The Republicans ol tho United States, assembled by their delegates in National convention, pause on the thoshold of their proceedings to honor the memory of their ilrst great leader, the immortal champion of liberty and the rights of the people Abraham Lincoln; and to cover also with wreaths of imperishable remembrance and gratitude the heroic names of later leaden, who have more recently been called away from our councils (Srant, Uarlield, Arthur, Logau and Conkhng. May their memories bo faithfully cher ished. We also recall with our greetings and with prayer for his recovery tho name ol one of our living heroes whoso memory will bo treasured in the history both of Republicans and of the Republic the name of that noble soldier and favorite son of victory, Philip II Sheiidan, In thu spirit of those great leaders, and of our own devotion to human liberty, and with that hostility to all forms of despot ism and oppression which is the funda mental idea of tho Republican party, vie sond fraternal congratulations to our fel low Americans of Iliazil upon their great net ol emancipation, which completed the abolition of slavery throughout the two American continents. Vo earnestly hope that we may soon congratulate our follow citizens of Irish birth upon the peaceful recovery of home rule for Ireland. We allirm our unswerving devotion to tho National Constitution and to the in dissoluble Union of the states : to the au tonomy reserved the states under the Con stitution : to the personal rights and liber, ties of cititens in all the States and Terri tories in tho Union, and especially to tho supreme and sovereign right of every lawful citizen, rich or poor, nativo or foreign born, white or black, to cast one frco ballot in public elections, and to have that ballot duly counted. We hold tho free and honest popular ballot, and the just and equal representation of all tho people, to be the foundation of our republican government, and demand ef fective legislation to secum the integrity and purity of elections, which are tho fountains of all public authority, Wc chargo that the present administration and tho Dcmocratio majority in Congress owe their existence to the suppression of the ballot by a criminal nullification of the Constitution and laws of tho United States. Wo are uncompromisingly in favor of the American system of protection. Wo protest against its destruction tiroposcd by thu piosidcnt and bis party. They servo the inleiesta of Ktuopc; wo will support tho interests of America. We ac cept the issues and cunhdently appeal to the people lor their judgmeut. The pro tective system must be maintained. Its abandonment has always been followed by general disaster to all interests, except thou of tho usurer and tlio sherilT. Wo denounce the Mills bill as destructive to tho gunoral business, thu labor and the farming interests of tho country, and we heaitily endorse tho consistent and p.itnotic actions of the Republican Rep resentatives lu Congress in opposing its passage. Wo condemn the proposition of the Democratic parly to plucc wool on the free list, and we insist that the duties thereon shall bo adjusted and maintained bo as to furnish full and adequate protection to that industry. The Republican party would effect a'l needed reduction of the National revenue by repealing tho taxos on tobacco, which are an annoyance and burden to agriculture, and the tax upon spirits used in the arts and for mechanical purposes; and by such icviUon of the tariff us will tend to check imports of such articles us are produced by our people, tho production of which gives cuiplo)iiient to our labor, and release Irom import duties those articles of foieign pro duction (except luxuries) tho like of which can not bo produced nt home. If there shall Hill remain a larger revenue that is requisite for the wants ot the government we favor tho entire repeal of internal taxes rather than the surrender of any part of our pioteotivo system at tho joint behest of the whisky tiusts and the agents of foreign manufacturers. We declare our hostility to the Introduc tion into this country of foreign contract labor, and of Chinese labor, alien to our civilimtlon and our Constitution, and we demand the rigid enforcement of the ex isting laws against it, and favor such im mediate legislation ks will exclude such labor from our shoies. We decUre our opposition to all eontbin atioui of capital organised in trusts or other wise, to control aibitiarily the condition ol tiade amoiig ourcitiseus, and we com mend to Congress aud to the btate l-egu-aturos, in their respective jurisdictions, tuoh legislation as will prevent the execu tion of all scheme to oppress the people by uuduechaigcs on their supplier, or by un just tales for the liAiiipoitation of their products to niMkct. W o appiove the leg. tslatlou by Congress to prevent alike un just burdcua and unfair discriminations be tueeu the SUtes. We imHuui the policy of apnionriating the publio lands of tho United State to b hometteadk for American oiliiens and set tlers, not aliens, which the Republican party established in lS6j, against the jiersisteut opposition of the Democrat in Congress, and which has brought our gre-it Western domain Into such magnificent development. The tttoration of uncart). sl land grants to the public domain for the uto of actual settlers, which was begun under the administration of I'restdeht Ar thur, should te ooutinued. We deny that the democratic party has ever restored one acre to the people, but declate that by the joint action of tepubltcaus aud democrats, about fifty millions ot sorts of unearned lands originally granted for the construe, tion of railroads have been reiloied to the public domain, in pursuance of the comli. ttous inserted by the lepublicaa party in Ilia original punts. We charge the dem. ooratic admiouttatloo with failure to exe. cute the law scouring to settler titles to their homesteads, and with using apt mo lUttous made for that purpose, to haras innocent settlers with spin and ptom. Uous uuJer false pivttttc of exposing frauds aod vindicating th law, Tbe government by Cougre oi the IVtilonM U Used upoi ueewsity eely, to the od that they may bceeroe SUUi w lb Uiou; thercwre , whenever the eeti dittoes of poivubutOB, material resource, public iBt4ltSK aud morally ar woh as ta soui a, stable !ol corctsmeet Ihsrvto, tb porJ of tuch Tamtoilc should to jruttod, m a rthl Ubttwt i them, to form for themselves a constitution and State government, and be admitted into the Union. Pending the prepara tion for Statehood, all officers thereof should be selected from the bona fide residents and citizen ot the Territory wherein they are to serve. South Dakota should of right be immediately admitted as a State in the Union, under the con stitution framed and adopted by the people, and we heartily indorse tho action of the Republican Senate in twice passing bills for her admission. The refusal of the Democratic House of Representatives, for paitisan purposes, to favorably consider these bills, s a willful violation of the sacred American nrindnle of local self-government, and merits the condemnation of all just men. Ihe pending bills in Ihe Senate for acts to enable the people of Washington, North uaxocaana Montana l erntones to form constitutions should be passed without unnecessary delay. The republican party pledges itself to do all in its Dower to fa cilitate the admission "of the territories of New Mexico, Wyoming, Idaho and Ari zona (o the enjoyment of self-government as states, such of them as are now quali fied, as soon as possible, and the others as soon as they may become so. The political power of tho Mormon church in the territories, as experienced iu the past, is a menace to free institutions too dangerous to be long suffered. There fore wo pledge the republican party to ap propriate legislation asserting tho sover eignty of the nation in all territories whero tho same is questioned, and in turtherance of that end to place upon the statute books legislation stringent enough to divorce the political from the ecclesias tical power, and thus stamp out the attendant wickedness of polygamy. Tho republican party is in favor of the use of both gold and silver as money, and condemns (lie policy of the democratic administration in its efforts to demonetize silver. Wo demand the reduction of letter postage to i cent per ounce. In a republio like ours, where the citizen is the sovereign and the official the servant, whero no power is exercised excopt by the will of the people, it is important that the sovereign the people should possess intelliccnco. The free school is the promoter of that intelligence which is to preserve us a free nation; therefore, the state or nation, or both combined, should support freo institutions of learning, suflicient to afford to every child growing up in the land the oppor tunity of a good common school edu cation. Wo earnestly recommend that prompt action be takon by Congress in the en actment of such legislation as will bet secure tho rehabilitation of our American merchant marine, and wo protest against the paBsago by Congress of a free ship bill, as calculated to work injustice to labor by lcsscuing the wages of those engaged in preparing materials, as well as thoso directly employed in our ship yards. We demand appropriations for the early tebuildiiig of our navy; for the construction of coast fortifications and modern ordnpiice, and oilier approved modern means of defense for the protec tion of our defenseless harbors and cities; tor the payment of just pensions to our soldiers; lor necessary works of National importance in the improvement of harbors and the channels of internal coastwise, and foreign commerce; for the encouragement of tho shipping interests of the Atlantic, Gulf and I'uciho States, as well as for the na men t of the matuiing public debt. This policy will give em ployment to our labor, activity to our va rious industries, increase the security of our country, promote trade, opon new end direct markets for our produce, and cheapen the cost of transportation. We ntlirm this to be far better for our country than the democratic policy of loaning tho government money without interest to "pet banks." The conduct of foreign nflaiia by the present administration has been distin guished by its inelliciency and its coward ice. Having withdrawn from the Senate all pouding treaties effected by republican administration for the removal of foreign burdens and restrictions upon our com merce, and for its extension into better mailtcts, it has neither eflected nor pro posed any others in their stead. Profess ing adherence to tho Muuroo doctrine, it has seen with idle complacency the exten sion of foreign influence in Central America, aud of foreign, trade everywhere among our neighbors. It has refused to charter, sanction or encourage any Amor, lean organisation for constructing the Nicaragua canal, a woik ot vital import ance to the maintenance of the Monroe doctrine, and of our national inlluence in Central and South America, and neces sary for the development ol trade with our Pacific territory, with South America and with the islands and further coasts of the 1'aoihc Ocean. We arraign the present democratic ad ministration for its weak and uupatriotic treatment of the fisheries question, and Us pusillanimous surrender of the essen tial privileges to which our fishing vessels are enlitUd in Canadian porta uuder the treaty of iSlS, the reoiprocal maritime legislation of 18 to, and the comity of nations, and which Canadian fishing ves sels receive in the ports of the United State. We condemn the policy of the piesent administration and the democratic majority iu Congres toward our fisheries as uulnendly aud conspicuously unpatri otic, and as tending to destroy a valuable national mdustry, aud an indispeusable reMurc o defense against a foreigu enemy, The name of America applies alike to all citiiens ol the republic, and imposes up, all alike the ume obligations of obedience to ihe laws. At the same tlm that oitixeuihlp i and must be the pan oply and safeguard of him who wear it, and protect lilm, whether high or low, rich or poor, in his cull rights. It should aad must afford him protection, at home, and follow and protect hiru abroad in whatever land he may be on a lawful errand. The men who abandoned the republican party in 1S&4, and continue to adhere to the dcmoeiaue party, have deserted net only Ihe cause of hooest government, of sound finances, of freedom aad purity of the ballot, but especially have descitcd the wine of reform in th civil sukc. Wo will not fail to keep our pledge be cause they hav broken thetn', orbeaac their .oaiubdat has broken his. We, UiMfoft, tepeat our declaration of 1884, lo-wMj 'The ttAxtu of the civil Mrrtev, aiMpiesouslr Ugua Bodr the irnuWlean adiMttiUe' should be cocnpltUd by lb further cittettoa ol the reform sytlwa already euUuhd by law, to a the grades of the service to which it is applic able. The spirit and purpose of the re form should be observed in all executive appointments, and all laws at variance with the object of existing reform legisla tion should be repealed, to the end that the danger to free institutions which lurks in the power of omcial patronage may be wisely and effectively avoided." The gratitude of the nation to the de fenders of the union can not be measured by laws. The legislation of Congress should conform to the pledges made by a loyal people, anil be so enlarged and ex tended as to piovide against the oossibility that any man who honorably wore tho federal nmform shall become the inmate of an almshouse, or dependent upon private charity. In the presence of an overflowing treasury it would be a public scandal to do less for those whose valor ous service preserved the government. We denounce the hostile spirit shown bv President Cleveland in his numerous vetoes of measures for pension relief, and the action of th: democratic house of representatives in refusing even a consid eration of general pension legislation. In support of the principles herewith enunciated we invite the co-operation of patriotic men ol all parties, and especially ol all workingmen whose prosperity is seriously threatened by the free trade policy of the present administration. Additional clank submitted bv Mr. Boutclle of Maine, and adopted by an almost uuanimous vete: The first con cern ot all good government is the virtue and sobriety of Ihe people and the puiity of the home. The republican party cordially sympathizes with all wise and well directed efforts for the promotion of temperance and morality. -FOR THE HOMELESS!!! 12oo ACRES -OF- VARIED LAND -FOR- Sale or Rent.
