Republican Platform at St Louis Endorses Gold Standard
The Republican platform denounces Democratic rule, renews allegiance to protection, and endorses the gold standard. It condemns free coinage, urges tariff and reciprocity, pledges protection for American labor, and supports naval expansion, immigration controls, civil service, and free ballot rights. It also calls for arbi tration, homestead policy, and territorial admission with a nationwide push toward party victory.
