Desperate diseases some- "tlmea require heroic remedies." Mas ter William Jennings Bryan. "I hold the disturbance of the meas ure of value, the means of payment "and exchange or any derangement of "the currency to be one of the moat "unpardonable of political faults. He "who tampers with the currency robs "tabor of Its bread. He panders, In- "deed, to greedy capital, which Ifc . "keen-sighted, and may shift for itself "but he beggars labor, which is honest. "unsuspecting, and too busy with the "present to calculate for the future. "The prosperity of the working classes "lives, moves, and has its being In es tablished credit, and a steady me- "dium of payment. AU sudden changes "destroy It. Honest Industry never "comes In for any part of the spoils "In that scramble which takes place "when tbe currency of a country Is "disordered. Did violent fluctuations "ever do good to him who depends on "dally labor for his daily bread? Cer tainly never. AU these things may "gratify greediness for sudden gain, by "the rashness of daring speculation; "but they can bring nothing but in jury and distress to the homes of pa tient industry and honest labor. Who "are-they who profit by such a state "of things? They are not the many, "but the few. They are speculators, "brokers, dealers in money, and lend "ers of money at exorbitant Interest fSmall capitalists are crushed, their "means dispersed in various parts of "the country, and, such a miserable "policy having destroyed exchanges, "they have bo longer either money or "credit All classes of labor partake, "and must partake. In the same ca lamity." Daniel Webster. WHY IT WILL DEPRECIATE. "Please explain, if we adopt the free coin axe of silver, why a silver dollar will not b- worth a much and buy just h mucn then as a silver dollar does now?" i-ubecriber. Fix first in your mind this fact: That the buying power (or paying power) of any ccin of final redemption U ALWAYS just the market value of the bullion in it. The stamp of the government is a mere certification of the amount of pure metal in It that SB. Its weight and fineness. Fix In your mind, second, that the bullion in the silver dollar Is worth SO to 53 cents gold and consequently the actual value of that coin Is 'J) to 63 cents, depending on the market price of bullion. Third, fix in your mind that the sil ver dollar Is held up to the value of the gold dollar by the policy of this government, declared by the act of 1SS to maintain all Its money gold, silver and paper at a parity. This can only be done by holding the less value up to the level of the most valuable by hoi 'Ir.g the si'.v. r and paper up to e- Id a'-.:e. This can only be done, in the case of paper, by redeeming It in gold. In the case of silver dollars, w hile not redeemable In gold directly, the secre tary of the treasury, in order to main tain the parity required by act of con gress, would exchange them for treas ury notes on demand. These treasury notes are redeemable In gold, on de mand. Under free coinage of silver, this process of redemption would be swept away. The silver dollar would have to stand alone. What would hold it up to its real value? Nothing. There Is no theory about the fall of the silver dollar to its bullion value. It Is already proved In the experience of every silver country. Mexico, by law, has free coinage of silver and gold, at ISMi to 1. No gold goes to the mint. No gold Is in cir culation. The Mexican dollar weighs s little more than our silver dollar, out It will buy only about 53 cents' worth of gold. Japan has free coinage of silver and gold. The gold yen Is worth a dollar ef our money. The silver yen buys only 53 cents' worth in our money. So It is with every other silver country. There is no country which admits silver to free coinage In which silver circulates at more than Its bul lion value, and none in which any gold circulates. The president of the Connecticut Xtutual Life Insurance Company has issued a circular stating the business effect of the success of the silver raid upon the policy holders. He has about 15,000 policy holders end assets of above JC3,000,000. The corporation has never touched politics. The president ef the company warns the policy hold ers that the value of their holdings will be reduced by the success of the Bryan policy inevitably, destructive ty thrown down. The company could nut redeem In sold If it would. These remarks apply to every Insurance com pany in the land, no matter what Is Insured: to every deposit In a bank, to every aavinit In a building association, to every Kind or st.uk certificate held by widows and orphans, to the I'nlted States bonds nrat of all; and under the Chicago platform positively specified gold contracts would not be respected for any longer time than It would be necessary to tear up the county as Is threatened In the anarchist pledges.

Women are not the only ones who are sensitive about their agee. A man doesn't like to be told that he is get ting old. Health keeps a man young It doesn't make any difference If he has lived eighty years. If they have been healthy years he will be hale and hearty and won't look within twenty years as old as he is. Good digestion and. rich, red Mood make people look youthful. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery makes rich, red blood. It makes health In the right way. It works according : to the right theory, and In 30 years of practice, it has proved that the theory Is absolutely correct It begins at i the beginning- begins by putting the stomach, liver and bowels Into perfect order, but It begins Its good work on the blood be fore It finishes with the digestive sys tem. It searches out disease germs wherever they may be and forces them out of the body. AU druggists keep the "Discovery."

Alderman, Chicago, says: "I regard Dr. King's New Dis covery as an Ideal Panaoea for Coughs, Colds and Lung Complaints, having used It In my family for the last five years, to the exclusion of physician's prescriptions or other preparations." Rev. John Burgus, Keokuk, Iowa, writes: "I have been a minister of the Methodist Episcopal church for 50 years or more, and have never found snything so benellclal or that gave me such speedy relief as Dr. King's New Discovery."

Fight them In the beginning with De Witt's Colic and Cholera Cure. You don't have to wait for results. They are Instantaneous, and It leaves the bowels In healthy condition. People can scoff at the foolishness of humanity over pets until they happen to have one of their own and then they haven't a word to say.

Declaration of Principles The Republican of the l ulled Slstt-s. assembled by their representative In National Convention, appealing for th. popular and historical Justification of their claims to the matchless achieve mcnts of thirty yoius of Republican rule. i-iirncMly and confidently address themselves to the awakened Int.'lll aonce, experience and conscience of their countrymen In th following dec Unit Ion of fuel and principles: For the Mtt time sine, the Civil r the American people hav. wlt r.eed the calamitous rnseunncea pf full and unrestrained IVmocratlc con trol of the iloveriiineiit. It has been a i, old of utipanilled Incapacity, dis honor mid disaster In administrative in.umuemcnt It hits ruthbssly sucrlllc rd Indlspctialhle revenue, entailed an unceasing deficit, eked out ordinary current expense with ln rowed money, piled UP the public debt by l.'SJ.tKiO.OOO In time of peace, forced an adverse bal ance of trade, to a perpetual nienac. hanging over th redemption fund, panned American credit to alien syn dicates and reversed all the measure and results of successful Republican rule. In the broad effect of Its policy It lias precipitate panic, blighted In dustry and trade vtlth prolonged de pression, closest f.ictorles. reduced work and wages, halted enterprise and crip pled American production while stimu lating foreign production for the Am.r Iciin market. K.vcry consideration of public safely and Individual Interest demands that Hie government shall be rescued from the hand of those who hnve shown themselves Incapable of conducting It without disaster at home and dishonor abroad, and shall be re stored to the party which for thirty years administered It with uncqualed success and prosperity. A Protective Taril We renew- and emphasize our allegi ance to the policy of protection a th bulwark of American Industrial Inde pendence and the foundation of Amer ican development and prosperity. Thl true American policy xe foreign pro duct and encourages horn Industry; it puts the burden of revenue on for Ign goods. It secures th American market for the American producer: It uphold the American standard of wage for the American worklngman; It puts tin- factory by the side of the farm, and make the American farmer less dependent on foreign demand and price; it diffuse general thrift end found the itrength of all on th strength of each In Its reasonable ap plication It Is Just. fair, and Impartial. equally opposed to foreign control and domestic monopoly, to sectional dis crimination and Individual favoritism. We denounce th present Democratic tariff as sectional. Injurious to the pub lic credit and destructive to business enterprise. We demand such equitable tariff on foreign Imports which come into competition with American pro ducts as will not only furnlih adequate revenue for the necessary expense of the government, but will protect Amer ican labor from degredatlon to the wage level of other lands. We are not pledged to any particular ehcdulc. The question of rates Is a practical question, to be governed by the condi tions of the time and production; the ruling and uncompromising principle is the protection and development of American labor and Industry. The country demands a right settlement and then It wants rest. Rfciirocilv Willi Hilier Nations. We believe the repeal of the reci procity arrangements negotiated by the Inst R publican administration was a national calamity, and we demand their renewal nnd extension on uch terms as will equalize our trade with other nations, remove the restriction which now obstruct the sale of Amer ican products In the port of other countries and secure the enlarged mar kets of our farms, forests and factories. Protection nnd reciprocity are twin measure of Republican policy, and go hand In hand. Democratic rule has recklessly struck down both, and both must be re-established. Protection for what we produce, free admission for the necessaries of life which we don't produce, reclproenl agreement of mu tual Interest which gain open market for us In return for our open market to others. Protection builds up domestic industry nnd trade and secure our own market for ourselves. Reciprocity builds up foreign trad.' and find an outlet for our surplus. Pr.tpctlon to Siij,'ar Producers. We condemn the present administra tion for not keeping faith with th sugar producer of this country. Th Republican party favor uch protec tion as will lead to the production on American soil of all the sugar th American people use, and for which they pay other countries more than 1100,000,000 annually. Wool and Woolens. To all our products to those of th mine and the field, a well a to thoe of the shop and the factory to hemp to wool, the product of the great indus try of sheep husbandry, aa well a to the finished woolen of the mill w promise the most ample protection. Merchant Marine.

The Financial Ismic. "The Republican party I unreserv edly for sound money. It caused I he enactment of the law providing for the resumption of specie payment In 1?1; since then every dollar has Iwn as good a gold. Wo are unalterably op posed to every measure calculated to de base our currency or Impair the credit of our country. We are, therefore, op. posed to the free coinage of silver, ex cept by International agreement with the leading commercial nations of the world, which we pledge oureeltr to promote, and until such agreement ran be obtained we believe the existing gold standard must be preserved. All our silver and paper currency now In circulation must be maintained at a parity with gold, and we favor all measure dealgned to maintain Inviola ble the obligation of the I'nlted Otate. and all our money, w hether coin or paper, at the present standatd, th standard of the most enlightened na tions of the earth." IVihlons for Vrtcrans. The veterans of the I'nlon armlea de serve and should receive fair treatment and generous recognition. Whenever practicable they should be given th preference In th matter of employ ment, and they ar entitled to the en actment of such law aa best calculat ed to secure, (he fulfillment of the pledge mad to them In the dark day of th country' peril. We denounce the practice of the enlon bureau to recklessly and unjustly carried on by th preeent administration, of reducing pension and arbitrarily dropping name from th roll. d.-rwrvlng th severest condemnation of the American people. Korrlgn Relation Our foreign policy should be at all tiro Arm, vlgorou and dignified, and all our Interests In th western hemis phere carefully watched and guarded. The Hawaiian Islands should be con trolled by the I'nlted Plate and no for eign power should be permltetd to In terfere with them. The Nicaragua Canal should be built, owned and op erated by the fnlted State, and by the purchase of the Danish Inlands we should secure a projx-r and much-needed naval station In the West Indie. Armenian Maacre The massacres In Armenia have aroused the deep sympathy and Just Indignation of the American people, and we believe that the I'nlted State should exercise all the Influence It can properly exert to bring these atrocities to an end. In Turkey, American resi dents have been exposed to th gravest dangers and American property de stroyed. There and everywhere Amer ican cltlxeii and American property must be absolutely protected at all haxard and at any cost. Monroe Doctrine, We reassert the Monroe doctrine In Its full extent nnd reaffirm the right of the rnulted States to give the doctrine effect by responding to the appeals of any American state for friendly Inter vention In case of Kuropean encroach ment. We have not Interfered, and shall not Interfere, with the existing possessions of any Kuropean power In this liemlsplu-te, but those possession must not, on any pretext, b extended We hopefully look forward to the eventual withdrawal of the European power from this hemisphere, and Ujjj ultimate union of all the English speaking part of the continent by the free consent of Its Inhabitants. Independence of I'nlia. From the hour of achieving their own Independence the people of the United State have regarded with sympathy the struggles of other American people to free themselves from European dom ination. We watch with deep and abid ing Interest the heroic battle of the Cu ban patriots against cruelty and op pression, and our best hope go out for the full aucces of their determined con test for liberty. The government of Spain, having lost control of Cuba and being unable to protect the property or live of resi dent American citizen or to comply with It treaty obllgatlones, we believe that the government of th United State should actively use It Influence and good office to restore peace and give Independence to the Island. Enlargement of the Navy. The peace and security of the repub lic and the maintenance of it rightful Influence among the nation of the earth demand a naval power commen surate with It position and responsi bility. We therefore favor the contin ued enlargement of the navy and complete system of harbor and coast defense. IniiiiiiUiiiliiii Laws. For th protection of the equality of our American eltlicimlilp snd of th wage of our wnrkliigmvn against th fatal competition of low-priced labor, we demand that th Immlgrallon law be thoroughly enforced, and ) emend ed a to exclude from rntranc to th I'nlted Slate thoao who ran neither read nor w rit. Civil Service. The t'lvll Service law was placed on th statute book by th Republican party, which has always sustained It. and ' w e renew our repeated declara tions that It shall be thoroughly and honestly enforced and extended wher ever practicable, Free liallot. W demand that every cltlsen of th United State shall be allowed to cast one free and unrestricted ballot, and that such ballot shall be counted and returned ss cast. hnchlns l'oiiienin.'d. We proclaim our unqualified condem nation of th uncivilised and barbarous pi sellers, w ell known as lynching or killing of human belli, auspectrd or charged with crime, without procv of law. National Arbitration. W favor the creation of a national board of arbitration to settle and ad just difference which may arise be tween employer and employed engaged In Interstate commerce Free Homesteads. W bellev In an Immediate return to th free homestead policy of th Republican party and urg th passage by congress of th satisfactory free homestead measure which ho already passed the house and I now pending In th senate. AdmMnn of Territories. W favor the admission of the re maining territories at th earliest prac ticable date, having due regard to th Interests of th people of the terrlto rtr and of the I'nlted State. All th federal officer appointed for th terrt torle shall be (elected from bona fid resident thereof, and th right of self government ahall be acorded as far a practicable. Alaska Representation. We believe the cltlsens of Alaska should have representation In the con gress of the United Htates.to the end that needful legislation may be Intelli gently enacted. .Sumptuary Legislation. We sympathise with all wis and le gltln cte effort to lessen and prevent Km evils of Intemperance and promote morality. Rights of Women. The Republican party la mindful of the right and Interest of women. Pro tection of American Industries Include equal opportunities, equal pay fur equal work and protection p, t,e home. W favor the admission of women lo wider spheres of usefulness., and welcoms their co-opcratlon In rescuing th coun try from Democratic and populist ml management and misrule. Such are the principle and pollcle of the Republi can party, lly these principles we will abide and these principles we will put Into execution. We ask for them th considerate Judgment of the American people. Confident alike In the history of our great party and In the Justice of our cause, we present our platform and our considerations. In the full assurance that the election will bring victory to the Republican party and prosperity to the people of the United Slates.
