proved in regulation and the national

"briBuary ImruViK and new bonds lwve
been negotiated at lower ratis. The
revenues have Ixrn ciirefldly collected
and honestly applied. Despite tlie an
nlral large rediH'tioits from the rates of
taxaiiou the public debt lias been re
flueud dUrtngGrant9 presidency at tlie
rate of one inmdred million dollars ier
year. A great tiiianeial .Tlsls has lieen
avoided ami ieuee and plenty prevail
througout tlie land. Menacing for
eign dlftionlties have been iieaeefnlly
ami honorably compromised, ami tlie
'honor and power of the nation has
been kept high throughout the world.
TliU glorious record of tlie past is tlie
party bet -pledge for tlie future. We
believe tlie jieoplc will not entrust tlie
Government to any party oreombina
tloo ot'meiMDmpn-cd of tliose who
chiefly have resided every step in this
beneficial progress.
Second Complete liberty and exact
i iiulitv in tlie cninvuieut of all civil
political and public rights should be
established and effectually maintained
throughout tlie Union, by etllcient and
appropriate State ami Federal legi-da
tion. Neither the law or its adminis
tration should admit of any discriuiin-
aCion in n?neit to citizens, hv reason
of race, creed, color, or previous con
dition of servitude.
Third Tlie amendments to (lie Na
tional Con-tit ut inn should be cordially
sustained, because tbev are 'ght; not
merely tolerated because they arc law;
shonkl be carried out accord
ing to their spirit by appropriate
legislation, tlie enforcement of w Inch
uw be safely trusted only to the party
that secured the amendments.
Fourth Tlie National Government
should seek to maintain au honorable
peace witu , i ....... protecting its
citizen everywliere ai. ympathiziug
With "II people who sir. e for greater
liberty.
Fifth Any system of civil service
under which tlw subordinate positions
of tlie Government ate considered as
rewards for mere party zeal, is fatally
dcmnraliziug, and we tliereftire lavor
a reform of tlie system by laws which
shall abolish tlie evils of patronage and
make honesty, efficiency and fldelity
eneiiti.il qualifications for public posi
tion, without practically creating a life,
tenure of office.
Sixth We are opposed to furthci
grants of the public lands to corpora
rfbtts and monopolies, and demand
that tlie national domain shall be set
-apart for tlie free use of the people.
Seventh- Tlie annual revenue, after
TOTtne tlie currr-nt expenditures.
should furnish a moderate balance for
the reduction of the principal of the
debt-; ami revenue, except so much as
may be received from a tax on tolic
co atid Honors, ought to be rated by
duties on importations, the scale of
which should be so adjusted as to aid
In securing remunerative wages to l.t-
liorers and to promote tlie Industrie,
giowth and prosperity of tlie whole
country.
Eighth We hold in undying honor
tlie soldiers and sailors nwa valor
sieved the Union. Their pension are
a sacred debt of the nation, and wid
ows and orphans of those who died for
their country are entitled to the care
of tlie Government and the gratitude
of the people. We favor such addi
tional legislation as will extend tlie
bounty of the Government to all our
sokliers and sailors wV were honor
ably discharged, and who in time of
duty .became disabled,- without reganl
to the length of their service or the
WtiscbfsuchOlsclMrge'. ,
Nititb-'nic (loctrine of Great Brit
ain and other European Powers con-i-eniihgallegianoe
"once a subject al
ways a subject,' laving at last,
through the efforts of tlie KepiiMican
jrty, been aoatKloned, and the Ameri
can idea of the right or the individual
to transfer Ms allegiance having lieen
accepted by tlie European nation, it is
tbe duty of our Government to guard
with jealous care the rights of admired,
citizens against tlie assumptions ofiui
autltoriBwl claims by their lbrmergov
ernmente; and we urge the continued
aial careful cncounigenient and protec
tion of voluntary iuiniigratioii.

freedom. 'l'Mr admission to useful- j
lies Is received with satisfaction, and j
tlie lamest demands ot any class of clt- j
