Courier Democrat. (Langdon, N.D.) 1891-1920, 1892-10-20
Platform Adopted BY Democratic
County Convention.

The Democratic party Of Cavalier
county in convention assembled, re-af-
firms it's faith i'll and allegiance to the
great party of Jefferson and Jackson,
and endorses most heartily the Demo-
cratic platform of principles adopted
by the National Democratic party at
Chicago; and pledges it's united ener-
gies to the maintenance and support
of National Democracy, believing that
the interests of the masses will be best
subserved by the election Of Grover
Cleveland.
We maintain that the Democratic
party, from its inception, has advocated
popular suffrages and that it has al
| ways made the cause of the common
people its cause; We urge that the peo-
| pie never for Il moment lose sight of
those vital interests underlying our
free institutions, and we therefore de-
nounce the policy of the Republican
party which would commit this country
| to the federal control of elections, by
means Of the infamous Force Bill.
We as a fractional part of National
| Democracy insist that Cavalier county
and the State Of North Dakota in her
agricultural interests can never posi-
bly, hope to be benifitted one cent by
the present system of tariff taxation,
and on the contrary maintaining that
we sell our products at the world S
prices in a free trade market, and are
forced to buy our supplies at fictitious
prices in a protected market, created
in class interests. denounce the So
called Mckinley bill as derogatory to
agricultural interests everywhere in
America, and as not calculated to fur
ther the'jnterests of the common peo-
pie, who create products and buy the
supplies of life.
We denOunce the pretensiOhs of Re-
publican politicians in their claims
that protection aids labor, and point to
the deplorable condition of things at
Homestead and throughout Pennsyl-
vania and New York, where 100, 900
workingmen are in a state of riot, fight
ing against reductions in wages and
for the preservation of their unions, as
evidence that labor itself has no faith
in these pretensions.
Resolved: That we denounce the
Republican party of this state for the
manner in which they have lent them
selves on all occasions to further the
interests of Railroad and Elevator cor
porations:
Resolved: That we pledge our rep
resentatives to the legislature to secure
for farmers suitable and ample ship
ping facilities at all stations, and upon
all railroads. wherever practicable, and
aid in releasing us from the ban of
Republican corporation rule.

Before his election Mr.. johnson was
supposed to be the champion of the
cause of the people, yet it is u singular
comment on his position as such that

were his closest and almose only as
| sociates during a whole weeks stay.
The dear people who spent their sub
stance to elect him had been forgot
ten in a short space of few months.
1t is fact that not a single man OF any
prominence in this county - except
those who hope to ride into ofice on
Johnson's past prestige, have any use
for him. They picked him mp two
years ago because they needed him
for a purpose and that pursose at
| tanned he ceases to be anything more
to them than other man of like abll-
| ity and worth. 1t has boen stated
when Johnson has filled his numer-
Gus appointments around the state
the dissafection among the Scandi-
nayians would be at an end. In the
audience which listened to johnson
in this city some TIME since, there

VANS. or these one is q democrat.
two are republicans, but worked a.
gainst Johnson two years ago and
will probably do so again, and the
fourth, who is /, republican and work
ed for the congressman from NORTH
Dakota, stated after hearing the
speech, that the democrats could dc
better than to keep johnson Oh the
stump all fall if they had to pay his
evpences. lie also stated that he ha(
worked and voted for johnson once
but has been ashamed Of it eve
since.-Devils Lake Free Press.

Platform Adopted BY Demo-
cratic State Convention,

/. The representatives of the demo,>I
cratic party Of North Dakota in con-
vention assembled heartily endorse the
platform adopted by the democratic
national convention at Chicago.
2. BY common consent the tariff is
the supreme issue of the impending
campaign. The question to be settled
by the American people is whether Il
revenue tariff which was adopted as an
extreme war measure and with the
solemn pledge of it's authors that it
should be repealed as soon as that war
was over, and which has been increased
nearly one-fourth by the Mckinley
bill, shall be made perpetual for the
benefit Of favored class; whether that
system shall continue which after
| thirty years of trial, presents the spec
tacle of colossal fortunes on one side
and colossal Indebtedness on the
other, trusts and millionaires upon one
side and an aggregate farm mortgage
Indebtedness Of 50, 500, 100000 upon the
other; a system which has massed in
the hands of 25, 900 persons one-half Of
the entire wealth of the nation. in
other words, more than so per cent of
national wealth in the hands of less
than one-half of per cent of the en-
tire population. TO the repeal of such
measures we pledge the united support
of the democratic party Of North Da-
kota.
9. Upon this issue Of the tariff the
independent party and the democratic
party are one in interest, one in prin
ciple and should be enc in work.
4. The issue of THIS campaign comes
home with especial force to the people
of North Dakota. They bear all the
burdens Of the republican tariff and
share in none of it's profits. 1t is pow
erless to enhance the price of wheat
they have to sell and increases the
price Of all they have to buy. 1t sends
them to the free trade markets Of the
world with their grain, and at the same
time places in the hands of their COM
petitors in Asia, Australia and South
America, agricultural implements at
so per cent less than they are furnished
to them by the American manufacture
ers, whom it protects.
S. We rejoice that the democratic
party in this great campaign have for
their leader man who writes it's prin-
ciples in "the living characters and
ennobles them by heroic action''-
Grover Cleveland.
6. We believe that resubmission is
/ by far preferable to the present prohib.
itory law, as it is and has been ell.
