Senator blackburn on the Republican
Platform


Senator Blackburn, of Kentucky, has
taken the Republican platform plank by
plank and without making any argument at
all has set professions of the party aud its
record side by side. If the parallel column
be used the main point of this analysis may
be thus shown:
Declarations of the Republican PLATFORM
1. The Democrats hold power by the suppress
sion Of the ballot. g. Opposition to foreign
contract labor and Chinese immigration.
3. Opposition 10 "all combinations of CAPT
tai, organized interests and otherwise" a.
The restoration Of public lands, for the use
of actual settlers. 3. The rehabilitation of
our merchant marine. 6. Reform of the
civil service 7. The Presidents hostility
TO pension relief,
Record of the Republican party.-1. The
party suppressed the ballots of whole States
in 1876. 2. The party never prohibited
foreign contract labor, and Harrison opposed
Chinese restriction. 3. Monopoies and
trusts are the chief legacies of the long Re-
publican regime. 4. The party robbed the
people of $50 million acres and $64,000,0
to boot. The navy declined under Republi-
can laws, and $500, 100000 was squandered
oH all luflSlblc navy. V. 4NOlnlu5 was uOnc
of value, by the Republican party. 7. More
pensions have been granted under Cleveepd
than under any other President
Continuing this sort of analysis (the whole
review of the platform Senator Blackburn
publishes in the Forum for September) he
shows in regard to the tariff the Republican
party has thrown off its mask and shows that
it never meant and never means,t to relieve the
people Of unnecessary and unjust burdens of
taxation. This analysis covers the whole
ground and contains all the material neces-
sary for campaign oratory and discussion.
