Action of the Wisconsin Republfcun
Convention.


After The Stars report of the Wisconsin
republican convention at Milwaukee yester-
day closed the convention adopted a plat
form. 1t is as follows: THE republicans OF
Wisconsin in convention assembled, renew
their devotion to the doctrine of pro-
lection. We believe in an adjustment OF
tariff duties for the two-fold purpose OF
providing sufficient revenue to meet the re-
quirements of the government and 20 fur
nish reasonable and adequate protection to
American industries, a tariff 10th for
revenue and protection.
I'VE also renew our allegiance to the doc.
trine of reciprocity. We favor, as logical
and beneficial result of protective tariff
laws mutual trade arrangements with for
e.gn countries that will provide for our
manufacturers and producers a market for
their surplus product, and at The same
time enable us to buy from them under adj
vantageous conditions such articles as
they produce and we need to purchase.
1.-The republicans of Wisconsin are I'M
yielding in their demand for honest money
We are unalteratly opposed to any scheme
that Will give TO this country a deprecated
or debased currency. We favor the use of
silver as currency, but to the extent only
and under such restrictions that its parity
with gold can be maintained"
resolution was presented and adopted
amidst tremendous applause commendins
the public services of VIM. Mckinley and
instructing the delegates from Wisconsin
to use all reasonable effort TO secure his
nomination for the presidency.
