You talk revolutionary says the ole
lawyer and the conservative. Certainly
we are in the midst Of revolution ol
ideas at least; and which must produce
the substantial results Of revolution be-
fore we can have peace and prosperity
in the land. Radical remedies only will
suffice. And there can be no RdsquBtG
remedy without an enlargement and r0
casting Of old ideas of the functions O.
government. Governments wore m add
FOR man, and not man for government ts
Old beliefs and supergtitions must give
way to the demands Of the age, like the
stage coach to the railway and q hun
drsd other changes that have been
wrought ont in the past hundred years
They must no longer bar the way TO the
perishing, the HllibusterinG, hRir.split-
ting, frivolous csvilers at Washington,
who higgle and sweat over nothing;
must enlarge the area Of their duties
and launch out into the sea Of genuine
statesmanship. The needs and nscssi.
ties Of che present override and over
rule all century worn theories Of govern
ment.
We must lay almost anew the foundR-
tions Of our institutions. AS another
has said, our governments must be es.
tsblished upon such basis as events have
developed, Rs necessary and indeed in
dispenasble to the safety Of the masses
OF the people and to the very existence
of humanity, And in laying anew the
Corner-stones Of the fabric we must
broaden the foundation and fortifY il
with the eternal safeguards that the ex-
psrisnCe Of the past and present events
have shown to be essential for the pro-
tsotion and the defense Of the poor, weak
human nature and the family Of man.
Then and not till then can we talk Of q
"land of the free and home of the
brave, The very object and purpose Of
government, according to Jefferson and
other founders Of states, is to protect
the weak and lowly from the svsriOe and
greed Of the unscrupulous and cunning,
the rich and the powerful. And il 9
government has failed In ito purposes,
the Declaration Of Independence points
to the remedy-the abolition Of that gov
ernment or q radical change in its theory
and principles. Jefferson declared that
all wisdom was not embodied in the
generation in which he lived, nor In any
one generation; and that all human gov
ernmenta should undergo q process Of
revision by every generation Of men as
they come upon the footstoOl; that is,
every thirty-three years, the average
life Of those on earth ct any one time.

uuent observation now that the great
strike is passing away, even from those
who have hitherto derided the idea that
there was anything seriously wrong in oul
economy, that we shall have some legis-
lation now to strsighten things and COR
rect the blunders Of the past. Yes, but
why not before this; to ward it of and
give no occasion for the strike and other
similar demonstrstionsP Why didn't
Cleveland, Sherman & Co. suggest q
commission long ago to inquire what's
the matter in the country, instead Of
waiting till the damage is done, ruin
wrought and lives forfeited? A moiety
Of the time taken in fishing and bear.
hunting would suffice for the inquiry, il
rightly directed, and lead to q happy
solution. For il they seek information
from some other source than Wall street
or from bankers and bond, holders, in q
word, from the plain people, the masses,
whom Jackson and Lincoln consulted,
they would get counsel more to the in
tersst OF peace and quiet and good gov
ernmsnt-in the interest Of all, instead
of the Esw; Of the wags.earners and pro-
ducers, instead OF the spectators and
board Of trade operators who have
hitherto controlled and dominated legis-
latlon.
But the legislation we shall get will
amount to nothing towards curing the
deep seated and chronic evils under
which the people, the bona fde people,
are groRning. II will bs q mere tub
thrown to the whale" to divert him for a
while, or q poultice applied TO the ex-
ternal development without anything to
remove the cause Of the disease. The case
demands something more effective than
plasteFs and Cordials. InVeterate dis
eases require strong mediCines-soms
the very elephant Of medicines, oslomel
and the disease in our case approaches
in seriousness the black death now de-
vRstatiDg parts Of the Old World. For
when crime has increased among us from
one to every $3.50 people q few years
since TO one in every 757 Of our populs-
tlon now; and when $4,000 families out
Of our 65 millions OF people have got
over half the property Of the nation in
their Golfers and 90 almost untSxsd and
are thus fast absorbing the other half;
and when the farmers OF the country,
owners Of less than one.quRrter Of it's
property, bear three-Hourths Of the bur-
dsns Of the government, and, Gs a con-
sequence, the great middle class of the
past (the ConservRtors Of government) Is
being wiped out and It's place taken by
two other Glasses, the employer and the
employed, or the millionaire and the
psupor, there Is something very serious
Hasuredly the matter, and the elephant
Of medicines must be summoned in the
extremity. The extreme maxims OF the
law, as applicable to the public safety
must be invoked. We must strike
boldly for relief, even to the extent Of
employing unusual and extraordinary
means to secure 1t. "SGIus pOpuli, sl-
promo est Eer" is q maxim as old RB gov
ernments and people, and means, "Ths

In the California Republican State

etc. Great confusion followed. The
delegates arose and shook their fists
at Blennerhasset and tremendous
misses arose. Delegates demanded
recognition and the chairman COM
manded all to take their seats,
The following extracts are taken
from the platform as adopted:
1t indorses the National platform of
1892 and again indorsesthe Mckinley
bill. The administration of Governor
Markham is Endorsed and equal and
uniform taxation favored. The re-
peal of the federal election law by
the Democratic Congress is de,
nounced. The Democratic Ha-
waiian policy is denounced. The
Wilson bill is condemned as a section
al attempt to injure the producers,
manufacturers and laborers of the
Nation, and as a corrupt surrender
to trusts which will result in raising
the price of the necessaries of life
and at the same time constantly in
crease the deficiency in the national
revenue, which deficiency will be met
bysuch odious war measures as the
income tax and increased internal
duties. The treatment accorded SOL
dlers and sailors by the Interior De-
partment in payment of pensions is
denounced as an insult.
The public school system is upheld,
and division of school money for any
purpose or to any sect is opposed.
The Democratic scheme to place
wool on the free list is denounced,
and a demand made that this great
industry be guarded by appropriate
legislation from unfair competi ton
with foreign countries.
State and National laws making
trusts, monopolies and combines i'm
possible, are demanded. ..
The silver plank is as follows: We
favor the free and unlimited coinage
Of silver at the ratio Of 16 to l, and
the making of silver as we'll as gold
legal tender in the payment Of all
de BITS, both public and private, and
we pledge our Congressional nomi-
nees to support the principles con-
tanned in this resolution.
The immigration plank is sweeping
1t demands the enactme Mt and strict
enforcement of such laws as will alb
solutely and effectually prohibit the
immigration Of all foreign laborers,
both skilled and unskilled, into this
country.
We favor the extension of the right
Of suffrage to all citizens of the State,
both men and women.
