Declaration of Principles
The Itcpubllcant of ths United Btates,
assembled by their representatives In
National Convention, appealing for ths
popular and historical justification of
their claims to the matchless achieve
ments of thirty years of Republican
rule, earnestly and confidently address
themselves to the awakened' Intelli
gence, experience and conscience of
their countrymen In ths following- dec
laration of facts and principles:
For the first time since the Civil
War the American people have wlt
nessed ths calamitous consequences of
full and unrestrslned Democratic con
trol of the Government. It has been
record of unpsrslled Incapacity, dis
honor and disaster. In administrative
management It has ruthl'ssly sacrific
ed lndlper.lhle revenue, entailed an
unceasing deficit, eked out ordinary
U urrent einenaea with borrowed money.
r.el on the nilhlle debt bv Il'M.IXlO.OOO
In time of peace, forced an adverse bal
ance of trade, to a perpetual menace
hanging over the redemption fund,
pawned American credit to alien syn
dicates and reversed all the measures
and results of successful Republican
rule. In the broad effect of Its policy
It haa precipitated panic, blighted In
dustry and trade with prolonged de
pression, closed factories, reduced work
and wages, halted enterprise and crip
pled American production while stimu
lating foreign production for the Amer
ican market. Every consideration of
public safety and Individual Interest
demands that the government shall be
rescued from the hsnds of those who
have shown themselves Incapable of
conducting It without disaster at home
and dishonor abroad, and shall he re
stored to the party which for thirty
years administered It with unentitled
success and prosperity.
A Protective Tarifl. .
We renew and emphasize our allegi
ance to the policy of protection as the
bulwark of American Industrial Inde
pendence and the foundation of Amer
ican development and prosperity. This
true American policy taxes foreign pro
ducts and encourages home Industry;
It puts the burden of revenue on for
eign goods. It secures the American
market tor the American producer; It
upholds the American standard of
wages for the American workingman;
It puta the factory by the side of the
farm, and makes the American fanner
less dependent on foreign demand and
price; it diffuses general thrift and
founds the strength of all on the
strength of each. In Its reasonable ap
plication It is just, fair, and Impartial,
I equally opposed to foreign control and
I QOmeSIIC
monopoly, to sectional dis
crimination and Individual favoritism.
We denounce the present Democratic
tariff as sectional. Injurious to the pub
lic credit and destructive to business
enterprise. We demand such equitable
I ,ar"f 0I foreign Imports which come
Into competition with American pro
ducts aa will not only furnish adequate
revenue for the necessary expenses of
the government, but will protect Amer
ican labor from degradation to the
i wg level of other lands. We are not
pledged to any particular schedules.
The question of rates Is a practical
question, to be governed by the condl-
tlons 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.
Reciprocity With Other Nations.
We believe the repeal of the reci
procity arrangements negotiated by the
last Republican administration was a
national calamity, and we demand
their renewal and extension on such
terms as will equalise our trade with
other nations, remove the restrictions
which now obstruct the sale of Amer
ican products In the ports of other
countries and secure the enlarged mar
kets of our farms, forests and factories.
Protection and reciprocity are twin
measures of Republican policy, and go
hnnd 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, reciprocal agreements of mu
tual Interest which gain open markets
for us in return for our open market to
others. Protection builds up domestic
industry and trade and secures our
own market for ourselves. Reciprocity
builds up foreign trade and finds an
outlet for our surplus.
Protection to Sugar Producers.
We condemn the present administra
tion for not keeping faith with the
sugar producers of this country. The
Republican party favors such protec
tion as will lead to the production on
American soil of all the sugar the
American people use, and for which
they pay other countries more than
$100,000,000 annually.
Wool and Woolens.
To all our products to those ot the
mine and the Held, as well as to those
of the shop and the factory to hemp
to wool, the product of the great Indus

can policy of discriminating duties for
the up-butldlng of our merchant marine
and the protection of our shipping In
the foreign carrying trade, so that
American ships the product of Amer
ican labor, employed In American ship
yards, sailing under the Stars and
Stripes, and manned, officered and
owned by Americans may regain th
carrying of our foreign commerce.
The Financial Issue.
"The Republican party la unreserv
edly for sound money. It caused th
enactment of the law providing for the
resumption of specie paymenta In 1879;
alnce then every dollar has been as
good aa gold. We 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 ourselves to
promote, and until such agreement can
be obtained we believe the existing
gold standard must be preserved. All
our sliver and paper currency now In
circulation must be maintained at a
parity with gold, and we favor all
measures designed to maintain Inviola
ble the obligations of the United
States, and all our money, whether coin
or paper, at the present standard, tbe
standard of the most enlightened na
tions of the earth."
Pensions for Veterans.
The veterans of the Union armies de
serve and should receive fair treatment
and generous recognition. Whenever
practicable they should be given the
preference tn the matter of employ
ment, and they are entitled to the en
actment of such laws as beat calculat
ed to secure the fulfillment of the
pledges made to them In the dark days
of the country's peril. We denounce
tbe practice of the pension bureau so
recklessly and unjustly carried on by1
the present administration, of reducing
pensions and arbitrarily dropping
names from the rolls, as deserving th
severest condemnation of the American
people. 1
Foreign Relations.
Our foreign policy should be at an
times firm, rigorous and dignified, and
all our Interests In the western hemis
phere carefully watched and guarded.
The Hawaiian Islands should be con
trolled by the United States 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 United States, and by
the purchase of the Danish Islands we
should secure a proper and much-needed
naval station In the West Indies.
Armenian Massacres.
The massacres in Armenia have
aroused the deep sympathy and Just
indignation of the American people,
and we believe that the United States
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 the gravest
dangers and American property de
stroyed. There and everywhere Amer
ican cittxens and American property
must be absolutely protected at all
hazards and at any cost.
Monroe Doctrine.
We reassert the Monroe doctrine In
Its full extent and reaffirm the right of
the Unuited States to give the doctrine
effect by responding to the appeals of
any American state for friendly Inter
vention In case of European encroach
ment. We have not Interfered, and
shall not Interfere, with the existing
possessions of any European power In
this hemlsphete, but those possessions
must not, on any pretext, be extended.
We hopefully look forward to the
eventual withdrawal of the European
powers from this hemisphere, and the
ultimate union of all the English
Speaking part of the continent by the
free consent of Its inhabitants.
Independence of Cuba.
From the hour of achieving their own
Independence the people of the United
States have regarded with sympathy
the struggles of other American peoples
to free themselves from European doni-
tnatlon. We watch with deep and abid
ing interest the heroio battle of the Cu
ban patriots against cruelty and op
pression, and our, best hopes go out for
the full success ot their determined con
test for liberty.
The government of Spain, having lost
control of Cuba and being unable to
protect the property or lives of resi
dent American citizens or to comply
with its treaty obltgatlones, we believe
that the government of the United
States should actively use Its Influence
and good offices 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 Its rightful
Influence among the nations of the
earth demand a naval power commen
surate with Its position and responsi
bility. We therefore favor the contin
ued enlargement of the navy and a
of harbor and sea
Immigration Laws.
For th protection of th equality of
our American citizenship and of th
wages of our worklngmen against the
fatal competition of low-priced Labor,
we demand that the Immigration lew)
be thoroughly enforced, and so extend
ed as to exclude from entrance to tho
United Btates those who can neither
read nor write.
Civil Service.
The Civil Service law was placed oa
the statute book by the Republican
party, which has always sustained It.
and we renew our repeated declara
tions that It shall be thoroughly and
honestly enforced and extended wher
ever practicable.
Free Ballot.
We demand that every citizen of tha
United Btates shall be allowed to cast
one free and unrestricted ballot, and
that such ballot shall be counted and
returned as cast
Lynching Condemned.
W proclaim our unqualified condem
nation of the uncivilized and barbarous
practices, well known as lynching or
killing of human beings, suspected or
charged with crime, without process of
law.
National Arbitration.
' We favor the creation of a national
board of arbitration to settle and ad
just differences which may arise be
tween employer and employed engaged
in Interstate commerce.
I
Free Homesteads.
We believe In an immediate return
to the free homestead policy of th
Republican party and urge the passage
by congress of tbe satisfactory free
homestead measure which haa already
passed the house and Is now pending
In the senate.
Admission of Territories.
We favor the admission of the re
maining territories at the earliest prac
ticable date, having due regard to the
interests of the people of the territo
ries and of the United States. AU th
federal officers appointed for the terri
tories shall be selected from bona fide
residents thereof, and the right of self
government shall be acorded as far aa
practicable.
Alaska Representation.
We believe the citizens of Alaska
should have representation In the con
gress of the United States.to the end
that needful legislation may be Intelli
gently enacted.
Sumptuary Legislation.
We sympathise with all wise and le-
gl tin-ate efforts to lessen and prevent
the evils of intemperance and promote
morality.
Rights of Women.
The Republican party Is mindful of
the rights and Interests ot women. Pro
tection of American Industries Includes
equal opportunities, equal pay for equal
work and protection to the home. We
favor the admission ot women to wider
spheres of usefulness, and welcome
their co-operation in rescuing the coun
try from Democratic and Populist mis
management and misrule. Such are the
principles and policies of the Republi
can party. By these principles we win
abide and these principles we will put
Into execution. We ask for them the
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 ot the United States.
