This honor, as is well understood, was wholly unsought by rue. That it was tendered by the representa tives of the party, in a manner so flattering, will 6erve to lighten what ever labors I may be called upon to Trf-rfiirm. Although the variety of subjects covered in the very excellent and vigorous declaration of principles adopted by the late convention pro " hibits, upon an occasion calling for brevity of expression, that full elab oration of which they are suscepti ble, I avail myself of party usage to signiiy my approval of the various resolutions of the platform, and to discuss thera briefly. PROTECTION TO AMERICAS LABOR. The resolutions of the platform declaring for a levy of such duties s to atford security to our diversi fied industries, and protection to the rights and wages of the laborer, to the end that active and intelligent I labor, as well as capital, may have its just reward, and the laboring man his lull share in the National pros perity." meets mv hearty approval. If there be a Nation on the face of the earth which might, if it were a desirable thing, build a wall upon its very boundary line, deny com munion to all the" world, and pro ceed to live upon its own resources and productions, that Nation is the United States. There is hardly a le gitimate necessity of civilized com munities which cannot be produced from the extraordinary resources of tn rarrv it in our own bottoms Difficult as this work appears, and really is, it is susceptible of accom plishment by patient and intelligent labor, and to no hands can it be committed with as great assurance of success as to those of the Repub lican party. OUR MONETARY SYSTEM. The Republican party is the in- disnutable author ot a linanciai and monetary system which it is safe to say has never before been equaled by that of any other Na tion. Under the operation of our sys tem of finance the country was safe ly carried through an extended and expensive war, with a National cred it which has risen higher and high er with each succeeding year, until now the credit of the United States is surpassed by that of no other na tion, while its securities, at a con stantly inereasins premium, are ea gerly sought after by investors in all parts of the world. Uur system ot currency is mosi admirable in construction. W bile all the conveniencies of a bill circu lation attached to it, every dollar of paper represents a dollar of the world's money standards, and as long as the just and wist policy of the Republican party is continued, there can be no impairment of the National credit, lherefore, under present laws relating thereto, it will be impossible for any man to lose a penny in the bonds or bills of the United States or in the bills of the National Ranks. The advantage of having a bank ble. What we moBt need in this di rection is a firm and vigorous asser tion of every right and privilege belonging to our Govern ment or its citizens, as well as an equally firm assertion of the rights and privileges belonging to the Gen eral family of American Republics situated upon this continent, when opposed, if ever they should be, by the different systems of Government upon another continent. An appeal to the right by such a Government as ours could not be disregarded by any civilized nation In the treaty of Washington we led the world to the means of escape from the horrors of war, and it is to be hoped that the era when all inter- national dinerences snail pe aeciaeu by peaceful arbitration is not far oil. ... .l. i u:.u :u 1-. our several States and Territories, note in ine uauw.wu.iu u. u , with their manufactories, mines, 6?B he morning m it was the farms, timber lands and water ways. night before, should be appreciated This circumstance, taken in connec- bv J-lL tion with the fact that our form of The convertibili y of the curren goverument is entirely unique fy should be maintained intact, and among the nations of the world, the establishment of aa international makes it utterly absurd to institute standard among all commercial na- : ii. tions. hxinff the relative values of nomic systems and those of other governments, and especially to at tempt to borrow systems from them. We stand alor.e in our circumstan ces, our lorces, our possibilities, and our aspirations. In all successful government it is a prime requisite that capital and labor should be upon the best terms, and that both should enjoy the hichest attainable prosperity. If there be a disturbance of the just balance between them, one or the other suffers, and dissatisfaction fol lows, which is harmful to both. The lessons furnished by the com paratively short history of our Na tional life have been too much over looked by our people. The funda mental article in the old Democratic creed proclaimed almost absolute free trade, and this, teo, no more than a quarter of a century ago. The low condition of our National credit, the financial and business uncer tainties and general lack ol prosper ity under that system, can be re membered by every man now in middle life. Although in the great number of reforms instituted by the Republi can party sufficient credit has not been publicly awarded to that of tariff reform, its benefits have, nev ertheless, been felt throughout the land. The principle underlying this measure has been in process of grad ual development by the Republican party during the comparatively brief period of its power, and to-day a portion of its antiquated Demo cratic opponents make unwilling concession to the correctness of the doctrine of an equitably adjusted i protective tariff, by following 6lowly in its footstepe, though a very long way in the rear. The principle involved is one of no great obscurity, and can be read ily comprehended by any intelligent person reflecting upon it The polit ical and social systems of some of our trade-competing nations have created working classes miserable in the extreme. They receive the mer est stipend for their daily toil, and in the great expense of the necessities of life, are deprived of those com forts of clothing, housing, and health producing food with which whole some mental and social recreation can alone make.existence happy and desirable. Now, if the products of those countries are to be placed in our markets, alongside of American pro ducts, either the American capital ist must suffer in his legitimate prof fits or he must make the American laborer suffer in the attempt to com pete with the species of labor above referred to. In the case of a substan tial reduction of pay there can be no compensating advantages for the American laborer, because the arti cles of daily consumption which he uses with the exception yf articles not produced in the United States, and easy of being specially provided for, as coffee and tea are grown in our own country, and would not be affected in price by a lowering in duties. Therefore while he would re ceive less for his labor, his cost of living would not be decreased. Be ing practically placed upon the pay of the European laborer, our own would be deprived of facilities for educating and sustaining his family respectably ; he would be 6horn of the proper opportunities of self-improvement, and his value as a citi zen, charged with a portion of the obligations of government, would be lessened ; the moral tone of the la boring class would suffer, and in turn the interests of capital, and the well being of orderly citizens in gen eral, would be menaced, while one evil would react upon another until there would be a general disturbance on the wholecominunity. The true problem of a good and stable gov ernment is how to infuse prosperity among all classes of people the manufacturer, the farmer, the me chanic and the laborer alike. Such prosperity is a preventive of crime, a security of capital and the very best guarantee of general peace and happiness. The obvious policy of our govern ment is to protect both capital and labor by a proper imposition of du ties. This protection should extend to every article of American produc tion which goes to build up the gen eral prosperity of our people. The National Convention, in view of the special dangers menacing the wool interests of the United States, deem ed it wise to adopt a separate resolu tion on the subject of its proper pro tection. This industry is a very large and important one. The nec essary legislation to sustain this in dustry upon a prosperous basis should be extended. No one realizes more fully than myself the great delicacy and diffi culty of adjusting a tariff eo nicely and eouitablr as to protect every borne industry, sustain every class - or American labor, promote to the highest point our great agricultural interests, and at the same time to give to one and all the advantages . pertaining to foreign productions cold and silver coinage, would be a measure of peculiar advantage. INTER STATE, FOREIGN COMMERCE AND FOREIGN RELATIONS. The subjects embraced in the res olutions respectively looking to the promotion of our inter-State and .foreign commerce and to the matter of our foreign relations are fraught with the greatest importance to our people. In respect to inter-State com merce, there is much to be desired in the way of equitable rates and facilities of transportation, that com merce may flow frsely between the States themselves, diversity of in dustries and employments be pro moted in all sections of our country, and that the great granaries and manufacturing establishments of the interior may be enabled to send their products to the seaboard for shipment to foreign countries, re lieved of vexatious restrictions and discriminations in matters of which it wav emphatically be said, "time is money," and also of unjust charg- EyUAL RIGHTS OF CITIZENSHIP. The central idea of a Republican form of Government is the rule of the whole people as opposed to the other forms which rest upon a pnv ileged class. Our forefathers, in an attempt to erect a new government which might represent the advanced thought of the world at that period upon tne subiect of governmental reform, adopted the idea of the people s sov ereierntv. and thus laid the basis of our present Republic. While tech nically a government of the people, it was in strictness only a govern ment of a portion of the people, ex cluding from all participation a cer tain other portion, held in a condi tion of absolute, despotic, and hope less servitude, the parallel to which, fortunately, does not now exist in any modern christian nation. With the culmination, however, of another cycle of advanced thought, the American Republic suddenly as sumed the full character of a gov ernment of the whole people, and 4,000,000 human creatures emerged from the couditien of bondsmen to the full stati.s of freemen, theoretic ally invested with the same civil and political rights possessed by their former masters, lhe subse quent legislation which guaranteed by every legal title the citizenship and full equality before the law in all respects of this previously dis franchised people, amply covers the requirements and secures to them, so far as legislation can, the privil eges of American citizenship. But the disagreeable lact of the case is, that while, theoretically, wo are in the enjoyment of a government of the whole people, practically we are almost as far from it as we were in the ante-bellum days of the Repub lic. There are b it a few leading and indisputable facts which cover the whole statement of the case. In many of the Southern State the colored population is in large excess of the white. The colored people are Republicans, as are also a consider able portion of the white people. The remaining portion of the. latter are Democrats. In face of this in contestible truth these Slates invari ably return Democratic majorities. In other States of the South the col ored people, although not a majority, es upon articles (lestiiw.-d to meet I fora, a very considerable body ol the Close compeiiuon iroui uie prouucia of other parts of the world. As to our foreign commerce, the enormous growth of our industries, and our surprising production of ce reals and other necessities of life, population, and with the white Re publicans are numerically in excess of the Democrats, yet precisely the same political result obtains the Democratic party invariably carry ing the elections. It is not even imperatively require that immediate thought advisable to allow an occa and effective means be taken j sianai or unimportant election to be through peaceful, orderly, and con servative methods to open markets, which have been and are now mo nopolized largely by other nations. This more particularly relates to our sister republics of Spanish America, as alse to our friends the people of the Brazilian empire. The republics of Spanish America are allied to us bv the very closest and warmest feelings, based upon similarity of institutions and gov ernment, common aspirations and mutual hopes. The "Great Repub lic," as they proudly term the United States, is looked upon by their peo ple with affectionate admiration and ai the model for them to build upon, and we should cultivate between them and ourselves closer commer cial relations, which will bind all together by the ties of friendly inter course and mutual advantage. Fur ther than this, being small common wealths, in the military and naval sense of the European powers, they look to us as, at least, a moral de fender against a system of territorial and other encroachments which, ag gressive in the past, has not been abandoned at this day. Diplomacy and intrigue have done much more to wrest the commerce of Spanish America from the United States than has legitimate commercial com petition. Politically we should be bound to the Republics of our continent by the closest ties, and communication by ships and railroads should be en couraged to the fullest possible ex tent consistent with a wise and con servative public policy. Above all, we should be upon such terms ot friendship as to preclude the possi bility of national misunderstandings between ourselves and any ef the members of the American Republi can family. The best method to promote uninterrupted peace be tween one and all would lie ia the meeting of a general conference or congress, whertby an agreement to submit all international differences to the peaceful decision of friendly arbitration might be reached. An agreement of this kind would give to our 6ister republics confi dence in each other and in us, closer communication would at oace en sue, reciprocally advantageous com mercial treaties might be made, whereby much of the commerce which now flows across the Atlantic would seek its legitimate channels, and inure to the greatest prosperity of all the American commonwealths. The full advantage of a poiicv of this nature could not be stated in a brief discussion like the present FOREIGN POLITICAL RELATIONS. The United States has grown to be a Government representing more than 50.000.000 people, and in ev- carned oy the Kepubiicans as a "blind" or as a stroke of finesse. Careful and impartial investiga tion has shown these results to fol low the systematic exercise of phys ical intimidation and' violence, con joined with the most shameful de vices ever practiced in the name of free elections. So confirmed has this result become that we are brought face to face with the extra ordinary political fact that the Dem ocratic party ol the South relies al most entirely upon the methods stated for its success in National elections. This unlawful perversion of the popular franchise, which I desire to state dispassionately, and in a man ner comporting with the proper dig nity of the occasion, is one of deep gravity to the Ameiican people in a double sense. First It is in violation, open, di rect, and flagrant, of the primary principles upon which our Govern ment is supposed to rest, viz : that the control of the Government is participated in by all legally quali fied citizens, in accordance with the plan of popular government, that majorities must rule in the decisions of all questions. Second It is in violation of the rights and interests of the States wherein are particularly centered the great wealth and industries of the Nation, and which pay an over whelming portion of the National taxes. The immense aggregation of interests embraced within, and the enormously greater population of these other States of the Union, ae subjected every four years to the dangers of a wholly fraudulent show of numerical strength. Under this system minorities act ually attempt to direct the course of National affairs, and though up to this time success has not attended their efforts to elect a President, yet success has been so perilously im minent as to encourage a repetition of the effort at each quadrennial election, and to subject the interests of an overwhelming majority of our people, North and South, to "the haz ards of illegal subversion. The stereotyped argument in ref utation of these plain truths is, that if the Republican element was really in the majority they could not be deprived of their rights and privil eges by a minority ; but neither sta tistics of population, or the unavoid able logic of the situation, can be overridden or escaped. Thecolored people of the South have recently emerged from the bondage of their present political oppressors; they have had but few of the advantages of education which might enable them to compete with the whites. As I nave heretofore maintained. ery sense, excepting that of mere in order to achieve the ideal perfeo naval power, is one of the first ca tions of the world. As such, its cit izenship should be valuable, entit ling its possessor to protection in every quarter of the globe. I do not consider it necessary that our Gov ernment should construct enormous fleets of approved iron-clads and maintain a commensurate body of seamen in order to place ourselves on a war footing with the military and naval powers of Europe. Such a course would not be compatible with the peaceful pelicy of our coun try, though it seems absurd that we have not the effective means to re pel a wanton invasion of our coast and give protection to our coast towns and cities against any power. The great moral force of our coun try is bo universally recognized as to render an appeal to arms by us, either in protection of eur citizens abroad or in recognition of any just international right, quite imputa tion ol a popular government, it is absolutely necessary that the masses should be educated. This proposi tion applies itself with full force to the colored people of the South. They must have better educational advantages, and thus bo enabled to become the intellectual peers of their white brethren, as many of them undoubtedly already are. A liberal school system should be provided for the rising generation of the South, and the colored people be. made as capable of exercising the duties of electors as the white people. In the meantime it is the duty of the Na tional Government to go beyond res olutions and declarations on the subject, and to take such action as may lie in its power to secure the absolute freedom of National elec tions everywhere, to the end that our Congress may cease to contain mem bers representing fictitious majorities of their people, thus misdirecting the popular will concerning Nation al legislation, and especially to the end that in Presidential contests, the great business and other inter ests of the country may not be plac ed in fear and trembling, lest an un scrupulous minority should succeed in stifling the wishes of the majority. In accordance with the spirit of the last resolution of the Chicago platform, measures should be taken at once to remedy this great evil. FOREIGN IMMIGRATION. Under our liberal institutions the subjects and citizens of every nation have been welcomed to a home in our midst, and on a compliance with our laws to a co-operation in our Government While it is the policy of the Republican party to encour age the oppressed of other nations and offer them facilities for becom ing useful and intelligent citizens in the legal definition of the term, the party has never contemplated the admission of a class of servile people who are not only unable to compre hend our institutions, but indispos ed to become a part of our national family or to embrace any higher civilization than their own. To admit such immigrants would be only to threw a retarding element into the very path of our progress. Our legislation should be amply protective against this danger, and if not sufficiently so now should be made so to the full extent allowed by our treaties with friendly powers. THE CIVIL SERVICE. The subject of civil service ad ministration is a problem that has occupied the earnest thought of statesmen for a number of years past and the records will show that to ward its solution many results of a valuable and comprehensive char acter have been attained by the Re publican party since its accession to power. In the partisan warfare made upon the latter with the view of weakening it in Abe public con fidence a great deal has been alleged in connection with the abuse of the civil service, the party making the indiscriminate charges seeming to have entirely forgotten tiiat it was under the full sway of the Demo cratic organization that the motto, became a cardinial article in the Democratic creed. With the determination to elevate our governmental administration to a standard of justice, excellence and public morality, the Republican party has sedulously endeavored to lay the foundation of a system which shall reach the highest perfection under the plastic hand of time and accumulating experience. The prob lem is one of far greater intricacy than appears upon its superficial consideration, and embraces the sub questions of how to avoid the abus es possible to the lodgment of an immense number of appointments in the hands of the Executive ; of how to give encouragement to and provoke emulation in the various Government employes, in order that they may strive for proficiency and rest their hopes of advancement upon the attributes of official merit, good conduct and exemplary hoa esty : and how best to avoid the evils of creating a privileged class in the Government service, who, in imitation of European prototypes, may gradually lose all proficiency and value in the belief that they possess a life-calling, only to be taken away in case of seme flagrant abuse. The thinking, earnest men of the Republican party have made no mere wordy demonstration upon this subject ; but they have endeav ored to quietly perform that which their opponents are constantly prom ising without performing. Under Republican rule the result has been that, without engrafting any of the objectionable features of the Euro pean systems upon our own, there has been a steady and even rapid elevation of the civil service in all of its departments until it can now be stated, without fear of successful contradiction, that the service is more just more efficient and purer in all of its features, than ever before since the establishment of our Gov ernment ; and if defeets still exist in our system, the country can safe ly rely upon the Republican party as the most efficient instrument for their removal. I am ia favor of the highest stand ard of excellence in the administra tion of the civil service, and will lend my best efforts to the accom plishment of the greatest attainable perfection in this branch of our service. A Government tthcriO. Mr. Edward L. Green, Sheriff, Auckland, New Zealand, writes : " I received an injury to my shoulder in June, 1S32. and from that date until July, 1S&5. 1 could not use my arm.

THE REMAINING TWIN RELIC OF BAR BARISM. The Republican party came into existence in a crusade against the Democratic institutions of slavery and polygamy. The first of these has been buried beneath the embers of civil war. The party should con tinue its efforts until the remaining iniquity shall disappear from our civilization under the force of faith lully executed laws. There are other subjects of impor tance which I would gladlv touch upon did space permit. I limit myself to saying that while there should be the most rigid economy of governmental administration, there should be no self-defeating parsi mony either in our domestic or for eign service. Official dishonesty should be promptly and relentlessly punished. Our obligations to the defenders of our country should never be forgotten, and the liberal system of pensions provided by the Republican party should not be im periled by adverse legislation. The law establishing a Labor Bureau, through which the interest1? of labor can be placed in an organized con dition, 1 regard as a salutary meas ure. The eight-hour law should be enforced as rigidly as any other. We should increase our navy toa de gree enabling us to amply protect our coast lines, our commerce, and to give usfa force in foreign waters which shall be a respectable and proper representative of a coun try like our own. The public lands belong to the people, and should not be alienated from them, but reserv ed for free homes for all desiring to possess them ; and, finally, our pres ent Indian policy should be contin ued and improved upon as our ex perience in its administratin from time to time suggest I have the honor to subscribe my self, Sir, Your obedient servant, John A.
