We Indorse the administration of
William McKlnley. Its acta have been
established in wisdom and in patriot
ism, and at home aud abroad it has db
tinotly elevated aud extended the lnflu

In vision, strong in Judgment, firm In
action, always insplnug and deserving
the eoundenoe of his eouutrymen.
In axklug the Amerioau people to In
dorse this Republican record and to re
new their oommiaaion to the Republi
can party, we remind them of the fact
that the menace to their prosperity haa
always resided In Democratio principles
and no less in ths general Incapacity of
the Democratic party to conduct publio
affairs. The prime essential of buai
neas prosperity is publio confidence in
the good sens of the govsrament and
lu ability to deal intelligently with all
uew problems of administration and
legislation. That ooundenoe the Demo
cratic party haa never earned. It la

We renew our ellegiauoe to the prin-J

our confl.leni in the wisdom of the
legislation of the Fifty sixth cougrsss
by which the parity of all our
money and the stability of our currency
oa a gold baxi bas beeu secured. We
recognise that Interest rates are a po
ts ut fa tor in production and business
activity and for the purpoas of further
equalising and of furtlisr lowsriug the
rates of interest we favor snuh moue

trade may be evenly susrainsd, labor
steadily employed aud commerce en
larged. The volume of mouey la cir
ealatlea was never so great per capita
as It la today. .
We declare our steadfast opposition

We renew our faith In the policy of
protection to American labor, lu that
policy our iudiutr.es have bee estab

protecting (be borne market, the com
petition has beeu stimulated and pro
d notion cheapened. Opportunity the

mou schools, secure in the right of self
government and protected lu the occu
pancy of their own markets their eou
atautly iucreasiug kuowlege aud skill
have enabled them finally to cuter the
markets of ths world. We favor the
associated policy of reciprocity, so di
rected aa to open our markets ou favor
able terms for what we do not ourselves
produce iu return for free foreigu mar
kets. In the further Interests of American
workmen, we favor a more effective re
striction of the immigratiou of cheap
labor from foreign lauds, the exteusiou
of opportunities of education for work
big ohildreu, the raising of the age
limit for child labor, lbs protection of
tree labor aa again at convict labor and
an effective system of labor iuxuiauce.
Our present' dependence ou foreigu
hipping for uiue tenths of our foreign
carrying is a great loea to ths industry
of this country. It is nl s serious
danger to our trade lor iu oucUleu with
drawal in the event of a European war
would Seriously cripple our expandiug
foreign commerce. The uutional de
fense and naval efficiency of this coun
try, moreover, supply a compelling rea
son for legislatiou which will enable us
to recover our former place among the
trade carrying fleets of ths world. .

The nation owes a debt of profound
gratitude to tbe soldiers aud sailors who
have fought its battles, and it ia the gov
ernment's duty to provide for the sur
vivors and for the widows and orphans
of those who have fallen iu the coun
try's wars. The peusiou laws founded
In this just seutiiuent should be liial

and preference should be given, wher

" Btspablleaas aaS the Civil Serview
We commend the policy of the Re
publican party in maintaining the effici
ency of the civil service. The adminis
tration has acted wisely in Its effort to
secure for publio service iu Cuba, Porto
Rico, Hawaii and the Philippines only
those whose fituoss has beeu determin
ed, by training and experieutw. We be
lieve that employment in tbe public
service in these territories should be
aonnned, as far as practicable, to their
InhabitauU.
It was the plain purpose of the Fif
teenth amendment to the constitution
to prevent discrimination on account of
race or color in regulatiug the elective
franchise. Devices of states govern
ments, whether by statutory or consti
tutional enactmeut, to avoid the par
nose ox this aineudineut are revolution,
ary aud should be condemned.
Public movements looking to a per
manent improvement of ths roads and
highways of the, couutry meet with Our
sordini approval, and we recommend
this subject to the earnest consideration
of the people aud of ths legislatures of
the Beyers! states.

In the further pursuance of the oon

Wa favor the construction, owner

In the Interest of our expanding oom

Oa ths Beath Arrtraa War.
The provisions of Tbe Hague oonvea
tion were wisely regarded when Presi
dent McKinley tendered his friendly
offices in tbe interest of peace between
Great Britain aud the South African
republics, w uus the American govern
maul must oontinus ths policy pre
scribed by Washington, amrmed by
every succeeding president. . and im
posed upou us by The Hague treaty, of
non-intervention In European contro

hope that n way may soon be found,
honorable alike to both contending par

In acoeptiug by the treaty of Paris
the just responsibility of our viotoriea
in tbe Spanish, war, the president and
the senate woa the undoubted approval
of the Amerioau people. No other
course was possible than to destroy
Spain's sovereignty throughout tha
West Indies and in the Philippines.
That oourss crested our responsibility
before ths world and with the unorgan
ised population whom our Intervention
had freed from Spain, to provide for
maintenance of law aad order, and for
the establishment of good government
and for the performance of international
obligations Our authority eonld not
be less than our responsibility, and
wherever sovereign rights were extend
ed, it became the high duty of the gov
ernment to maintain its aatbority, to
put down armed Insurrection and to

ization upon all tbe rescued peoples.
The largest measure of self-government
