Fullovrlnf la the faB text of tba platforts adopted by lite Be- Bsbliimn jMatioBai convention! The Kepablioaiiaof the United Stataa, throngh their chosen repreaentativea. let la national convention, looking bark apoa aa ananrpaaaad reaord of achievement, and looking forward Into a great field of doty and opportunity and appealing to the judgment of their onutrymeo, make these declarations: Tha expectation la which tba XtaetU can people, turning from tha Dcmocratio party, intrusted power four years aro to a Hepnhllqan chief magistrate and a Republican oonirresa, baa been mat and aatuiAed. Whan tba people than aa aenioled at tba polla after a term of l niocratio legialatlon and admlnlstra tion, bnaine a was dead, Industry para lysed and the national credit dlaaatroae ly Impaired. The oonntry'a capital waa hidden away and IU labor dUtreaa d and anemployad. Tha Democrat had no other plan 'with which to Im prove tha rulaooa condition whloh they had themselves prodnoed than to aula silver at the ratio of II to L Prosper!! Breeakt By KepaMleaa. The Republican party danoandBa this plan aa aura to prod uoa conditions even worse than those from which re lief waa Bought, promised to restore prosperity by means of two legislative measures a protective tariff and a law making gold tha standard of value. The people by great majorities Issued to the Republican party a commission to enact these lawa. This commission has been executed and th Republican promina la redeemed. Prosperity mora geueral and more abundant than w have ever known baa followed the euactniente. There la no longer any controversy aa to tha value of any gov. erument ob igationa. Every Americas dollar la a gold dollar or it assured equivalent, and American credit stands higher than that of any other nation. Capital la folly employed and every where labor la profitably ooonpled. no single fact can more strikingly tell tha story of what Republican govern ment mean to th oountry than tbie that while during the whole period from 1801 to 1897 there waa aa exoeaa of ex porta over import of only AViH3.0M.487. there has been in th abort three year of the present republican adntiuiittratiou an xoeaa of x ports over import la the enorraoua sum of 1,488,730,094, and while the American people, sustained by this Republican legislation, have been achieving thee aplendid triumphs in their bnsines and commerce, they nave conducted and In victory oonolnd- ed a war for liberty and human right.

En Joying the blessing of American com mon schools, Beenr in the right of aelf government and protected in th occu pancy of their own market their con stantly Increasing knowlegs and skill hav enabled them finally to enter th markeU of th world. We fuvor th associated policy of reciprocity, bo di reoted aa to open our market on favor- abl terms for what we do not ourselves produce in return for fro foreign mar- aera. In the further interests of Amerioaa workmen, we favor a more effective re striction of the ituniigratiou of cheap labor from .foreign lands, the extension of opportunities of education for work. leg cnuuren, the raising of the age limit for child labor, the protection of free labor aa against convict labor and aa effective system of labor Insurance. Our present dependence, on foreign hipping for nine-tenths of onr foreiini carrying Is a great losa to tli imluntry or tms oon u try. it is also a serious danger to our trade lor its fmlrien with' drawal in the event of a European war would seriously cripple our expanding foreign oommerce. The nutiniutl de fense and naval efltciouty of this ooun try, moreover, supply a compelling rea son for legislation which will e liable us to recover our former place smong th trad carrying Beets of the world. Liberal Pansloa Laws Favored. Th nation owe a debt of profound gratitude to the soldiers and sailors who have fought it battles, aud it is the gov. ernmeut's duty to provide for the ur- vlvor and for the widow and orphan of those who hav fallen in the ooun try' war. Th pension law founded la this just sentiment should bo liberal and should be liberally administered, and preference should be given, wher ever practicable, with rexpect to em ployment in th pnblio servloe, to sol dier and sailors and to their widow aad opbana. atepaklleaas at the Civil Service. W commend the oolW ef tbo K publican party in maintaining the efliol ency of th civil service. Th adminis tration ha acted wisely in iu effort to secure for publio servloe in Cuba, Porto Rioo, Hawaii and the Philippines only those whose fltuoa ha been determin ed by training and experience. W be lieve th it employment in th public servio in thee territories should be eon fine. 1, a far a practicable, to their ta habitants. It was the plain purpose of the Fif teenth amendment to the constitution to prevent discrimination on account of race or color in regulating th elective franchise.

Pnblio niovemenU looking to a per manent improvement of the roads aad higtrways of the oountry meet with our enrdial approval, and w recommend this subject to the earnest consideration of the people and of th legislatures of tae several states. W favor the extension of th rural free delivery servisce wherever iu ex teaslon may be justified. a.slamatl.a ar Ana LaaAa, la the further pnrsnanoe of th eon- Kant policy of the Republican party to provid free borne on the pnblie do asaia, we recommend adequate national legislation to reclaim the arid lands of the United States, reserving control of the distribution of water for irrigation to the respective tate and territories. We favor home rale for and th early admission to statehood of the territories ef Kw Mexioo, Alisons and Oklahoma. Wa Taaee aad Wleasmcae CaaaL The Dingley act, amended to cro- vtde sufficient revenue for the conduct f the war, baa o well performed lu work that it baa beea possible to rednoe the war debt ta the sum of 840,000,000.
