coming Platform

CHICaCO, June 19th-In Convt rsation with
members of the Platform Committee tonight it
is learned that the platform will demand ade-
quate appropriations for the rebuilding OF the
American navy, for the construction of proper
coast deienses and modern ordnance. 1t will
demand that our defeneeless harbors be pro
tected, and that the shipping interests of the
Pacific coast be given encouragement. 1t will
dec are that such pOiicv would gi employ
ment to labor, encourage home industries and
reduce the enormous surplus which has ac-
cumulated in the public Treasury during the
maladministration of the Democratic party
The platform viii express sympathy with the
irish ana the hope that they may obtain home
rule. 1t win oppose all trusts and the employ
ment of convict labor where it competes with
honest labor and free wages.
A resolution on the Chinese question will be
| adopted which win demand the rigid enforce
meDt OF the present laws against the mporta-
ton of Chinese labor in the United states, and
will recommend the enactment of such further
legislation as may be necessary TO accomplish
strong terms, and declare against the introduc-
tion OF foreign contract labor, pauper labor
coolie labor, and all Asiatic labor.
The action of President Cleveland in vetoing
the pension bills, and the action OF the Demo-
cratic House in regard to pension legislation
will be denounced.
The platform will also denounce President
cleveland fr MS violation OF all h civil serY-
ice pledges, AID will charge that he has used all
the machinery and patronage at his command
TO secure his denomination.
The conduct OF the Department of State under
Democratic rule, will also be arIaigned and
charged with cowardce. The action Of this
Administration, in allowing an extension of
foreign influence in Central America i'll direct
opposition TO the Monroe doctrine, is also de
nounced
special plank viii be devoted to an arraign-
ment OF the policy pursued by the Department
OF state in connection with the fisheries plank
The demand for protective tariff and the thor
ough protection Of all home ind stries will be
one OF the IL ain features of the platform.
There is entire unanimity of opinion in the
committee on this subject.

SOBER SECOND THOUGHT.
The Californians Bottling Up Their
Blaine Fire for Future Use

CHICAGO, June 19th.-While the men from the
Pacific slope still indulge in lusty ami constant
cheers for the man who dwells aeross the entire
continent from them, they are not quite so sure
that it is best to work for him from the begin
ming. The labOrs of the Eastern Blaine mis-
sionaries do not appear to have been fruitless
There is no longer that oulspoken declaration
that the coast would know nobody EXCEPT
Blaine from first to last.

the magnifeence, development and grand
achievements of the nation which are crystal
hzed as unnatural and unwholesome growth,
and believe we ought to go back to the days of
Ignorance, sloth and small things as quickly as
possible.
Through the criminal folly of cert qin
professed Republicans, and by fraud and du-
plicity on the part of the Democratic party, our
honored and gallant standard-bearers in 1884
were defeated. Fortunately for the country we
will have the benefit of the wise laws passed by
the Republican party, and still have majority
in the Senate Of the United States, which ma
jority has prevented unwise legislation. We
are again confronted with
THE SAME DEMOCRATIC PARTY,
Themotheroi OF all evil fromwhich this country has
suffered, asking for power to control and direct
the future urse, and we find the same element
which first led it astray by alignant influence
and dominated it down to the grievous days of
the rebellion, again in full control of its affairs
If the majority of American voters favor the
giving away of the home market ineomparably
the best in the world, and the forcing of our
people, now the most prosperous and happy on
the face of the earth, INTO competition with and
down to a level with the cheapest poorest and
most miserable of our foreign rival, Democratic
reactionary doctrines will prevail
If the Republican party will resume the
authority and successfully lead this great cJun-
try with its benefcent Institutions toward that
sublime gaol, which all patriots believe its
heaven rdained destiny, I have no doubt OF

eminently fair ones and the committee selected

Chairman.
The temporary Secretary, Reading Clerks

addition of Lynch of Pennsylvania as an ad-

California fought hard for the temporary

The Californians are consequently in high

CHAIRMAN JONES.
Address of the National Committee Chair
man Calling the Body to Order.

Upon the conclusion of the reading of the
call, Chairman Jones stepped to the front of the
platform and spoke as follows: THE Republi-
can party may well be congratulated through
its representatives here assembled upon the
auspicious prospects that are before 1t. The
will and courageous acts of this Convention
will surely lead it 10 victory in the campaign
which is about to begin. There can be no doubt
as to which side the great majority of votes will
fall, if each party be judged by its record--if
the grand achievements of the Republican
party be appreciated and the utter failure of the
Democratic party be understood. The two par
ties are dramatically opposed to each other
One favors progression, the other retrogression
one lifts up, the other pulls down. Thanks to
Cleveland and his Southern allies, the Demo
craic party has thrown off the disguise in
which it has heretofore fought its battles in the
Northern States and boldly decla ed for British
free trade and against American projection.
The avowal has caused much adulation in GER
tain sectio of this country and all England
which has from the beginning been hostile to
the industrial progress Of the United States but
it has fallen heavily upon the patriotic portion
of the Democratic party. However, we must
not expect that there is an end of dishonest
preteuseS.

fore, we should have platform based uron
true Republican principles, free from equivoca-
tion or ambiguity, and should nominate candi-
dstes who are the embodiment of these prin-
ciples.
The founders of the Government saw that it
was absolutely essential for selfpreservation
that the original thirteen States should become
united for the purpose of protection and defense
against alien acts and influences, as well as
for economic and effective government One of
the first acts of the general Government was TO
provide for revenue and for the protection of
the industrial interests of the country. All our
early Presidents from Washington to Jackson
inclusive. advocated a tariff for revenue and
statesmen OF those days coiucided in this pol
icy. No man of note, who was a lover of his
country, down to Jacksons first term, enter-
tAlned and expressed doubts as to the constitu-
tionality or policy of protecting the industries
OF the United States against foreign competi-

under the Administration of Van Buren, Polk
Pierce and Buchanan. Chairman Jones con-
tinued:
The Republican party vanquished the Demo

stroyed slavery elevated the .mudsills,' re-
stored credit, redeemed the country and started
it anew on the lines contemplated by the
