Protection, which guards and
dovelops our Industrie ia a cardi
nal policy of the Republican party.
The measure of protection should
always at least equal the differ
ence in th cost of produslioa at
home and abroad. We insist upon
the maintenance of the principle
of protection, and therefore rataa of
duty should be readjusted only
when conditions have so changed
that the public interest demands
their alteration.
But this work cannot safely he
committed to any other hands than
thoo of the Republican party.
To entrust it to the Democratic
party ia to invite disaster. Whether
as in 1902 the Democratic party
declared the protective tariff un
constitutional, or whether it de
mands tariff reform or tariff re
vision, its real object is alwava the
destruction of the protective system.
However specious the name, the
purpose is ever the same. A Dem
ocratic tariff has always been fol
lowed by business adversity; a Re
publican tariff by business pros
perity. To a Republican Congress
and a Republican President this
great question can be safely in
trusted. When the only free trade
country among the great nations
agitated a return to protection the
chief protective country should not
falter in maintaining it.
reciprocity
We have extended wisely our
foreign markets, and we beleive in
the adoption of all practicable
methods for their further extension,
including commercial reciprocity
wherever reciprocal arrangements
can be effected consistent with the
principles of protection and with
out injury to American agriculture,
American labor or any American
industry.
GOLD STANDARD
We believe it to be the duty of
the Republican party to uphold the
gold standard and the integrity
and the value of our National cur
rency. I be maintenance ot tne
gold standard, established by the
Republican party, cannot be safely
committed to the Democratic party
which resisted its adoption and has
never given any proof since that
time of belief in it, or fidelity to it
MERCHANT MARINE
While every other industry has
prospered under the fostering aid of
Republican legislation, American
shipping engaged in foreign tiade
in competition with the low cost of
construction, low wages and heavy
subsidies of foreign governments,
has not for, many years received
from the government of the United
States adequate encouragement of
any kind. We therefore, layor leg
islation which will encourage and
build up the American merchant
marine, and we cordially approve
the legislation of the last Congress
which created the merchant marine
commission to investigate and re
port upon the subject.
WAVY
A navv powerful enoueh to de-
j w
fend the United States against any
attack, to uphold the Monroe doc
trine and watch oyer our commerce
is essential to the safety and the
welfare of the American people.
To maintain such a navy is the
fixed policy of the Republican
party. ,

We are always mlndiul of the

INTERNATIONAL ARBITRATION

We commend th tigorou effort
made by the Administration to
protect American citixena in foreign
lands, and pledge ourselves to in
sist upon the juat and equal pro
tection of alLour citizen abroad.
It is the unquestioned duty of the
government to procure for all our
citiien, without distinction, th
right of travel and sojourn in
friendly countries, and we declare
ourselyes in favor of all proper ef
forts tending to that end.
Our ereat interests and our grow-
ing commerce in the Orient render
the condition of China of high im
portance to Ihe United States. W e
cordially commend the policy pur
sued in that direction by the ad
ministrations of Presidents McKln
ley and Roosevelt.
EXECUTIVE FRANCHISE
We favor such congressional
action as shall determine whether
by special discrimination the elec
tive franchise in any state has been
unconstitutionally limited, and if
such is the case we demand that
representation in Congreea and in
the electoral college shall be pro
portionately reduced, a directed by
the constitution of the United
States.,
TRUSTS
Combinations of capital and ot
labor are the results of the econo
mic movement of the age, but
neither must be permitted to in
fringe upon the rights and interests
of the people. Such combinations
when lawfully formed for lawful
purposes, are alike entitled to the
protection of the laws, and neither
can te permitted to break tbem.
' MCKINLEY AND ROOSEVELT .
The great statesman and patri
otic American, William McKinley.
who was re-elected by the Repub
lican party to the Presidency four
years ago, was assassinated just at
the threshold of his second term
The entire nation mourned bis un
timely death, and did that justice
to his great qualities of mind and
character which history will con
firm and repeat.
The American people were fortu
nate in his successor, to whom they
turned with a trust and confidence
which have been fully justified
President Roosevelt brought to the
great responsibilities thus sadly
forced upon him, a clear hand, a
brave heart, an earnest patriotism,
and high ideal of public duty and
public service. True to the prin
ciples of the Republican party and
to the duties to which the party
had declared, he has also shown
himself ready for every emergency
and has met new and vital ques
tions with ability.
The confidence of the people in
bis justice, inspired by his public
career, enabled him to render per
sonally an inestimable service to
the country by bringing about a
settlement of the coal strike which
threatened such disastrous results
at the opening of the winter in
1902.
Our foreign policy under his ad
ministration ba not only been able
vigorous and dignified but in th
highest degree successful. The
complicated questions which arose
in Venezuela were settled in such a
war by-President Roosevelt that
the Monroe doctrine was signally
Vindicated and the cause of peace
and arbitration greatly; advanced.:
