THE PARTY PLATFORM.
Principles of the Republican Party as
Enunciated by the Republican
Convention

through their CHOSEN TepFeSeh
tatlves. met in national convention,
looking baIk upon an unsurpassed
record OF achievement and looking for
ward into q great field of duty and
opportunity, and appealing to the
Judgment of their countTymen4 make
shese declarations:
The expectation in which the AmerI-
can people, turning from the Demo-
oTatio party, entrusted power four
years ago to Republican chief magi
strate and Republican congress, has
been met and satisfied. When the peo'
pie then assembled at the polls, after 6
term of Democratic legislation and ad
ministration, business was dead, Indus
tFy parsIy zed, and the national credit
dIsastrously impaired. The country e
capital was hidden away and lis labor
distressed and unemployed. The Dem
ocrats had no other plan with which 20
Improve the FuinOus conditions which
they had themselves produced than
to coin silver at a ratio of l6 to /.
The Republican pasty. deuouncing this
plan as sure to produce conditions even
worse than those from which relief was
sought. promised to restore prosperity
by means of TWO legislative measures
8 protective tariff and law making
gold the standard Of value. The people
by great majorities issued to the Re-
publican party commission to enact
these laws.
This commission has been executed
and the Republican promise is redeem
ed. Prosperity more general and 10 ore
abundant than We have ever known
has followed these enactments. There
Is no longer controversy as 10 the statue
OF any government obligations. Every
American dollar is a gold dollar or its
assured equivalent, and American
credit stands higher than that Of any
nation. Capital is fully employed aad
Labor everywhere Is profitably Oecu-
pied. Ne single factor more strIkIngly
tells the st0Ey OF what Republican gov
eminent means to the country than
this-that while during the whole Pc
EIod OF lot years from 1870 to 1897 there
was an excess Of exports over imports
of only 1888. .028, ,491, there has been III
the short three years of the present Re
publican administration an excess o1
exports over imports In the sum OF
81, 4sS, ,537, ,O04.
Aad while the American people, sus
tanned by this Republican legislation,
have been achieving these splendid tEi
umphs IN their business and commerce
they have conducted and in victory
concluded war for liberty and human
rights. No thought Of national aggran
diZemeut taTnished the high purpose
with which American standards were
unfuIled. It was war uns0ught and
patiently resisted, but when it came
the American government was ready.
It's fleets were cleared for action. Its
armies were in the field and the quick
and signal triumph Gifts forces on land
and sea bore equal tribute to the eOur'
age of American soldiers and sailors
and to the skill and foresight of Repub
lcan statesmans ship. To ten millions

new birth of freedom" and 10 the

responsibilities, President Mckinley
has been in every situation the true
American patriot and The upright
statesman, clear in vision, strong In
Judgment, firm an action, always in
spring and deserving the COL fidenCe of
his couutrymen.
La asking the American people to
endorse this Republican record and To
renew theiE commission to the Repub'
lIean party, we remind them OF the fact
that the menace TO their prosperity has
always resided In Democratic princi
pies, and no less than in she general
incapscity OF the Democratic party tO
conduct public affairs. The Prime as
sential of business prosperity Ia public
confidence IN the good sense of the
government and in ats ability to deal
intelligently with each new problem OF
administration and legislation. That
confidence the Democratic party has
never earned. 1t is hopelessJy made
quste, and the ceuntry's prosperity
when Democratic success at the polls
is announced halts and ceases in mere
anticipation of Democratic blunders
and failures.
We renew our allegiance to the prin
cIple of the gold standard and declare
our confidence IN the wisdom of the
legislation OF the Fifty-sixth congress
by which the parity OF all our money
and the stability Of cur currency upor
a gold basis has been secured. We rec
ognize that interest rates are a poten
factor in production and business ao
tivity, and for the purpose of further
equalizing and OF further lowering th,
rate Of interest, we favor such mon
etary legislation as will enable tn,
varying needs of the season and of al
sections 60 be promptly met in ordel
that trade may be evenly sustained
labor steadily employed and commerce
enlarged. The volume of money in cir
culation was never so great per capits
as il is today.
We declare our steadfast opposition
/ to the free and unlimited coinage O
silver. No measure to that end coulC
be considered which was without sh,
support of the leading ooamercia
countries Of the world. However firmI,
republican legislation may seem {,
have secured the country against th,
peril Of base and discredited currency
the election of democratic presiden
could not fail to imraiE the country
credit and to bring once more into sues
tion the intention OF the American peo
pie 10 maintain upon the gold STANDARD
the parity OF their money circulation

In the farther interest Of American

@ oild labor, the protection OF free labor

Our present dependencies on foreign

danger to our trade, for its sudden
withdrawal In the event of European

fenge and naval efficiency OF This coun'
try, moreover, supply a compelling
reason for legislation which will enable
Us to recover our former place among

The nation owes a debt OF profound
gratitude to the soldiers and sailors who
have fought its battles, and ID Is the
governments duty to provlda for the
survivors and for the widows and OF
phans of those who have fallen IN the

founded on this iuss sentiment, should
be liberal and should be literally ad'
mlnistersd, and preference should be
given wherever practicable with re-
speet TO employment In the public ser
vice so soldiers and sailors and TO their
widows and orphans.
We commend the policy of the re-
publican party in maintaining the ef'
ticiency OF the civii service. The ad
ministxatioH has acted wisely in Its sf
fort TO secure for public segvice in Cuba,
Porto Rico, Hawaii and the Philippine
Islands only those whose fitness has
been determined by training and ex
perience. We believe that employment
in the public service in these territories
should be confined as far as practicable
TO their Inhabitants.
