THE TARIFF.
We renew mi l cniiihasize our alle
giance to the policy .f protection as the
bulwark of ..n Aim rican imluslriul in

can development and prosperity. Thin

Into competition wilh American pro

PENMOXS.
The veterans of the Union armies de
serve and tdiould receive fair treatment
aud generous recognition. Whenever
practicable they should lie given the
preference in the matter of employ
ment, and they nre entitled to tha en-
fact men t of such laws as are best calcu
lated to secure tha fulfillment of the
pledges made to them in the dark days
of the country's peril. Wo denounce
the practice in the jicnsion bureau, go
recklessly and unjustly carried on by
the present Administration, of reducing
pensions and arbitrarily dropping names
from the rolls as deserving the severest
condemnation of the American people.
FOREIGN RELATIONS,
Our foreign policy should be at all
times firm, vigorous and ilwiifiod, 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
foreign power should be permitted to
interfere with them. The Nicaragua
canal should lie built, owned and oper
ated by the Uuitetl States, aud by the
purchase or the uamsli islands we
should secure the proper snd much
needed naval station iu 1 he West Indies,
ARMEMIAN MASSACRES,
The massacres iu Armenia have
aroused the deep sympathy aud inst in
dignation of the American people, and
we believe the United States should
exert all the influence it can proierly
exert to briug these atrocities toau end.
In Turkey American residents have
been exposed to the gravest tbingers and
American property destroyed. There
and everywhere American citizens and
American properly mu-t ba absolutely
protected at all hazards .nid at any cost.
MONROE DOCTRINE.
We reassert tha Monroe doctrine in
its fullest extent and we reaffirm the
right of the United States to give the
doctrine effect by rosp.mdinjr to the ap
peals of any American state for friendly
intervention in case of European en
croachment. We have not interfered
and shall not interfere with the exuding
possessions of any European power in
tnis neuiispliere, hut those possessions
must not, on any pretext, be extended.
SVe hopefully look forward to the even
tual withdrawal of Die European pow
ers from this hemisphere and to the
ultimate union of all English-speaking
parts of the continent by tbe free con
sent of its inhabitants.
CUBA.
From the hour of achieving their ffn
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 tho heroic buttle of the C'nbnn
patriots aga ist cruelty and oppression,
and our beet hopes jro ont for the full
success of their determined contest for
liberty. The Government of Spain hav
ing lost control of Cuba, and being un
able to protect the property or lives cf
resident American citizens or to comply
With its treaty obligations, we lielieve
the Government of the United States
should actively use its influences and
good offices to restore peace and give in
dependence to the island.
THE NAVY.
The peace and security of the repnb
lic and the maintenance i Tits liuVfit'
influence among the nations of thetlttS
demand naval povr commensurate
with ita position nnd responsibility.
We therefore favor the continued en
largement of the cavy nnd a complete
system of harbor and sen coast defenses.
FOREIGN IMMidRATIO.V.
For the protection of tin qn:t!ity of
onr American citizenship 'ind the wages
of onr workingmen .vraiust tha fital
competition of low-pric? I bibi.r, we de
mand that tbe immigration lies b
thoroughly uforced aud mj extended s
to exclude from entrance 1 1 the United
States those who can neither read nor
write.
CIVIL PER VICE.
Tiie civil service law was placed on
the statute books by the Republican
party, which lias alwnyi sustained i!,
and we renew onr repea'e 1 declarations
that it shad bj thoroughly and honesCy
enforced and extended wherever practi
cable. FREE BALLOT.
We demand that every ctiz.Mi of the
United States shall Is! allowed to cast
one free and unrestricted ballet, and
that such ballot be counted and returned

LYNCHING.
We proclaim our unqualified condem
natio.i of the uncivilized and barbarous
practice, well known as lynthiua, or

NATIONAL AREITRATION.
