 an hour. When he came up he told the executive officer that 1t would take about

 was given the task and every day at
 nine o'clock clad in rubber suit and

 until meal time came again.
 For five days Johnson kept this up and then the chief gunner grew sus- picious. About o'clock one afternoon he ordered second divers suit out This he donned and went overheard.

 Not bad lot when sober, not a bad lot when drunk. but quarrelsome always and hard to handle. The western miner. no matter what his condition may be, never forgets, in the presence of ladies, that he is, or was, a gentleman.

Chicago, June 22.-The platform of the republican party as presented to the na- tional convention today. is as follows:
 Fifty years ago the republican party came into existence. dedicated, among other purposes, to the great task of ar resting the extension of human slavery In 1860 it elected its first President. Dur ing twenty-four of the forty-four years which have elapsed since the election of Lincoln. the republican party has held complete control of the government. For eighteen more of the forty-four years it has held partial control through the pos session of one or two branches of the government while the democratic party during the same period has had complete control for only two terms. This long tenure of power by the republican party is not due to chance. It Is a demonstra- ton that the republican party has com manded the confidence of the American people for nearly two generations to degree never equaled in our history, and has displayed a high capacity for rule and government which has bean made even more conspicuous by the ineapacity and infrnity of purpose shown by it's op- ponents.
 PARTY RECORD.
 The republican party entered upon it's present period of complete supremacy in 1897. We have every right to congratu- late ourselves upon the work since then accomplished for 1t has added luster even to the traditions of the party which carried the government through the storms of the civil war.
 We then found the country after four years democratic rule in evil plight, op- pressed with misfortune and doubtful of the future.
 Public credit had been lowered the revenues were declining, the debt was growing the attitude toward Spain was feeble and mortifying the standard of values was threatened and uncertain, labor was unemployed. business was sunk in tho panic of 1893; hope was faint and

DOMESTIC RELATIONS.

Prominently successful in regard to our foreign relations he has been equally for tunae in dealing with domestic questions. The country has known that public credit and the national currency were absolutely safe in the hands of his administration. In the enforcement of the laws he has not only shown courage but the wisdom which understands that to permit the laws to be violated or disregarded opens the door to anarchy while the Just en- forcement of the law Is the sounder con- servatsm. He has held firmly to the fundamental American doctrine that all men must obey the law, that there must be np discrimination between rich and poor, between strong and weak, but the justice and equal protection under the law must be secured to every citizen with out regard to race. creed or condition
 His administration has been through out vigorous and honest high-minded and patriotic. We commend it without reser- vation to the considerate judgment of the American people.

FOREIGN MARKETS.

We have extended widely our foreign markets and we believe in the adoption of all practlt able methods for their further extension including commercial recipro- city wherever reciprocal arrangements can be effected consistent with the prin- cipes of protection and without injury to American agriculture. American labor or un-American industry.
 We believe 1t to be the duty of the re- publican party to uphold the gold stand dard and the integrity and value of our national currency. The maintenance of the gold standard established by the republi- can party cannot safely be committed to the democratic party which resisted It's adoption and has never given any proof since that time of belief in it or fidelity to

vexed and perilous question of Alaskan boundry was fir sly settled.
 Whenever crimes against humanity have been perpetrated which have shocked our people, his protest has been made and our good offices have been rendered out always with due regard to international obligations.
 Under his guidance we find ourselves at peace with all the world, and never were we more respected nor our wishes more regarded by foreign nations.

PROTECTION.

Protection which guards and develops our industries Is a cardinal policy of the republican party. The measure of pro- tection should always at least equal the difference in the cost of the production at home and Abroad. We insist upon the maintenance of'the principles of protec- ton and therefore rates of duty should be readjnsted only when conditions have so changed that the public interest de- mands their alteration. but this work can not safely be committed to any other hands than those of the republican party. To entrust it to the democratic party Is to invite disaster. Whether. in 1852, the democratic party declared the protec- tion tariff unconstitutional, or whether it demands tariffsEeform or tarifr revision it's real objectga4 always the destruction of the protective system. However spe- cious the name the purpose is ever the same. A democratic tariff has always been followed by business adversiues. a republican tariff by business prosperity. To a republican congress and republi- can President this great question can be safely entrusted When the only free trade country among the great nations agitates return to protection the chief protective country should not falter in maintaining 1t.

THE TRUSTS.

Laws enacted by the republican party which the democratic party failed to en- force and which were intended for the protection of the public against the un- just discrimination or the illega en- croaehment of vast aggregations of capi- tai have been fearlessly enforced by a republican president and new laws en- surng reasonable publicity as to the op- erations of great corporations and pro vlding additional remedies for the pre- vention of discrimination in freight rates have been passed by a republican con- gre.s,
 In this record of achievement during the past eight years, may be read the pledges which the republican party has fulfilled, We propose to continue these policies and We declare our present ad- herence to the following principles:

 We have passed laws for the imRfove- ment 9nd support of the militia.
