REPUBLICAN NATIONAL PLATFORM.
The republicans of the United States
through their chosen representatives met
in National convention, looking back upon
au unsurpassed record of achievement, and
S©* looking forward luto a great field of duty
pfeiand opportunity, and appealing to the
adjudgment of their countrymen, mnke these
|®Uf declarations:
if-j'ji'. The expectation ~In which the American
people, turning from the democratic party,
intrusted gower four years ago
unemployed.
IMstevv-.v The democrats' had no other plan with
which to Improve the ruinous conditions
which they had themselves produced, than
feivi ',' to coin silver at the ratio of 16 to 1. The
republicun party, denouncing this plan as
sure to produce conditions even worse than
-,'vtbose from which relief was sought, prom
iacd to restore prosperity by means of two
legislative measures—a protective tariff
£.- •.4 and a law making gold the standard of
value. The people by great majorities ts
sued to the republican party a commission
Vik: to enact these laws.
«ao5*-: This commission has been executed, and
the republican promise is redeemed. Pros
perity more general and more abundant
than we have ever known has followed
".7v these enactments. There is no longer
controversy as to the value of any govern
i- ment obligation. Every American dollar
.» is a gold dollar or its assured equivalent,
and American credit stands higher than
that of any other nation. Capital is fully
employed and everywhere labor is profit
ably occupied.
S' the rates of interest we favor such mone
tary legislation as will enable the varying
•it1? Ai needs of the season and of all sections to
be promptly met In order that trade may be
Aa- evenly sustained, labor steadily employed
'•1 and commerce enlarged. The volume of
money in circulation was never so great
per capita as it Is today.
We declare our steadfast opposition to
the free and unlimited coinage of silver.
No measure to that end could be consid­
ered without the support of the leading
commercial countries of the world. ££ow
', e\er firmly republican legislation may seem
to have secured the country against the
peril of base and discredited currency, the
election of a democratic president could
not fall to impair the country's credit and
to bring once more into question the inten
i, tion of the American people to maintain
upon the gold standard the parity of their
'money's circulation. The democratic
party must be convinced that the American
people will never tolerate the Chicago plat-,
form.
J* THE TRUST QUESTION.
We recognize the necessity and proprie­
ty of the honest co-operation of capital to
meet new business conditions and espe­
cially to extend our rapidly increasing for­
eign trade, but we condemn all conspira­
cies and combinations intended to restrict
j, business, to create monopolies to limit
production or to control prices and favor
such legislation as will effectually restrain
and prevent all such abuses,, protect and
promote competition and secure the rights
of producers, laborers and. all who are en­
gaged in industry and commerce.

to a re-
f1 i, publican chief magistrate and a republican
iwv congress, has been met and satisfied. When
ffslra^the people then assembled at the iolls,
after' a term of democratic legislation and
administration, business .was dead, lndus
if%s:s :trv paralyzed and the national credit dis
as'trously impaired. The country's capital
was hidden and its labor distressed and
No single fact can more strikingly tell
fe' r. the story of what republican government
fe '..-' -5. means to the country than this—that
0 while during the whole period of 107 years
from 1790 to 189J, there was an excess of
exports over Imports of only $383,028,497,
there has been In the short three years of
pg:
the present republican administration an
excess of exports over imports In the enor-
moils sum of $1,483,537,094.
THE WAR.
And while the American people, sus
talned by this republican legislation, have
1 been achieving these splendid triumphs in
r# /, their business and commerce, they have
conducted and In victory concluded a war
j.'- for liberty and human rights. No thought
of national aggrandizement tarnished the
high purpose with which American stand
avfi'v-arils were unfurled. It was a war un
igx. sought and patiently resisted, but when it
psS.'feiKcame the American government was ready.
fleets were cleared for action. Its
jSV-^ssir^urmles were in the field, and the quick and
signal triumph of Its forces on land and
^if&^ss^sea bore equal tribute to the courage of
American soldiers and sailors, and to the
skill and foresight of republican statesman
Kvshlp. To ten millions of the human race
there was given "a new birth of free
'dom" and to the American people a new
sand noble responsibility.
We indorse the administration of WH
11am McKinley. Its acts have been estab
i.'n lished In wisdom and'in patriotism, and at
x" home and abroad it has distinctly elevated
and extended the Influence of the Amer­
ican nation. Walking untried paths and
facing unforseen responsibilities, President
McKinley has been In every situation the
true American patriot and the upright
statesman, clear in vision, strong in judg
ment, firm in action, always inspiring and
&a. deserving the confidence of his country
|pt$4nien.
j^, DEMOCRATS AS A MENACE,-
1
In asking the American people to in
'dorse this republican record and to renew
their commission to the republican party,
we remind them Of the fact that the men
5 ace to their prosperity has always resided
in democratic principles and no less in the
.-.general Incapacity of the democratic party
to conduct public affairs. The prime es
^-sentlal of business prosperity is public con
fidence In the good sense of the govern
ment and in its ability to deal Intelligently
with each new problem of. administration
UsTf, and legislation. That confidence the dem
0 ocratic party has never earned. It is hope
rfv lessly inadequate and the country's pros
perity, when democratic success at the
polls is announced, halts and ceases in
mere anticipation of democratic blunders
^and failures.
,f THE GOLD STANDARD.
We renew our allegiance to the principles
g* fj of the gold standard and declare our con
V' fidence in the wisdom of the legislation of
yVv the fifty-sixth congress by which the
parity of all our money and the stability
r,\tf-v of our currency on a gold basis has been
,,x secured. We recognize rhat interest rates
Imt.Ti are a potent factor in production and bus
4™, iness activity, and for the purpose of fur
ther equalizing and of further lowering
THE POLICY OP PROTECTION,
We renew our faith in the policy of
protection to American labor. In that
policy our industries have been established,
diversified and maintained. By protecting
the home market the competition has been
stimulated and production cheapened. Op
portunity to the inventive genius of our
vpeople has been secured and wages in every
department of labor maintained at high
rates, higher now than ever before, always
distinguishing our working people in their
better conditions of life from those of any
.j competing country. Enjoying the blessings
of American Common schools, secure In the
right of self-government and protected in
& the occupancy of their own markets, their
constantly Increasing knowledge and skill
have eBabled them finally to enter the mar-
\:M ket?
of The world. We favor the associated
-"IaJ- policy of reciprocity, so directed as to open
„i onr markets on larotable terms for what
ib we do not ourselves produce in return for
•'4 free foreign markets.
,K IN THE INTERESTS OF LABOR.
In the further interest of American
worfcingmen, we favor a more effective re
strlction of the immigration of cheaper
labor from foreign lands, the extension of
opportnnltles of education for working
children, the raising of the age limit for
child labor, the protection of free labor, as
against contract convict labor, and as
effective system of labor insurance.
RESTORATION OF OUR SHIPPING IN-
DUSTR.Y.
Onr present dependency npon foreign
shipping for nine-tenths of our foreign car­
rying is a great loss to the Industry of this
country. It is a sedons danger to onr
trade for its sudden withdrawal in the
event of ,European war would seriously
cripple oar expanding foreign commerce.
The national defenses and the naval effi­
ciency of this country, moreover, supply a
compelling reason for legislation which will
enable us to recover onr former
among the trade-carrying fleets o:
•V THE PENSION PLANS?.
3%* nation owes a debt of profound grat­
itude to the soldiers and sailors who have
fonght its battles, and it is the govern­
ment's duty to provide for the survivors
and for the widows and orphans of those
who hare fallen in the country's wan.
pension laws. 'Jtounded in this jtsst sen-
timent, should be liberal, and should be
liberally administered and preference
should be given wherever practicable with,
respect to employment In the public service
to soldiers and sailors and to their widows
and orphans.
AN EFFICIENT CIVIL SERVICE.
We commend the policy of the republican
party in maintaining' the efficiency of the
civil service. The'administration has act­
ed wisely in its eftort to secure for public
service lh Cuba,. Porto Rico, Hawaii and
the Philippine Islands only those whose fit­
ness has been determined by training, and
experience. We believe tliat employment
In the public service in these 'territories
should be confined as far as practicable to
their inhabitants.
It was the plain purpose of the fifteenth
amendment to the constitution to prevent
discrimination on account of race or color
in regulating the elective franchise. De­
vices of state governments, whether stat­
utory or constitutional enactment, to avoid
the purpose of this amendment, are revo­
lutionary and should be condemned.
GOOD ROADS.
Public movements looking to a perma­
nent Improvement of the roads and high­
ways of the country meet with our cordial
approval and we recommend this subject to
the earnest consideration of the people and
the legislatures of the several states.
We favor the extension of the rural free
delivery service wherever Its extension may
be justified.
ARID LANDS.
Ih'.further pursuance of the constant pol­
icy of the republican party to provide free
homes on the public domain,, we recom­
mend adequate national legislation to re­
claim the arid lands of the United States,
reserving control of ITie distribution of wa­
ter for Irrigation to the respective states
and territories.
We favor home rule for and the early
admission to statehood of the territories of
New Mexico, Arizona and Oklahoma.
A REDUCTION OF WAR TAXES.
The Dingley act amended to provide'suf­
ficient revenue for the conduct of the war
has so well performed its work that it has
been possible to reduce the war. debt in
the sum of $40,000,000. So ample are the
government's revenues, and so great Is the
public confidence in' the integrity of Its ob­
ligations that its newly funded 2 per cent
bonds sell at a premium. The country Is
now justified In expecting and it will be
the policy of the republican party to bring
about a reduction of the war taxes.
TRADE EXPANSION.
We favor the construction, ownership,
control and protection of an isthmian canal
by the government of the United States.
New markets are necessary for the In­
creasing surplus of our. farm products.
Every eftort should be made to open and
obtain new markets, especially In the ori­
ent, and the administration Is warmtv to
be commended for its successful effort to
commit all trading and colonizing nations
through the policy of the open door in
China. In Interest of our expanding com­
merce, we recommend that congress create
a department of commierce and Industries
In the charge of a secretry with a seat in
the cabinet. The consular system should
be reorganized under the supervision of
this new department upon such a basis of
appointment and tenure as will render It
still more serviceable to the nation's In­
creasing trade.
The American government must protect
the person and property of every citizen
wherever they are wrongfully violated or
placed In peril.
We congratulate the women of America
upon their splendid record of public service
in the volunteer aid association and the
nurses In camp and hospital during the re­
cent campaigns of our armies in the east­
ern and western Indies, and we appreciate
their faithful co-operation lh all works of
education and Industry.
President McKinley has conducted the
foreign affairs of the United States with
distinguished credit to the American peo­
ple. In releasing the United States from
the grievous conditions of a European al­
liance for tne government of Samoa his
course is especially to be commended. By
his securing to onr undivided control the
most important island of the Samoan group
and the best harbor In the southern Pacific
every American Interest has been safe^
guarded.
Wis approve the annexation of the Ha­
waiian Islands to the United States.
We commend the part taken by our gov­
ernment In the peace conference at the
Hague. We assert our steadfast adherence
to the policy announced In the Monroe doc­
trine.
The provisions of the Hague convention
were wisely regarded when President Mc­
Kinley tendered his friendly offices in the
interest of peace between Great Britain
and the South African republic.' While the
American government must continue the
policy prescribed by Washington, affirmed
by every succeeding president and Imposed
upon ns by the Hague treaty of non-lnter
vention in European controversies, the
American people earnestly hope that a way
may soon be found, honorably alike to both
contending parties, to terminate the strife
between them.
In accepting by the treaty of Paris the
jnst responsibility of our victories in the
Spanish war, the president and the senate
won the undoubted approval of the Ameri­
can people. No other course was possible
than to destroy Spain's sovereignty
throughout the western Indies and in the
Philippine islands.
That course created our responsibility
before the world, and with the unorganized
population whom our intervention had
freed frsm Spain, to provide for the main­
tenance t»f law and order, and for the es­
tablishment of good government and for
the performance of International obliga­
tions. Our authority could not be less than
our responsibility and wherever sovereign
rights were extended it became the high
duty of the government to maintain its au­
thority, to put down armed insurrection
a,n(l
to confer the blessings of liberty and
civilization upon all the rescued peoples.
The largest measure of self-goreTfiment
consistent with their welfare and our du­
ties shall be secured to them by law. To
Cuba Independence and self-government
were assured in the same voice by which
war was declared, and to the letter this
pledge shall be performed.
The republican party, upon Its history
and upon this declaration of Its principles
and policies confidently invokes the con­
siderate and approving judgment of the
American people. •.

O Codes of 1895 is followed, O
O as some of the plates of O
O that edition are-used in the O

licit the continuance of the pat­

cially my friends in the Dakota^
