REPUBLICAN PUTF02A PHTtADKLWU Following 1 the fall text of the platform dopUd by lb Ve- poblican Nuiloual oonveutioa 1 Th Kepnblieuciot th United Stat, tbroaKh their ohoaan repre ntariya. anal in national oooyentioa, looking back npou aa amnrpaaaad raeord el chiayrment, and looking forward Into a great Held of doty and opportnity and appealing to the judgment of their eonntrrmen, mak theaa declaration; The expectation in which th Ameri can peopla, torninf from th Democnttio party, intruited power fonr year ago to a Eepnblioan chief magistrate and a Republican congTesa, baa been mat and aatinfled. Wheu th paopl than a aembled at th poll after a term of Pt-mocratio legislation and administra tion, bniine 1 wa dead, indiutry para lyaed and tl.a national credit dia&itroo ly inipnired. . Th country capital wn biddun away and it labor dutrea- d and nueuiployed. Th Demoorata had no other plan with which to lm prove the miaou condition which they tad tbemeelye produced than to coin UTur at tit ratio of 1 to X. Pmapcrlty Braaaht By BapebUaaa. The Republican party denoandn hi plnn aa nr to prod no condition even worse thao thou from which r lief waa sought, promised to re tor prosperity by mean of two legialativ measures a protect iv tariff and a law making gold th standard of Tain. The people by great majorities issued to lb Republican party a commission to enact the law. This commission ha been executed and th Republican premise is redeemed. Prosperity mar neutral aud more abundant than w hay ever known ha followed these enactments. There 1 no longer any controversy aa to th value of any gov. eminent obligation. Every American dollar 1 a gold dollar or It assured equivalent, and American credit stand higher than 'that of any other nation. Capital la fully employed and every where labor la profitably occupied. No single fact can more strikingly tell th story of what Republican govern msnt mean to tha couutry than this that while during the whole period from 1801 to 1897 there was an excess of ex ports over imports of ouly $.'188,034,407, there hus been ill the short three year of the present KepublieanadiniuUtrationaa excess of export over import la tb euormona ran of $1,483,738,094, and whllo the American people, sustained by this Republican legislation, have been achieving these splendid triumph In tl.elr business aud commerce, they bay conducted aud iu victory conclud ed a war for liberty and human right. War for Llb rty Nat Agaraaatasaaeaia, No thought of national aggrandis anent taruu ad the,hbjh riurvoae with which Amerioau standard were un furled. It wa a war an sought and patiently re aimed, but when it came the Americau government waa ready. It fleet were cleared for action. It arm ies were in th field, and th quick and signal triumph of its forces on land and sea bore equal tribute to, th skill and foresight of Republican statesmanship, To 10,000,000 of the human race there wa given "a new birth of freedom, and to th American people a aw and aoble responsibility. laaeraaaaeai af rvaetdaal KfaKlalaf, We indora th administration f William McKlnley. It act have been established in wisdom and in patrlo lsm, and at home and abroad It ha dis tinctly elevated and extended th infla ace of th American nation. Walk ing untried path and facing unforeseen reeponatbilit.es. President MoKlnUy ha been in every situation th trae Ameri eaa patriot and upright statesman, alaae la vision, arrong In Judgment, firm la action, always Inspiring and deserving th eonfideno of hi countrymen. In asking th Amerioan people to in dorse this Republican record and to re new their oommtaaion to tha RepabhV eaa party, we remind them of th faot that th menace to their prosperity ha always resided in Democratic principle and no leas in the general Incapacity of tba Democratic party to conduct pnblie affair. Th prim essential of busi ness prosperity is public eonAdeaoe la th good sense of the goreraaaeat and it ability to deal Intelligently with all new problem of administration and legislation. That eonfldenoe the Demo cratic party ha never earned. It la hopelessly Inadequate, and th country's prosperity, when Democratic success at th poll is announced, bait and eaaaee in mere antisipation of Democratic blunder and failure. Dealaraliaa far tbe Gold SUtaar4. W renew our allegiance to th pria edple of th gold stundard, and declare our eonfldenoe in th wiadom of th legislation of th Fifty sixth 00c great by which tba parity of all our money and the stability of our currency on a gold baais baa beeu secured. W reoognixe that interest rate are a po tent factor In production and bnsiues activity and for th pnrpoee of furthar equalising aud of further lowering th rate of interest we favor such mone tary legislation a will euabl lb vary ing need of th season and of all e tioa to be properly met in order that trade mar be evenly sustained, labor steadily employed aud commaro SB larged. Tbe volume of mouey la alr emlatloa was never so great per capita aa It U today. W declare our steadfast oppoaitioa to la free and unlimited ooinage of silver. No mean are to that aud could be eoaatdered which waa without th support of th leading commercial coua tri ef th world. However firmly lUpuhlioaa legislation may esera M have secured the country agaiaat th fwrtl of be. and discredited wnaoy th leetiesi ef a Democratic prasideBt eould aet fail to impair the oeaa try's eredit aad to briag oaoe ssor into que. tiea theiateatlnn of the Am art can ps la te nmiutaia upva lb gald ataaaard tb paiiry of their money cireuWtioa. Th Dvmocratlo party Biuat bo eon Tinned that th Atuerloaa peoplo Will never tolerate th Chicago plaUona. On tb Qaaatlaa ml Traeea, W reongnia th necessity aad ar priety of lb honeet ee-cperatioa of eaa ital to meet new butiiiea eoodittona, and especially to extend oar rapidly lay creasing foreign trade, bat wo snaflsaia all eonKpirarie aad rmaMasrlnaa lav leaded to restrict baatneai, k aaate aaaawpoUea, to ttaail ai ulai etoa or a laHoa aa will factually restrain ant nreveal all such abuse, proteet and promote com petition and sec ore tha right of producer, laborer aud all Who are engaged la industry ana com Bseroa, . peelaratlea tot Praleetlua. We renew oar faith In the policy of protection to American labor. In that policy our Industrie have been estab lished, diversified and maintained. By protecting tbe home market, the com petition hat been stimulated and pro duel ion cheapened. Opportunity the Inveutiv genius of our people ha beea ecured and wage in very depart. ineut of labor have been maintained at high rates, higher bow than aver before, thus distinguishing our workiug paopl in their better conditions of life from tboaa of any competing country. En joying the blessing of American com mon school, secure in the right of self government and protected in th ooco pancy of their own market their oca stantly increasing knowlcg and skill bv mauled them finally to enter the market of th world. We favor tb associated poller of reciprocity, so di rected aa to open our market on favor able term for what w do not oursalve prod no in return for fre foreign mar ket. In th further interest of American workman, w favor a more effective re striction of tha immigration of cheap labor from foreign lands, the extension of opportunities of education for work ing obildreu, the raising of tbe age limit for child labor, the protection of free labor a against oonvict labor and aa ff active system of labor insurance.'; Our present dependence on foreign shipping for niua-teuths of our foreign carrying is a great loo to tli industry of thia country. It is alo a serious danger to our tiade tor it t-udduu with, drawal in the event of a Kiuopenu war would seriously cripple our expanding foreign commerce.

The adminis tration baa acted wisely in it effort to escure for publio servioe lu Cuba, Porto Rico, Hawaii and the Philippines only those whose fitness has beeu determin ed by training aud experience. We be lieve that employment in the publio aervioe in these territorie ahould be confined, a far a practicable, to their Inhabitants. It wa the plain purpose of the Fif teenth amend men t to the constitution to prevent discrimination on account of lac or color in regulating the elective franchise. Device of states govern ments, whether by statutory or consti tutional enactment, to avoid the pur nose of thia ameudinent are revolution ary and should be condemned. Publio movement looking to a per manent improvement of the roads aad highways of the country meet with our cord inl approval, and we recommend this subject to the earnest consideration of the people and of the legislature of ta several state. . We favor th extension of the rural free delivery aer-risc wherever its sx- may be justified. Bealamattea af And Laada, In the further pursuano of th eon- Stent policy of th Republican party to BTovid free borne on th publio do main, we recommend adequate national legislation to reclaim the arid land of tha United Stale, reserving control of the diatributioa of water for irrigation to th resaeotiT states and territories, We favor home rule for and tbe early admission to statehood of the territories Of New Mexloo, Arisona and Oklahoma.

It Is entirely within the range of probability that the present combination of the great nations against China and their forcible en trance into its capittl, will shake that country out of its lethargy, and com pel it lo adopt modern ideas in be government and iu its relations lo the rest of the world.

Now here are facts : There was no war ' In the Philip pines when Dewey camo. There I ad beet, an luaurrectiou -not for in dependence, but for reforms. Hpaio overcame the rebellion, partly by Bghtiug, partly by promising the re forms, and partly by bribing Aguiu aldo and other leading "patriots," with heavy sums of mouey, to leave the islands. War broke out lielweeu Spain and the Uuited Slates. Dewey's business was to attack Man ila aud destroy the Spinish fleet lying there. Then he needed a land force to aid iu holding the purl, aud Aguinaldo applied for permission to come over and Help iu the organiza tion of a uative'mllitia. In making ihlsrequest Aguiutildo did not ask for independence. He was to be under Dewey's direction.

When he thought the opportune mo ment had come, he attacked our troops. This, in brief, is the whole mutter. It was perfectly allowable, t-i.tirely within the usages of war, for Dewey to arm the natives to light the Span iards. Rut that did 111. 1 commit the United Miles to any promise of inde pendence to them. Such promise was not even implied. Wc had taken the country pretlM-ly as we took California. And iu fact, the Filipiune rendered us no actual service. Troops n arrived fro.i. the United Slates, who did the land fighting. The na tive were as poor soldiers in the employ of the Umt-tl Siales as they have since been aa enemies of the United States. Not only did they not "gain Hjssessiou of the laud til their birth by a successful appeal to arms," but they hud proved utterly incapable of doing It, and long before the Americans came J hey bad desist ed from tbe attempt and Aguinaldo had left the islands to enjoy the bribe the Spaniards hail promised him. Here are the leading facts. It is a case of simple rebellion. The title ol the United St .tea Is as gutai as any title we have to acquired ler. iiory.
