Monroe Doctrine.

We reassert the Monroe doctrine in
its full extent and reaffirm the right Of
the Unuited States to give the doctrine
effect by responding to the appeals Of
any American state for friendly inter-
vention in case Of European encroach-
ment. We have not interfered, and
shall not interfere, with the existing
possessions Of any European power in
this hemisphere. but those possessions
must not, on any pretext, be extended.
We hopefully look forward to the
eventual withdrawal Of the European
powers from this hemisphere. and the
ultimate union Of all the English
speaking part of the continent by the
free consent Of its inhabitants.

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
nation. We watch with deep and abid-
ing interest the heroic battle of the Gu
ban patriots against cruelty and OPP
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 its treaty obligatlones. we believe
that the government Of the United
States should actively use its influence
and good offices to restore peace and
give Independence to the island.

IoLD NUGGETS FROM MeKINLEY's
LETTER or ACCEPTANCE.


The Republican party il not opposed

done all Il could for IL consistent with
safety.
Blmetalllsm cannot be secured by In
dependent action ON our part. nor by
opening our mints 10 free silver. until
international agreement is had II II the
duty OF the United states TO maintain
the gold standard.
The owner OF the silver bullion would
get the silver dollar; the people would
get II only by their labor.
The mere declaration that the Demo-
Gratis propose 10 lnaugurate the free
and unlimited coinage OF silver Is a
menace 10 our financial and Industrial
Institutions.
What would keep the new silver dol
lars at par with gold7 There would be
no obligation on the government 10 do
he. the simple truth Is, we would be dry-
en- 10 n silver basis--to silver mono
metallism.
We now have more silver than gold.
Elghty-four per cent Of our foreign
trade Is with gold standard countries.
We have more silver in use than any
country IN the world except China or
India
Free silver would contract our cur
rency and drive 5OO.OOo,OOO gold dollars
out Of circulation.
The money Of n country should never
be the subject OF partisan contention.
In addition TO free silver we are asked
10 enter on an era Of i~rredeemable paper
currency. We are not a nation Of
classes. and appeals TO prejudice should
be rebuked.

Pensions for Veterans.

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 employ
ment. and they are entitled to the en-
ac.ment Of such laws as best calculat-
ed to secure the fulhilment Of the
pledges made to them in the dark days
Of the country's peril. We denounce
the practice Of the pension bureau 50
recklessly and unjustly carried on by
the present administration, Of reducing
pensions and arbitrarily dropping
names from the rolls. as deserving the
severest condemnation Of the American
people.

Foreign Relations.

Our foreign policy should be at all
times Arm. vigorous and dignihed, and
all our interests in the western hemis-
phere carefully watched and guarded.
The Hawaiian Islands should be con-
trolled by the United States and no for
eign power should be permitted to in
terfere with them. The Nicaragua
Canal should be built. owned and OPP
Grated by the United States. and by
the purchase Of the Danish Islands we
secure a proper and much-need-
ed naval station in the West Indies.

A PrOtect'ye Tariff.

We renew and emphasize our allegi-
ance TO the policy Of protection as the
bulwark Of American industrial indie
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
eign goods. It secures the American
market for the American producer; 1t
uphOlds the American standard of
wages for the American workngman;
II puts the factory by the side Of the
farm. and makes the American farmer
less dependent on foreign demand and
price; 1t dinuses general thrift and
POUNDS the strength Of all on the
strength OF each. In its reasonable APP
plication It is Just. fair. and impartial.
equally opposed to foreign control and
domestic monopoly. to sectional dis
elimination 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
tariff on foreign imports which come
into competition with American pro-
ducts as will not only furnish adequate
evenue for the necessary expenses of
the government, but win 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 condi-
tions Of the time and production; the
ruling and uncompromising principle
is the protection and development Of
American labor and industry. The
country demands a right settlement
and then 1t wants rest.

tories shall be selected from bona hde

Armenian MaSSacreS.

The massacres in Armenia have
aroused the deep sympathy and Just
of the American people,
and we believe that the United States
exercise all the influence 1t can
properly exert to bring these atrocities
to an end. In Turkey. American resi-
dents have been exposed to the gravest
dangers and American property de-
stroyed. There and everywhere Amer
lean citizens and American property
must be absolutely protected at all

Protection to Sugar Producers.

We condemn the present administra-
ton for not keeping faith with the
producers of this country. The
Republican party favors such protec-
ton as will lead to the production on
American soil of all the sugar the
American people use. and for which
they pay other countries more than
500, 900, 900 annually.
The daily morning Astorian. [volume] (Astoria, Oregon) 1883-1899, 1896-10-16
Reciprocity With Other Nations.

We believe the repeal Of the reci-
procity arrangements negotiated by the
last Republican administration was a
national calamity, and we demand
their renewal and extension on such
terms as will 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
recklessly struck down both. and both
must be re-established. 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 our
own market for ourselves. Reciprocity
builds up foreign trade and finds an
outlet for our surplus.
