preservation of the Union, ant
free government are now re
corded in history IS the work 0
the Republican party. Union
liberty, equality, and protect
i've tariff, have largely contrib
uted in making 60,000,000 o
people the best fed, the bes
clothed, the happiest, the mos
intelligent and powerful thai
ever existed on earth. The ele.
walton Of labor by the abolition
of slavery and the utter repudi-
alton of caste and aristocracy by
the Republican party has opened
to free men and free labor every
acre of land within tie jurisdic-
loan of the United States, and
tenbled the toiling millions of
the N~rth and of the South to
associate in one common broth
erhood fer 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 o.: which it
came into power. Il promised
economy aad retrenchment, and
has been most e1iravagant il
expenditures and appropriations,
which. for the current year,
largely exceed the abundant
revenues of the Government. 1t
promised to reduce the sur, i,s
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 n large majority of both !
Houses of Congress directing |
that such surplus be applied in
payment of the interest-bearing
debt of the country. It prem
ised to care for and give atten-
tioa To the disabled soldiers and
sailors of the late war, and has
treated with contemptueus veto
every pension bill against which
it could find any shadow Of tech
nical objection. 1t promised 10
protect the person and property
uf citizens both at home and
abroad, and to maintain he dig
nifty of the nation, yet in its re-
Iations with Crert Britain it has
shown itself unwilling to give
protection 20 either person or
and has permitted our
dag to be inSulted, without
proper protest, almost in sight
II cur shores, while by hasty and
lnseeElly action it has unneces-
'arily jeoparG!iZed our friendly
relations with the Mexican Re
public, and made our nation
'idiculous in the eyes OF the
world. It's evasion of civil ser
vice reform, to which its leading
representatives are pledged, I
nave been bold, insoient and .
awiess. It has shown itself no

aged the express will of Con-
.rcss, and denied 10 this people
heir rights by its unexplained
nd continued refusal to execute 5
