meet all
possible requirements.

No Government by Commission.

The Republican party emphatically
denounces, as being detrimental to the
best interests of this Territory, the adj
vocaey of government by commission
in place of the present form of Terri
torial government. AS the consistent
friend and advocate of free and popu-
lar government of and by the people,
this party promises to do all IN its
power to maintain the existing govern
ment until the time shall come when
Hawaii is prepared to take her place
as one of the States of the Union.
