The roll Gail WAS then proceeded with
amid visibly suppressed excitement.
While the tellers we're figuring up the
result, Chairman John d. Lawson, from
the committee on resolutions, read the
platform. 1t declares the party's faith in
Republican suooess It's satisfaction with
the honest, frugal and intelligent govern
mental expenditures its approval OF
that policy Of protecting home industry
from foreign competition which has
through century Of national being en-
courAged immigration, rewarded labor,
fostered enterprise and assured un-
paralleled progress and prosperity, all
variations from which policy have been
the occasion Of business confusion and
disaster, and which therefore is alike
justified in INTEL genoe and by expe-
rienoe its determination to improve the
service of the government its purpose
to maintain equal civil rights and to favor
equal and just distribution Of taxation

all unjust restrictions on American
shipping interests and the establishment
OF our navy on modern footing its ad-
hsrenoe to sound fusnoial policy, which
dictates the immediate Suspension Of the
coinage Of the standard silver dollar, the
retirement OF the trads dollar and the
infexible adjustment Of the currency to
the single standard Of gold ; its protec.
tion against that policy in Congress
which, In the weakness and imbeoility of
the Democratic majority OF the House Of
representatives, has disturbed the
smooth and satisfactory courses OF bust
ness and material affairs that had been
established under Republican auspices,
and that by ili-advised and insxeusabls
assaults upon wisely matured and advan.
tsgeous Legislation has brought the busi-
ness aud the industries Of the country to
the verge Of uncertainty aud distrust.
The reference to Arthur WAS in these

Arthur, whose administration, begun under
circumstances OF peculiar Sadness delicacy
and embarrassment, has by its eminent
prudence and sagacity commended itself to
the esteem OF the country, and as such re-
eeives the cordial acknowledgements OF the
Republicans OF his own state.
When the reference to President
Arthur was read there was loud aud
long continued applause, and in response
to a call for three ohesrs by en- enthusi-
astic delegate, they were given with
will and tiger.
The tellrs then announced the result
Of the ballot for deleS stss at large as fol-
