it will be counted as cast. Tn,
preservation of the Union, ant
free government are now re
corded in history as the work o
the Republican party. Union
liberty, equality, and a protect
i've tariff, have largely contrib
uted in making 6O,OO0,O00 @
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.
atian of caste ard aristocracy by
the Republican party has opened
to free men aud free labor every
acre of land within the jarisdic-
J loan of the United States, and
tenbled the toiling millions OF
the N~rth and of the South to
associate in ore 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. Ii promised
economy and retrenchmert, 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 sur t.lus
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 Understanding
debt of the country. 1t pr@m-
ised to care for and give atten-
lion to the disabled soldiers and
sailors of the late war, and has
treated with cente,nptuous veto
every pension bill against which
it could find any shadow of tech
meal objection. 1t promised to
protect the person and property |
of citizens both at home and /
abroad, and to maintain he dig !
nifty of the nation, yet in its re-
larions with Grert Britain it has
itself unwilling to give
protection to either person or !
and has permitted our
flag to be in>ul;ed, without j
proper protest, almost in sight ,
of cur shores, white by hasty and
action ii has unneceS-
sarily jeopardized our friendly
relations with the Mexican Re
public, and made oar nation
ridiculous in the eyes Of the
world Its evasion Of civil ser
vice reform, Ia which its leading
representatives afe pledged,
have been bold, insolent and
iawless. 1t has shown itself no
friend to Nevada, because,
among its first acts of admins
tratioD, it closed the u. S. Mint
in Carson City, in utter violation
Of the law, to the great det-i-
Clent Of every miner and silver
producer in this State in partic-
ular, and of the public in gem
aral. 1t has seriously impaired
our mail facilities without shad-
Dw of just excuse. 1t has out
ragged the express will of Con-
gress, and denied to this people
their rights by its unexplained
md continued refusal to execute
the law for the erection Of
Government Building in the
Capit"l Of the State. 1t has
used the entire power Of the ad-
to destroy silver as
and by ii refusal to exc
cute the law and pay out silver
Tor Government dues has kept
the metal out Of circulation, and
Dy various devices it has re-
iuced the price of silver since
The Inauguration of President
Cleveland more than Is per
cent. 1t has closed many of our
silver mines, and thrown thOus-
ands of honest laburers out of
employment.

We favor a tariff upon the i'm
ported products of low-priced ,
foreign labor SO as to protect the
