1t IS not necessary to remind Republican:
that the standard bearer of the party in the
| coming Presidential contest will represent
law. order, equal civil rights to all, and pro-
| lection 10 the life and property OF every class
and in every part of this Union.
| That, judging the future by the past, the
glory Of the whole country rests in the keep.
ing OF the Republican party.
That Tor twenty years it has stood at the
| helm OF: the ship of state and in the might
est struggle our republic has ever expert
encedEthat ship Was not stranded.
| That 1t has always defended the weak
against the strong, the oppressed against the
oppressor, free labor against slave labor.
That the coInmunistic doctrine that the
idle and vicious shall share the earnings of
| those who labor, gather and build, finds no
defenders IN the Republican party, and the
honest dollar OF all men is made safe under
its rule.
The material for destroying society and
rendering insecure life, liberty and property
Is not found in the Republican ranks.
At no time in the past has the splendor Of
Republican victories been dimmed by the de-
struction of, or unsafety to, the rights Of IT,
dividuals and security to individuals is the
safety OF the State.
That the war Tor the Union, sustained al
most alone by the organized action OF the
Republican party, has been made the grand
est victory in the worlds history not alone
because of the results in the field, but by the
generous manner in which those engaged
against Us have been treated by the victors.'
That the financial policy of the Republican
party is o marvel to all other people and the
greatest civic achievement this nation has
ever gained.
That the payment of the honest obligations
of the nation with honest money Is but
another proof that true patriotism includes
all lesser virtues.
To those who have hitherto opposed us, We
say, the principles Of the Republican party Is
broad enough tor all good and true men, and
we invite and will welcome all such to our
ranks, and ask them to participate in our de-
alterations. For the success of the Repub-
lican party means safety, stability and peace !;
its defeat, discord and possible dissolution.
At no other time in thirty years has our
past history seemed SO brilliant. Let US add
to its glory by making the future safe.
The splendid victory which crowned our
efforts at the last election reminds us that our
State has already given its promise to assist
the Republican party in winning national
victory.
Let us renew that promise at Chicago, in
the interest of good government, and pre-
pare at once to redeem it on the day of cleo
ton.
1t is impossible at this moment to foretell
what strange devices may be resorted to by
our enemy to defeat the will of the people in
the event of a close vote. We know what
it has attempted in Maine, and what it is
now doing in Congress in anticipation of such
possibility The most successful and salts
factory method of forestalling such proceed
ings is to secure for the Republican party an
overwhelming victory at the polls
To attain this result the State Central
Committee urges upon Republicans through
out the State to adopt such measures Us will
in the most satisfactory manner reach q
thorough and perfect organization of the
party.
Let each and every member of the party
consider himself a leader in the coming con-
test, and remember that perhaps upon his
individual efforts rest the success and progress
OF the party and the welfare Of the country.
