fundamental principle of the Gamoeratic par-
ty that tho Jf' dcrai Government has no con-
stitutional poW to impo-o and c >h;Ct larill

only and we doo.and that te-i collection of
such taxes shall ba limited to th ' ;iec. s-dt'.ce
of the Goyurn n uit w ei bo i.'Stly and eciin-

Wo denounce the McKinley t.iritl law in-
acted by tin Fitty-lbst Ootigre.ss ns th cal

dorse the efforts made b;. Ilia Uonim ratsol

that enter into gonei il com un pti n mid we
promise its repeal as one of the barn ficent
results that will follow tbu notion of tho
people in intrust'ng power to f hoDomocrat-

We call the attention ol thoughtful Ani i -

AI.LEUKD lIKCII’BOCITY.
Soo. 4. Trade exchange on tho basis of
reciprocal advantages to tho countries par-
ticipating is a time-honored doctrine of tho
Democratic faith but wo denounce the sham
reciprocity which juggles with the people’s
desire for enlarged foreign markets and
freer exchange by pretonding to establish
closer trade relation* with a country whose
articles of export pro almost exclusively ag-
ricultural products v. ith oth 'r countries th'it
are also agricultural while oit'cling n cus-
tom-house barrier of prohibitive urifl taxes

OOuiblnations whicli uro designed to enable
capital to secure mo o limn iti jurt 'dm'O of
tho joint product of c ipit'll nnd 1 .bor and
natural consequence of tho prohibitive taxes
which prevent the Iron competition which
is tho lite of honest tradh but we believo
their worst evils can bn abated by mw rod
we demand tho rigid onfoi'roinont of the laws
made to control and prevent Ihnin logctiior
with such further legi-dati m In 0.-tralnt of

KKI'UuLIOAN LAND STEAM.
800. 0. Tho Bopubllo'in |>nrly while pro-
fin ing policy of reserving llm public land
lor email holdings by actual settlers lias
given away tho people's heritage till now a
few railroads and non-resident aliens indi-
vidual and corporal'' possess a larger' nrea
than that of all our larms betwem tho two
seas. Tho l ist Democratic administration
reversed tho improvident and unwise policy
of tho Itimubhc in party touching the do-
main and roclalinod from o irporallons and
syndicates alien and domestic and restored
to the people nearly 100000000 acres of
valuable lands to be sac edly held as homo-
•loads lor cur citizens and vie pledge our-
selves to continue this policy until every
scroof land so unlawfully bold shall bo re-
claimed and rest -red to the poop'o.
BILVItH COINAGE.
.;ec. 7. Wo denounce th" Republican
l iigisliition known ns tho idhern i a el of I -Ou
•• a cowardly multcshift f- uvht with pos-
sibilities ol damrur in 11... future which
should make all of Its supporters ns woT n <
it* •'[•thor anxious for its apeady repeal.
Wo bold to Hie use of both gold nnd sllvo'
I as the stan ard money of the country as to
I the coinage of both gold and silver without
discr minat ng against either metal or charge
i for mintage but the dollar unit of coinage
of botn metals must be of equal intrinsic and
exchangeable value or be ad justed through
international agreement or bv such s*fe-
j guards o! legislation as shall insure the
i mn'nt nance of the parity of the two metals
I and the equal power of every dollar at ail
■ tm cs in the markets and in the payment of
debt s end we demand that ill paper eurron-
I cy shall be kept at par with and redecmab’e
ji . such coin. We msul upon this policy as
i e.-pfcidly necessary: or the protection of the
: fanueis and laboring classes the fi st and

tory 10 per rent lax on Stalo bank issues be

FOREIGN AFFAIRS.
Sec. 10. The Democratic party is the only
party ti at bus ever given the country a for-
eign policy consistant and vigorous com-
peting re.-pec. abroad and inspiring confi-
dence at home. While avoiding entangling
alliances it has aimed to cultivate friendly
relations with other nations and especially
with cur neighbors on the American Conti-
nent whose destmy is closely linked with
our own and we view with alaim the ton-
Ceney to a policy of irritation and bluster
whicli is lia jlo to confront us with the alter-
native ol humiliation or war at any time.
We lav or tho maintenance of a navy
itrong enough to: all purposes of national
defense nd to properly maintain the honor
and di .inly ot the country rbroad.
REMONSTRANCE WITH RUSSIA.
Sec. 11. This country has always been
the refuge of the oppressed from every land
—exiles tor conscience sake—and the spirit
<4 the founders of our Government wo con-
demn the oppression practiced by tho Rus-
sian Government upon its Lutheran and
Jewish .-übjocts and we c li upon our Na
tional G Vermont in the interest of justice
and hum mity. by all just and proper means
to us: i.s prompt and best efforts to bring
about a cessation of these cruel persecutions
in tho dominion of the Czar and to secure to
the oppressed equal ngnts.
Wo tender our profound and earnest sym-
pa hy to those lovers of fre dom who arc
strugglm.; for home rule and tho great cause
of .-o f government in Ireland.
IMMIGRATION.

mate i Hurts to prevent the United titati-s
from being used ns the dumping ground for
the known criminals and paupers of Europe;

WATERWAY IMPROVEMENTS.

cv.'e so • and improve the .'(lls.-issippi Kivcr
nd oth r great waterways of the Kepubll •
so ns to sec tie ter the interior .State easy
ami cho p transportation to tdewaer.
A'hen any w derway of the itepu lie i< of
suffioi nt importance to demand aid of the
Government such aid should i.e extended
upon a definite plan of continuous work un-
til permanent improvement is secured.
NICARAGUA CANAL.
Sec. 15. For purposes of national de-
fense and the promotion of commerce be-
tween the S a’es wo recognize the early
cons r cl on of the Nicaragua Lanai and its
protect on against foregn control as of
great importance to the United States.
TIIK WORLD’S FAIR.
Sec. 16. Becognizing the World’s Col-
umbian Exposition a* a national undertak-
in'’ of vast importance in which tho general
government has invited tho co-operation of
all th . powers of the world and appreciat-
ing tlio a ccptance by many ot such powers
of the iiivita ion sc extended nnd the croud
and liberal efforts being made by them to
contribute to tho gr ndeur of the undertak-
ing wo are of ti.o opinion that Congress
should make such necessary financial pro
vi.ii n as i hall be requisite t.o tho mainten-
ance of :1m national honor and public faith.
TUB SCHOOL QUESTION.
Sec. 17. Popular education being tho on-
ly safe basis ot popular suffrage wo recom-
mend to tho several States most liberal ap-
propriation ; for tho public schools. Free
common schools are tho nursery of good
government and they have always received
the fostering c iro of the Democratic party
which favors every moans ot increasing in-
telligence. Freedom of education being an
essential of civil and religious liberty as well
a a necessity for tho development of intel-
ligence must not be iutorlerod with under
any pretext whatever. Vtoaro opposed to
State interference with parental rights or
rights of conscience in the education of
children as an infringement of tho funda-
mental Democratic doctrine that tho largest
individual liberty consistent with the rights
of others insures the highest type of Ameri-
can citizenship and the best government.
ADMISSION OF TUB TERRITORIES.
Sec. 18. Wo approve the action of the
present House of Kopresontatives in passing
bills admitting into tho Union as States tho
Territories of New Mexico and Arizona and
wo favor the early admission of all tho Ter-
ritories having tho necessary population and
resources to cmilln them to Statehood and
while they remain Territories wo hold that
tlie officials appointed to administer tho gov.
oi'iimiint of any Territory together with the
District of Columbia and Alaska should bo
boiia fide residents of tho Territory or dis-
trict in whicli heir duties are to bo per-
formed. The Democratic party believes in
home rule a d the control of their own af-
fairs by the people of mo vioinago.
rtIOTKCTION OF RAILWAY EMI’LOYEH.
See. 19. Wo favor legislation by Con-
gress and a tale legislatures to protect the
lives and limbs of railway employes nnd
those of other hazardous transportation
companies and denounce the inactivity of
tho Republican p rty and particularly tho
Republican Senate for enueing tho defeat
of inoasurcs beneficial nnd protectivo to
this ela's of wago-goors.

DEMOCRATIC b'l ATE PLATbORM
Adopted by Hie Dt inucratio m Ge Con-
vention at t ittle Rock
June 14th 1892.
THE PLATFORM.
We the delegates ot the Dnnoerit’c party
ot tho Slate ot Arkansas assemoled in eon
r ention nt Lt'lle Kock d elare that the su-
premo issue ol tlie day is the re orm ot the j
administra.ioii ot the Government; and that 1
tlie people can safely trust the party founced j
by Jeffvrso.. and whose principles were em-
phasized in tho spit ndid patriotic and non-
sectional administration of Grover C eve-
hnd.
We denounce the Republican pa ty for
its flagrant abus • and prostitution of power
during the last four years. Coming into lull
control of all branches of the Government
in 1888 by the u-e ot unprecedent'd corrup-
tion fund; largely 1 vied upon Government
favorites by those before and -ince close
personally and officially to tho chief bene-
ficiary that party immediately enter d upo
a crusade ot tyranv IrnuS and profligate
extravagance nev. r bein'e ventured upon by
anv party in times ot peace.
it found the treasury w ith a large and
daily increasing surplus and in times ot
great depression accompanied by the uni-
versal demand tor relief from the burdens
of taxation it dissipated the surplus by
making annual appropiations ■ f $500000-
000. largely for unneccessary and utterly in-
d. fet.sible purposes and thereby failed to
meet and discharge the maturing bonded in- !
dehted oss of the Government and now finds I
itself confronted with an imminent ueficisti-
cy. Morever it made many of its appro-
priations permanent for no other purpose |
than to prevent the people from correcting 1
tke evils done so long as the Republican |
party retained control of either the Senate :
or Chief Magistracy of the nation.
It transcended all precedents in vicious
class legislation in the enactment of tho Mc-
Kinley bill and finally frightened by the '
extremities to which it had gone sought to
appease tho public discontent by reciprocity
I raud the adoption of which was a confes-
sion of the iniquity it had perpetrated.
It deprived States of their just representa-
tion by a fa'se census.
It deprived in the most insolent mid ar-
bitrary manner and practically without an I
opportunity to be heard representatives of .
the people of their seats in the lower House |
of Congress.
And finally drunk with its own excesses
it sought to perpetuate th" wrongs it had
done by depriving the people of the right to
hold their own elections and choose their
own servants by tho enactment of the in-!
famons andexeerabln lorce bill.
It treated with utter contempt all ideas of
sconomy and honesty both in its pension .
legislation and in its administration of that
bureau.
It rejected Democratic territories and ad-
mitted Republican territories in order to re-
tain party supremacy.
This regime of tyranny extravagance and I
wrong-doing contrasted with the clean
honest prudent nnd wise administration of
Grovi-i Cleveland brought upon the Re; üb-
lican party the most stupendous defeat that.
ever befell any party in this country and!
inspired anew with confidence and hope all
the people in the possibility of preserving
tree gov< rnment for mankind.
We declare our abiding fidelity to the I
Constitution oftho United States in its let- j
ter and spi it.
We declare our faith in tho capacity ol i
tho people for sell-government and in their }
inherent right to enjoy it free from all Fed-
eri'l interference
We denounce tne Republican party bo-
cause it turned its back upon the interests i
of the great mas-es of society and sound
stable government for all and allied its for- [
tunes with corporate ve Ith squander ng |
millions of the public domain upon rai roads
fostering legislation the legitimate offspring
o. which has been combinations ana trusts
oppressing the labor it professed to protect
and fastening ever increasing burdens on
agriculture until the homes of the people in
great sections of the country are coveied
with mortgages and the markets of the
world closed to the fruits of honest toil.
We denounce the McKinley tariff as a
crime against honest government and a fice
people not only because it levies an unnec-
essary tax and thereby imposes wanton and
cruel burdens on the people but because it
destroys the markets tor their surplus pro-
ducts.
We denounce it because it is c’nss legisla-
tion enacted in the interest of the favored
few who are wealthy and at the expense
and for the oppression of the great muss ot
the people.
Wo denounce it because it doos not in-
crease wages but surrenders the taxing pow-
er of the Government to the munufacturi rs
and loaves it to the employers to determine
whether they will divide tlie immense boun-
ty it yields with those they employ.
We denounce it because it is an abuse
and perversion of the taxing power of the
L’onstitution which was intended to be
used to raise necessary revenue for the sup-
port ot th ‘ Government into the means of
plundei lag all for the benefit of a class.
Wo denounce it because it inaugurated
for the Hist time in a free Government tho
practice of taking from tho public treasury
the i> oney collected for public purposes
Irom all the people and with it pay boun-
ties to select industries.
Wo denounce it because it destroys the in-
dependence and self-reliance of the people
which is a National characteristic nnd
and teaches themtoioly upon governmen-
tal favoritsm.
Wo denounce it because tho inevitalyjp
tendency ot this system is the destruction of
popular government in the debauehmont of I
the ballot by tribute extorted from favored I
classes whoso enormous bounties depend
upon the continuance of tho system itself.
We declu' o that the mission of tho Demo-
cratic party is to so reform the tariff by a
reduction of taxation as to limit the revenues
of the Government to its absolute noccssi
lies when economically administered and to
so frame its tarill schedules as to place the
burdens of government upon tho luxuries
and not npon tho necossrries of lite.
W o favor n sate mid sufficient currency
composed ot gold and silver and legal tender
paper convertable into coin on dem md and
maintained nt par with each other.
\\ o declare it to be the duty of tho Demo-
cratic party to preserve tho parity ir. value
ot gold and silver and to provide tho means
by tho equal mid fair treatment of both met-
als.
Wo denounce tho Sherman Silver bill ns
an obstruction to the fair treatment of silver
and as a sliam and n pretense intended to
postpone honest honest legislation and to
appease tho silver producers while giving no
relict to tho people.
Wo declare our purpose to continue to
maintain support mid develop our public
schools in tho interest of general Intelligence
and sound and stable government.
Wo declare it to bo tne sense ot tins ccn-
voi.tion that tho Punolonliiiry lease system
should bo abolished mid a system adopted
for tho treatment of convicts more consistent
with the bettor instincts mid more improved
methods of tho ago and tlint the next Gon.
oral Assembly should not adjourn without
appropriate legislation on this important
subject.
Wo declare for free and lair elections re-
moved from intimidation and corruption of |
nil kinds and to that end wo will give tho
modified Australian ballot law enacted by
tho Inst Democratic Legislature a lair and
lull Irbil in tho interest of good government I
Wu indignantly hurl back upon the Ro-1
publican party tho oft repented false accusa-'
ticn that elections in Arkansas are con-
trolled by Intimidation and fraud; and w«
denounce it as the old cry ot “Stop Tliiofl”
by which tho ambitious demagogues repu-
diated bes-es nnd favored claeses ot that
party seek to divert attention from their
own misdeeds and to continue with impuni-
ty both to intimidate their own employes I
and to debauch the ballot by the corrupt'
use of money.
Wo believe that tho power and oificlal I
patronage conferred by the people on tho
National Administrationshould be used iu •
the interest of tho whole people and no
pro.tituted to partisan purposes; or to
sub ervo the ambition of individual officials
high or low And we condemn in unmeas-
ured terms the abuse and postltution of of-
ficial patronage so flagrantly and disgusting-
ly exhibited at the recc t Itepublican Na-
tional Com entmn a-inimical to the spirit
and dangerous t > the perpetuity ot our in-
stitutions.
