Wo have organized the government

pressed insurrection, established order
and given to life- and property a se
curity never known there before. We
have organized civil government, made
it effective and strong in administra
tion and have conferred upon the peo
ple of those islands the largest civil
liberty they have ever enjoyed.
By our possession of the Philippines
we were enabled to talco prompt and
effective action in the relief of the le
gations at Peking and a decisive part
in preventing the partition and in the
preserving of the integrity of China.
The possession of a route for an
isthmian canal, so long the dream of
American statesmanship, is now an
accomplished fact. The great work of
connecting the Pacific and Atlantic
oceans by a canal is at last begun, and
it is due to the republican party.
We have passed laws which will
bring the arid lands of the United
States within the area of cultivation.
We have organized the army and

partments of tho government has been
honest and efficient and wherever
wrongdoing has been discovered the
republican administration has not
hesitated to probe tho evil and bring
offenders to justice without regard to
party or political ties.
Laws enacted by the republican par
ty which tho democratic party failed
to enforce and which wore intended
for the protection of the public against
unfair discrimination or the "illegal en
croachment of vast aggregation of cap
ital havo been fearlessly enforced by
a republican president, and new laws,
insuring publicity as regard tho great
corporations and providing additional
remedies for the prevention of dis
crimination in freight rates, have been
passed by a republican congress.
In this record of achievement during
the last eight years may bo read the
pledges which tho republican party
has fulfilled. We propose to continue
these policies and we declare our con
stant adherence to tho following prin
ciples: Protection which guards and devel
ops our industries is a cardinal prin
ciple of tho republican party. The
measure of protection should always
at least equal the difference in the cost
of production at home and abroad.
We insist upon the maintenance of the
principles of protection, and therefore
rates of duty should bo readjusted only
when conditions have so changed that
tho public interest demands their al
teration, but the work cannot be safe
ly committed to any other hands than
those of the republican party.
To entrust it to the democratic par
ty is to invite disaster. Whether, as
in 1892, the democratic party decides
the protective tariff unconstitutional,
or whether i demands tariff reform
or tariff revision, its principal object
is always the destruction of the pro
tective system. However specious the
name, tho purpose is ever the same. A
democratic tariff has always been fol
lowed by business reverses, a repub
lican tariff by business prosperity. To
a republican congress and a republi
can president this great question can
be safely entrusted.
When the only free trade country
among the great nations agitates a re
turn to protection the chief protec
tive country should not falter in main
taining it.
We have extended widely our for
eign markets and we believe in the
adoption of all practicable methods for
their future extension, including com
mercial reciprocity wherever recipro
cal arrangements can be effected con
sistent with the principles of protec
tion and without injury to American
agriculture, American labor or any
American industry.
Wo believe it to be the duty of the
republican party to uphold the gold
standard and the integrity and value
of our national currency. The main
tenance of the gold standard, estab
lished by the republican party, can
not safely be committed to the demo
cratic party, which resisted its adop
tion and has never given any proof
since that time of belief in it or fidel
ity to. it.
While every other Industry has
prospered under the fostering aid of
the republican party, American ship
ping engaged in foreign trade in com
petition "with the low cost of construc
tion, low wages and heavy subsidies
of foreign governments has not for
many years received from the gov
ernment of the United States adequate
encouragement of any kind. We there
fore fayor legislation which will en
courage and build up the American
merchant marine .and we cordially ap
prove the legislation of tho last con
gress which created the merchant ma
rine commission to investigate and re
port upon this subject.
A navy powerful enough to defend
tho United States against any attack,
to uphold the Monroe doctrine and
watch over our commerco is essential
to tho safety and tho welfare of tho
American people. To maintain such a
navy is tho fixed policy of tho republi
can party.
Wo cordially approve tho attitude of
President Roosovclt and congress in
regard to the exclusion of Chinese la
bor and promiso a continuance of tho
republican policy in that direction.
Tho civil service law was placed on
tho statute books by tho republican
party, which has always sustained it,
and wo renew our former declaration
that it shall be thoroughly and hon
estly enforced.
Wo dre always mindful of tho coun
try's debt to tho soldiers and sailors
of tho United States and wo bolievo
in making amplo provision for them
and In tho liberal administration of
the pension laws.
Wo favor the peaceful settlement of
International differences by arbitra
tion. Wo commend tho vigorous offorts
made by tho administration to protect
American citizens In foreign landtf
and pledge ourselves to insist upon tho
just and equal protection of all our
citizens abroad. It Is tho unquestioned
duty of the government to procure
for all our citizens, without distinc
tion, tho rights of travel and sojourn
in friendly countries and wo declare
ourselves in favor of all proper efforts
tending to that end.
Our great interests and our growing
commerce in the Orient render tho
condition of China of high importance
to the United States. Wo cordially
commend tho policy pursued in that
direction by the administration of
President McKinlcy and President
Roosevelt.
Wo favor such congressional action
as shall determine whether by special
discriminations the elective franchise
in any state has been unconstitution
ally limited and, if such is the case,
we demand that representation in con
gress and in tho electoral colleges
shall bo proportionately reduced as di
rected by the constitution of tho
United States.
Combinations of capital and labor
are the results of the economic move
ment of the age, but neither must bo
permitted to infringe upon tho rights
and interests of the people. Such com
binations, when lawfully formed for
lawful purposes, are alike entitled to
the protection of tho laws, but both
are subject to the laws and neither can
bo permitted to break them.
Tho great' statesman and patriotic
Amerlqan, William McKinloy, who was
re-elected by the republican party to
the presidency four years ago, was as
sassinated just at the threshold of his
second term. The entire nation
mourned his untimely death, and did
that justice to his great qualities of
mind and character which history will
confirm and repeat.
The American people were fortunate
in hjs successor, to whom they turned
with a trust and confidence which
have been fully justified. President
Roosevelt brought to the great respon
sibilities forced upon him a clear head,
a brave heart, an earnest patriotism
and high ideals of public duty and
public service. True to' tho principles
of tho republican party and to the
policies which that party had declared,
ho has also shown himself ready for
every emergency and has met new
and vital questions with ability and
with success.
The people have confidence in his
justice and in his public career, which
enabled him to render personally an
inestimable service to tho country by
bringing about a settlement of the coal
strike, which threatened disastrous
results at tho opening of the winter
of 1902. Our foreign policy under his
administration has not only been vig
orous, but in the highest degree suc
cessful. The complicated questions
which arose in Venezuela were settled
