Civil Service Reform.
.rhe nledge of the Republican National
| convention that our civil service laws
| shall be sustained and Thoroughly anu
honestly enforced, and extended wherever
nracticab]e' is in keeping with the posi-
tion Of the party for the past twenty -four
wears, and will be faithfully observed. Our
| onnonents decry the reforms. They ap-
pear willing to abandon all the auvantages
gained, after so many years agitation ana
| effort. They encourage return 10
| methods of party favoritism which both
parties have often denounced, that ex-
perience has condemned, and that the
| neople repeatedly disapproved. The he
| nublican party earnestly opposes this re-,
action and entirely unjustifiable policy. IL
will take no backward step upon this Ques-
ton. 1t will seek to improve, but never
| degrade the public service.
Appea1 to Patriotism of the People.
"There are other important and timely
declarations in the platform whica can
not here discuss. l must content myselt
with saying that they have my approval.
| If, as Republicans, we have lately ad-
dressed our attention, with what may
seem great Stress and earnestness, to the
new and unexpected assault upon the
financial integrity of the government we
| have done it because the menace is so
| grave as to demand especial consideration.
| and because we are convinced that II the
people are gAoused to the true understand
| ing and meaning Of this silver imitation
movement they will avert the danger. In
| doing this, we feel that we render the best
service possible to the country, and we ap-
peal to the intelligence, conscience and
patriotism of the people, irrespective OF
| party, or section, for their earnest sup
| port.
| 1t Will Maintain Law and Order.
eve avoid no issues. We meet the sud-
| den dangerous and revolutionary ASSAULT
upon law and order, and upon those to%
| whom is confded by the constitution and
laws the authority to uphold and maintain
them, which our opponents have made,
with the same courage that we have faces
every emergency since our organization as
party more than forty years ago. Gov
| eminent by law must first be assured:
everything else can wait The spirit Of
| laWlessness must be extinguished by the
| fires of an unselfsh and lofty patriotism.
Every attack upon the public faith and
every suggestion of the reputation of
| deots, public or private, must be rebuked
by all men who believe that honesty is the
| best policy or who love their country and
would preserve unsullied it's national
| honor.
sectfonalism Almost Obliterated.
"The country is to be congratulated upen
| the almost total obliteration of Sectional
ilnes, which for many years marked tbe
division Of the United States into Slave
and free territory, and finally Threatened
