advantage and good WILLY
By the terms of the treaty with SPAN
ritory of the United States, and this
nation is bound by every consideration
of honor and good faith, as well as OF
self-interest, to assume the RESPONSE
bility which such ownership entails
We heartily approve the adminlstra-
ton in the action it has taken to sup
press instruction and establish the ma
tional authority in the islands. as well
a the policy it has pursued in 1nstltut-
ing civil government therein as rapidly
as possible and with as large partlcl-
patton on the part of the people as can
at this time be safely and consistently
permitted
WAYS bee the firm friends of the vet
Grams who fought through the great

we hereby renew the expression OF our
gratitude to them and favor liberal
pensions for them. their widows and
orphans
soldiers of this day, who, under the
leadership of Wheaton and Lawton
and Macarthur and Funston. have
proven themselves worthy of their
heroic sires and we condemn in I'M
measured terms the false charges made
against them and the brutal attacks
made upon them by those who seek
thus to gain a paltry political advan-
tage-
we cordially endorse the energetic
efforts that are being made by the at
torney general of the United States,
under direction of the president. to en-
force the provisions of the Sherman
can congress. The record of our party
in its opposition to com blnationS OF
capital having for their purpose the
restraint of trade, the crushing out of
competition the arbitrary and I'M
warranted advancement of prices, is
clear and consistent. And if it should
become apparent that existing laws are
inadequate to properly regulate these
com binations, the Republican party
may be relied upon to enact such fur
ther legislation as will fully protect
the in terests of the people.
The Republican principle of a protec-
tive tariff was never more firmly fixed
in national policy than it is now.
1t has developed our industries, pre-
served our domestic trade. extended
our foreign markets, and contri buted
more than any other one policy to our
present unparalleled prosperity.
Reciprocity has we'll been described
as the handmade of protection. and
under wise Repu b1ican administration
reciprocal arrap gementS can be nego-
tiated with other nations which will
result in opening new markets for
American products without in any de-

our home industries. We therefore,
reaffirn our adherence to these two
cardinal tenets of the Repu blican faith,
believing that both will be of the high
est Importance in helping the United
States to win and main tain the com
nercia1 supremacy of the world
we note with Satisfaction ana APP
prova1 the enactment by the congress
now in session of legislation which will
debar the Chinese from admission to
the United States to the detriment of
American labor, and we demand that
our innnig ratiOn laws be so strength
ened as to exclude all unworthy and
undesirable immigrants whose presence
menace our citizenship and injure our
wage workers.
We are proud of the triumphs
achieved during the past five years by
larly approve the abrOgation of the
Clayton -Bulwer treaty which will
a bic the government to proceed with
the construction of iSthmian canal,
to be maintained under the authority
of the United States and under the
profession of our flag
We cordially endorse the course of
our senator ard representatives in con-
greSs-
We earnestly commend the able,
honest and economical administration
of Governor Stanley and the state Off
GERS, and congratulate the people of
the state that under their adminiStra-
ton its a affairs have been SO managed
as to meet the appreciation of the peo-
pie of Kansas.
We recognize in the wage earners of
Kansas an element comprising stall
wart and desirable citizenship whose
rights and interests should be fully
protected and conserved.
Earnestly believing that the unpar-
alleled prosperity which has come to
all classes of people during the
past five years has been due in a large
measure to the practical application of
Republican principles, and that the
continuation of existing conditions de-
ponds largely upon the con tinued
cendancy of these prin ciples. we pledge
our united and enthusiastic support to
the nominees of this convent ton and
cordially commend them and the prin-
ciples they represent, to all the people
