THE REPUBLICAN PLATFORM.
ADOPTED AT RALEIGH JULY
7 th. .;.-j
Thp Hon. R. C. Badger, chairman oi
the Committee on Platform and Reso
lutions, reported from that committee
the following : j
Tne Republicans of North Carolina,'
in Convention assembled, renew the
pledges made in all their formerj plat
forms. . And they declare as follows :
1. That they ' cordially approTb the
nominations, recently mado at Chicago,
of James A. Garfield for President, and
Chester A. Arthur for Vice-President ;
and that they will most cheerfully and
actively devote themselves to their elec
tion, as indispensable to4be preserva
tion of the Republican p Jirty xind of
the Republican its integrity. And that
they fully endorse the principles set
forth in the platform, adopted by the
Republican convention which conven
ed in the city of Chicago, on tho 2nd
day of June 18S0.
2. That they have seen,. with ''great
apprehension and alarm, tho rapid con
solidation and engrossment of bur rail
road systems, by and under the control
and ownership of foreign monopolists
that such consolidation of capital gives
power to the monopolists to oppress the
and UD:ust 16cal tar;ff3 aad fare3, flnd
gives to them the, power to control the
legislative branch of government, in the
passage of laws in "theiri interest, and
ruinous to those of the people ; and that
they have seen with regret, that these
monopolists are making an insidious
invasion among th ej leaders of the Dem
ocratic party, whiclji culminated on the
17th day of Jiinc, in the engulfing and
swallowing up of the whole Democratic
State convention ; and that while they
have no desire or intention to make an
unjust war upon these monopolies, they
do demand that the Legislature shall
pass laws to govern and control them,
so that they shall not be permitted to
discriminate against our own people,
and place a reasonable limit on local
tanlls and fares. .
3. That thev view with anxietv the
condition of the Western North Caroli-
I " T-fc 1 1 1 - 1 ' j 1 -
na itanroaci, wmcu, tnrougn tne not
haste and ill considered contracts ot the
Democratic state administration, is sur
rounded by legal troubles which afford
no relief from taxation, and threaten to
delay lor a long time, if not altogether
defeat, the completion of that work so
necessary for the .welfare Land develop-menkof-the
state, and ' especially the
western -ecu ntiesi . , . '-
4. That the Republican party has al-
1 t ' x j
ways been, the friend o education, and
now again renews its pledge to the peo-
.pie. ot Aorth Garohoa to continue its
etiorts with mcreastd vigor, until there
shall bfi a comnlete and perfect svstm
of public instruction, -
inat tney recogniza the mecbamc
and laborer as the bone aid sinew of
the land, and pledge themselves to pro-
tect their rights and promote their po-
T.. 1 j 0 . . 1 r , : t 1 . '
htical, educational, and material inter-
CStS. i , .1
6. That the recent constitutional
amendments were passed by a conven,
tion which was not composed of a ma-
jority of elected delegates, and the con
trol ot which was stolen irom the Re
publican majority, by au infamous and
admitted iraud.ou the voters of Robe
son county. This corruption, on the
fact that their-party will scruple at no
