FOR SCHOOL TREASURER
E. M. M'INTYRE.
The foregoing ticket was placed in
nomination at the well attended mass
convention of the labor party held at
Ea^'le&'hall last night. Every nomina
tion was made by acc'anation and the
convention completed its labors in a;
few minutes.
In addition to nominating a ticket,
the convent ion adopted a platform in
which the most significant planks
demanded, by inference at least, that
certain corporations should psy more
taxes, and pronounced against
importing voters. The platform
also contained a ringing declaration in
favor of territorial government and an
endorsement of con-sectarian schools.
Dr. J. P. Braward was chairman of
I the convention and S. F. Cottrell, seo
I retarv. The contention waa character
ized throughout by the upmost good!
humor and perfect harmony.
Lmbor Pmrty Platform
J. B. Hart, J. J. Kennedy and S. F.
Cottrell were ?ppoio'ed a committee
on resolutions an-J platform. Their
repoit was adopteJ without dlssention
or amendment. It *?i as ijllowg:
'?We be ieve in equal taxation. The
burden of supporting the munio
ipality should not be saddled on resi
dents of moderate means, but should be
borne equally in proportion to tbe
actual value of the property belonging
to tbe taxpayers. Overtaxing humble
holdings that holdings of great value
may be undertaxed is unfair and repre
hensible.
"We believe in a fair ballot sod a
fair count, and we want regi<trati3n to
tbe end that tbe importation of voters
cease Though we do not anticipate
any Importation of voters at this
election because such a measure would
in this instance insure the carrying of
out ticket, we want registration that
the unfair methods of the past be not
perpetrated in the future.
"We believe in the maxim of 'Live
and Let Live.'
"We believe in non-sectarian school;
proper hoars for study and proper seas
ons for school.
"We ardently indorse Territorial
Government and pledge oumlves to
vote only for candidates who are favor
able to home rule."
It is said that aeveral of tbose-on the
ticke ticket will wi'hdraw before
the election. In fact, m?re than half
o t those carted for counclmen were at
the ci'ixens' caucus, held later ?cu
participated in its de iberat.ots.
