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

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

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

tioa to be properly met in order that
trade mar be evenly sustained, labor

aa It U today.
W declare our steadfast oppoaitioa
to la free and unlimited ooinage of

be eoaatdered which waa without th
support of th leading commercial coua

We renew oar faith In the policy of
protection to American labor. In that
policy our Industrie have been estab

protecting tbe home market, the com

duel ion cheapened. Opportunity the

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 n..tioual de
fense and naval efficiency of this coun
try, moreover, supply a oouipelling ran
sob for legulatlou which will enable as
to recover our former place among the
trade carryiug flWs of th world.
Libera. Paaaltta Laws 'avorsd.
The natiou owe a debt of profound
gratitude to the soldiers and sailors who
have fought its battles, and it ia the gov
ernment' duty to provide for the sur
vivor aud for the widows aud orphans
of those who have fallen in the coun
try' war. Th pension lnws founded
In this just sentiment should be lateral
and should be liberally adminiatered,
an J. preference should be given, wher
ever practicable, with refcpect to em
ployment In the publio servioe, to sol
dier and Bailor and to their widows
aadopbana.
Babileeas an the Civil Ssrvtea.
W commend the policy of the Re
publican party In maintaining tb eOlci-
onoy of the civil service. 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.

The Dingley act, amended to pro-
Tide snf&oient revsnus for the conduct
f the war, ha ao wall performed It
work that It baa beea possible to reduo
the war debt la th sum of $40,000,000,
So am pi are th government's revenues
aad ao great 1 th publio oonfideno In

aewly faaded two per cent bond aall
at a premium. Th country is bow
jestiaed ta expecting aad K will be the
policy of the Repablieaa party to bring
aboat a reduotloa of the war taxes.
Wa favor th construction, owner

Yet neve, in the thousands of years
ol itt career has a situation presented
Itself to China which at all resembles
that which i-ouiroula it at this

Half a doaeu oaiiona -Russia, En

result of the present trouble. Oer
nuoy, E igland, Rj sia and the other
tihtioi-s have ta-eu making prepare
ti'tns for an ext-tnded caicpalgo. The
iitriiiilou ha been to have a com
bined force of the allies in China of
considerably over 100,000 within two
month from the preaeul time, and
the preparatioua are rtdl under way.

It ha been conceded by Japanese
statesmen lhat ' Hie forcible own

world by Perry, of the Uuited States
uavy, in 1864, at which time that
country made, with the United
Mattes, the lirsl commercial treaty
she ever entered into with any na
tiou, marked the birth of Japan as a
modem stale, T eatiesof the same
sort were entered Into by Japan with
England aud Ruaiit in the next year
or two, aud an embassy was sent out
which, visiting the United Miates
earlier thai, it old any other country,
made a tour to Europe, aud carried
home modern ideas which Immedi
ately changed the current f Japan's
history. It Is entirely within the
range of probability that the present
combination of the great nations
against China and their forcible en

country out of its lethargy, and com

The Uuard, of court, never has paid
any atleutiou to the report of the
Pntilppiue Commission, It never has
examiued the slat ments of Admir .1
Dewey, Coloiu-I Deuby, Dr. Wi rces-r-r,
or any authority thai could give
information at first baud, it lakes
iti knowledge from partiaau utter
ances, prepared aud arranged for tbe
purpose of a political campaign
against the bogy ol imperialism,"
J Uot as hitherto it has taken its econ
omic kuowledge from the partiaau
philosophy of 10 to 1. 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. Rut he
soon began to poison the natives
sgainst Hie Uuit-d States and wheu
he had got a considerable quantity oft'
arms, and saw that hi.tnish sover
eignty was at au end, lie proclaimed
himself dictator and prepared to
light the torces of the United States.
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. Whether we
shall stay or quit ia another question
Aod that includes the question 00
the one hand whether it is gotal o.
Icy to stay, and on the other whether
we shall be ruled by courage or by
cowardice. We have the rigid, polit
ical and moral, before the whole
world, to stay, and il ha not 1st n
