THE REPUBLICAN PLATFOKM.
Governor Fornker asked the ununi-
mous conseDt of the ooiivention to the
readinK of the platform us prepared by
tho oommittee od resolntiouB. It is r
follows:
The re preset) tativen of the republicans
of the United States, assembled in gener
al convention on the shore of the Mis.
niesippi river, the everlasting bond of an
indestructible republic, whose most ulo-
rious ohapter of history is the record of
the republican party, congratulate their
conntrjmen on the nyijiflt'O' march of
the nation under the huoners inscribed
with the principles of onr platform of
1888, vindication by victory at the polls
and prosperity iu the fields, workshops
and mines, and make the following dec
laration of principles:
We reaffirm the American doctrine of
proteotiou. We call attention to its
growth abroad. We maintain tnat the
prosperous condition of our oountry is
largely due to the wise revenue legisla
tion of a republican congress. We be
lieve that all the articles which onnnot
be produoed in the United States, ex
cept luxuries, should be admitted free of
duty, and that on all imports ooming in
to competition with ,the products of
AmerioHn labor thore hould be levied
duties equal to the difference between
wages abroad and at home. We assert
thut the prices of manufactured articles
of general consumption have been re
duced under the operations of the tariff
act of 1890. We denounce the efforts of
the democratic majority iu the house of
representatives to destroy our tariff laws
by piece-meal as is manifested by the at
tack upon wool and leed ores, the ohief
products of a number of states, and we
ask the people for their judgment there
on. We point to the success of the re
publican policy of reciprocity, under
which our export trade has vastly in
creased, and new enlarged markets been
opened for the products of our farms and
workshops. We remiud the people of
the bitter opposition of the demooratio
party to this practioal business measure,
and claim that, executed by a republican
administration, our present laws will
eventually give us control of the trade
of the world.
THE SILVE11 QUESTION.
The American people, from tradition
and interest, favor bi-metalisni, and the
republican party demands the use of
both gold and silver as rtandard money,
wiih such restrictions iidd. uudei sucb
provision, to ha 3f-viHV.'d by legisla
tion, as will secure the maintenance of a
parity of the values of the two metnls, so
that the purchasing and debt-paying
power of the dollar, whether silver, gold
or paper, shall be at all times equal. The
interests of the producers of the country,
its farmers and workinomen, demand
that every dollar, paper or coin, issued
by the government, shall be as good us
any other. We commend the wise and
patriotio steps already taken by our gov
ernment to secure an international con
ference to adopt such measures as will
insure a parity of value between gold and
silver for use as money throughout the
world.
A FHEE BALLOT.
We deniund that every oitizen of the
United States shall be allowed to cast
one free and unrestricted ballot iu all
public elections, and that such ballot
shall be oounted und returned as oast;
that such laws shall be enaoted and en
forced as will secure to every citizen, be
he rich or poor, native or foreign-born
white or black, this sovereign right guar'
anteed by the constitution. The free
and honest popular ballot, just and equal
representation of all people, as well as
their just and equal protection under the
laws, are the foundation of our republi
can institutions, and the party will never
relax its t fforts until the integrity of the
ballot and the purity of elections shall
be fully guaranteed in every state. We
denounoe the ooutiuued inhuman out
rages perpetrated upon American oiti-
zens for politioul reasons in certain
southern states of the Union.
EOHEIGN HELATIONS.
We favor the extension of our foreign
oommeroe, the restoration of our mer
cantile. marine by home-built ships, and
the creation of a navy fur the protection
of our national interests and the honor
of our Hag; the maintenance of the most
friendly relations with all foreign pow
ers; entangling alliauoes with none, and
the protection of the rights of onr fisher
men. We reaffirm our approval of the
Monroe doctrine, and believe iu the
achievement of the manifest destiny Of
the republic in the broadest sense. We
favor the enactmenlinent of stringent
laws and relations for the restriction of
criminal, pauper and Contract imiuigra
tiocj.
MISC-ELI.ANKOnH.
We favor efficient legislation by con
gress to protect the lives and limbs of
employes of transportation companies
engaged in carrying on interstate com
merce, and recommend legislation by the
respective states that will protect em
ployes engaged in state commerce, in
mining and manufacturing.
The republican party bas always been
the champion of the oppressed, and rec
ognizes the dignity of manhood, irre
spective of faith, color or nationality.
It sympathizes with the cause of home
rule in Ireland, and protests against the
persecution of the J- wa in Knunia. The
ultimate reliance of a free popular gov
ernment is the intelligence of the people
and maintenance of freedom among men.
We therefore declare anew onr devotion
to liberty of thought and conscience, of
speech and press, and approve all agen
cies and instrumentalities whioh con
tribute to the education of the children
of the land; but while insisting upon the
fullest measuro of religious liberty, we
are opposed to any nnion of ohurch and
state.
We reaffirm our opposition, declared
in the repnblioao platform of 1888, to all
combinations of capital organized iu
trusts, or otherwise, to control arbitrarily
the condition of trade among our citi
zens. We heartily endorse the actioD
already taken upon this subjeot and ask
for such further legislation as may be
required to remedy any defects in the ex
isting laws and render their enforcement
more complete and effective.
We approve the polioy of extending to
towns, villages nnd rural communities
the advantages of the free delivery costal
service, now enjoyed by the larger cities
of the oountry, and reaffirm the declara
tion oontaiued iu the republican plat
form of 1888, pledging a reduction of let
ter postage to one cent at the earliest
possible moment consistent with the
maintenance of the postoffie department
and the highest class of postal service.
We oommend the spirit and evidence
of reform in the civil service and the
wise and consistent endorsement by the
republican party of luws regulating the
same.
The construction of the Nioaraguu
canal is of the highest importance to the
American people, both as a measure of
national defense and to build up and
maintain American commerce, and should
be controlled by the United States gov
ernment. We favor the admission of the remain
ing territories at the earliest practicable
date, having due regard to the interests
of the people of the territories of the
United States. All federal officers ap
pointed for the territories should be se
lected from bona lidu residents thereof,
and the right of self-government should
be aocorded as fur as practicable.
We favor the cession, subject to home
stead, of arid pnblio lands to the states
and territories in whioh they lie, under
such oungressional restrictions us to dis
position, reclamation and ocoupanoy by
settlers as will secure the maximum ben
efits to the people.
The Columbian exposition is a great
national undertaking, and congress
should promptly enact such reasonable
legislation in aid thereof as will insure
ftdischarging'of the expense aud obliga
tions incident tiieret". and the ittainnitft'
of results'commeusurate wilh the dig
nity and progress of the nation.
We sympathize with all fair and legit
imate legislation to lessen and prevent
the evils of intemperance and promote
morality.
Ever mindful of the services and sacri
fices of men who saved the life of the na
tion, we pledge anew to the veteran sol
diers of the repnblio watchful care and
recognition of their just claims upon a
grateful people.
We oommend Ihe able, tho patriotio
and thoroughly American administration
of President Harrison. Under it the
oountry has enjoyed remarkable pros
perity, and the dignity and honor, of the
nation at home and abroad have been
faithfully maintained, and we offer the
record of pledges kept as a guarantee of
faithful performance in the future.
The platform was adopted, notwith
standing a plcu from Hiscock to give the
advocates of the irrigation of arid lands
in the West a chance to be heard; aud
the convention adjourned.
NfiWHl'AI'KK OPINION.
Journal (rep.) : The nomination is a
deserved tribute, and cannot be inter
preted as a personal defeat for Blaine.
The Philadelphia Inquirer: The re
publican party never had more reason to
be satisfied with its prospects than now,
London Daily News: Blaine is badly
beaten, aud in the judgment of our New
York correspondent, will disappear from
A mericun politics.
Boston Herald (Ind ): We regard it
as a fortunate thing for the country.
Harrison has not been a great president,
but he lius been, within the limitations
of intense partisanship, an honest and
upright man in office.
The Chicago Timesfdem.): Last week
lilaine threw up the portfolio of state.
Today the chief whom thus he defied
calmly attaches him to the car of tri
mnph and without apparent exultation
will use his friends for the slaughter
The Philadelphia Times: Harrison is
a strong candidate. Of that fact let
those interested take kindly notice. If
he fall in the race it will be because of the
weakness of the party's record, and uot
because of the weakness of the candi
date. The World: Harrison is a much bet
ter representative of his party's ideas
than Blaine would have been. Bluiue
has friends of staunch loyalty and long
memories and the issues between the
president and him left them riwntful in
an unusual degree.
The Tribune : Mont wins. The peo
ple regoguize aud gludly reward faithful
and effective services. All the efforts of
zealous friends would have been of no
avail bad the republican millions not be
lieved Harrison deserved excentionully
their confidence aud honor. The vice
presidential uomiuution is a distinction
not sought, anil we cannot insure a more
zealous and royal suoport of the ticket
by the Tribune than it would have given
to any caudidate whom the convention
oould have chosen.
The Chicago Inter Ocean (Kep): Blaine
and MoKinley above all others are the
names to kindle the enthusiasm of the
peosle, but the convention was not to be
lifted and dashed to earth again by a cy
clone. The deliberate judgment of the
oountry favored tho nomination of Har
rision and that settled it.
The Times: If the republicans are
destined to be successful, it is better
their candidate should be Harrison than
that the oountry should incur the risk of
choosing a weaker or worse man. If
Harrison is defeated the democrats will
at least have the satisfaction of contend
ing against an antagonist whom they
oan respect.
Louisville Courier-Journal (dem ):
Beyond anv question the president is the
strongest candidate the republicans
eould put in the field. With Harrison at
the hcod of the forces, the Eepublioans
will unite. Whitelaw Eeid will strength
en the tioket in more ways than one. He
is a man of large wealth, which he knows
how to spend. He is the ohief of a great
journal, whioh is a power by itself.
The Ciuoinuati Commercial Gazette:
The opponents of Herrison were honest
in their purpose. We would have pre
ferred the nomination of James G. Blaine.
Under his leadership, in our opinion,
viotory in November might have been
easier, but since the majority decided iu
bis fnvur, we are unqualifiedly for Ben
jamin Harrison, aud so gladly will do
onr utmost to insure his triumphant elec
tion. The London Times: The ouly sur
prise is the result was reaohed in one
ballot. It puts Blaine into a somewhat
ridiculous position. It is not defeat but
rout. We have no reaeou to be dissatis
fied. Blame's selection would have aug
ured badly for the future relations of
Ameiioa with England and the outward
world general'. Blaine is the advooate
of an active foreign policy of a trouble
some and offensive tone.
The Chicago Tribune (rep.): It mut
tered little by what methods Harrison
secured the high honor or that the fol.
lowing in northern states was reinforced
by a strong but important contingent
from the south which cannot aid him in
November, intiir-h as ih uiujv liBve done
for hun in June. The lemjers and every
true republican will rally to thestaudard
with the same determination that would
have been shown had Blaine been the
standari bearer.

HARRISON AND CHINESE EX.
CLUSION.
The Boston Herald, in a spasm of mis
sionary sentimentulism on the restriction
of the Chinese, sees fit to attack Presi
dent Harrison on the soore of undue
haste in siguiug the new exclusion bill
within 21 hours of the expiration of tho
old one. The Herald says the presi
dent is trying to gain votes on the Pa
cific slope thereby, though the bill would
not meet with the approval of prrmahly
four millions of the country at large
Such buueombe is hut a oriterion of the
utter luck of sense of many of the peo.
pie and papers of the East who are at
tempting to shape public sentiment up
on questions of vital import to the West.
If the sixty millions of people east of tho
Kockies knew the Mongolian as well as
the four million west of the divide, they
would have been importuning the execn.
tive for months before the expiration of
the old bill to leave no loop hole where
by the cunning oriental could oome into
the country. If the Herald could have
the Chinese population of Portland or
San Francisco dumped iuto the center
of Boston for a few years, till it conld
realize the practical consequences of
these people coming among them, bow
differently it would talk. An econom
ical plan of testing whether these peo
ple of the East would choose Chinese iu
competition with white labor, would bp
to study the situation here on the Pa

men who oan and will underbid white
laborers, no matter how cheaply the lat
ter may consent to work ; watch them iu.
sinuate themselves iuto the homes, to
usurp the only field for work that thous
ands of women and girls should occupy,
until the letter are driven to every phase
of extremity and landed Iu consequence
in the large oities of this coast, iu dance
houses and brothels by the thousauil.
No one thut knows the truth of this
question, as it exists and has existed,
iu California especially, for a score of
years, oan deny that Chinese emigrants
have made paupers biuI trumps of men,
and barred the legitimate fields of sup
port to tens of thousandsof women, who,
iu despair of work, have swelled the
ranks of the denii monde. The great
majority of American people opposed to
restriction of Chinese immigration?
How easy it iB for some people to tulk
upon topics of which they have ouly
preoonceived predjudioes. But then,
wo niunt remember that this impractical
opiuiiliou oomes from a section - of
country so hyper-educated as to have
lost all real suiise of propriety, and per
mitted its college bred daughters to
form marriage alliauoes with ulmoud
eyed shyloekn, barterers in women and
slaves. When the super-sensitive East
comes to know the poor liiiliim and the
Chinese as thoroughly as do those who
have to treat witli them, it will be con
tent to let oitizeus of those sections deal
with them whose relations are most
closely allied,
Till') DEMOCRATIC OUTLOOK.
Tho assembling of the Chicago ooiiven
tion one week from today, for the selec
tion of democratic standard bearers, is
looked forward to as the most important
politioul event before the November elec
tion. Iu the language of the turf we
may say, it w ill be Cleveland against the
field, just us it wus Harrison against the
field at Minneapolis. There will be more
active democratic candidates ut Chicago,
than the republicans brought into their
convention. Nor is it so apparent who
the choice, viewed from this date, will
be. Ihe demooratio party bus far more
serious factional difficulties to settle than
had their opponents. Campbell, Gray,
Palmer, lioies, Gorman and Carlisle will
all cliiim attention on the side, while
Cleveland and Hill will make the cock
uuil hull light.
The Syracuse convention of the 31st
ult., recommended Cleveland to the Chi
cago convention as the choice of ull the
democracy and pledged itself to support
the Candidate, whoever he might bo. No
doubt Cleveland has mimt of the democ
racy behind him, so that he may frustrate
the schemes of his enemies and the blun
ders of his friends.
The republicans have just furnished a
pertinent lesson as to which are the moht
disastrous. The light will be with the
Albany delegation instructed for Hill.
The Hjnii'iisi) deputation to Chicago
will probably' never receive recognition,
but content themselves by sitting in the
gallery and entering unheard protests to
the more regularly appointed February
delegation. This local quarrel in NVw
Vork seems to threaten more disaster to
the ticket than ull previous partv disaf
fection, lint however New York's differ
ences of opinion may be adjusted, the
Cbiciio convention has a perilous route
to navigate, compared with which tho
Minneapolis convculi.m was upon hal
cyon seas.
