THE PLATFORM
Under Which the Republicans Will March Il
Victory Next Fall.

The Republicans of the United States.
assembled by their representatives In ma
tional convention, appealing for the pop
uar and historical justification of their
claims to the matchless achievements of
80 years of Republican rule, earnestly
and confidently address themselves to the
awakened intelligence. experience and
conscience of their countrymen In the fol-
lowing declaration of facts and prin-
ciples.
For the first time since the Civil War
the American people have witnessed the
calamitons consequences of full and un-
restricted Democratic control OF the gov

adverse balance OF trade, kept Il perpet-

syndicates and reversed all the measures;
and results of successful Republican rule.
In the broad effect of its policy 1t has pre-

halted enterprises and crippled American
production while stimulating foreign pro-
duction for the American market Every
consideration of public safety and ndi-
vidual interest demands that the govern

those who have shown themselves inca

at home and dshonor abroad. and shall
be restored to the party which for 30
years administered II with unequalled
success and prosperity.

Tariff.

We renew and emphasize our allegi-
ance to the policy of protection as the
bulwark of American Industrial indepen-
dence and the foundation of American
development and prosperity. This true
American policy takes foreign products
and encourages home industry: it puts
the burden of revenue on foreign goods:
it secures the American market for the
American producer; it upholds the Amer
lean standard of wages for the American
workingman. ii puts the factory by the
side OF the farm and makes the Ameri-
can farmer less dependent On foreign de
mand and price; it difuses general
thrift and POUNDS the strength of all on
the strength of each. In its reasonah BILE
application it is just. fair and impartial.
equally opposed to foreign control and
domestic monopoly. to sectional discrim-
nation and individual favoritism.
We denouce the present Democratic
tariff as sectional. injurious to the public
credit and destructive to business enter
prise. We demand such an equitable tar
If on foreign imports which come into
competition with American products as
will not only furnish adequate revenue
for the necessary expenses of the govern
ment. but viii protect American 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 gov
erned by the conditions of the time and
of production: the ruling and uncom-
promising principle is the protection and
development of American labor and in
dustry. The country demands a right
settlement, and then it wants rest.

Money.

The Republican party is unreservedly
for sound money. 1t caused the enact
ment of the law providing for the re-
sumption of specie payments in 1879;
since then every dollar has been as good
as gold.
We are unalterably opposed to every
measure calculated to debase our cur
rency or impair the credit of our country.
We are, therefore opposed to the free
coinage of silver except by international
agreement with the leading commercial
nations of the world, which we pledge
ourselves to promote. and until such
gold standard must be preserved. All
our silver and paper currency must be
maintained at parity with gold. and we
favor all measures designed to maintain
inviolably the obligations of the United
States and all our money. whether coin
or paper. at the present standard. the
standard of the most enlightened nations
of the earth.
Pensions.
The veterans of the Union armies de-
serve and should receive fair treatment
and generous recognition. Whenever
practicable they should be given the
preference in the matter of employment
and they are entitled to the enactment of
such laws as are best calculated to secure
the fuillment of the pledges made to
them in the dark days of the country's
peril. We denounce the practice in the
pension bureau. so recklessly and I'M
Justly carried on by the present admins
tration, of reducing pensions and arbi-
trarily dropping names from the rolls. as
deserving the severest condemnation of
the American people.

Reciprocity.

We believe the repeal of the reciprocity

publican administration WAS a national
calamity. and We demand their renewal
and extension on such terms as will

remove the restrictions which now Oh
struct the sale of American products in
the ports OF other countries. and secure
enlarged markets for the products of our
farms, forests ana factories.
Protection and reciprocity are twin
measures of Republican policy. and go
hand in hand. Democratic rule has reck-
lessly struck down both. and both must
be re-eStabished. Protection for what
we produce; free admission for the neccs-
saries of life which we do not produce
reciprocal agreements of mutual interest
which gain open markets for us in return
for our open market to others. Protec-
ton builds up domestic industry and
trade. and secures our market for our
selves; reciprocity builds up foreign trade
and finds an outlet for our surplus.
