influence in restoring public conf

spread expectation of speedy return
of national prosperity.
''We indorse the great adminfstra
ton of President Roosevelt, and We
are proud he is republican from New
York. His work has exemplified the
principles of equity upon which this
government was founded and has pre-
scented a record of achievements
which give to him for all time pre-
eminence among the benefactors OF
the nation. His fearless and patriotic
treatment of all questions involving
our foreign relations has maintained
and increased respect for the Ameri-
can flag throughout the world.
with sound judgment and unfinch
ing courage he has entered upon the
solution of economic problems at home
and has earnestly labored to secure to
every individual, whether rich or poor
his constitutional guarantee ofsaequal
ity before the law. He has firmly op-
posed Entertainments of those corpora
lions which, by evasion of the law
would destroy individual opportunity
and has, with equal firmness, insisted
upon a square deal for all. His poll
cies are republican policies, and to
them we pledge our continued loyalty
and support. We believe in the i'm
partial enforcement of the law and the
rights of the individual in commercitl,
industrial and political affairs. We
believe that corporations which take
their right to exist from the authority
of the government should be under
regulation and supervision of the gov
eminent. But we are unequivocally
opposed to government Ownership of
such corporations.
I've believe in protection to Ameri-
can industries. That principle must
be maintained, but we approve of such
revision of tariff schedules as will pre-
vent injustice and inequalities by re
tanning customs duty which shall at
least equal the difference between the
cost of production at home and
abroad. We indorse and approve the
policy of congress in refusing to re-
wise the tariff piecemeal. We recon-
mend revision that shall maintain
the policy of the republican party, as
opposed to that of the democratic
party, that the tariff should sbe for
revenue only but first of all, for the
protection of the American wage earn
er, the manufacturer, the producer,
and the farmer, in the struggle against
foreign capital and labor for CONNER
cial and industrial supremacy.
We heartily indorse the growing
sentiment in favor of bestowing high
er educational advantages upon, the
negro and giving wider opportunities
to those who seek to improve their
condition and to win the recognition
their talents deserve. The republican
party has ever been the friend Of the
oppressed, and cannot forget the un-
swerving fidelity of the colored ras@
We believe in the upbuilding of
the American navy, speedy completion
of the Panama canal, development Of
the American merchant marine, i'm
provement of inland waterways, and
re-enactment of popular government
in the Philippines.
We commend the worldwide move
ment in favor of the settlement of all
international differences and also OF
all disputes between labor and CAPT
tai by peaceful and satisfactory meth
DDS of arbitration.
eve indorse the administration of
Gov. Charles E. Hughes. AS a chief
executive he has set an example OF
official courage and fidelity. Under his
administration the business of the
state has been SO transacted as tc

tion It has been carried on aconon-
ically and prudently. The public ser
vice has been upon a high plane.
In the settlement of these economic
questions in which the stale. indi.
yidual and corporation share in theil
rights and responsibility Governor
Hughes has striven to insure to each
an exact measure Of justice. His poll
cies and his acts have been laid be-
fore the people like an open book
Relying on his. devotion to the inter
ests Of American citizens and trusting
in his wisdom, his courage and his
craftsmanship, we instruct the dele
gates this day chosen to present his
name to the national republican con
vention to be held at Chicago, as New
York's candidate, and to use all hon
orable means to bring about his
