REPUBLICAN STATE PLATFORM.
u TLe Republican party Oregon, of in
. state convention assembled, proud of its
t record and past history, its devotion to
, the principlesof human liberty and hu
man rights, its great and imperishable
names which lend luster and glory to the
, American Nation at home and among
.tho nations of tho earth, and as nssur
. ance of its continued fidelity to the great
. principles for which it has contended in
the past in Stato and National affairs',
does hereby make and affirm the follow
, ing declaration of its principles:
The events of the late war with Spain
t carried us into the f hillppino Islands.
We hold it to bo conslstdiit with the
principles of Uberty'and of our National
dife that the sovereignty of the United
t States should bo maintained in the Is
r Janus, under such local self-government
Zip the people max,bo, or, may become,
SUu, toparupipato in. we tnereiore
deslara against H proposals looking to
i
tho retirement of thoUultcd Btatea from
tho Philippine lelands.
That In tho- war which President
Roosevolt has 'inaugurated against tho
gigantic combinations of incorporated
capital ho has tho United and enthusias
tic support of tho Republican party of
Oregon. 1
Wo demand and insist tp6a tho pasa-
agoof tho bill now pending in Congress.1
for tho exclusion of Chineso, known as
the Mitchell Kahn exclusion bill.
Wo reaffirm our nlleglnuco to tho prta
clbleaof protection, in ncce sary cases of
industries still In thoir Infancy or unable
to compoto with foreign productions.
Wo recogoUo tho right of labor to or
ganize and combine for mutual protection
undor tho law, and Vru recommend that
tho Legislature enact all neceseary leg
islation to protect labor in alius rights
and privileges. In tho intorort of Amer
ican labor' and tho upbuilding of tho
working man as tho corner stouo of tho
prosperity of our couutry, we recommend
that Congress creato a Department of
Labor in charge of a secretary, with a
seat in the Cabinet.
We demand that a law be passed by
the next Leglslatnro placing all' public
officers of this state upon reasonable sal
aries, which shall not bo increased during
tho incumbent's term of ollico. and be
yond such salary tnoy shall recoivo no
cc mpeneation as fees or otherwise
In order to promote tho development
of tho mineral tesonrcea of tho stato, wo
aro in favor of tho creation and mainte
nance of a miuuig bureau by the state.
We declare our approval and support
of the suggestions of President Roosovelt
for tho irrigation of tho arid lands of
tho couutry. This work should be un
dertaken by the United States as soon as
possible, and parried forward on a con
sistent plan, under direction of the Gen
eral Government.
We urge our Representatives in Con
gress and Senators to uso ovcry effort to
secure tho spedy opening of the Colum
bia River between the Dalles and Cclilo,
and for clearing tho river of obstructions
to navigation from its mouth to tho head
of navigation. Wo nrge aleo renewed
and continued effort for improvement of
ourCoaet hai boraand streams within the
state, and the speedy construction of an
Isthmian canal. '
That the public lands are tho heritage
of tho common people and should bo
hold in trust for tho use and benefit of
all the people under tho homestead laws.
We aro therefore unalterably oppossed
to all plans, schemes or propositions for
leasing public domains, cither to corpor
ations or individuals.
We favor a policy by tho stato ant! the
United States which shall further foster
and support our fisheries, and we request
the Legislature to enact such further
measures -as may be found by experience
necessary to obtain this result.
We demand and insist upon tho im
mediate passage by Congress of the
United States of the oleomargarine hill,
known aq tho Grout bill, now pending in
the Senate.
That we favor tho proposed amend
ment to tho stato constitution providing
for the initiative and referendum, and
recommend its adoption by tho peoplo
of the elate,
We declare our approval of the prin
ciples of the primary law enacted by
tho Legislature at tho scsiiou of 1001,
and we ask tho Legislature to extend
this law so that in its main features it
may apply to primary elections In all
election precincts throughout tho state.
And wo further recommend the election
of United States Senators by popular
volo.
FOR ATTORNEY GENERAL.

Republican Nominee.
A GOOD OFFICIAL
Stato Treasurer 0. S. Moore is ono of
the Republican candidates for ro-electlon
on the Republican stato tickot who will
undoubtedly receive tho voio of Ivory
Republican In tho otate. If other voter
ctro'to show appreciation ot a ROouYoiri'
clal recotd, he will also rcclcvo many
vote; Irom tho other partiw. Mr.
Moore has conductod his office in a man
ner which seoma to havo disarmed
criticism, and so far as this writer's ob
servation. haB gono tho opposition can
find no fault. It tho people want stood
work on tho part of men elected to ollco
they must show that they appreciate,
for. Thoy will bodolng this in voting
Mr. Moore.
POLITICAL NOTES FROM VARIOUS
SOURCES
There is no excuso for any Republican
not voting tho straight ticket this year,
Tho Republican platform domanda tho
retention of tho Philippines, and tho'cx
elusion of Chlueso, it reaffirms allegiance
to tho principles ol protection, it recog
nizes the rights of labor to orgtnlzo and
combine tor mutual protection under
tho law and recommends that tho legis
lature enact all ntaistary legislation to
protect labor in alMti rights and privi
leges and upholds and endorses tho Mc-
Kinley-Roosevelt administration. Do
you want a chango from tho now pros
perous condition of tho county to Demo
cratic "scuttle" and disaster.
WORD OF WARNING TO REPUB-
LIOANS
Ed.tou Coast Mail;
Thotimo at which tho peoplo of Coos
County aro to decldo who shall admin-
y
later tho affairs ot tho county ia closo at
hand. Scarcely three weeks are left
and eo far nothing Booms to havo been
dono along tho line of education or cam
paign work. It it so far a kind of a
"poll Dick, pull Devil" business with
the chances favorable for the "deTll" to
get tho best end of the pull." 80 far
as I havo been able to learn, but ono or
two ot the candidates havo' been out at
work, placing before tho people thoir
claims for official recognition, and theto
have, in the main, been pursuing a llono
courio, devoted to the forwarding of
thoir personal interests, even tqthe sac
rifle, if nectssarv ot all elso. It is a
peculiar campaign. Devoid ot interest.
enthusiasm and work.
When the devil desires to capture n
man, he persuades him to sit', still and
do nothing, and wo can but liken our
democratic foes (0 the devil In this cam
paign. They are Peeking to keep tho
republicans still. They fear agitation
and prefer a still hunt whin they can
seek to eccnro tho election of a few ot the
favored ones.
But, will ono republican brothers sty
Idly by and permit this foe to thus en
dangerous success?
What ia wanted now is work,act!vo en
ergetic work work that will tell. All
kinds ol misrepretentfttlcns, falsehoods,
and schemes aro being hatched to Injure
tho republlca n success, Shall these go
unanswered? ' ,
Permit me to suggest that it Is about
time for tho ablo chairman of tho re
publican County Committ'eo to 'jJe tip

if poislblo, a llko activity on tho part ot
tho republicans of tho County.
Novor has tho republican party Intored
upon a campaign with a boltor ticket,
both steto and couuty, and nevor havo
tho chancos beon better for our success.
And wonconnot afford to sit down and
lot our opponents carry tho election,

Again arid in conclusion I say to ono

R. E, Poiitbk.
Tho Mail quite agrees with this gon
tleman that it fa timo that a little moro
life should be Infused into this county
campaign, on tho part ot tho Republi
cans. Tho lethargy of which complaint
is made socms to extend all along tho
line. Tho chairman of tho county con
tral committee, howover, has been do
ing moro work than appoars on the sur
face; ohd, further, it would bo requir
ing tho impossible to ask him to com
pel thoso most interoatod to display
more activity. Thoy will have to do
some waking up on their own account.
