FOREIGN RELATIONS

Our foreign policy should be at all
tunes firm. vigorous and dignilied,
tnd all our interest, in the western
hemisphere carefully watched and
guarded. The Hawaiian Islands should
&c controlled by the United States, and
40 foreign power should be permitted
10 interfere with them; the Nicaragua
anal should be built, owned and oper
lled by the United States, ana by the
purchase of the Danish Islands we
secure proper and much needed naval
~tation in the West Indies.

TAIiIIF

We renew and emphasize our ale
glance 10 the policy Of protection as
the bulwark of American industrial in
dependence and the foundation OF
American development and prosperity.
TINS true American policy taxes foreign
products aud encourages home industry;
it pats the burden of revenue on foreign
goods; il secures the American market
for the American producer; II uphOlds
the American standard of wages for
the American wOrklngman; it puts the
factory by the side OF e "a IN, ard
makes the American farmer less de.
pendent on foreign demand and r.ces;
il diffuses general thrift. and POUNDS the
strength OF all on the strength of each.
In its reasonable application it is just.
fair and impartial, equally opposed to
foreign control and domestic monopoly,
To sectional discrimination and indi-
vidual favOriti,m.
We denounce the present Democratic
tariff as sectional, injurious TO the pub
lie credit, and destructive 10 business
enterprise. We demand such an equt-
able tariff on foreign products As Will
not only furnish adequate revenue for
the necessary expenses of the govern
ment, but will protect American labor
from degeneration to the ware level
of other lands. We are not pledged TO
any particular particular schedules
The uestion of rates is practical
question, TO be governed by the condi-
tons of time and Of production; the
ruling and uncompromsing principle
is the protection and development of
American labor and industry. The
country demand, right settlement,
and then II wants rest.

From the hour of achieving their own
independence the people of the United

contest for liberty,
The government of Spain, having
lost control of Cuba, and being unable
to protect the property or lives of resi-

with its treaty obligations, we believe
that the government of the United

RECIPROCITY.

We believe the repeal of the rcclpro-
city arrangements negotiated by the
last Republican, administration was a
national calamity, and we demand their
renewal and eutension on such terms As
will equalize our trade with other ma
tons. remove the restrictions which
now obstruct the sale of American
products in the ports ef other countries.
and secure enlarged markets for the
products IN the ports of other countries,
and secure enlarged markets for the
products of our farms, forests and fac
tories.
Protection and reciprocity are twin
measures of Republican policy and 90
hand in hand. Democratic rule has
reckessly struck down both, and both
must be re-established. Protection for
what we produce; free admission for
the necessaries Of life, which we do not
produce; reciprocal agreements of NUT
ual interests, which gain open markets
for Us in return for our open markets
TO Others. Protection builds up domes-
tic industry and trade, and secures our
own market for ourselves; reciprocity
builds up foreign trade and finds an
outlet for our surplus.
