Stand by Your Platform.

Baltimore sun OF yesterday week.
Democratic members of the House
have had their duty toward the Senate
Free Coinage bill defined authortatively
by the silver plank of the Chicago con-
vention's platform. That plank laid
down the principles to which silver
legislation, supported by Democrats,
must conform, and the Senate bill is not
constructed upon those principles. The
doctrine embodied in the Senate bill was
urged at Chicago in the committee on
resolutions and in open convention, and
was explicitly and deliberately rejected
by large majorities in both.
The committee on resolutions of the
national Democratic convention CON
sisted Of one member from each state
tii and one from each territory (4)-4S
in all. The silver plank was the gauge
of battle and the subcommittee of ii
members struggled over it all night. The
silver interest was represented by Mr.
Patterson of Colorado. The free coinage
plank proposed by the Colorado mem
Der was beaten in the subcommittee
The contest was renewed in the whole
committee and there, after a long debate.
it was decided by the vote of 20 states
against IA states and the territories in
favor of the intrinsic and eXchangab!e
value of every dollar and unit of value. {"
The states-and the states alone have
electoral votes-thus, by vote of more
than TO /, voted down the Colorado
plank, In the open convention this was
repeated with emphasis.
Yet the Colorado amendment was
only to insert the word free" before
coinage. Its insertion would not have,
perhaps, sensIbly affected the text, but
as it tended to obscure an honest and
clear statement it was rejected The
declaration was made perfectly plain
and every loyal Democrat has an
authoritative statement of what he is to
vote and fight for.
Every rule of party discipline and of
party faith calls upon the party man in
Congress to sustain the fairly obtained
expression of party faith and intention.
Upon that class of strict party men who
are ever declaring 81 am a Democrat"
the silver plank of the Chicago conyen-
ton makes II special claim No occasion
has ever arisen in our political history
where adhesion TO party declaration
81 policy was more Just and necessary.
The monstrons bill just passed by the
Senate runs directly counter to the
language of the Chicago platform. 1t
includes words and policies which the
national Democracy, in convention as
sembled, deliberately rejected. Is the
conventions action TO be set asideY Is
its silver plank to be forgotten by loyal
Democrats in the House before the ink
with which it was written is wholly
dry? 1t is incredible. Any coinage
bill to obtain the support of loyal
Democrats in the House must, in the
language of the Democratic platform,
provide that "the dollar unit OF coinage
OF both metals must be Of equal in
trinsic and exchangeable value.'' This
the Senate free coinage bill does not do.

This was too much for the girl and,
with an appealing glance and frantic

thrown to the other end of the car,
where, much to the surprise of the
