NUMBER 12
Prohibition Platform.
The following was adopted as
the platform of the prohibition
'- nuiu v. tllU Ul VilllUUU
' ... Txr .
source of crime poverty degra-
dation and political corruption
and should not be legalized and
i -- .
protected by anv form of license.
but should be absolutely prohib
ited by law ; and as laws are made
only through the political party
controlling the government there-
fore legal prohibition can be se-
cured only through political party-
action and wo pledge ourselves to
such action.
2. Since tho democratic and re-
publican parties both favor license
and oppose prohibition it follows
that the only hope of destroying
the liquor traffic lies in the prohi-
bition party.
o. Tho responsibility of the con-
tinuance of the liquor traffic rests
with thoge who remain in the old
parties and their votes and in-
fluence sustain that evil. All par-
ties which license tho drink evil
or legislators who enact license
laws and all citizens who vote for
parties that favor licenso thereby
becomo partakers iu the crime of
drunkard-making and share the
guilt of the man who sells the li-
quor. 4. We are opposed to reform
either for revenue or protection
and favor absolute free trade be-
lieving tho revenue ueoded for
the support of tho gOTernment
should be raised by means of a
graduated iucomo tax.
5. Money should be of gold sil-
ver and paper all full legal tender;
adequate in volumo to meet the
demands of bnsiness issued di-
rectly to the people by the govern-
ment without the intervention of
individuals or private corpora
tions.
G The railroada telegraph lines
and all other means of transpor-
tation and communication which
owe their existence to grant of
power from the state should be
controlled by the state and no
higher charges allowed than may
be necessary to afford a reasona-
ble profit on capital actually in-
vested. 7. Tho privilege of suffrage
should be determined by stand-
ards of character and intelligence
and no foreigner should be allow-
ed to vote who has not resided in
the United States over ten years.
The increaso of povertj' the cen-
tralization of wealth tho oppres-
sion of the poor tho reduction of
wages the depression of our agri-
culturo and other industries and
the prevalence of ''hard times' re-
sult mainly from the liquor traffic-
class legislation unjust tax des-
potic combinations dishonest pec-
ulations a false system of finan-
ciering and unrestricted immigra-
tion and tho prohibition party
pledges itself to remedy all these
evils by suitable legislation if elec-
ted to power.
S. Immigration laws prohibiting
the introduction into this country
j of paupers and criminals should
be rigidly enforced.
0. Speculations in margins the
"cornering" of money grain and
other products and the formation
of trusts and combinations for the
arbitrary advancement of prices
should be prohibited.
10. The president vico-presi-
deut and senators of the United
States should be elected by a di
rect vote of the people.
11. All official fees should be
paid into the public treasuries and
all officials state county and mu-
nicipal paid reasonable salaries.
12. Non-resident alien and for-
e:n comorations should not be
aUowed to acquire land in the
ltate except by foreclosure of
mortrat?es or other Hen and in
8Uch ca8e8 they 8Dall bo allowed
.; ... a:
i ! i u5i.--a
iQTWi aii nn)lirnA(i
land all unearned grants of land
to railroad companies and other
corporations shonid be reclaimed
and no further portion of the pub-
lic domain should be thus granted.
13. We oppose the system of
leagi gtate convicts and demand
tenance.
