it will be counted as cast. Tn
preservation of the Union, ant
free government are now re
corded in history as the work .
the Republican party. Union
liberty, equality, and q protect
i've tariff, have largely contrib
uted in making 60,000,Oo0 o
people the best fed, the bes
clothed, the happiest, the mos
intelligent and powerful thaj
| ever existed on enrth. The ele'
walton Of labor by the abolition
Of slavery and the utter repudi.
atien of caste and aristocracy by
the Republican party has opened
to free men and free labor every
acre Of land within the iurisdic-
loan of the United States, and
tenbled the toiling millions Of
the N-rth and of the South to
associate in enc common BROTH
erhood for the protection OF
their rights and the advance
ment of their Intellectual and
material prosperity.
II.
We arraign the Democratic
administration of President
Cleveland for having failed to
keep the pledges on which it
came into power. 1t promised
economy and retrenchment, and
has been most extravagant in
expenditures and appropriations,
which. for the current year,
largely exceed the abundant
revenues of the Government. 1t
promised to reduce the surplus
in the Treasury, has permitted
such surplus to lie idle and ac-
cumulate to the Injury Of the
business of the country, and has
refused to approve Of the action
of large majority Of both
Houses OF Congress directing
that such surplus be applied in
payment of the interest-bearing
debt Of the country. 1t prom
ised to care for and give atten-
lien to the disabled soldiers and
sailors Of the late war, and has
treated with contemptueus veto
every pension bill against which
it could 6nd any shadow Of tech
nical objection. 1t promised to
protect the person and property
of citizens both at home and
and to maintain he dig
nifty of the nation, yet in its re-
latiens with Grert Britain it has
shown itself unwilling to give
protection to either person or
property, and has permitted our
dag to be insulted, without
proper protest, almost in sight
Of our shores, while by hasty and
action it has unneces-
sarily jeopardized our friendly
relations with the Mexican Re-
public, and made our nation
ridiculous in the eyes of the
world. Its evasion of civil SER
vice reform, to which its leading
representatives are pledged,
nave been bold, insolent and
awless. 1t has shown itself no
friend to Nevada, because,
among its first acts of admins
ration, it closed the U. S. Mint
IN Carson City, ia utter violation
If the law, to the great detri-
clent Of every miner and silver
producer in this State in partic-
llar, and of the public in gen
.raI. 1t has seriously impaired
,ur mail facilities without shad-
Nv of just excuse. It has out
aged the express will Of Con-
yress, and denied to this people
heir rights by its unexplained
md continued refusal to execute
he law for the erection Of
Government Building in the
Of the State. 1t has
lsed the entire power Of the ad-
to destroy silver as
money, end by a refusal to exc
ute the law and pay out silver
or Government dues has kept
he metal out Of circulation, and
~ various devices it has re-
luced the price Of silver since
he Inauguration Of President
more than Is per
.ent. 1t has closed many Of our !
silver mines, and thrown thous-
.nds of honest laborers out Of
We favor tariff upon the i'm
ported products of low-priced
nreign labor so as to protect the
interests Of American wage
