The Nevada Democrats Know Only a

WINNEMUccA, New. May 26. The
Democratic state convention met here
today. The platform which was adopted
declares, in part: I'VE denoupce the
demonetization act of 1873, and arraign
it's authors and maintainers, their aid
ers and abettors in Europe and Amer
lea, as enemies of the public veal, and
co-woYkers in the crime of legislation
for the favored classes, to the
detriment of the toiling masses,
We denounce the demonetization
Of silver as having no parallel in the
wickedness of its conception, or in the
atrocity of it's contamination. except in
the method used by the class of big and
little politicians, the puppets of the gold
bug oligarchy, to defeat the restoration
of Its use as money. In this great con-
test we hold all free coinage men and
parties as friends, all others as enemies. y
The platform instructs the delegates
to the national convention to use all
honorable means to secure the adoption
of a plank in the national platform.
declaring explicitly in favor of free coin
age of silver, and under no circum-
stances to vote for any man for nomina-
ton for the presidency, unless he shall
be unqualifedly in favor of free coinage.
It also declares that in the event of the
Chicago convention failing to nominate
candidates who are unequivocally in
favor of free coinage, the nominees of
this convention are absolved from all
obligations to support the national
ticket.

ner, chairman of the national commit
tee. General Warner stated the objects
sought to be obtained by the calling to-
gether of the silver men of the country.
M. M. Parker, president of the Wash
ington board of trade, delivered an ad-
dress of welcome.
On motion of B. Clark Wheeler of Col
orado, Judge Isaac P. Morris of Indiana
was elected temporary chairman. He
spoke at some length. The only proper
question for the United States to agree
to consider in the international none
tary conference, the speaker thought.
was the worlds legal ratio.
Gen. A. J. Warner of Ohio was elected
chairman.
Addresses were made by Messrs. Nc
Ginnis Of Montana, Bryan of Nebraska,
Bartine of Nevada, and Senator Sewart.
The later made known the fact that the
senate had just agreed to take up and
discuss plain free silver bill, and, said
ne, I'VE will press it to a vote. We will
see who are our friends and who are
our enemies, and if we can, will send it
to the president and compel him to sig
nifty to the people OF, the country

Senator Colquitt was in hearty accord
with every effort for the reconciliation
Of silver. He thought there was ray
of hope across the dark and portentous
horizon in the action of the senate to-
day.
Pierce thought the free coinage bill
would pass the senate. # it came to
the house from the senate, and the for
