Chicago, June s.-The Progressive
platform, with its principal planks de-
voted TO an exposition Of Americanism,
preparedness, protection and woman
suffrage, was laid before the Progress
sive convention to-day. 1t was received
with enthusiasm that presaged its
adoption with but little II any change,
and was made the unfinished business
when the convention recessed tonight
TO allow It's conferrees to discuss peace
plans with the Republicans.
The platform as submitted 20 the
convention differs somewhat from the
tentative draft published to-day, sew
erai additional planks having been
added. The following was inserted
after the discussion Of the corner
stones Of civilization:
1--WE earnestly desire TO keep the
peace, but there are higher things
which we must keep II we would keep
the faith az Washington and Lincoln
kept II. Peace at the price of submits
sion and cowardlce is not desirable,
nor is IL the peace Of justice, which
alone would make il permanent Supine
submission TO the invasion of our
rights or indifference TO the wrongs OF
weaker nations will not long maintain
peace, nor will mere threat Of action
enforce our rights under international
law.
Must Defend Our Rights.
"There must be an unfaltering de-
termination and a personal ability to
defend our rights and 70 fulfil our In
ternationA obligations. In such a
readiness lies the suro safeguard Of
both national honor and continued
peace,
Failure to deal firmly and promptly
with the menace Of Mexican disorders
has brought conditions worse than
warfare and has weakened our national
self-respect- Every resource Of gov
eminent should forthwith be used 10
end those conditions and protect from
outrage the lives, honor and property

Business =.

The Republican party has long be-
lieved In the rigid supervision and
strict regulation of the transportation
and great corporations Of the country.
Il has put its creed into its deeds and
oil really effective laws regulating the
railroads and the great industrial cor
porations are the work of Republican
Congresses and Presidents. For this
policy Of regulation and supervision
the Democrats, In a stumbling and
piecemeal way arc undertaking 10 In
volve the government in business
which should be left within the sphere
of private enterprise and in direct
competition with its own citizens, a
policy which is sure TO result in waste,
great expense 10 the taxpayer and in
an inferior product.
The Republican party firmly be-
lieves that all who violate the laws
in regulation Of business should
be Individually punished. But
prosecution Is very different from
persecution, and business success,
no matter how honestly attained,
is apparently regarded by the
Democratic party as in itself
crime.
Such doctrines and beliefs choke en-
terprise and stife prosperity. The Re
publican party believes in encouraging
American business, as it believes in all
that will seek TO advance all American
interests.

We condemn tho gross abuse and

Territorial Matters.
Reafirming the attitude long main

Tariff.
The Republican party stands
now. as always, In the fullest
sense for the policy Of tariff pro-
lection TO American Industries and
American labor, and does not re-
Qard an anti-dumping provision as
an adequate substitute. Such pro-
lection should be reasonable In
amount. but sufficient to protect
adequately American industry and
American labor, and be so adjusted
as TO prevent undue exactions by
monopolles or trusts. IL should,
moreover, give special attention TO
occurring the industrial indepen-
dence Of the United States as In
the case OF dyestuns.
Through wise tariff and Industrial
legislation our Industries can be 80
organized that they will become not
only commercial bulwark, but q
powerful aid 20 national defence.
The Underwood tariff act Is com
pleto failure in every respect Under
It's administration imports have enor-
mously increased In spite OF the tact
that the intercourse with foreign
countries has been largely cut OF by
reason OF the war. while the revenues,
of which we stand In such dire need
have been greatly reduced.
Under the normal conditions which
prevailed prior 70 the war II was
clearly demonstrated that this act de-
prived the American producer and the
American wage Garner Of that protec-
tion which entitled them 70 meet their
foreign competitors, and but for the
adventurous conditions created by the
war would long since have parslyzed
all forms OF American industry and
deprived American labor OF Its Just
reward.

vanced from the date Of It's enactment
The welfa.e of our people demands IT'S
repeal and the substitution of meas
ure which IN peace as well as In wal
will produce ample revenue and give
reasonable protection 10 all forms o.
American production in mine, forest

We favor the creation Of tariff
commission with complete power to
gather and compile information for
the use of Congress in all matters
relating to the tariff.

Merchant Marine.

In view Of the policies adopted by all
the maritime nations TO encourage their
shipping interests, and In order to en-
able us to compete with them for the
ocean carrying trade, we favor the pay
ment to ships engaged In the foreign
trade OF liberal compensation for ser
vices actually rendered in carrying the
mails, and such further legislation as
will build up an adequate American
merchant marine and give US ships
which may be requisitioned by the gov
eminent in time Of national emergency.
We are utterly opposed to the
government ownership of vessels
as proposed By the Democratic
party, because. aforementioned
ships, while effectively preventing
the development of the American
merchant marine by private capital,
will be entirely unable to provide
Tor the vast volume of American
freights and will leave us more
helpless than ever in the hard grip
of foreign syndicates.
