Platform and Resolutions Of The Demo-
cratic Party.


The democratic party Of Florida, in
convention assembled, reaffiirms its
allegiance to democratic principles, as
conceived by Jefferson, illustrated by
jackson, exemplified by Cleveland
and promulgated by the Chicago
platform.
We recognize with pride the un-
swerving integrity and patriotism of
President Cleveland, his executive
ability, his wisdom IN maintaining
sound and stable currency and his
steadfast adherence to democratic
| principles.
We hereby heartily endorse the
present state administration as wise,
patriotic and democratic in its adj
ministration OF affairs.
The principles on which the great
democratic victory of 1892 was won
should not be sacrificed at the in
stance of few democratic senator's.
We approve the course of the demo-
cratic house of representatives of the
United States in its efforts to relieve
| the people of all unjust taxation and
burdens. We condemn the course of
those democratic senators of the
United States, who are resisting the
just demands of the immediate rep
resentatives of the people. From the
people The democratic party receives
its power; to The people its first duty
is due.
We are opposed to all legislation
for the benefit of trusts and combines
We approve an amendment to the
constitution Of the United States pro-
viding for the election of senators by
the direct vote of the people of the
several states.
The people of the state being prac-
tically deprived of speedy redress by
reason of the accumulation of bust
ness in the supreme court. it is the
sense of this convention that the
legislature should provide for a tenn
porary commission to aid the court in
the dispatch of its business.
We recommend that the legislature
make ample and suitable appropria-
tions for the maintenance of the
state troops, so that we may have a
thoroughly organized and we'll
equipped corps of militia in this
state.
Believing that the permanency of
free institutions is dependent upon
fair expression at the polls of the
voice of the people, we, therefore,
recommend that the legislature at it
next session, pass such an election
law as will best preserve the purity of
the ballot and give each contending
party representative in the conduct
of elections.
We regard the question of rail-
road commission as one belonging
properly to the several counties of
the state for them to direct legisla-
ton upon, through their representa-
tives.

HOPE DEFERRED.


| But He Doesn't Propose to BE Put on
That Way n the Law VIII Help Him.
Serious consequences are threatened
as result of practical joke played on
William Hope, an impressionable youth
of Weston. On New Years eve Hope
accompanied two young ladies home
from church and on the way proposed
marriage to one of them, Miss Nora
Corcoran.
Miss Corcoran, considering the oppor-
tunity for joke irresistible, slyly wink
ed at her friend and professed to be
quite willing to accept the proposal.
But she called attention to a very serious
difficulty arising from the fact that she
is a Catholic and her lover a Protestant
Under these conditions, she said, they
could not very well marry unless he
espoused her faith. This Hope very glad
ly promised to do.
To have lark Miss Corcoran permit
ted him to go into the house and sent for
several of her friends to witness the
sport Among the number was ex-Bur-
CESS James II. O'Reilly, who offered to
take the part of father confessor. TAX
ing the young man into an adjoining
room, a confession was got from him of
all his past sins, some of which were of a
very startling nature He was then bap-
tized with water and anointed with vase
line and declared ready for the ordeal.
Hope then went into the kitchen, where
Miss Corcoran's father sat calmly smok-
ing pipe, and getting down on his knees
gained the old gentleman's consent to
make his daughter his wife. The cere-
mony was performed and was followed
by wedding march and feast. The
couple were wished all kinds of happi-
ness. At last it came time for the guests
to depart, and they invited the young
man from Weston to go with them
Right here the affair assumed a serious
aspect, as Hope insisted ON remaining be
hind. After considerable hard work he
was finally persuaded to leave, but not
until the bride had promised to 60 with
him on wedding tour the following day.
Now the affair has a still more serious
look, as it is alleged the marriage in the
eye of the law is legal. Friends of the
bride will seek legal advice, as it is re-
ported the bridegroom and his friends
will insist on his rights. Ex-Burgess
O'Reilly, who performed the ceremony,
is on nettles, as he fears arrest for his
part in the affair. Miss Corcoran is
prostrated at the turn affairs have taken
and declares she will not live with Hope.
