The Republicans ol the United States, ajsembled by their delegates in 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 tho heroic names of later leaders, who have moie recent been called away from our councils (..rant, GarHeld, Arthur, LogaD and Conkliug. May thqir memories be faithfully cher ished. ,. , Wo also recall with our greetings and wilh 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 H Sheridan. In tho 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 f unda menial idea of the Republican party, we send fraternal congratulations to our fel low Americana of Brazil upon their great act ol emancipation, which compleled the abolition of slavery throughout the two American continents. Vo earnestly hope that we may soon congratulate our fellow citliens of Irish birth upon the peaceful recovery of homo rule for Ireland. We nfliiui our unswerving devotion to the Nitioual Constitution and to the in dissoluble Union of the slates : to the au tonomy reserved the states under the Con stitution : to the personal rights and liber ties of citizens in all the Slates and Terri tories in the Union, and especially to tho supreme and sovereign right of every lawlul citizen, rich or poor, nativo or foreign born, white or black, to cast one free ballot u. public elections, and to have that ballot duly counted. We hold tho free and honest popular ballot, and the ju 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 ate Ihe fountains of all public authority. We charge that the present administration and tho Democratic majority in Congress owe their existence to the suppression ol the ballot by a criminal nullification ofthe Constitution and laws of tho United States. Wo are uncompromisingly in favor ol the American system of protection. We protest against its destruction proposed by the presuleut and his parly. They serve the interests of Europe; wo will aenoort (ho interests of America. We ac cept tho issues and conlulentlv appeul to the people lor their judgment. The pro tective system must be maintained. In abandonment has always betii follow mI by general disaster to all interests, except llioso of tlio usurer and Ihe sheriff. We denounce the Mills bill as destructive to tho general business, the labor and the faiming interests of the countiy, and we heartily endorse thn consistent and patriotic actious o( the Republican Rep resentatives in Congress in opposing us passage Wo condemn Ihe proposition of the Demecratic: parly to place wool on the free list, and we insist that the duties iherenn shall bo adjusted and maintained so as to furnish full and adequate protecliou to that industry. The Republican party would effiot a'l needed roduction of the National revenue by ropealing tlio taxes on tobacco, winch are an annoyance and burdsiitonjjriculwre, ami the tax upon spirits ieil in ihe arts and for mechanical purposes;, and by such revision of the tariff as will tend to check imports of such nrticles as aru produced by our people, tho production of which gives employment to our Inhor, and release Iroiu Impoit duties those articles of loreign pro duotiou (except luxuries) the like of which can not oe piortuccd at home. If ilu-ic shall still remain a largei ieei.ue thai is! requisite for Ihe wants ot the government we favor tho entire repeal of internal laxes lather ihan the surrender of any part of our protective system at tho joint behest of ihe wluky trusts and tho agents of f-ireign innnufaciuiers. We declare our hostilii) to ihe iniroduo tion into this country of fnieii$n contract labor, and of Chinese labor, alien to our civilization and our Coiitiiuiion, mid we demand Ihe rigid enforcement, of the c isting laws against It, and f.ior such im mediate legislation -s will exclude such labor from our slimes. We declare our opposition to all couibin atious of capital organized m irusisorot' i wise, to conuol aibitiiiiily the condition of trade among oiirciMieii. and we coin mend to Cougrea mid So ihe State Ig' attires, in their respectr e jtiriiiiii':o,is. such legislation as will present the exm-u-tlon of nil schemes iiioppic tb: I o ! undue chaiucs on their Mipin , "i ' i un just rates for the irsiispoiUMon i f liir products to intrkrt W- .pi . e ii 'H islatiou by Congress I otnrn hi just burdens and iiofi" ' THE SPBIHG US, BUGGIES 1R.O.AJD Send for Catalogue and Price List PshJBres: Wagok Goj tween the States. We reaffirm the policy of appropriating the public lands ofthe United Utates to be homesteads for American citizens and set tlers out aliens, which Ihe Rspublican party established in 1862, against the persistent opposition of the Democrats in Congress, and which has brought our great Western domain into such magnificent development. The restoration of unearn ed land grants to the public domain for the use of actual settlers, which was begun under the administration of President Ar thur, should be continued, We deny that the democratic party has ever restored one acre to the people, but declare that by the joint action of republicans and democrats, about fifty millions ol acres of unearned larius origmany kwuicu ivi mc tuuraui tion of railroada have been restored to the nublic domain, in pursuance ofthe conch lions inserted by the republican party in the original grants. We charge the dem ocratic administiation with failure to exe cute the laws securing to settlers titles to their homesteads, and with using appro riations made for that purpose to harass innocent settlers with spies and prosecu tions under false prettnee of cxposinq frauds aud vindicating the law. The government by Coucress of the Territories is based upon necessity only, to Ihe end that they may become States in the Union; therefore .whenever Hie con ditions of population, material resources, nublic intelligence aud morally are such as to secure a stable lecal government therein, the people of such Territories should be permitted, as a rif,nt inherent ir them, to form for themselves a constitution and State government, and be admitted into the Union. Pendinu the prepara tion for Statehood, all officers .hereof should be selected from the bona tide residents and citizens ot the Territory wherein they are to serve. South Dakota should of right be immediately admitted as a State in tho Union, under the con stitution framed and adopted by the people, and we heartily indoise the action of the Republican Senate in twice nassinz bills for her admission. The relusal 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 part) pledges itself to do all in its power to fa cilitate the admission of the territories uf Now Mexico, Wyoming, Idaho and An zona to the enjoyment of -elf giriniiint as states, such of them as tie now quali fied, as soou as possible, and ihe others a soon as they may become so. Tho political power ol tho Mormon church in tho territories, as experienced m tho past, is a menace to frre institutions too dangerous to be 1 ! suikied. There fore wo pledge the ru.mn" an parly to ap propriate legislation .i-srr'.ing Ihe -mer-eignty of the nation in all icrntnnts where tho same is qtiesn.nud, and in turtheruuee of lhal mil ,n plr.ee upon the statute books legislation stiingeitt inougli to divorce the political from '.ho ecclesias tical power, and thus stamp out the attendant wickedness of polygamy. ' The republican party la in favt,r of the use of both gold and bi!cr n money, and condemns the policy of the democratic administration in its iff rts to dunoueliza silver. Wo demand ihe re lucliou of letter postage to I cent per ounce. In a republic like our, where the citizen is the sovereign nod the dlicial the servant, where no power is exercised except by the will ol Ihe people, it is important thai the soser.ign the people should possess iuielhsnce. The free school is the promoter of that intelligence which is to preserve us a fiee nation; therefore, the state or nation, or both combined, should support free institutions of hartiing, sufficient to afford to ever) child growing up in the laud ihe oppor tunity of a good common school edu cation. We earnestly recommend that prompt action be tukeu by Congress in the en actment ol such legislation as will bet s, cure the rehabilitation of our American merchant marine, and w protest against ihe passage I,) Congress of a free ship I'lli, as calculated 10 woik u. justice to la, ur by lessening the wages of those engaged in preparing ina'enals, as well u. those tlirt-ciij employed in our ship .m-iI.

This policy will give em-nlm-ment to our labor, activity to our va rious industries, iucrea.se the security of our country, promote trade, open new and direct markets for our produce, and cheapen the cost of transportation. We atiirm this to be far better for our country ihan the democratic policy of loaning the government money without interest to "pel banks." The conduct of foreign affairs by the present administration has been distin guished by its inefficiency and its coward ice. Hating withdrawn from the Senate all pending treaties effected by republican administration for the removal of foieign burdens and restrictions upon our com- ineico and for its extension into better markets, it has neither effected nor pro posed auy others in their stead. Profess ing adherence to the Monroe doctrine, it has seen with idle complacency the exten sion of foreign influence lu Central America, auii of foreign trade everywhere amuui; our neighbors. It has refused to charter, 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, und of our national influence in Central and South America, and neces sary for tho development ol trade with our Pacific territory, with South America and with the i'lau-ls and further coasts of the Pacific Ocean. We Arraign the present democratic ad ministration for its weak and unpatriotic treatment of the fisheries question, and its pusillammoui surrender of the essen tial privileges to which our fishing vessels are entitled in Canadian ports under the treaty of 1818. the reciprocal maritime legislation ol IS30, and the comity of nations, and which Canadian hshing ves sels receive in the ports of the United States. We condemn the policy of the piesent administration and the democratic majority in Coiigresi toward our fisheries as unlriendly and conspicuously unpatri otic, aud as tending to destroy a valuable national industry, and an indispensable resource of detense against a foreign enemy. The name of Anierica applies alike lo all citizens of the republic, and imposes upon all alike the same obligations of obedience lo the laws. At the same time that citizenship is and must be the pan oply aud safeguard of him who wears it, ami prutect I11111, whether high or low, rich or poar, iu his civil rights. It should aim' 111U1I afford nun protection at home, and follow and pio'ccl him abroad in whatever land he may be on a lawful errand The men who nbamlneil the republican party 111 1SS4. ai.u cu.Minue to adhere lo the democrnlio paiiy, have deserted not only the caue of lionesi government, of Miu'nil fininc, 1 f ne-dom and purity of the balioi, bus e-pcially have deserted tl e ciui-o ol r foitnin the civil service. We will 11. ii Ian to keep our pledges be r.insc they have hiokeu iheir3 or because their candidate ha broken his. We, tl.t-icfore, rtpeat our declaration of 1884, :n -ah; '-The tef urn of the civil service, au-piciouslv beuuii under the republican aiiriini-traiion' should lie completed by the funher extension of the reform system already established by law, to all the grades of ihe servicu to which it is applic able. The souit and purpose of the re lorm shou.d be oh-irvid in all executive appointments, and all laws at variance wiili the object of existing reform leatsla tion should be repealed, to the end that the danger to Iree institutions which lurks in the power of official patronage may be wiely 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 pmvide against the possibility that any man who honorably wore the lederal uniform shall become the inmate f an almshouse, or dependent upon private charity. In ihe presence of an oteilliitvmg treasury it would be a public scandal to do less for those whose valor ous service preserved the government. Wc denounce the hostile spirit shown by I'lisldtsnt Cleveland in his numerous vetoes of measures for pension relief, and the action of the democratic house of r. urt.enfativ.-s in refusing even a consid ers' u ol general pension legislation. lu support of the principles herewith enunciated we invite the co-operation of painoiiu men of all parties, and especially nl alt workingiuen whose prosperity is seriously threatened by the free trade ,o icy of the present administration.
