a previous republican administration ac-
cumulated in the federal treasury, to,
the profound satisfaction with which
England halls the announcement uf her
chancellor of the exchequer that her
surplus Tor the fiscal year is larger than
ever before. It was an evil thing, the
democrats told us, that surplus of q few
years ago. No nation ought TO permit
it. Well, we have had deficits enough
since. and we have PAID dearly enough
for them, The English people are not
SO foolish. Tney are glad to see bal

the Unulted States TO give the doctrine

any American state for friendly inter
ventlon In case OF European encronch-

Reciprocity With Other Nations.

We believe the repeal OF the reci-
proclty arrangements negotiated by the
last Republican administration was n
national calamity, and we demand
their renewal and extension on such
terms as win equallze 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
recklessly struck down both. and both
must be re-establIshed. Protection for
what we produce. free admission for
the necessarles 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 10
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

to free themselves from European dom

Ing interest the heroic battle OF the Gu
ban patriots against cruelty and op-
preston. and our best hopes 20 out for
the full success OF their determined con-
test for liberty.
The government Of Spain. having lost

A Protective TarlA.

We renew and emphasize our allesi-
ance to the policy ot protection as the
hulwark OF American industrial lndc-
pendence and the foundation Of Amer
lean development and prosperity. This
true American policy taxes foreign pro-
ducts and encourages home industry;
Il puts the burden OF revenue on for
elgn goods. Il secures the American
market for the American producer: Il
upholds the American standard OF
wages for the American workingman: I:
Il puts tho factory by the side OF the
farm. and makes the American farmer
less dependent on foreign demand and
price; IL dlruses general thrift and
founds the strength OF all on the
strength OF each. In its reasonable ap-
plIcatlon II Is just. fair. and impartial.
equally opposed TO foreign control and
domestic monopoly TO sectional dis
elimination and individual tavorltiam.
We denounce the present Democratic
NAA hA 80 oNNANiAAAs injurious W wv pun
lie credit and destructive TO business
enterprise. We demand such equitable
tarin on foreign imports which come
into competition with American pro-
ducts as viii 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 practical
question, to be governed by the condl-
tions OF the time and production; the
ruling and uncompromslng principle
is the protection and development OF
American labor and Industry. The
country demands a right settlement
and then II wants rest.

The work TO be done in the present
campaign to assure the election Of Nc
KinIey must be strictly educational in
its character. Great public demonstra-
tions are a necessity in all great cam
paigns, but the work Of the present has
to be done in the school house and in
the cross roads township meeting. Even
Ohio may be debatable If the cheap
money tidal wave shall continue, and
every state west and south Of Penn
sylvania will be a missionary field for
the friends Of sound money. All Of
them may be more or less hopefully
contested, with the exception Of Neva-
da, Colorado, Texas, Arkansas, Mis-
sissippi and South Carolina. II is pos
sible TO carry all the other states in the
Union for Mckinley as a sound money
candidate for president and it is with
In the range Of possibility for him to
lose every state west Of Pennsylvania
and south of the Potomac. Never was
there national contest with such va
rying possibilities, and never was there
a contest that demanded such system

pie in cross roads and school house
meetings.

Mrs. Partington's attempt to sweep
back the ocean with a broom was a
rational effort compared with the en-
deavors Of the free coinage advocates
Of the West and South. They should
raise their eyes, look abroad and note
the drift OF events. The world has pro-
gressed far beyond the wampum. iron,
copper and silver standards OF curren-
cy. Russia, with her vast population.
has formulated plan for putting her
paper currency on a gold basis. Little
Japan is preparing 10 make her money
actually, as it is theoretically. good as
gold, and even the republics Of South
America are keeping abreast OF the
movement. Venezuela by a vote Of
several provinces has now approved a
constitutional amendment adopting the
gold standard. II is at such a time
that the Tellerites would have the
model republic Of the North break
away from the line Of highly civilized
commercial nations and celebrate the
close Of the century by going down
TO the foot OF the class Of nations to
stand with Mexico and China on a sill
yer basis!
