PARTY PLATFORMS.

The policy of party followed for
many years is of greater significance
than any national platform that may
be adopted, and this is especially true
when political organization has had
control of the administration of affairs
continuously for more than a quarter
of a century. Platforms are frequently
adopted to satisfy the trend of public
opinion, and this is as uncertain as the
wind. Considered In this light they
may not be indicative of the doctrines
of any party, and should be taken as
a means used of gaining favor with the
masses, In this connection, the AL
bany Democrat may be correct when
it asserts that the declarations of prin-
ciples of the two great political organ
izations in 1892 on the money ques-
tion were somewhst similar, and both
were in favor of bimetallism. But it
would be unfair not to discriminate
between them, and form conclusion
from the past history of each. The
money question has never been dis
tinctive issue in any presidential cleo
tion; but the position of parties may
be determined by the traditions of each
in the past When the nation emerged
ont of the late civil war, crippled in
finances, Republicans took a bold
stand in favor of meeting the ebliga-
tions incurred in the standard money
of the world, while Democracy, from
every platform in the country, her
aided forth the theory that If 'green-
backs were good enough for American
citizens they should be considered of
equal value to foreign bondholders."
On the doctrine of equitable adjust
ment" that party went before the
country in 1868. In 1872, the same
organization was in favor of further
issue of greenbacks or an initiation of
the currency. And, during different
epochs since, the Democratic party has
been vacillating on this subject, till In
1890 it went wild on the question of
free silver, and the Sherman act in
that year was simply barrier inter-
posed to save the country from Demo
cratic free coinage. The history of
the Republican party has been very
consistent on this subject, and from
1868 until 1892 its course has always
been in favor of honest money. If
the Democrat will admit that the plat
forms of every organization can only |
be judged correctly by its past record,
it must admit that the bImetallism |
thrown into the instrument adopted |
1t Minneapolis did not mean the same
Is that injected into the one adopted
~ the Democracy at Chicago. 4
careful examination of both parties, in
his light, will lead nearly every one
o the conclusion that Democrats were
n favor of free coinage, as the Tele-
ram and other leading Democratic
,apers claim, and Republicans were
he same as they always had been,
trong advocates of the single stand
rd. We cannot consider this conclu-
Ion unwarranted by the historical
acts clustering around the organiza-
ions, and it would be very narrow
nd contracted view to form an opin-
On from naked Interpretation of the
vords used.

Rejoicing at vancouver.

VANCOUVER, Wash, Sept. 6-The
Vancouver hose team returned from the
tournament at The Dalles this evening
covered with honors and brooms. The
team was met at the dock BY the entire
fire department, the city council and
prominent citizens, the procession being
led by the city band and escorted amid
much cheering to their engine-bouse.
The hose-cart was drawn by about 90
young ladies, while the victorious team
followed behind, There was grand bail
this evening in honor of the teams good
work.

The elections in the states this fall
will undoubtedly be a Waterloo for
the Democracy. With the depression
pervading all industrial interests of the
country and the large army of the un-
employed being constantly increased,it
is no matter of surprise that the citi-
zens should reflect on the good times
enjoyed under Republican administra-
tions and vote accordingly. After
every Democratic success, when the
party has declared in favor of free
trade, an epoch of business depression
has followed. In 1856 it was the same
as now, and, notwithstanding the re-
cent discovery of gold, and the Grim
can war-which furnished an Euro
pean market for our breadstuffs- the
business of the country was very
much depressed and England held the
balance of trade against us to the
amount of $SO,OOO,OOO. When the
presidential election followed in 1860
the protectionists were again placed in
power, and the party put in possession
passed a strong tariff bill. The shadow
of free trade has been sufficient to
convince the American citizens that
the Democratic victory last fall was a
mistake, and at the ballot box next
November they will attempt to re-
trieve their error. 1t seems like
"forlorn hope" for Democrats to nom
mate ticket, but we presume there
are enough office-seekers In the ranks
to furnish all the candidates, even if
defeat Is almost forgone conclusion.

FARM MORTGAGES.

After contributing to the best of his abil-
ity to the election of free-trade Presi-
dent on the ground that protection was
running farmers, Mr.. Edward Atkinson
has made the discovery that farmers have
not been ruined. His recent researches in
clude the States of Illinois, Ohio. Michigan.
Iowa, Kansas, Nebraska and Montana. He
finds that more than half the farms in
these States are free from mortgage of any
kind. and that the amount of the mort
cages. taken as whole. is less than one
half the value of the mortgaged land. He
finds also that half the money loaned on
mortgages has been loaned by citizens Of
the State in which the mortgaged farms
are. The Indebtedness in mortgages of
Western farmers to Eastern capitalists or
10 capitalists who do not reside in the
same State is less than 12115 per cent of the
true value of the farm lands in the States
named. These researches come a little
late, but are better late than never. The
defeat of Harrison in November was
largely due to the persistent misrepresen-
tatiOus of free traders that the protection
system Disseminated against farmers.
