1.-The protective tariff policy of the
Republican party has made the. United
States the greatest industrial nation,
astonished the world.with the tremen.
dous development Of our boundless re
sources; has added vastly to our for
e1gn commerce; has greatly increased
he prosperity Of the farmer, and has
advanced American labor to the bes,
scale of living ever attained. We op.
pose all attacks upon this policy, what
ever the pretext, as tending to bring
back the disastrous days of Democra-
tic tariff revision and free trade.
Changing conditions and the possible
benefits of reciprocity may call fo1
timely readjustment of schedules, but
protection as a principle and as a pol
Icy must be administered by the
friends of American prosperity and
must not be sacrificed.
Combinations for the monopoly of
trade and kindred unlawful purposes
are directly amenable to penalties pro
Rided by Republican Legislation and
their vigorous enforcement in the
courts. No worthy interest is imper.

harm Is restrained and that without re-
sort to the Democratic plane of destroy
Ing all American industries through
tariff revision or otherwise. If further
legislation should be found necessary
the Republican party can be depended
upon to enact and enforce 1t with
equity and safety in every legitimate
