The Republican Platform.

Nashville Herald
The Republican platform is built
after the usual style, except that
the administration of President
Harrison is damned with faint
praise. The passage of the poll
tax and election laws in this State
is condemned, and the platform
seeks to array the rich against the
poor by a false and specious appeal
to the "poor man." based upon the
proposition that he is thus deprived
of voice i'll the selection of men
who make the laws under which
he lives. In fact this platform is
built upon an appeal to passions
and tends to produce strife and
discomfort. There is no statesman
ship evinced in its construction, Oh
in the doctrines Endorsed and pre-
scented to the people of this State
for ratification. In fact the adop-
ton of the platform with the force
bill rider is not "good politics,

ton overlooked their hand and

IHE st. Louis Republic calls the

favor the sub-treasury scheme for
raising money on their crops, to the
fact that they overlook the fatal
obstacle in the way Of its success.
After their grain is harvested in
the sub-treasury warehouses, there
would be no money in the treasury
for the Government to advance
upon it. The Republicans in Con-
