TIME SCHEDULE, (KxceptHundayh):
The Republicans ol the United States,
assembled by their delegates in National
convention, pause on the thoshold of their
proceedings to honor the memory of their
first great leader, the immortal champion
of liberty and the rights of the people
Abraham Lincoln; and to cover also
with wreaths ofimperishable remembrance
and gratitude the heroic names of later
leaders, who have more recently been
called away from our councils (..rant,
Oarlicld, Arthur, Logan and Conkliug.
May their memories bo faithfully cher
ished.
We also recall with our greetings and
with prayer for his recovery the name ol
one of our living heroes whose 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 the spirit of those gro.it leaders, and
of our own devotion to human liberty, and
wiih that hostility to all forms of despot
ism and oppression which is the funda
mental idea of tho Republican party, we
send fraternal congratulations to our fel
low Americans of Hrazil upon their great
act ol emancipation, which completed the
abolition of slavery throughout the two
American continents. Wo earnestly hope
that we may soon congratulate our fellow
cilizous of Irish birth upon the peaceful
iccovory of home rule for Ireland.
We nlliim our unswerving devotion to
the National Constitution and to the in
dissoluble Union of the states : to the au
tonomy reserved the states under tho Con
stitution : to the personal rights and liber
ties of citizens in all the States and Terri
tories in tho Union, and especially to
tho supreme and sovereign right of
evory lawlul citizen, rich or poor,
native or foreign born, white or black, to
cast ono freo ballot it. public elections,
and to have that ballot duly counted. We
hold tho freo and honest popular ballot,
ami the just and equal representation of
all the people, to be the foundation of our
ropubhean government, and demand ef
fective legislation to secure the integrity
and purity of elections, which are tho
fountains of all public authority, We
charge that the present administration
and tho Democratic majority in Congress
owe their existence to the suppression of
the ballot by a criminal nullibcatton ol the
Constitution and laws of tho United
States.
Wo are uncompromisingly in favor of
the American system of piotcctiou. We
protest against its destruction proposed
by tho president and his party. They
servo the iutciests of Kuiopc; wo will
support thu interests of America. We ac
cept tho issues and conlidently appeal to
the people for their judgment. The pro
tective system must be maiuta'ned, Its
abandonment has always been followed
by general disaster to all interests, except
those of tho usurer and tho sheriff. Wo
denounce the Mills bill as destructive to
the general business, thu labor and the
fanning interests of tho country, and we
heartily endorse tho consistent and
patriotic actions of the Republican Rep
resentatives in Congress in opposing its
passage

oaiUHly, Cnouire at Office of Cac-iUl Journal,
the proposition of the
Democratic paity to place wool on the free
list, and wc insist that the duties thereon
shall bo adjusted and maintained bo its to
furnish fair and adequate protection to
that industry.
The Republican parly would effect a'l
needed reduction of the National revenue
by rupcaling.tho taxes on tobacco, which
are nn annoyance and burden to agriculture,
and the tax upon spirits used in the arts
and for mechanical purposes; and by Buch
revision nl tlio tarill as will lend lo check
imports of such articles as are produced by
our people, tho production of which gives
employment to our labor, and release from
import duties those articles ol loruign pro
duction (except luxuries) tho like of which
can not oo produced at home. If there
shall still remain a larger revenue that ix
requisite for the wants ol tho government
we fuvor the entire repeal of internal
taxes lather than the surrender of
any part of our protective system at
tho joint behest of the whisky trusts and
tho agents of foreign manufacturers.
Wc declare our hostility lo the introduc
tion into this country of foreign contract
labor, and of Chinese labor, alien to our
civilization and our Constitution, and we
demand the ntnd enforcement of the ex
isting laws against it, and favor such im
mediate legislation us will exclude such
labor from our shores.
We declare our opposition to all combin
ations of capital organized in trusts or other
wise, to control arbitrarily the condition
of trade among our citizens, and wo com
mend to Cougreas and to tho State Legis
attires, m their respective jurisdictions,
such legislation as will prevent the execu
tion of all schemes to oppress the people by
undue charges on their supplies, or byun-.
just rates for the transpoitation of tli-iir
products to market. u approve the leg
islation by Congress to prevent alike un
just burdens and unfair discriminations be
tween the states.
Wc ivafl'irm the policy of appropriating
the publia lands of the United Status to bo
homestead for American citizens and set
tlers, not aliens, which tho It;publican
party established in lS6:, against the
jtctvitciit opposition of the Democrats in
Congress, and which has brought our groat
Western domain into such magnificent
development. The restoration of unearn
ed land grants to the public domain for
tho uso of aotual settlors, which waa beuun
under the auimmitratiou ol l reidcrt Ar
thur, should be continued. We deuy that
the democratic paity has ever restored one
acre to the people, but doclarc that by the
joint action of republicans and democrats,
about fifty miliums ol aorta of unearned
lauua iriginaiiy kuiihi ror 111c oonaiiuc
tiou of railioada hao been roatoied to the
them, to form for themselves a constitution
and State government, and be admitted
into the Union. Pending the prepara
tion for Statehood, all officers .hereof
should be selected from the bona fide
residents and citizens of 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 indoise the action
of tho Republican Senate in twice
passing bills lor 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 principle
of local self-government, and merits the
condemnation of all jusi men. 1 he
pending bills in the Senate for acts to
enable tho people of Washington, North
Dakota and Montana Territories to form
constitutions should be passed without
unnecessary delay. The republican party
pledges useii touo all in its power to fa
cilitate the admission of the territories of
New Mexico, Wyoming, Idaho and Ari
zona lo the enjoyment of ielf-goernment
as states, euch of them as ore now quali
fied, as soon as possible, and the others as
soon as they may become so.
iho political power of tho Mormon
church in the territories, as experienced in
the past, is a menace to free institutions
too dangerous to be long suffered. There
fore we pledge the republican party to ap
propriate legislation asserting the sover
eignty of the nation in all territories
where the same is questioned, and in
furtherance 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 cartv is in favi,r of the
use of both gold and silver as money, and
condemns the policy of tho democratic
administration in its efforts to demonetize
silver.
Wo demand the reduction of letter
postage to i cent por ounce.
In a republic like ours, where the
citizen is the sovereign and tho official the
servant, whero no power is exercised
except by the will of the people, it is
important that the sovereign the people
should possess intelligence. 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, sufficient to afford to even-
child growing up in the land the oppor
tunity of a good common school edu
cation. Wo earnestly recommend that prompt
action be taken by Congress in the en
actment of such legislation as will bet
secure the rehabilitation of our American
merchant marine, and wa protest against
the passago by Congress of a free ship
bill, as calculated to work injustice to
labor by lessening the wages of those
engaged in pieparing materials, as well
as those directly employed in our ship
yards. We demand appropriations for
the early .ebuilding nfouruav); for the
construction of coast fortifications and
modern ordnance, and other appioved
modern means of defense for the piotec
tion of our defenseless harbors and
cities; for tho payment of just pensions
to our soldiers; for necessary works of
National importance in the improvement
of harbors aud the channels of internal
coastwise, and foroign cominerco; for the
encouragement of tho shipping interests
of the Atlantic, Gulf and Pacific States, as
well as for the payment ol the maturing

nllirm this to be tar better for our country
than the democratic policy of loaning tho

ice. Having withdrawn fiom the Seuate
all ponding treaties effected by republican
administration for the removal of foieigu
burdens and restrictions upon our com
inerco nnd for its extension into better
markets, it has neither eflected nor pro
posed any others in their stead. Profess
ing adherence to tho Monroe doctrine, it
has seen with idle complacency the exten
sion of loreigu influence in Central
America, aud of foreign trade everywhere
among our neighbors. It has refused to
charter, sanation or encourage any Amer
ican organization for constructing the
Nicaragua canal, a work ol vital import
ance lo ihe maiutenauco of the Mouroo
doctrine, and of our national influence in
Central and South America, and neces

our Pacific territory, with South America
and with the islands and further coisls of
the Pacific Ocean.
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 leeisla
tion should be repealed, to the end that
the danger to free institutions which lurks
in the power of official 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 tho pledges made by a
loyal people, and be so enlarged and ex
tended as to provide against the possibility
that any man who honorably wore the
federal uniform 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 by
President Cleveland in his numerous
vetoes of measures for pension relief, and
the action of the democratic houso 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 of all parties, and especially
of all workingmen whose prosperity is
seriously threatened by the free trade
policy of the present administration.
Additional plank submitted by Mr.
Boutelle of Maine, and adopted by an
almost uuanimous vete: The first con
cern ot all good government is the virtue
and sobriety of the people and the puiity
of (ho home. The republican party
cordially sympathizes with all wiso and
well directed efforts for the promotion of
temperance and morality.
