popular and historic -ju-ititicatiiw of
their claims to the ma'clileut acluevo-
men! of thirty yettra of H.'pubiiciiu
rule, earnest y and confidently ad Ireas
tlieiui-elves to the a waki-ne I intelligence,
ccporijuce aiidcunscit uce of their coun
trymen in the following d.-clarution of
flirts and principles :
For the fir t time since the Civil Wur
the American i euple have witnessed the
calauiitoua eonsequcnex's of full u:ul ru
stricWd Democratic control of tlu- (i,n-.
ernment. It has been a record f unpar
ulieled incapacity, dishonor and (lighter.
In adtuinit alive iiiumigrment it h.is
ruthlessly aacriliced ludispenaable reve
nue, entailed an iiicrousina delU ir, eked
out ordinary current expenses with bor
rowed inorey, piled up the public debt
by I'.'lia.OnO.uuU in lime of peace, forced
an adverse balance of trade, kept a per
petual mena1 ehantrinir over the redemp
tion rnnd. i nwned Amei ioan credit t
alien ayndicates, and reversed nil the
measures and results of ancoeasful Re
publican rule. In the broad effect of it
policy it haa precipitated panic, blighted
indutry and trade with prolonged de
pression, closed f iclones, reduced work
and wages, halted enterprise and crip
pled American production, while istiiniv
lating foreign priilut'tim for the Amer
ican market. Every consideration of
public safety and individual interest de
mands that the Government i-hall be
resotied from the hands of those who
have show n themselvts incapable to con
duct it without disahter at home and
dishonor abroad, and shall be restored
to tha party which fur thirty years ad
ministered it with Unequalled sticcesa
and prosperity.
THE TARIFF.
We renew and emphasize our alle
giance to the policy of protection ns the
bulwark of an American industrial in-
depence and the foundation of Ameri
can development and pross'nty. This
true American policy taxes foreign tiro
ducts and encourages home industry.
and it puts the burden of revenue on
foreign goods; it secures the American
market lor the American producer! it
upholds the American statulaidof wages
for tha American workingman; it puts
the factory by the side of the farm, and
make tha American farmer leistleieiiil
ent on foreign demand and price; ii
diffuses general thrift, and founds the
strength of all on the strougth of each.
In iu reasonable application it is just,
fair aud impartial, equally opposed t
foreign control and domestic monopolv;
to (actional discrimination and individ
ual favoritism,
Wa denounce the present Democrat c
t .rifl as sectional, injurious to the ptilt
lio crtdit aud destructive to business en
terprise. We demand such an equital lo
tariff on foreign imports which come
Into competition with American pro
ducts as will not only furnish adequate
revenue for the nec-essary expenses of
tha 'iovernnietit, but will protect Amer
ica labor from the degradation to the
wage level or other lands. We are n .t
pledged to any particular schedules.
1 he question of rates is a practical ques-
iwb, to Da governed by ihe condition
f tha time and of production; the nil
lag and. uncompromising principle is
the protection "and development of
American labor and industry. The
country demands a right settlement,
auu men n wants a rest.
RECIPROCITY.
We believe the repeal of the reciproc
ity arrangements negotiated by the last
Republican administration was a na
tional culamity. and we demand their
renewal ana extension upon such terms
as will equalize our trade with other
nations, remove tha testr ctior.a which
now obstruct the sale of American pro
ducts in the ports of other countries,
and aeenre enlarged markets for the pro
ducts of our farms, forests aud facto
ries.

MONEY.
Tha Repubiicau party is unreservedly
for sound money. It caused the enact
ment of the law providing for the re
sumption of specie payment iu 187U;
aiuce then every dollar has been as god
as gold; we Rre unalterably opposed to
every measiue calculated to debase our
currency or impair tiie credit of our
country. We are, therefore, opposed t
the fr.e coinage of silver except by iu
teruationai agreeiUimt with lito leauin
commercial nations of the world, win
wa pledge ourselves to promote, an
until such agreement can i obtaiued
the exiatiug gold standard must be pre
served. All our silver and patier cur
rency must be maintained at pari:
with gold, and we favor all measures
designed to maintain inviolably tiieoit-
ligations of the United Mates and a
onr money, wtiet her coin r paer, at the
present standard, the Ktatulard of the
most enlightened nations of tiie earth.
PENSIONS.
The veterans of the Union armies di
serve aud should receive fair treatment
aud generous recognition. Whenever
practicable they should lie given the
preference in the matter of employ
tuuul, and they are euii'h d to the en
aclinent of such laws as are best calcu
lated to secure the fiillillmeut of the
pledges made to them iu the dark day
ol the country s perm We denounce
the practice in the pension bureau,
recklessly and unjustly carried on by
the present Administration, of reducing
pensions aud arbitrarily drooping names
troin the rolls us deserving the severest
condemnation of the American people.
FOREIGN RELATIONS.
Our foreign policy should be at ail
times hnn, vigorous and diguttied, and
all our interests in the Western hemis
phere carefully watched aud guarded.
The Hawaiian islands should be con
trolled by the United States, and no
foreign power should be permitted to
interfere with them. The Nicaragua
canul should be built, owned and oper
ated by the United States, and by the
purchase or the Danish islands we
should secure the proper and much
needed naval station iu the West Indies,
ARMENIAN MASSACRES.
Tha massacres iu Armenia have
aroused the deep sympathy and just in
dignation of the American people, and
we believe the United States should
exert all the influence it can properly
exert to bring these atrocities toau emL
In Turkey American residents have
been exposed to the gravest dangers and
American property uesiroyeu. mere
and everywhere American citizens and
American properly must las absolutely
protected at all hazards and at any cost.
MONROE DOCTRINE.
We reassert the Monroe doctrine in
its fullest extent and we reafliriu the
right of the L'nited States to give the
doctrine effect by responding to the ap
peals of any American state for frieiidir
lutervention in case of European en
croachment. We have not interfered
and fehall not interfere with the existing
possessions of any European power in
this hemisphere, but those possessions
must not, on any pretext, be extended.
We hopefully look forward to the even
tual withdrawal of tiie European pow
ers from this hemisphere and to the
ultimate union of all English-speaking
parts of the continent by the free con
sent of its inhabitants.
CUBA,
From the honrof 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 domina
tion. We watch with deep and abiding
interest the heroic battle of the Cuban
patriots aga ist cruelty and oppression,
and onr best hopes go out for the full
stiec-as of their determined contest for
liberty. The Government of Spain hav
ing lost control of Cuba, anil being un
able to protect the property or lives cf
resident American citizens or to comply
With its treaty obligations, we believe
the Government of tha United States
shonld actively use its influence and
good offices to restore peace and give in
dependence to the island.
THE NAVY.
The peace and security of the repub
lic and the maintenance of its rightful
influence among the uations of the earth
demand a naval powr commensurate
with ita position and responsibility.
We therefore favor the continued en
largement of the navy and a complete
system of harbor and sea coast defenses.
FOREIGN IMMIGRATION.

RIGHTS OF WOMEN,
The Republican party la mindful ot
tha righta of women. Protection of

We favor the admission of women to
wider spheres of usefulness, and wel

Such are tha principles and policies of
tha Republican party. By these prinoi

Ans. No. Tho Government is
barely able to do so now, after having
stopied tho coinage, with about
ftiiM),(l(M,ooO of coined dollars and
bullion in circulation and in the
Treasury. When it coins for private
parties it only guarantees weight and
Itnenesn, ami not value.
What would lie the result if the
Government should be unable to
keep its frl-ecnt silver dollars upon a
parity with gold?
Ans. The moment that happened
the silver dollar would decline to
lifty-threo cents, its bullion value
just as it has done In Mexico.
I : ven in that case, would not the
vast circulation of silver increase the
price of everything and make busi
ness more pronorouh?
Ans. It would uot lucrease tho
value but would increse the price in
prortion as silver would decrease
in value, which would doubtleaa con

This extract from the bolting re
publicans' address telling ailverites to
support Bryan, contains three dis
tinct misrepresentations, either di
rectly or by implication that gold
and silver are "esa?clally recogni.isj
by the Constitution;" thut gold and
diver circulated together from 1 712
lo HT:!; that "the condition of all
classes" was better from 1792 to 1 87:1
than it has been since. The Consti
tution says that "no state shall
make anything but gold and silver
coin a tender for payment of debts,"
but the Constitution nowhere says
that Congress shall make nothing
but these a tender, or shall coin both
f them or either. Theoretically the
loul.le standard from 17l' lo ls,7:t,
but under the . to 1 ratio from 17H2
