After the appointment of committees an ad- journment was taken until 1 o’clock this afternoon, when resolutions and a platform were adopted and nomina tions made for county officers. Following are the committees ap pointed at the morning meeting: Order of business—Burghoizer, Powell and Ntghswander. Platform Merrill, Huston and Ev- an». Resolutions Whlteaker, Ford and West rope. H. M. Manville, who called tlie meeting to order, was chosen chair man and E. C. Cole secretary. Platform Adopt««!. The committee on platform re port - ed the following, which was unani- mously adopted: "We, your committee, beg to re port the following as the platform of the Socialist party of Lane county, Oregon: “We Indorse International social ism and pledge our support to the na tional ami state principles as ex pounded lu the national and state plat forms. “We believe In evolution, and that the present system has outlived Its usefulness, and each year works greater and greater hardships and in justice to the masses. “We believe It is folly to hope for relief under a syst'in that has Inflict ed the ills of which we complain. “We believe that the interests of the whole people will become para mount only when we shall establish a system that will eliminate profit, thereby removing the one great in centive to most of the evil-doing that at present covers our country and the wotld. “We believe that the program of the Socialist party Is the only solu tion to the problems now confronting the working class, who produce the wealth of the world ” Resolutions. The committee on resolutions re- ported as follows: the report being adopted: "We, your commute», on resolu tions, would respectfully submit the following: “We. the Socialists of Lane county. In convention assembled, realizing the Injustice of our present Insane system of industry, which every few years brings about a condition that throws out of employment hundreds of thousands of workers, entailing untold misery and creating a state of practical anarchy. Why? Because these same workers, having produced so much of the useful and necessary things that they need and suffer for the want of. That the owners of the tools of production can find no mar ket for their sale, therefore, there being no profit In their production, industry must cease and the workers be discharged. For this their needs be as great as ever and Idleness means suffering and misery, perhaps starvation. Profit Is the first, last and only consideration, and the workers must take their chances until such times as they are ‘run in’ or starve until conditions so shape themselves that profits are possible. Now, therefore, be it “Resolved.That we believe in equal opportunities for all, special privi leges for none. In other words, a square deal not in protestation sim ply. but In netual practice. “Resolved, That we believe the creator of wealth Is Infinitely above the wealth he has created, and should be considered first and independent ly, We believe the time has come when this unjust and Inadequate sys tem should be exchanged for one that will actually give «tuai opportuni ties to all and special privileges to none; which will do exact justice; which will provide work for all at all times, and instead of 1-5 give the workers the full product of their toil, thereby enabling all to enjoy all the things of life with leisure to cultivate their minds, morals and manners, and to educate their children. “Resolved. That as the present evils have grown up under the admin istration of the old parties, we have no reason to hope lot relief until new Ideals shape our policy; and be it further “Resolved. That the Socialist party offers the only sane program for our relief and emancipation. The Ticket. Following is the ticket nominated this afternoon: For representatives—V. B. Math ews. Goshen; A. E.
