‘The Flntform,
‘The: following platform
adopted:
We, the delegates. of the Liberal-
Congervative party of Yale-Cariboo

city, - Everything at Half,

constituency.in convention assem-
bled, re-affirm the principles of the
old .party, and more particularly
that inal principte,- pr i
to home industries,. and that that
principle be carried out so that all
sections of the country shall equally
share its benefits.

The.one industry on -which the
prosperity of this constituency is
almost wholly dependent is - mining;
and we believe that our mining in-
dustries are as fairly entitled to
protection as the gine
terests of Eastern Canada; therefore,
we advocate that the duties oh lead
and.lead products.be increased, so
that they shall be as::high as those

‘now imposed by the United -,Sigtes |
on the same articles,

That the output of the precious
metal mines of Canada, is largely
increasing, therefore we favor the
establishment of a mint, so that the
specie in circulation shall be that of
our own instead of that of a foreign
country. *

We advoca‘e the restriction of
the immigration of Chinese... and
Japanese and all classes of people
who cannot become good citizens of
the-Dominion of Canada, and sug-

gest the adoption of the principles
of the Natal act,

British Columbia has not now
the. representation’ in the federal
parliament that she is entitled to;
therefore we advocate. that when
the redistribution of seats is made
that this constituency shall be given
representation according to its pop-
ulation.

That it augurs well for the suc-
cess of the party that Hugh John
Macdonald has decided to leave the
field of provincial politics to take
part in the larger one that affects
the people of the whole ot Canada.

It is also provided that every presi-
