We, your committee on resolutions
beg leave to submit the following
report:

the healthful prosperity that marks
1 the wise and splendid administration
Of William Mckinley; renew our al
legiance to the Republican principles
of reciprocity, protection to American
Industries and American labor; re.
affirm our adherence to the doctrine OF
sound money: heartily approve the
annexation of Hawaii, the strategic
base of the Pacific; commend the
courageous course of the President in
maintaining the National honor, and
rejoice in the glorious achievements OF
our army and navy, whose matchless
victories have added imperishable lus
ter to our arms.
We especially commend the admin
istration for the faithful manner il
which it has redeemed the party
pledges to the people, and point will

trasts which distinguish Republican
from Democratic rule.
We can not, we will not forget t,
express our continued gratitude to th,
old soldiers, whose courage and devo

of peril, and whose declining years ant
gray hairs deserve the most respectful
recognition and consideration, and We
denounce in unmeasured terms the
