Stronger Army and Navy.

We must further strengthen our navy
and build up our army, that they may
be equal to any demand made upon them
as we work out our destiny. Hawaii and
Porto Rico are ours; and in the Fast and
West Indies the interests of the nation
shall be safeguarded.
Nor is it alone on national issues that
the republican party has its duties to per-
form. The record made by the republican
administration of the state of New York is
a guarantee that upon all questions affect
ing the property rights and interests and
liberty of all citizens, the republican party
can be safely trusted. as we pledge our
selves to uphold the national honor abroad
SO We pledge ourselves to enforce strict
honesty at home.
The National Guard must be raised to
and kept at the highest standard of eff
cheney; it has amply proved it's courage
and patriotism, and we are bound to see
that soldiers so brave and so willing are
properly armed. and are handled Oh the
best possible system.
Il heartily concur in the doctrines enun-
ciated at Saratoga, and, if elected, l shall
earnestly strive so to discharge the duties
of the chief executive, that at the end of
my term, the people shall find that their
interests have been safe in my hands"

NatiOpal Issues Paramount.

National issues are paramount this year
1t is not more possible to conduct a state
election now without regard to national
issues than it was possible so to conduct
che in 1861 or 1865. AS it then was, so it
now is. the interest of the nation as a
whole. which is of vital and absorbing in
terest TO each citizen. Then, as now, the
republican party was forced to find new
issues, to confront new problems. Then,
row, it was forced not to follow, but to
make precedents- In 1861 we had to pre-
serve the republic for its great destiny: in
1S9S We have to take a long stride toward
the accomplishment of that destiny. The
republican party, therefore, in its state
Platform, does well to reiterate the prom
ises under which it was possible to elect
republican President, pledges which made
ii possible to restore prosperity to our
country and to put the nation where it IL
possible to work cut the glorious future
which is now before reunited nation.
The issues for honest money, for protec-
ton to American industry, for the up
building of a merchant marine. adequate to
carry the commerce of the world and To
form naval militia in times of war, are
as vital this yea: as they were in the great
contest which was so successfully fought
in 1896

Don't show the least fear. Speak to
him in a quiet, friendly tone. Your DOS
ture, your firm eye and the tone of your
voice will act as a sort Of hypnotisin on
the animal, and he will be certain not
to bite you. No dog will attack a per-

more than he will attack a telegraph
pole, for it is only when the animal ex-
poets to be struck that he will try to
bite the person who may wish to strike

Should the dog happen to bite you
for any reason, quietly walk to the
nearest house or shop and have the place
washed off with plenty of cold water.
Then go to the nearest physicians OR

and in few minutes you will be Just

gold. They were as beautifully
equipped They carried basilisks, cul-
verins. serpentines and bombardes.
The latter the old prints describe as

Dor of san Juan. When he left the
town was in.ruins and his ballast was

hind him. Cumberland who followed
him there, was an equally choice but
an entirely private corsair. What he
did was on his own hook. What he
lacked was a steady gale of good fort
une, which his colleague enjoyed.
Though he took San Juan fever took
