Believe in Reciprocity.

We believe in reciprocity with foreign nations on the terms outlined In Presi- dent Mc<inleys last speech. which urged the extension of our foreign markets by reciprocal agreements whenever they could be made without injury to Amer ican industry and labor It Is singular fact that the only great reciprocity treaty recently adopted-that with Cuba was finally opposed almost alone by the representatives of the very party which now states that 1t favors reciprocity. And here again we ask that the worth of our words be judged by comparing their deeds with ours. On this Cuban reciproc- fly treaty there were at the outset grave differences of opinion among ourselves: and the notable thing in the negotiation and ratification of the treaty, and In the legislation which carried 1t into effect was the highly practical manner in which without sacrifice of principle these differ ences of opinion were reconciled. There was no rupture of a great party. but an excellent practical outcome. the result of the harmonious cooperation of two successive presidents and two successive congresses This Is an illustration of the governing capacity which entities us to the confidence of the people not only in our purposes but in our practical ability to achieve those purposes. Judging by the history of the last twelve years down to this very month. Is there justi- fication for believing that under similar circumstances and with similar initial differences of opinion, our opponents would have achieved any practical re- suits?

Fair and Equal Justice.


 We have already shown in actual fact that our policy Is to do fair and equal justice to all men, paying no heed to whether a man is rich or poor; paying no heed to his race, his creed, or his birth place.
 We recognize the organization of cap ital and the organization of labor as nat ural outcomes of our industrial system. Each kind of organization Is to be fa- vored so long as 1t acts in a spirit of justice and of regard for the rights of others. Each Is to be granted the full protection of the law, and each in turn is to be held to a strict obedience to the law; for no man is above it and no man below 1t. The humblest individual Is to have his rights safeguarded as scrupu- lously as those of the strongest organiza- ton. for each is to receive justice, no more and no less. The problems with which we have to deal in our modern in- dustrial and social life are manifold; but the spirit in which it is necessary to ap- proach their solution Is simply the spirit of honesty, of courage, and of common sense.
 In inaugurating the great work of IT, rigation in the west the administration has been enabled by congress to take one of the longest strides ever taken under our government toward utilizing our vast national domain for the settler. the &C., tual home-maker.

policies which have worked so well and which are now working so well. Prosper ity has come at home. The national hon or and interest have been upheld abroad. We have placed the finances of the na- ton upon a sound gold basis. We have done this with the aid of many who were formerly our opponents, but would neither openly support nor silently ac- quiesee in the heresy of unsound finance; and We have done it against the con- yinced and violent opposition of the mass Of our present opponents who still re- fuse to reeant the unsound opinions which for the moment they think is in- expedient to assert. We know what we mean when we speak of an honest and stable currency. We mean the same thing from year to year. We do nos nave to avoid definite and conclusive commit tai on the most important issue which has recently been before the people, and which may at any time in the near fu- ture be before them again. Upon the principles which underlie this issue the convictions of half of our number do not clash with those of the other half. So long as the republican party Is in pow CT the gold standard is settled, not as a matter of temporary political expediency, not because of shifting conditions in the prouuclon or gold in certain mining cen ters but in accordance with what we re- gard as the fundamental principles of national morality and wisdom
 Under the financial legislation which we have enacted there is ample circulation for every business need; and every dollar of this circulation is worth a dollar in gold. We have reduced the interest bearing debt and in still larger measure the interest on that debt. All of the war taxes imposed during the Spanish war have been removed with a view to re- heve the people and to prevent the ac- emulation of an unnecessary surplus. The result is that hardly ever before have the expenditures and income of the gov ernment so closely corresponded. In the fiscal year that has just closed the ex- cess of income over the ordinary expen- ditures were nine millions of dollars. This does not take account of the fifty millions expended out of the accumulated surplus for the purchase of the isthmian canal. It is an extraordinary proof of the sound financial condition of the nation that in- stead of following the usual course In such matters and throwing the burden upon posterity by an issue of bonds, we were able to make the payment outright and yet after 1t to have in the treasury surplus of one hundred and sixty -one this fifty millions of dollars out of hand without causing the slightest disturbance to business conditions
