The National League Declares for a Con-
 tinudnCe of the DingIey Tariff
It's Endorsement of Recent Legislation and Its Demand that Southern Representation in Congress be Made Proportionate to the Southern Vote.

Philadelphia, June 19.-Reaffirnine allegiance to the prime pie of the re- publican party and condemning com binations in restraint of trade. the National League of Republican clubs today ended its convention. The reso- lutions adopted are in part as follows:
 we pay tribute to our great leaders rom our first standard bearer, John C. Fremont. and Abraham Lincoln the first republican president to Theodore Roosevelt, our present leader. the worlds first citizen who, through his rugged honesty. his persistent determi- nation, his unflagging courage and his demand Tor square deal for every person and every interest, has gained nor only the respect and love of his fel- Iowcountrymen, but the esteem and ad- miration of all mankind
 We endorse the sentiment of Will liam Mckinley that the principle of protective tariff is sacred. but that schedules should be changed when con ditions of industry, commerce and fi- nance demand, and not till then.
 %We emphasize the results of the op- eration of the Dingley tariff which is giving us surplus of revenue; unpar- alleled activity in our factories. forests and mines; profitable prices for the products of our farms, greater bank clearings, and relatively less failures than before;s a continually larger vol une or employment at higher wages. resulting in unprecedented consump- tion of not only necessaries but the comforts, conveniences and luxuries of life. augmented with larger savings and Investments than have previously been recorded in our history.
 We approve of the action of the present congress in carrying out the recommendations of President Roose- Net oy more advanced legislation than has been given us in single session since the days of the civil war.
 We have just pride in our party's record: in its settlement of the eur Tency question through the adoption of the gold standard; in the establishment and development of the rural free de- hVery system, now extended to more than 3O,O00 routes and eight millions or homes; in the progress made fin the opening of our arid lands to cultiya ton through irrigation :; in the we'll be- gun work of connecting ocean and ocean with an Isthmian canal: in the many laws looking to the welfare of labor and in the completed or pending legislation providing for equitable rail- road regulation in interstate com merce; for the better inspection of all food products; for free alcohol for a new state; for an American merchant marine and the many other important measures which have been and are to be considered
 We are opposed to all illegal com ninations in restraint of trade, whereby the interests of either producers or consumers are injured or whereby. through monopoly rates and prices of products are controlled at the expense Of the masses, We wage no war on capital or corporations as such. but we do ask for equity and justice to all by all
 We are opposed to the mentality which permits one-twelfth of the vot- CTS of the country to wield one quarter or the national legislative power. The suppression and denial of suffrage de- mand the reduction of power so usurp- ed and the denial of suffrage should never be rewarded with political prem | lums. The democracy of at least eIev- | en states should be deprived of its un- | talr preponderance of power, and the tull measure of political rights secur- cd 10 every qualified citizen, white or
