The Republicans ol the United States, assembled by their delegates in National convention, pause on the theshold of their proceedings to honor the memory of their first croat leader, the immortal champion of liberty and the riehts of the people Aluaham Lincoln; and to cover also with wreaths ofimperishablc remembrance and gratitude the heroic names of later leaders, who havo more recently been called away from our councils Grant, Uarheld, Arthur, Logan and Conkliug. May their memories be laithlully cher ished. We also recall with our greetings and with prayer for his recovery the name ol one of our living heroes whoso memory will be treasured in the history both of Republicans and of the Republic the name of that noble soldier and favorite son of victory, Philip II Sheridan. In thu spirit of those great leaders, and of our own devotion to human liberty, and with 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 Brazil upon their great act ol emancipation, which completed the abolition of slavery throughout the two American continents. Ve earnestly hope that we may soon congratulate our fellow citizens of Irish birth upon the peaceful recovery of homo rule for Ireland. We alhrni our unswerving devotion to tlio INitional (Jonbtitution and to the in dissoluble Union of the states : to the au tonomy reserved the states under tho Con stitution : to the personal rights and liber ties of citizens in all the States and Terri tories in the Union, and especially to tho supreme ami sovereign right of every lawlul citizen, rich or poor, nativo or foreign born, white or black, to cast ono free ballot u. public elections, and to have that ballot duly countod. We bold tho free and honest popular ballot, and the just and equal representation of all the people, to be the foundation of our republican government, and demand ef fective legislation to securn the integrity and purity of elections, which are the fountains of all public authority. We chargo that the present administration and tho Democratic majority in Congress owe their existence to the suppression of the ballot by a criminal nullification of the Constitution and laws of the United States. We are uncompromisingly in favor of the American system of protection. We protest npainet its destruction proposed by the president and his party. They servo the interests of Kmope; we will sepport Iho interests of America. We ac cept the issues and confidently appeal to the people for their judgment. The pro tective system musi be mainta'ncd. Its abandonment has always been followed by general disaster to all interests, except those of tho usurer and tlio sheriff. We denounce the Mills bill as destructive to thu general business, the labor and the fanning interests of the country, and we htartily endorse tho consistent and patriotic actions of the Republican Rep icsentatives in Congress in opposing its passage Wo condemn the proposition of the Demncratio parly to place wool on the free list, and we insist that the duties thereon shall be adjusted and maintained so as to furnish full and adequatu protection to that industry. The Republican party would effect a'l needed reduction of the National revenue by repealing tho taxes on tobacco, which areanannoyancoand burden to agriculture; ntul the tax upon spirits used in the arts ami for mechanical purposes; ami by such revision of thu tariff ns will lend to check imports of such articles a9 are produced by our neonle. thu nroduction of which uives ciupio)iiient to our labor, and release Irom import duties those aiticlesof loruign pro duction (except luxuries) the like of which can not liu produced at home. If there shall still remain a larger revenue that is requisite for the wants ol tho government we luvor the entire repeal of internal taxes rather ihan the surrender of any part of our protective system at thu joint behest of the whisky trusts and iho agents ot lorcign manutacturers. We declaro our hostility to the introduc tion into this country of foreign contract labor, and of Chinese labor, alien to our civilization aud our Coii'tilution, and we demand the rigid enforcement of the ex isting laws agaiust it, and favor such im mediate legislation as will exclude such labor from our shores. We declare our opposition to all combin ations ofcapital organized in trustsornther wiae, to control arbitrarily the condition of trade among our citizens, and wo com mend to Congress and to tho State Legis atiires, in their respective jurisdictions, uuh legislation as will prevent the execu tion of all schemes to oppress the people by undue charges on their supplios, or by un just rates for the transportation of their products to market. We approve the leg islation by Congress to prevent alike un just burdens and unfair discriminations be i ween the States. c tealhrm the policy of appropriating the public, lands of tho United Status to be homesteads for American citizeus and tat tlers, not alieus, which the Republican party established in 1S62, against tho persistent opposition of the Democrats in them, to form for themselves a constitution and Stato 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 citizen? of the Terriior) wherein they are to serve. South Dakota should of right be immediately admitted as a Stato in the Union, under the con stitution framed and adopted by the people, and we heartily indorse the action of the Republican Senate in twice passing bills for her admission. The refusal of the Democratic House of Representatives, for partisan purposes, to favorably consider these bills, s a willful violation of the sacred American principle of local self-government, and merits the condemnation of all just men. The pending bills in the Senate for acts to enable the people of Washington, North Dakota and Montana Territories to form constitutions should be passed without unnecessary delay. The republican party pledges itself to do all in its power to fa cilitate the admission of the territories of New Mexico, Woming, Idaho and Ari zona lo the enjoyment of self-government as states, such of them as are 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 in 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 where tho same is questioned, and in turtherance of that end to place upon the siaiuic uuuks legisiauuu stringent enougn to divorce the political from the ecclesias tical power, and thus stamp out the attendant wickedness of polygamy. Tho republican party is in favor of the use of both gold and silver as money, and condemns the policy of the democratic administration in its efforts to demonetize silver. We demand the reduction of letter postage to 1 cent per ounce. In a republic like ours, where the citizen is the sovereign and the official the servant, where no power is exercised except by the will ol the people, it is important that the sovereign the people should possess intelligence. The free school is the promoter of that intelligence wnicn is 10 preserve us a tree nation; thereforo, the state or nation, or both combined, should support free institutions of learning, sufficient to afford to every child growing up in the land the oppor tunity of a good common school edu cation. Wo earnestly recommend that prompt action be taken by Congress in tho en actment of such legislation as will bet secure the rehabilitation of our American merchant marine, and we protest acainst tho passage by Congress of a free ship bill, as calculated lo work injustice to labor by lessening the wages of those engaged in preparing materials, as well as those directly employed in our ship yards. We demand appropriations for the early .ebuilding of our navy; for the construction of coast fortifications and modern ordnpnee, and other appioved modern ineuns of defense for the piotec tion of our defenseless harbors and cities; lor the payment of just pensions to our soldiers; for necessary works of National importance in the improvement 01 harbors aud the channels of internal coastwise, and foreign commerce; for the encouragement of tho shipping interests of the Atlantic, Gulf and I'acihc States, as well as for the payment of the maturing public debt. This policy will kive em ployment to our labor, activity to our va rious industries, lucrease the security of our country, promote trade, open new and direct markets for . our produce, and cheapen the cost ol trau-portation. We atlirm this lo be fur better for our country than the democratic policy of loaning tho government money without interest to "pet banks." The conduot of foreign affairs by the present administration has been distin guished by its inefficiency and its coward ice. Having withdrawn from the Senate all ponding treaties effected by republican administration tor the removal of foreign burdens and restrictions upon our com merce and for its extension into better markets, it lias neither effected nor pro posed any others in their stead. Profess ing adherence to the Monroe doe'rine, it has seen with idle complacency the exten sion of foreign influence 111 Central Amnrica, aud of foreign trade everywhere among our neighbors. It has refused to charter, sanction or encourago any Amer ican organization for constructing the Nicaragua canal, a work ot vital import ance to the maiutenauce of the Monroe doctrine, and of our national nilluence in Central and South America, and neces sary for the development ol trade with our Pacific territory, with South America and with the islands and further coasts of the Pacific Ocean. 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 wisely and ettectively avoided. The gratitude of the nation to the de fenders of the union can not be measured bv 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 oosibi!ity 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 tor 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 in 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 ot all good government is the virtue and sobriety of the people and the purity 01 the home. the republican party cordially sympathizes with all wise and well directed efforts for the promotion of temperance and morality.
