preservation of the Union, anC
free government are now re-
corded in history as the work o
the Republican party. Union
liberty, equality, and IA protect
i've tariff, have largely contrib
uted in making 6O,OOO,00O oi
people the best fed. the best
clothed, the happiest, the most
intelligent and powerful that
ever existed on earth. 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 jurisdic-
loan of the United States, and
tcnbled the toiling millions OF
! The NSrth 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 arraian the Democratic
administration Of President
Cleveland for having failed to
keep the pledges on which it
came into power. Ii promised
economy and retrenchment, and
has been nost eXtravagant in
expenditures and appropriations,
which. for the current year,
largely exceed the abundant
revenues of the Government. Ii
promised to reduce the sur. lus
in the Treasury, has permitted
such surplus To lie idle and ac
cumulate 20 The injury Of the
business Of the country, and has
refused to approve of the action
of a large minority of both
Houses of Congress directing
that such surplus lie applied in
payment Of the Understanding
debt of the country. 1t prom
ised To care for and give atten-
iion to the disabled soldiers and
sailors of the late war, and has
treated with cantemptuous veto
every pension bin against which
it could find any shadow of tech
nicaI 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-
lations with Grert Britain il has |
shown itself unwilling To give /
protection to either person or /
property, and has permitted our /
flag 10 be in~ulted, without .
proper protest, almost III sight .
of our shores, white by has;y and ,
action it has unneces-
sariiy jecpard:22d our friendly
relations with the Mexican Re
public, and made our nation
in the eyes Of the
world It's evasion of civil ser
vice reform, to which its leading
representatives are pledged,
have been bold, insolent and
laWiess. 1t has shown itself no
friend to Nevada, because,
among its first acts of admins
tratiou, ii closed the L. :. Mint
in Carson City, i'll utter violation
Df the law, to the great detri-
Elent OF every miner and silver
producer in this State in partie-
nlar, and of the public in gen
eral. 1t has seriously impaired
lur null facilities without shad-
Jw OF just excuse. 1t has out
ragged the express will of Con-
yress, and denied to this people
their rights by its unexplained
md continued refusal to execute
the law for the erection OF a
Building in the
rapit'l of the State. 1t has
Ised the entire power of the ad-
to destroy silver as
and by ii refusal to exc
ute the law and pay out silver
or Government dues has kept
he metal out of circulation, and
W various devices it has re-
luced the price of silver since
he inauguration of President :
cleveland more than Is per
.ent. 1t has closed many Of our
liver mines, and thrown thous-
,nds OF honest laborers out of

We favor tariff upon the i'm

interests of American wage
