work from now until the election. He hoped
the Democracy of New Jersey would take no
backward step in its platform today in It's

ton, and that Republican success was won

trusts, and calling for more equal taxation
'srhe reform in taxation says the plat
form, "should follow the lines laid down IN
Governor Green's inaugural address of six
years ago. The attempt Of the Republican

educational and agricultural advancement
Common carriers should not be allowed, In
fixing rates for transportation through the
state, TO discriminate against the citizens Of

ests OF labor is pledged. Municipal expendi-
ture SHOULD be more carefully limited. Sc
