Tho Kcpublicans ol the United States, aasembled by their delegatci iu National convention, pause on the theshold of their proceedings to honor the memory of their first great leader, the immortal champion of liberty and the rights of the people- Abraham Lincoln; and to cover also with wreaths of imperishable remembrance and gratitude the heroic names of later leaders, who have more recently been called away from our councils Grant, Garfield, Arthur, Logau and Conkliug. May their memories bo faithfully clier uheil. We'also recall with our greetings and with prayer for his recovery the name ol one of our living heroes whose memory will bo treasured in the history both of Republicans and of the Republic the name of that noble soldier and favorite son of victory, Philip II Shetidan. In the spirit of those great leaders, and of our own devotion to human liberty, and wiin that hostility to all forms of despot ism and oppression which is the funda mental idea of the Republican party, we send fraternal congratulations to our fel low Americans of Uraiil upon their great act ol emancipation, which completed the abolition of slavery throughout the two American continents. Vo earnestly hope that He, may soon congratulate our fellow citizens of Irish birth upon the peaceful recovery of home rule for Ireland. We affirm our unsweriing devotion to tho National Constitution and to the in- dissoluble Union of the states : to the au tonomy reserved the states under the Con stitution : to the personal lights and liber. tic? ot citizens in all the stales and terri tories in the Union, and especially to tho supreme ami sovereign right of every lawful citizen, rich or poor, nativo or foreign horn, white or black, to cast ono freo ballot H. public elections, and to have that ballot duly counted. We hold tho free and honest popular ballot, and the just and equal representation of all the people, to be the foundatiou of our republican government, and demand ef fective legislation to sccurn the integrity and purity of cloctions, which are the fountains of all public authority. We charga that the present administration and the Democratic majority in Congress owe their existence to tho suppression of the ballot by a criminal nullification of the Constitution and laws of tho United States. Wo are uncompromisingly in favor ol thf American system of protection. We protest against its destruction proposed by tlio president and his party. They servo the interests of Europe; wo will sepport tho interests of America. We ac cept tho issues and confidently appeal to the people for their judgment. The pro tuctivu s)8tcm must be maintained, Its nbiindomneiit has always been followed by general disaster to all interests, except thoso of tho usurer and tho sheriff. Wo denounce the Mills bill an destructive to tho general business, tho labor and the fanning interests of tho country, and we heartily endorso tho consistent and patriotic actions of the Republican Rep resentatives in Congress iu opposing its paHtago. Wo condemn the proposition of the Democratto parly to place wool on the free list, and we insist that the duties thereon shall bo adjusted and maintained so as to furnish full and adequate protection to that industry. the Iiepubltcan party would STOCK FARM FOR SALE or RENT I -530 ACRES Well MHtotvd tnd phmty ol flutter.

If there Uiall still remain a larger icveuue that is requisite for the wants ot tho government u favor tho entire repeal of internal taxes rather than the surrender of any part of our protective system at tho joint behest of the whisky ttusts and ihu agents of foreign manufacturers. We declare our hostility to the introduc tion into this country of foreigu contract labor, and of Chinese labor, alien to our civilization and our constitution, and we demand the rigid rnforceiueiit of the ex. isting laws against It, and favor such Im mediate legislation us will exclude such labor from our shores. We declare our opposition to all combin ations of capital orgauized in trusts or other wise, to control arbitrarily the condition ol wade among our citizens, and we com mend to Congress and to tho State Legis. attires, iu their respective jurisdictions, suo.li legislation as will prevent the execu tion of all schemes to oppress the people by undue charges on their supplies, or by un just ratos for the transportation of their products to market. We approve the leg. islatiou by Congicsa to prevent alike un just burdens and unfair ditcrimlnations be tween the States. We icxffirm the policy of appropriating the publlo lands of tho Uuiled States to bo homestead lor American citizens and set tlers, not aliens, which iho Republican party established In S6i, ngaiust tho jiersisteut opposition of the Democrats in Congress, and w liich has brought our great Western domain into such magnificent development, Tha testoiation of iinearn. est land grants to the public domain for tho use of actual settlors, which was beuuu unucr die ajminitttatlou ot i'restdebt Ar- Ansae. atlthfttfl Iia a.iiIih.,.! HVl ta. iL. s iwnuMiu ; vumiiiucu, it ciicuy mat emocraticuity hasetet restored, one aero to the twople, but declare that by the joint action of icpublicaus and democrats, about fifty millions ol acres of unearned lands originally granted for the construc tion of ralltoada have been rostoicd to the public domain, in minuaue: of tho coudi. lions inserted by the republican parly in mo original gums, wo charge the dein coratic administiation with fiilute to exe cute the laws securing to settler tides to their homesteads, and with using appro, liatious made for that purpose to harass innocent settlers with spies and proseou. tlous under false pretence of exposing frauds and vindicating the taw. The government by Congress ol the Territories It based, upon necessity only, to the end that they may become SUUs In the Uuiont therefore .whenever the con. dltions of population, material resources. puuiic inveiiige&ce ana morally are such at to seouio a stable leeal povernmmt therein, the people of such Territories I should be permitted, u aright inherent i' them, to form for themselves a constitution and State government, and be admitted into the Union. Pending the prepara tion for Statehood, all officers '.hereof should be selected from the bona fide residents and citizens ot the Territory wherein they are to serve. South Dakota should of right bo immediately admitted as a State in the Union, under the con stitution framed and adopted by the people, and we heartily indoise the action of the Republican Senate in twice passing bills for her admission. The refusal of the Democratic House of Representatives, for paitisan purposes, to favorably consider these bills, $ a willful violation of the sacred American principle of local self-government, and merits the condemnation of all just men. TtK pending bills in the Senate for acts to enable the people of Washington, North Dakota and Montana Territories to form constitutions should be passed twthoul unnecessary delay. The republican party pledges itself to do all in its power to fa cilitate the admission of the territories of New Mexico, Wyoming, Idaho and Ari zona to the enjoyment of self-got einment as states, such of them as pre now Quali fied, as soon as possible, and the others as soon as they may become so. Tho political power of the Mormon church in the territories, as experienced iu the past, is a menace to free institutions too dangerous to be long suffered. There fore wo pledge the republican party to ap propriate legislation asserting the sover eignty of the nation in all territories vhcre the same is questioned, and in furtherance of that end lo place upon the statute books legislation stringent enough to divorce the political from the ecclesias tical pqwer, and thus stamp out the attendant wickedness of polygamy. Tho republican party is in favur of the use of both cold and silver as money, and condemns the policy of the democratic administration in its efforts to demonetize silver. Wo demand the reduction of letter postage to I cent per ounce. In a republic like ours, where the citizen is the sovereign and the official the servant, whero no power is exercised except by the will of the people, it Is important that the sovereign the people should possess intelligence. The free school is the promoter of that intelligence which is to preserve us a free nation; therefore, the state or nation, or both combined, should support free institutions ot learning, sullicient to nllord to every child growing up in the land the oppor tunity of a good common school edu cation. We earnestly recommend that prompt action be taken by Congress in the en- act m en t of such legislation ns will bet secure the rehabilitation of our American merchant marine, and we protest against tho passage by Congress of a free ship imi, as calculated to work injustice to labor by lessening the wages of those engaged in preparing maienals, as well as those directly employed in our ship yards. We demand appropriations for the early .obuildiug of our navy; for the construction of coast fortifications and modern ordn.-uce, and other approved modern means of defense for the protec tion of our defenseless harbors and cities; tor the payment of just pensions to our soldiers; for necessary works of .National importance in the improvement of harbors and the channels of internal coastwise, and foreign commerce; for the encouragement of tho shipping interests of the Atlantic, Gulfaud Pacific States, as well as for the payment of the maturing public debt. This policy will give em ployment to our labor, uclivity to our va rious industries, lucreuse the security of our country, promote trado, open new and direct markets for our produce, and cheapen the cost of transportation. We nllirm this lo be far better for our country than the democratic policy of loaning tho government money without interest to "pet banks." The conduct of foreign affairs bv tlio present administration has been distin guished by its inefficiency and its coward ice. Having withdrawn from the Senate all peuding treaties effected by republican administration for the removal of foieigu burduus and restrictions upon our com merce nnd for its extension into better markets, it has neither eflected nor pro posed any others in their stead. Profess ing adherence to tho Monroe docirjne, it has seen with idle complacency the exten sion of foreign influence in Central America, and of foreign trade everywhere among our neighbors. It has refused to charier, sanction or encourage any Amer ican organization for constructing the Nicaragua canal, a work ot vital import ance to the maintenance of the Monroe doctrine, and of our national influence in Central and South America, and neces ary for the development ol trade with our Pacific territory, with South America and with the islands and further coasts of the Pacific Ocean. We airaigu the present democratic ad ministration for its weak and unpatriotic treatment of the fisheries question, and its pusillanimous surrender of the essen tial privileges to which our fishing vessels are entitUd in Canadian porta under the treaty of iSlS, the reciprocal maritime legislation of I830, and tho comity of nations, ana wnicn Canadian tishing ves sels receive in the ports of tho United States. We condemn the policy of the piesent administration and the democratic majority iu Congress inward our fisheries as uuliiendly and conspicuously unpatri otic, aud at tending to destroy a valuable national mdustry, aud an indispensable resource ol defense against a foreign enemy. Tho name of America applies alike to all cititeus of the republic, and imposes upon all alike the same obligations of obedience to the laws. At the samo time that citizenship is and must be the nan. oplv and safeguard of him who wean it, and protect him, whether high or low, rich or poor, in his civil rights. It should ana must afford him protection at home, and follow and protect him abroad in whatever land be may be on a lawful eirand. grades of the service to which it is applic able. The spirit and purpose of the re form should be observed in all executive appointments, and all laws at variance with the object of existing reform legisla tion should be repealed, to the end that the danger to free institutions which lurks in the power of official patronage may be wmely and effectively avoided. The gratitude of the nation to the de fenders of the union can not be measured by laws. The legislation of Congress should conform to the pledges made by a loyal people, and be so enlarged and ex tended as to provide against the oossibility that any man who honorably wore the federal uniform shall become the inmate of an almshouse, or dependent upon private charity. In the presence of an overflowing treasury it would be a public scandal to do less for those whose valor ous service preserved the government. We denounce the hostile spirit shown by President Cleveland in his numerous vetoes of measures for pension relief, and the action of the democratic house of representatives iu refusing even a consid eration of general pension legislation. In support of the principles herewith enunciated we invite the co-operation of patriotic men of all parties, and especially of all workingmen whose prosperity is seriously threatened by the free trade policy of the present administration. Additional plank submitted by Mr. Boutelle of Maine, and adopted by an almost uuanimous vete: The first con cern of all good government is the virtue and sobriety of the people and the puiity of the home. The republican party cordially sympathizes with all wise and well directed efforts for the promotion of temperance and morality. JJQQTS 2iJi SIIOK3 WIKI. BROWN & CO.
