Tho Tribunc'H Platform.
THE CHICAGO TnmuNE's position On tho leading
measures now before tho country mny 10 condensed
into the following cn,inciationa:
As Agriculture Ia tho hasia of National wealth. what
ever policy benefits that great interest promotes tho
prosperity OF tue whole country. The coat OF trana-
portat1on OF Western farm products to foreign mnr-
kots consumes half tho selling value, md the high -
uea eVisa to sbaidizo special intesoss doubles tho
rea pface Of ne goods received IN exchango tor tho
cropa-thus bleeding and burdening tho farmer until
he ataggers from weakness under the weight OF tho oa
deuce sAe cute1 CAUSE ot lara tlea among 1afmess.
Tariff and TRANSPORTATION Charges.
The TRIBUNE will advocate tho adoption Of such
measures Will chcapon transportation and reduce
tho taxes goods. The ughtcat tariff which will
provide the Government With necessary funds to
carry It on and maintain is credit should only be I'M
posed on Imports and the national Highways should
bo Improved to create stronger competition with tho
railroad monopolies which will comrel them to lower
their tariff Of charges.
