The Financial Issue.

1.-THE Republican party is unreserv-
eddy for sound money. II caused the
enactment Of the law providing for the
resumption Of specie payments In 1873;
since then every dollar has been as
good as gold. We are unalterably OPP
posed TO every calculated to de-
base our currency or impair the credit
of our country. We are. therefore. OPP
posed to the free coinage Of silver. ex-
cept by international agreement with
the leading commercial nations Of the
world, which we pledge ourselves to
promote, and until such agreement can
be obtained we believe the existing
gold standard must be preserved. All
our silver and paper currency now in
circulation must be maintained at q
parity with gold. and we favor all
measures designed to maintain inviola-
bic the obligations Of the United
States. and all our money, whether coin

Rights of Women.

The Republican party is mindful Of
the rights and interests of women. Pro-
lection Of American industries includes
equal opportunities. equal pay for equal
work and protection to the home. We
favor the admission Of women TO wider
spheres Of usefulness. and welcome
their cooperation in rescuing the coun-
try from Democratic and Populist mis-
management and misrule. Such are the
principles and policies of the Republic
can party. By these principles we will
abide and these principles we will put
into execution. We ask for them the
c~onsiderate judgment of the American
people.
Confident alike in the history of our
great party and in the justice Of our
cause, we present our platform and our
considerations, in the full assurance
that the election will bring victory to
the Republican party and prosperity to
the people Of the United States.

A Protective 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;
1t puts the burden Of revenue on for
eign goods. II secures the American
market for the American producer; 1t
upholds the American standard OF
wages for the American workingman;
1t 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 ap-
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
revenue for the necessary expenses OF
the government, but 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 a practical
question. to be governed by the condi-
tons 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.

popular and historical Justification Of
their claims to the matchless achieve
ments Of thirty years Of Republican
rule, earnestly and confidently address
themselves TO the awakened lntelli-
gence. experience and conscience OF
their countrymen in the following dec
laratlon Of facts and principles:
For the first time since the Civil
War the American people have wit
messed the calamitous consequences Of
full and un~restralned Democratic con-
troll Of the Government II has been
a record Of unparalleled incapaclty, dis
honor and disaster. In administrative

It has precipitated panic, blighted in
dustry and trade with prolonged de-
preston. closed factories. reduced work
and wages, halted enterprise and Grip
pied American production while stimu-
lating foreign production for the Amer

public safety and individual interest

years administered 1t with unequaled
success and prosperity.

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 n
ac.ment of such laws as best calculat-
ed to secure the fulhllment Of the
pledges made to them in the dark days
OF the country's peril We denounee
the practice of the pension bureau so
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.

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
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 Dr. to comply
with its treaty obligationes, 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.

tories shall be selected from bona hde

Armenian MaSSacreS.

The massacres in Armenia have
aroused the deep sympathy and just
indignation Of the American people.
and we believe that the United States
should exercise all the influence it 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
hazards and at any cost.

Monroe Doctrine.

We reassert the Monroe doctrine in
its full extent and reafirm 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.

Our foreign policy should be at all
times firm, vigorous and dignihed. and
all our interests In the western hemis-

The Hawaiian Islands should be con-

For the protection Of the equality Of
our American citizenship and OF the
wages Of u workingmen against the
fatal competition OF low-priced labor.
we demand that the immigration laws

United States those who can neither

Reciprocity With Other Nations.

We believe the repeal Of the reci-
prucity 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 IL farms, forests and factories.
Protection and reciprocity are twin
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 u open market to
Protection builds up domestic
industry and trade and secures our
market for ourselves. Reciprocity
builds up foreign trade and finds an
for our surplus.

Protection to Sugar Producers.

We condemn the present administra-
ton for not keeping faith with the
sugar 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
800, 900, 900 annually.
