DECLARATION OF REPUBLICAN PRINCIPLES.

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 1t elected Its first president.
During "a OF the "A years which have
elapsed since the election Of Lincoln the
Republican party has held complete
control of the government For is
more OF the a years it has held partial
control through the possession Of one or
two branches Of the government While
the Democratic marty during the same
period has had complete control for
only two years This long tenure OF
power by the Republican party Is not
due to chance, II Is demonstration
that the Republican party has com
manded the confidence Of the American
people for nearly two generations to "A
degree never cqualled In our history,
and has displayed "A high capacity for
rule and government which has been
made even more conspicuous by the
incapaolty and nhrmity OF purpose
shown by its opponents
COMPLETE SUPREMACY.
The Republican party entered upon
Ats present period Of complete SUI
premacy In 1897. We have every right
Ia congratulate ourselves upon the
work since then accomplished, for II
has added luster even TO the traditions
OF the party which carried the govern
ment through the storms OF civil war
AFTER DEMOCRATIC RULE.
We then found the country, after
four years OF Democratic rule, In evil
plight. oppressed with misfortune and
doubtful OF the future. Public credit
has been lowered, the revenues were
declining, the debt was growing, the
administration attitude towards spain
was feeble and mortfyin he stan
dard OF values was threatened and UNI
certeln, labor was crippled, business
was sunk In the depression which had
succeeded the panic Of 1893, hope was
faint and confidence was gone
UNHAPPY CONDITIONS MET.
We met these,unhappy conditions Wig
orously, effectively and alone. We re-
nlaced a Democratic tariff law based on
free trade principles and garnished With

Democratic administration made large
loans at extrayagant rates Of interest
In order to pay current expenditures
rose under Republican administration
to its highest point, and enabled MS TO
borrow at per cent even In time OF
war.
SET CUBA FREE.
We refused TO palter longer with the
miseries OF cuba, We fought quick
and vigorous war with Spain, We set
Cuba free, governed the island for three
years and then gave 1t TO the Cuban
people with order restored with ample
revenues, with education and public
health established. free from debt and
connected with the United states by
wise provisions for our mutual inter-
ests.
THE PHILIPPINES
We have organized the government
OF Porto Rico and its people now enjoy
peace, freedom order and prosperity.
In the Philippines we have suppress
ed insurrection, established order and
given TO life and property security
never known there before, We have
organized civil government, made II
effective and strong In administration,
and have conferred upon the people OF
those islands the largest civil liberty
they have ever enjoyed.
nv our possession OF the Philippines
we were enabled 20 take prompt and
effective action In the relief Of the le-
cations at pekn. and a decisive part IN
preventing the partition and the pre-
serving OF the integrity OF China.
A DREAM FULFILLED
The possession OF q route for an 18TH
milan canal so long the dream Of Ameri-
can staesmanshlp, Is now an accom-
pllshed fact The great work OF con-
Meeting the Pacific and Atlantic oceans

ARID LAND LAWS.
We have passed laws which will
bring the arid lands OF the United
states within the area Of cultivation.
We have reorganized the army and
nut il In the highest state Of efficiency.
We have passed laws for the Inn
provement and support OF the militia,
We have pushed forward the building
OF the navy, the defense and the protec-
lion OF our honor and interests.
GREAT DEPARTMENTS.
Our administration OF the great de-
partnenta of the government has been
honest and efficient, and wherever wrong
has been discovered the Republican ad-
mlnlstration has not hesitated 10 probe
the evil and bring the. offenders to JUS
tlce without regard to party or politi-
cal ties Laws enacted by the Repub-
llcln party which the Democratic party
failed 20 enforce and which were in
tended for the protection OF the public
against the unjust discrimination OF
the illegal encroachment OF vast aggre-
cations OF capital have been fearlessy
enforced by a Republican president and
new laws ensuring responsible publicity

A RECORD OF ACHIEVEMENTS.
In this record of achievements during
the past eight years may he read the
pledges which the Republican party
has fulfilled We propose to continue
this principle and we declare our con-
slant adherence to the following prin-
ciples;
Protection which guards and devel-
ops our Industries Is cardinal policy
OF the Republican party. The measure
OF protection should always at least
equal the difference In the cost OF pro-
ducton az home and abroad. We insist
upon the maintenance OF the principles
of protection and therefore rates OF
duty should be readjusted only when
conditions have so changed that the
rublic interest demands their sltera-
ton
CAN'T TRUST DEMOCRATS,
But this work can not safely be COM
mltted TO any other hands than those
OF the Republican party. To entrust II

MUST WORK FOR ROOSEVELT
NEIV FORK DELEGATToE-AT-
 LARGE so "DIRECTED.u

This Word Constdered Stronger Than
 s.Inssrncted,-P Piatt, Depesy, OdeiI and
 Black Chosen . The Alternatives-
 Platform strongly Endorscs the Ad- manifestation of President Roosevelt. New York, April 12.-The republican state convention in session to-day named as delegates-at-large and alter mates to the national convention at Chicago:
 Senator T. c. Platt; alternate, J. sloat Fassett.
 Senator c. M. Depew; alternate, Louis Stern.
 Governor B. B. odell; alternate. Bras tus c. Knight.
 Frank S. Black; alternate, Henry c. Brewster.
 The platform strongly endorses the administrations of President Theodore Roosevelt and Governnr B. B. Odeil, and the delegates at large to the na- tional convention are directed to use all honorable means to secure the nom- ination of Theodore Roosevelt
 There was some discussion over the fact that these "directions' included only the delegates at-large, but Gov ernor Odell explained that in this way:
 Since 1880 when we abandoned the plan of selecting the district delegates, the state convention has not, and in deed, cannot, instruct the district dele- gates Those delegates are elected and, | if desired by the home conventions, are instructed. This direction of the con vention to the delegates-at-large to se- cure MT. Rooseyelt's nomination is the strongest possible way in which the matter could be put up. The word 'dt- rected' is stronger than the word in structed.'
 Features of the convention were the several enthusiastic receptions given to Senator Thomas c. Platt, Governor Odell, and former Governor Frank s. Black, and the applause that followed mention of the name of President Roosevelt. The direction of the conven- tion to secure the presidents nomina- i tion was greeted with cheers ! Immediately after the adjournment the state committee elected Governor | Odell chairman.

RACE QUESTION AGAIN UP.
Cleveland Again Accused of Dining a
 Kansas Negro.

Washington, April 12.-The race question again was injected into the proceedings of the house of representa- tives to-day when Mir. Scott of Kansas delivered a long address, in which he referred to his previous statement that 1t was sulrent in Kansas that ex-Presi- dent Cleveland had dined c. H. J. Tay- Tor, a Kansas negro politician. He read several letters from Kansas citi- zens that 1t had been Taylors boast that he had received such social atten- tion from MT. Cleveland. He also said that MT. Cleveland while governor of New York had signed bill providing for mixed schools.
 In spirited reply MT. Williams of Mississippi, the minority leader, defend ed the attitude of the south toward the negro, and said that discussion of the race question by the republicans was an old game by which when the repub- lican party found itself confronted with issues that threatened it's supremacy it began to wave the bloody shirt
 At .he instance of MT. Bartlett of Georgia, letter from ex-President Cleveland was read, denying that he had ever dined a negro. Mir. Bartlett also declared Judge Parker of New York to be the man whom the demo- crats will nominate for president.

London. April 12.-The house of com mons reassembled to-day after the Easter recess. In anticipation of the opposition moving an adjournment in order to call attention to the blood shed in Tibet, an urgent whip was sent out by the government supporters.
