The Tribune's Platform.
THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE's position ON the leading
measures now before the country may be condensed
into the following enunciatiOns:
policy benefits that great interest promotes the
prosperity ut the whole country. The cost of trans
kcts consumes half tie selling value and the high du
ties levied TO subsidzc special interests doubles the
CrOps-thus bleeding and burdening the farmer until
he staggcrs from weakness under the weight Of the
farmers.
Tariff and Tra importation Charges.
THE TRIBUNE will advocate the adoption OF such
measures will cheaper transportation and reduce
the taxes goods The lightcst tariff which will pro-
il on and maintain it's credit should only be imposed
on imports, and the national highways SHOULD be i'm
proved to create stronger competition wh the rail-.
road monopolics, which VIII compel them to lower
their tarlfl Of charges.
Reduction of State and Local Taxes.
The utmost reduction Of all direct taxes must be in.

trench these expenditures al well as those of the Ma.
tional Government, and choke down the Unsuitable
greed of the local taxcaters before all the surplus
earnings of the industrious classes conscated by
those ta1-devourers.
The Currency.
Plenty of currency for all the legitimate wants of
the country with Elasticity as TO quantity aud sta.
bility as to value by conyertbty into coin. An end
should be put TO the continual fluctuations in the yaue
