The Republican party, having its birth in
hatred of slave labor, and in the desire that all
men may be free and equal,is unalterably Op-
posed to placing our wOrkingmen in cOmpeti-
ton with any form of servile labor, whether
at home or abroad. In this spirit we denounce
the importation of contract labor, whether
from Europe or Asia, as an Offense against the
spirit of American institutions, and we pledge
ourselves to sustain the present law restricting
Chinese immigration, and provide such fur
ther legislation as is necessary to carry out its
purpose. The reform of the civil service, aus
piciously begun under Republican admins-
tration. should be completed by further
extension of the reform system already estab-
lished by law to all grades of the service to
which it is applicable. The spirit and pur-
pose of reform should be observed in all execu-
tive appointments and all laws at variance
with the objects of the existing reform legis-
lation should be repealed to the end that the
dangers to free institutions which lurk in the
power of official patronage may be wisely and
effectively avoided.

PUBLIC LANps ANp PENs1oNs.

The public lands are the heritage of the
people of the United States, and should be
reserved as far as possible for small holdings
bv actual settlers. We are opposed to the
ACQUISITION of large tracts of these lands by
CORPORATIONS or individuals, and especially
where such holdings are in the hands Of non
resident aliens and we will endeavor to obtain
such legislation as will tend. to correct this
evil. We demand OF Congress the speedy for
feiture of all land grants which have lapsed
bv reason of compliance with the acts of
incorporation in all cases where there has
been no attempt in good faith to perform the
conditions of such grants. The grateful
thanks of the American people are due to the
Republican soldiers and sailors of the late
war, and the Republican party stands pledged
to suitable pensions for all who are disabled,
and for the widows and orphans of those who
died in the war. The Republican party also
pledges itself to the repeal of the limitation
Contained in the arrears act of 1879, so that
ali invalid soldiers shall share alike. Their
pensions shall begin with the date of disabil-
itv or discharge, and not with the date of ap-
DlicatiOn.
