! preservation OF the Union, an
free government are now re
corded in history as the work I
the Republican party. Union
liberty, equality, and protect
i've tariff, have largely contrib
uted in making G0,000,00O o
people the best fed. the bes
clothed, the happiest, the mos
intelligent and powerful tha
ever existed on earth. The ele
vation Of labor by the abolition
of slavery and the utter repudi
alton Of caste ard arist1cracy bS
the Republican party has opened
TO free men and free labor every
acre Of land within the iurisdic-
loan of the United States, and
teabled the tGiling millions OF
the E~rth and of the South to
associate in one common broth
crhood for the protection Of
their rights ard the advance
nent Of their intellectual and
material prosperity.
II.
We arraign the Democratic
administration af 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 a large majarity Of both
Houses OF Congress directing
that such surplus he applied in
of the Understanding
debt Of the country. 1t prom
i,ed to care for ana give atten-
tion to the disabled soldiers and |
:ailCrs of the late war, and has
treated with c0ntenptuous veto f,
every pension bin against which !
il c0uid find any shadow ot tech /,
nicai objection. 1t promised to |
protect the person and properly |
pf citizens both at home ana |
abroad, and to maintain he dig
iily 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 pernitted our
aag 10 be insuitcd, without
proper protest, almost IN sight
Df cur shores, white by hasty and
action it has unneces-
sarily je0pardiZed our friendly
with the Mexican Re
public, and made cur nation
ridiculous in the eyes of the
world rs evasion of civil ser
vice reform, to which its leading
representatives are pledged,
ave been bold, insolent and
awless. 1t has shown itself no
.riend to Nevada, because,
,asung its first acts Of admins
ration, it closed the U. s. Mint
n Carson City, in utter violation
'f the law, TO the great detri-
:lent of every miner and silver
PRODUCER in this State in partic-
liar, and Of the public in gen.
,rai. 1t has seriously impaired

w O! just excuse. Ii has out
