PHILADELPHIA, June 20.-The
Committee on Resolutions completed
its preparation Of the platform at
1926. Senator Fairbanks, chairman
of the committee Immediately left the
hotel Walton, where it had been put
in shape, for the convention hall. Fol
lowing is the full text of the docu-
ment:
The Republicans of the United States
through their chosen representatives
met in national convention, looking
back upon an unsurpassed record of
achievement and looking forward in
to a great field of duty and opportun-
ity, and appealing to the judgment of
their countrymen, make these declar-
ations:
The expectation in which the Amer
ican people, turning from the Demo
cratic party, entrusted power four
years ago to a Republican chief mag
lstrate
And a Republican Congress
has been met and satisfied. When the
people then assembled at the polls,
after a term of Democratic legislation
and administration, business was dead,
industry paralyzed and the national
credit disastrously impaired. The
country's capital was hidden away and
its labor distressed and unemployed.
The Democrats had no other plan with
which to improve the ruinous condi-
tions which they had themselves pro-
duced than to coin silver at the ratio
of 16 to 1. The Republican party, de-
n~ouncing this plan as sure to produce
conditions even worse than those from
which relief was sought promised to
restore prosperity by means of two leg
islative 'measures-a protective tariff
and a law making
GOLD THE STANDARD OF VALUE
The people by great majorities issued
to the republican party a commission
to enact these laws. This commission
-%1s been executed, and the Republican
promise is redeemed. Prosperity more
general and more abundant than We
have ever known has followed these
enactment. There is no longer con-
troversy as to the value of any govern
ment obligations. Every American
dollar is a gold dollar or it's assured
equivalent, and American credit stands
higher than that of any nation. Capt.
tai is fully employed and labor every
where is proitably occupied. No
| single fact can more strikingly tell
the story of what Republican govern
ment e to the country thar this
that while during the whole period
of n hundred and seven years from
1890 to 1897
There Was an Excess of Exports
over imports of only 1888, OPS, 497, there
has been in the short three years of the
present Republican administration an
excess of exports over the imports in
the enormous sum of SLASH, 537, 094.
And while the American people, sus-
tanned by this Republican legislation,
have been achieving these splendid
triumphs in their business and COM
merce, they have conducted and in VIC
Tory concluded a war for liberty and hui
man rights. No thought of national
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT furnished the high pur-
pose with which American standards
were unfurled. 1t was a war unso1ght

In accepting by the treaty of Paris
the just responsibility of our victories
in the Spanish war, the President and
the Senate won the undoubted approval
of the American people. No other
course was possible than to destroy
SPANS sovereignty throughout the
western Indies and in the Philippine
islands. That course created u re-
sponsibility before the world and with

whom our Intervention had freed from
Spain, to provide for the maintenance
of law and order, and for the estab-

the performance of international oDll-
cations. Our authority could not be
less than our responsibility and Wher-
ever sovereign rights were extended 1t
became the high duty OF the government
to maintain its authority, to put down
armed insurrection and to confer the
blessings of liberty and civilization up
on all the rescued peoples.

and to the skill and foresight or Re-
publican craftsmanship. To ten mil
lions of the human race there was given
"a new birth of freedom" and to the
American people a new and noble re-
sponsibility.
We endorse the administration of
William Mckinley. Its acts have been
established in wisdom and in patriot
ism, and at home and abroad it has dis
tinctly elevated and extended the infu-
ence of the American nation. Walking
untried paths and facing unforeseen re-
sponsibilities, President Mckinley has
been in every situation the true Ameri-
can patriot and the upright statesman,
clear in vision, strong in judgement,
firm in action, always inspiring and de-
serving the confidence Of his country
men.
In Asking the American People
to indorse this Republican record and
to renew their commission to the Re-
publican party, We remind them of the
fact that the menace to their prosperity
has always resided in Democratic prin-
cipios and no less in the general incap-
acity of the Democratic party to CON

gently with each new problem of ad-

fidence the Democratic party has never
earned. 1t is hopelessly inadequate
and the country's prosperity when
Democratic success at the polls is an
%nounced, halts and ceases in mere an

failures.

LABOR'S PLANS
For the Restriction of European I'm
migration.

New York, June 5.-Delegatesa of cen
tral labor bodies who We're appointed TO
consider the question Of the restriction
OF immigration held a conference last
night.
a letter was received from S. Dubois,
who suggested as a solution of the aues-
ton that all immigrants be landed in
southern ports, as New Orleans and
Mobile. instead of in New York, where
there was a congestion of population
Ihe fare to those ports, he said, would
be $40 more than to New York, and that
would deter poor foreigners from COM
ing. Again, said Dubois, an influx of
immigrants would arouse the south to
renewed activity.
William H. Allen, of District Assem-
bly, No AZ, said that Italians who came
here and worked awhile and then re-
turned to their homes took away from
this country S25, 200, 600 annually This,
combined with what other birds of
passage took away, swelled the
amount to about S100 00O, 900 annually
He went on to say that as it had been
impossible to secure direct legislation
to restrict immigration, he would sug-
SeSt some indirect way to secure this
end, and he offered a resolution that
the government withdraw gold from cir
culation and substitute free silver and
1rredeemable paper currency. This. he
believed, would especially discourage
Italians from coming here
When asked whether he did not think
tIat OtHef nations would retalate Tor
such radical changes in the currency
system here, Mr.. Allen thought that
America should not care what other
nations did, and that the Astors and
other rich men who spent their money
in Europe would come back and spend
it here
Delegate John S. Henry. of the Cen
tral Federated union, who was in the
chair, thought that this plan was Wis
iorary. to say the least. He would, he
said mako a PQTOnhn6inT1 of all the
plans and suggestions that had been
sent in, together with the conclusions
Of the conference. and submit them to

At the Detroit convention last year
a number of committees were appoint
ed and these submitted their reports
today. Among the purposes for which
committees were appointed were these:
TO consider the best methods of check
ing the abuses Of public advertising;
to consider the best method of keeping
park accounts and to recommend the
same for general adoption; to cooper
ate with the bureau of horticulture at
the Pan-American exposition to be held
in Buffalo in 1901, and to consider the
of;eriAg of prizes for designs for home

twenty seats and the north will in great

In short, the result fOreseen by all SEN

The Frigate Hartford Will Cross the

NV York, June 5.-A special to the
Tribune from Washington says:
The frigate Hartford, which has just
made the straightaway voyage from
San Francisco to Newport News is to
be ordered to Europe to complete the
education of her crew, who shipped from
the Pacific coast as landsmen under a
four years enlistment. Their cruise
around Cape Horn gave them some
thing more than a rudimentary know
ledge of maritime life and after the run
across the Atlantic they will probably
be fit for regular warship duty When
the Hartford reaches the French coast
next month she will be the flagship of a
squadron of training ships in European
waters larger than ever before assem-
bled abroad by the United States. The
others will be the Dixie, now on her
way to the Mediterranean from Manila;

DUST OVER ALL.
Gov. Stanley Disguised With Condi-
tion of Representative Hall.

John Dudley. the custodian of the
state house, was summoned to repre-
sentative hall by the governor this
forenoon. Dudley was called in so the
governor could personally point out
where official neglect of duty was ap-
parent.
This is a state meeting" said the
governor. Not a chair or table has
been busted. It's a shame"
What the governor said was very
true. The chairs and tables were COW
cred with dust and the mating which
covers representative hall from the en-
trance to the speakers stand was piled
up under the press table. All of these
things made the governor angry, and he
sent a summons for Dudley, who was
severely criticized for the condition OF
the hall
