the duty of this country as next
friend to Mexico, its duty to other
powers who have relied upon us us
such friend and it's duty to our citi
zens in Mexico, in permitting the con-
tinuance of such conditions, first by
failure to act promptly and, second,
by lending its influence to the con-
tinuation of such conditions thru re-
cognition of one of the factions re-
sponsble for these outrages.
We pledge our aid in restoring
order and maintaining peace in Mex
leo. We promise to our citizens oil
and near our border, and to those in
Mexico, wherever they may be found
adequate and absolute protection in
their lives, liberty and property.
Monroe Doctrine.
We reaffirm our approval of the
Monroe Doctrine and declare its main
tenance to be policy of this coun-
try, essential to its present and
future peace and safety and to
achievement of its manifest destiny,
Latin America.
We favor the continuance of Re
publican policies, which will result in
drawing more and more closely the
commercial, financial and social re-
lations between this country and the
countries of Latin-America.
PhilippineS
We renew our allegiance to the
Philippine policy, inaugurated by Nc
Kinley, approved by congress and
consistently carried out by Roosevelt
and Taft. Even in this short time
it has enormously improved the ma
terial and social conditions of the
islands, given the Philippine people
a constantly increasing participation
in their government and, if persisted,
in will bring still greater benefits in
the future.
We accepted the responsibility of
the islands as duty to civilization
and the Filipino people. To leave
with our task half done would break
our pledges, injure our prestige
among nations and imperil what has
already been accomplished.
We condemn the Democratic ad-
ministration for its attempt to aban-
don the Philippines, which was pre-
vented only by vigorous opposition
of Republican members of congress.

We reiterate our unqualified ap
proval of the action taken in Decem-

Protection of Country
In order to maintain our peace and

AmeriCanism is
Paramount Issue
With Republicans

In 1861 the Republican party stood
for the union. As it stood for the
union of states, it stands for an united
people, true to American ideals, loyal
to American traditions, knowing no
allegiance except to the constitution
of the United States. We believe in
American policies at home and
abroad
American Rights
We declare that we believe in anil
will enforce the protection of every
American citizen in all the rights Sc :
cured to him by the constitution,
treaties, and the law of nations, Mt
home and abroad, by land and sea.
These rights, which in violation of
the specific promise of their party
made at Baltimore in 1912, the DEM
ocratic president and the Democratic
congress have failed to defend, we
will unflinchingly maintain.
Foreign Relations
We desire peace, the peace of just
ice and right, and believe in main
tanning straight and honest neu-
trality between the belligerents in
the great war in Europe. We must
perform all our duties and insist up
on our rights as neutrals without
fear and without favor.
We believe that peace and neutral
ity as well as the dignity and in
fluence of the United States cannot
be preserved by shifty expedients,
phrasemaking, by performances in
in language, or by attitudes ever
changing in an effort to secure
groups of voters. The present ad-
ministration has destroyed our in
fluence abroad and humiliated us in
our own eyes. The Republican party
believes that firm, consistant and
courageous foreign policy always
maintained by Republican presidents
in accordance with American tradi-
tions. is the best, as il is the only
true way to preserve our peace and
restore us to our rightful place among
the national conventions. We believe
the pacific settlement of international
disputes and favor the establishment
Of a worldcourt for that purpose.
Mexican
We deeply sympathizc with the l5-
100000 people of Mexico who for
three years have seen their country
dcvasted, their homes destroyed,
their fellow citizens murdered and
their women outraged, by armed
bands of deperadocs led by self-seea-
ing. conscienceless agitators who when
temporarily successful in any local
ity have neither sought nor been able
to restore order or establish and
maintain peace.
d. We express our horror and indig-
nation at the outrages which have
been and are being perpetrated by
these bandits upon American men and
women who were or are in Mexico
by invitation of the laws and Of the
government Of that country and whose
rights to security of person and prop
erty are guaranteed by solemn treaty
obligations. We denouncc the inde-
fensible methods of interference en-
ployed by this administration in the
internal affairs of Mexico and refer
with shame to its failure to discharge
