4 Protective Tariff.

We renew and emphasize our allegi-
Rnce to the policy of protection as the
bulwark ol American industrial inde-
pendence and the foundation OF Amer
lean development and prosperity. This
true American policy taxes foreign pro-
ducts and encourages home industry.
II puts the burden OF revenue on for
elgn goods. II secures the American
market for the American producer: II
upholds the American standard OF
wages FOR the American worklngmAn:
II puts the factory by the side OF the
farm. and makes the American farmer
less dependent on foreign demand and
price; II diffuSes general thrift and
POUNDS the strength OF all on the
strength OF each. In It's reasonable ap-
plication II Is just, fair. and impartial.
equally opposed to foreign control and
domestic monopoly. TO sectional dis
and individual favoritism.
We denounce the present Democratic
tariff as sectional. injurious TO the pub
lie credit and destructive to business
enterprise. We demand such equitable
tarir on foreign imports which come
into competition with American pro-
ducts as will not only furnish adequate
revenue for the necessary expenses OF
the government. hut will protect Amer
lean labor from degradation to the
wage level Of other lands We are not
pledged to any particular schedules.
The question Of rates Is a practical
question. TO be governed By the condl-
tlons OF the time and production; the
ruling and uncompromislng principle
is the protection and development OF
American labor and industry. The
country demands a right settlement
and then It wants rest.

Rights of Women.

The Republican party Is mindful OF
the rights and interests OF women, Pro-
lection ot American industries includes
equal opportunities. equal pay for equal
work and protection to the home. We
favor the admission of women to wider
spheres Of Ausefulncas, ana welcome
their cooperation In resculng the coun-
try from DsmocrpljC and Ropulist mis-
management and mlsrule Such are the
principles and policies OF the Republl.
can party. BY these principles we will
abide and these principles we win put
into execution. We ask for them the
oonslderatc judgment OF the American
people
Confident alike In the history OF our
great party and in the justice of our
cause. we present our platform and our
considerations, in the full assurance
that the election will bring victory IN
the Republican party and prosperity to
the people OF the United States.
The daily morning Astorian. [volume] (Astoria, Oregon) 1883-1899, 1896-07-04
Reciprocity With Other Nations.

We believe the repeal of the reel
procIty arrangements negotiated by the
last Republican administration was "A
national calamity. and We demand
their renewal and extension on such
terms as win equalize our trade with
other nations, remove the restrictions
which now obstruct the sale Of Amer
lean products in the ports Of other
countries and secure the enlarged mar
kets OF our farms. forests and factories.
Protection and reciprocity are twin
measures OF Republican policy, and go
hand in hand. Democratic rule has
reckessly struck down both, and both
must be re-establIshcd. Protection for
what we produce, free admission for
the necessaries Of life which we don't
produce. reciprocal agreements Of mu-
tual interest which gain open markets
for US in return for our open market TO
others. Protection builds up domestic
industry and trade and secures our
own market for ourselves. Reciprocity
builds up foreign trade and finds an
outlet for our surplus.

Independence of Cuba.

From the hour OF achieving their own
Independence the people OF the, United
States have regarded With sympathy
the struggles Of other American peoples
to free themselves from European dom
ination. We watch with deep and abid,
ing interest the heroic battle OF the Gu
ban patriots against cruelty and op-
preston, and our best hopes go out for
the full success OF their determined con-
test for liberty.
The government OF Spain, having lost
control Of Cuba and being unable TO
protect the property or lives Of resi-
dent American citizens or to comply
with It's treaty obllgationes. we believe
that the government OF the United
States should actively use It's influence
and good offices TO restore peace and
give independence to the island.

THEY CATCH AT A STRAW.


It is apparent that one thing only
will save the hard-money Democrats
from annihilation in the Chicago con-
vention, and that is the two-thirds rule
II that is adhered TO they realize that
they have a fighting chance. but from
the threats Of the free silyerites such
an opportunity will not be granted, as
the white metal advocates do not in

to pass by. The gold standard men

are grasping a rope Of sand should they
hope to climb TO victory in this man

rogate this rule. and only the finest
diplomacy can succeed in steering clear
Of this chasm.
A very interesting account Of the
history of the two-thirds rule, which
may prove to be the turning point Of
the Democratic convention, has been
published It is a political legacy Of
the Baltimore convention Of 1914. In
the election Of that year there were
twenty-six states, and thirteen Of these
were in the South. The Southern states
