Republican Platform Tariff Revision and Honest Elections
A 1900s platform outlines protectionist tariff support, Dingley tariff praise, and calls for revision by pro protection advocates. It champions honest ballots, bipartisan county election commissions, equal party representation at polls, and strict anti graft aims. It also supports public education expansion, technical and normal schools, and University of Tennessee emphasis. It honors Union veterans and Civil War Confederate reconciliation, condemns partisan gerrymandering, and opposes race track gambling and back assessments. It pledges labor support and employer liability, urging broad enforcement of fair taxation and state laws.
