STATE DEMOCRATIC PLATFORM
Adopted by the Democratic State Con-
vention at Little Rock, Ark,
June %, 1894.

The Democratic party of Arkan-
sas in convention assembled hereby
re-aflirms its faith in and allegiance
to the time honored principles of
the national Democratic party as
expressed IN its platforms and rati-
fed in its legislation throughout
the history of the government. In
addition thereto it makes the fol
lowing specific declarations;
We insist upon a strict compli-
ance with the repeated declara-
tons of the party in favor of tar
/ iff for revenue only, to the end that
! the protection favored by the Re
publican party and crystalized in
the infamous determinations of the
Mckinley bill, shall be anuulled and
a fair competition in the markets
of the world shall be opened to the
producers of all classes in the Uni
ted States, and fair exchange for
our surplus products thereby secur-
ed.
To the end that taxation may be
distributed on an equitable basis
and accumulated property pay its
fair share of the expenses Of the
government, which have for so long
a time been borne by the consump-
tion of the people. We favor an
income tax.
We still consider the act of 1873,
whereby silver was demonetized, as
the greatest legislative crime of the
century, and demand the free and
unlimited coinage of both silver
and gold at ratio of sixteen to
one as it then existed
We believe the constitutional
power to borrow money should be
exercised by Congress only in the
event of great emergencies when
the power to levy and collect taxes
commensurate with the require
ments of the occasion cannot be en-
forced without manifest oppression
of the people. Therefore we are
opposed to the issue of bonds in
time of peace,
We congratulate the Democratic
party and the people upon the re-
peal of the odious Federal election
law.
We favor the contlnuedmaintain-
ance of our free public schools in
The interest of general intelligence
and public information
Believing that home rule and To-
cal self Government are cardinal
principles in Republican govern.
ment, we therefore endorse and APP
prove the action of the legislature
of Arkansas in enacting laws rele-
eating to the people the right of
settling the liquor question for
themselves in accordance with the
wishes apd sentiments of the conn
try affected.
We congratulate the people upon
the faithful and economical admin
istration of her state government
under Democratic rule, and invoke
the cooperation of all good citizens
in the perpetuation of so desirable
a condition of affairs.
