THE PRORIBITION PLATFORM. Tt Declares For Woman Suffrage and Against the Lignor Traffio. A WOMAN FOR DISTRICT JUDGE. Bhe Lives In Lincoln and Her Name s Mrs. Bittenbender—The. Other Nominees—Capital Oity Brevities. [FROM TIIE DEE'S LINCOLN BUREAU. | The state prohibition convention re- sumed work yesterday morning after an evening passed in song and sobriety. There were no evidences of late private cnucuses, deals in futures, schemes fixed and slates broken as a result of an even- ing's work, when the convention assem- bled and there was o aroma of an oil room upon their garments. However, it the party continues to grow and talks in future as much about railroads as the convention did yesterday, Messrs Hol- drige and Kimball and their immidiate * lieutenants will undoubtediy find an oil room for their edefication, a necessity. In the procecdings erday there were manifest lines of difference that at times were closcly drawn. Heretofore a prohi- bition convention has been unanimous in declaring the liquor question the only one und have it, coupled with resolu- tions beshrewing the republiesn party, their party platform. A new element_ is in their convention this year, an anti- monopoly element, that on the question of the control of railroads, past railroad legislation and the question of elect- ing United States senators from the cople, came near exercising & control- ing voice in the deliberations, A little family quarrel progressed for a season over the report of the committee on lit- erature. This_committee report was all for the past cfficial organ, the New Re- public, and ffiends of a half dozen other prohibition papers in the state desired theirs recognized as well. B. F. Hilton made & running fight to have the Urd Blizzard added to the list and endorsed, but the New Republic contingent was too well organized, and the convention refused to endorse the storm cloud 1n the northwest. At the morning session the following business was trunsacted and adopted. THE PLATFORM. 2 1. The prohibitionists of Nebraska knowledee Almighty God as the rightful sov- relgn of all men, 2. Constitutional and statutory prohib- ftion in state and nation, of the manufacture, importation and sale of alcoholic liquors, is the most vital issue before the American people. 3. License of the liquor traftic, high ur low, 12 public hrlber{ and a political crime of un- equaled enormity. 4. We denounce the policy of the general government, which through its Internal reve- nue de‘unmem ignores local and state law by Issuing federal permits to illicit liquor sel- iers, thus making the nation a conspirator against the Iaws of the people and a partner |nutlm crimes growing out of this apalling evil. 6. We demand the repeal ot the -law which permits foreigners to vote at state and mn- Dicipal elections before they are naturalized citizens of the United States. 6. We are in favor of granting pensions to all disabled union soldiers,sailors and ma- rines of the late clvil war who are dependent upon their own Iabor for support, without n;llu‘lrlng auything but the proot of such dis- ability. 7. KEvery Americon citizen of e and sound mind should be entitled to equal rights and privile.es before the law, without regard to sex, race or color. 8, We aro in favor of government control of railroads and telegraph. 9, We indict the republican party of Ne- braska on the charze of defeating the sub- mission of a prohibitory amendment in our Iast legislatury, at the expense of repudiating 1ts own pledges. 10. We arraign the democratic party of Ne- braska on the charge of disloyalty to the prineciples of free government in denying by platform utterance and legisiative vote the right of the people to say whether or not the llqulnr traflic shall be outlawed in state and nation, 10. We invite the 'orklng‘monu Nebraska !a'.‘oln the prohibition party in 1ts crusade ogainst all enemies of honest labor. THE COMMITTEE ON LITERATURE reported that thoy favored and fully en- dorsed the management and work of the state organ, the New Republic, and rec- ommended that it be put in the hands of every prohibitionist in Nebraska as speedily as possible. It was recom- mended that the New Republic be made a daily as speedily as possible. The com- mittee noted with pleasure the number of new local prohibition pavers started in the state, and mentioned especially the Falkest Vow, the only prohibition paper published in-a foreign tongue in the state.
