our commerce. 1t has been liberal in
making provision for the improve
ments of our harbors and rivers. 1t
stands ready to make such further
improvements as our national inter-
ests shall require
While the tariff question is an old
one, it is of continual and vital inter-
est. 1t must not be overthrown or sur
rendered either by ignorance or by
prejudice; it must be maintained by
education. by intelligent discussion.
The Republican party has revised
tariff schedules in the past, when re-
vision was essential, and it will not
hesitate in the future to subject them
to careful scrutiny and alteration, so
that our protective system may be
just in its operation. Whenever
change of schedules is essential in the
public interest, the alteration will be
made; it will be made advisedly, il
will be made with full knowledge, not
in response to mere sentiment, but
agreeably to sound economic necessi-
ty. Any other policy is obviously I'M
wise and disturbing in its tendency.
The Republican party adheres to
the doctrine of commercial reciprocity,
that reciprocity which tends to ex-
pand our. commerce and to develop
American industry in the interest of
American labor and American capital
1t hol to that reciprocity which is
the .hand-maiden" of protection, but
not to that which is but another form
of free trade. and which is hostile to
the protective system.
President Mckinley has been quoted
by the enemies of protection as favor
ing the Democratic system of reciproc-
ity. The text of his last great speech
gives denial to such pretensions. His
utterances were entirely free from am
biguity. No one could misunderstood
them who did not desire to do so. He
distinctly favored sensible trade ar
rangements which will not interrupt
our home production" I'VE should
take from our customers" said he
such of their products as we can
use without harm to our industries and
labor" And he further declared that,
IF perchance some of our tariffs are
no longer needed for revenue. or to
encourage and protect our industries
at home. why should they not be en-
ployed to extend and promote our
markets abroad?"
1t will be observed that he kept well
in mind the home market and protec-
ton to our industries and labor.

(Speech of Hon. c. W. Fairbanks at
the Dinner of the Home Market club,
Boston, Dec. 1, 1000
We have sought to build up the
home market first and thereafter Sc
cure a fair share of the markets
abroad We have believed that in or
der to command foreign markets we
must have strength enough to control
our own.
We have witnessed its rapid in
crease under the stimulating effect of
the protective policy enunciated in the
platform adopted at Chicago forty
four years ago. We have seen the
value of all manufactures in the
United States increase from less than
$2,OOO,OOO.OOO to more than $4,000
600, 900 in the period of thirty years
preceding the last national census
We have observed our total manufac-
lures rise until they are but little less
than the manufactures of the United
Kingdom, Germany and France com
bined.
The expansion of our foreign com
merce under Republican policy and Re-
publican administration is conclusive
evidence of the fact that Republican
policies are not restrictive so far as
our foreign trade is concerned In
1860 our exports of manufactured
products to other countries amounted
to only $1O2 .OOO 900, while last year
they reached the enormous sum of
1852, 100000. 1t would seem the part
of wisdom to hold fast to those meas
ures and that administration of pub
lie affairs under which such gratifying
and unparalleled results have been
accomplished.
The Republican party has wisely de-
voted itself to the promotion of all
those measures which tend to expand
Western Kansas world. [volume] (WaKeeney, Kan.) 1885-current, 1905-01-14

There is in these observations no sug-
gestion of the abandonment by him of
the great policy for which he lived
and wrought so we'll There is to be
found here no evidence of any pur-
pose upon his part to yield the home
market in the delusive hope of pos
sessing foreign markets which would
compensate for the loss. -
A great responsibility rests upon
the Republican party. 1t is not over
awed by it, yet fully realizes its signifi-
canoe. 1t has always had the courage
and wisdom to meet the responsibility
laid upon it by the American people
We realize that all of the great prob
lens of government have not been
solved; that there are many awaiting
us in the future which will tax our
patriotism and our capacity to govern.
The Republican party faces the flu
ture with a full appreciation of all of
this, and with a high resolve to meet
present and future responsibility with
the sole purpose to advance to the ut
most degree the welfare. the honor and
the glory of our countrymen and our
common country.
The result of the recent national
election needs no interpreter. 1t plain
ly signifies that the people have I'M
abated faith in the great principles for
which the Republican party has
wrought SO well. 1t clearly indicates
exceptional confidence in the sound
ness and conservatism of Republican
administration. The power committed
to us is to be used with prudence.
We are to continue to adhere to and
uphold the great policies which have
so well served us in the past. They
are not to be undermined OF subvert-
ed; they are to be upheld and main
tanned with wisdom and resolution.
