The Republicans ol the Unjtecl States,
aasembled by their delegates in Natioual
convention, pause on the theshold of their
proceedings to honor the memory of their
first great leader, the immortal champion
of liberty and the riulits of the people
Abiaham Lincoln; and to cover also
with wiealhi ofimperishahle remembrance
and gratitude tho heroic names of later
leaders, who havo more recontly been
called away from our councils Grant,
Oartield, Arthur, Logan and ConkliiiR.
May their memories be faithfully cher
ished.
We also recall with our greetings and
with nraver 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
on of victory, Philip II Shetidan.
In tho spirit of those great leaders, and
of our own devotion to human liberty, and
with that hostility to all forms ol 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 we may soon congratulate our fellow-
citizens of Irish birth upon tho peaceful
recovery of home rule for Ireland.
We alhrm our uuswervinc devotion to
the National Constitution and to the in
dissoluble Union of the slates : to the au
tonomy reserved the states under the Con
stitution : to the personal lights 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,
native or foreign born, white or black, to
cast ono freo ballot It. public elections,
utid to have that ballot duly counted. We
hold the freo and honest popular ballot,
and the just anil equal representation of
all thd people, to be the foundation of our
republican government, and demand ef
fective legislation to securn the integrity
and purity of elections, which are tho
fuuiitnms of all public authority. We
charge that the present administration
and tho Democratic majority in Congress
owe their cxisteno; to the suppression of
the ballot by a criminal nullification of the
Constitution and laws of tho United
States.
Wo are uncompromisingly in favor ol
the American system of protection. We
trotost against its destruction proposed
iiy tho president and his party. They
servo the intetests of Europe; we will
sepport tho interests of America. We ac
cept tho issues and conhdently appeal to
the people lor their judgment. The pro
tective system must be mainta'ned, Its
abandonment has always been followed
by general disaster to all interests, except
those of the usurer and the sheriff. We
denounce uic .miiis iiiii an uestriiauve to
tho guncr.il business, tho labor and the
fanning intuiests of the country, and' we
htartily endorfo tho consistent and
patriotic actions ol the Republican Rep
resentatives in Congress in opposing its
passage
Wo condemn the proposition of the
Democratic parly to place wool on the free
list, and we insist (hat the duties thereon
shall bo adjusted and maintained so as to
furnish full and adequate protection to
that industry.
The Republican party would effect a'l
needed reduction of the National revenue
by ropeahng tho taxes on tobacco, which
are an annoyance and burden to agriculture,
and the tax upon spirits Used in the arts
mid for mechanical purposes; and by such
icision of the tariff .is will lend to check
imports of such nrticlos as ara produced by
our people, tho production of which gives
employment lo our labor, and release Irom

requisite foi the wants ol tho government
we fuvor tho entire repeal of internal
taxes rather than the surrender of
any part of our protective s)stem at
thu joint behest of the whisky tntila and
the agents of foreign manufacturers.
We declare our hostility to the introduc
tion into this country of foreign contract
labor, and of Chinese labor, alien to our
civilization and our Constitution, and we
demand the rigid enforcement of the ex.
isting laws against it, and favor such Im
mediate legislation as will exclude such
labor from our shores.
We declare our opposition to all combin
ations of capital organized in trustB or nO'cr
wine, to control arbitrarily the condition
of trade among our citizens, and we com
mend to Cougress and to Iho State Lrgis
attires, in their respective jurisdictions,
such legislation as will prevent the execu
tion of all schemes to oppress the people by
undue charges on their supplies, or by un
just rates fur the tianspoitation of their
product? to market. We approve the leg
islation by Congress to prevent alike un
just burden and unfair discriminations be
tween the Status.
Wc reaflliiii the policy of appropriating
the publio lands of the Uuited Status to ho
homc4tcdk for American citizens and set
tlers, not aliens, which the Republican
parly established in I $63, against the
jiersisteiit opposition of the Democrats in
Congress, and which has brought our great
Western domain into such magnificent
development. The restoration of unearn
ed laud grants to the public domain for
the uso of actual settlors, which was begun
under the administration of President Ar
thur, should be continued. We deny that
the democratic paity has eer restored one
acrtt to the people, but declare that by the
joint action ol repuimcaus and democrats,
about fifty milliuus ot acres of unearned
lands originally granted for the construe,
tion of railnads have been restored to the
public domatu, in punuauci of tho condi
tion inserted by the republican party tu
tho original greiits. We charge the dem
ocratic admintstiatlou with fallutc to exe
cute the laws scouring lo settlers titles to
their homesteads, and with using appro
rUtlons made for that purpose to harass
inuocent settlers with spie-s ami proseou
ttous uuder false prettuco of oxposing
frauds and viudiUAliug the law.
The government by Comireas of the
Territories is lcd upon necessity only,
to the eud that they may become States
tn the Unioujlhereforc, whenever the con
ditions of population, material lesouroee,
public intelligence aud morally ate tuoh
at to tcoure a stable leoal government
therein, tha people of such Territories
should be permitted, as nkht inherent J'
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 be immediately admitted
as a State in the Union, under the con
stitution framed and adopted by the
people, and we heartily indoisc the action
of the Republican Senate in twice
passing bills for her admission. The
refusal of the Democratic House of
Representatives, for partisau 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 no all in its power to fa
cilitate the admission of the territories of
New Mexico, Wyomiug, Idaho and Ari
zona to the enjoyment of telf-govcrnment
as states, such of them as are now quali
fied, as soon as possible, and the others as
soon as they may become so.
The political power of tho Mormon
church in tho 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
furtherance of that end to place upon the
statute books legislation stringent enough
to divorce the political from the ecclesias
tical power, and thus stamp out the
attendant wickedness nf polygamy.
The republican party is in favor of the
use of both gold and silver as money, and
condemns the policy of tho democratic
administration in its efforts to demonetize
silver.
We domand the reduction of letter
postage to I cent per ounco.
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 freo
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 freo institutions
of learning, sufficient to afford 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
actment of such legislation as will bet
secure the rehabilitation of our American
merchant marine, aud we protest against
the passage by Congress of a free ship
lull, as calculated to work injustice to
labor by lessening the wages of those
euunged in preparing materials, as well
as those directly employed in our ship
yards. We demand appropriations for
the early .elmilding ofnuruav); f. r the
construction of coast fortifications and
model n ordnance, and other approved
modern uieuns of defense for the piotec
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 aud the channels of internal
coastwise, and foreign commerce; for the
encouragement nf tho shipping interests
of the Atlantic, Gulf and Pacific Stales, as
well as for the payment ol the maturing
public debt. This policy will gue em
ployment to our labor, activity to our va
rious industries, luorease the security of
our country, promote trade, open new
and direct markets for our produce, and
cheapen the cost of transportation. We
.illirm this In be fnr better for out country
than the democratic policy of loaning the
government money without interest to
"pet banks."
The conduit nf foreign affairs by the
present administration lias been distin
guished by its inefficiency and us coward
ice. Hiving withdrawn from the Senate
all pouding treaties effected by republican
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 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 lo provido against the possibility
that any man who honorably wore tho
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 thosu 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 workmgmen 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 vote; The first con
cern ot all good Government is the virtue
and sobriety of the people and the putity
of the home. The republican party
cordially sympathizes with all wise and
well directed efforts for the promotion of
temperance and morality.

ing adherence to thu Monroe dncrine, it
has seen with idle complacency the exten

Central and South America, and neces

our Pacific territory, with South America
and with tho islands aud further coasts of

We arraign the present democratic ad
ministration for its weak and unpatriotic
treatment ol the nsneries question, aud
its pusillanimous surrender of the essen
tial privileges to which our fishing vessels
ure entitled in Canadian ports uuder the
