Financial Platforms.

HARTFORD, Conn, Sept. O.-The
platform adopted by the state reDubli-
can convention says: "Tbe republican
party, now, as always, the party Of
honest money, holds that American
silver, as well as American gold, ahould
be used as standard money under such
international agreements as will In
sure a maintenance Of the parity OF
values.
SPOKANE, Wash, Sept. D.-The
Republican state convention votGd
both ways on the silver question.
The first tilt came over the silver
plank. The committee bad been evenly
divided on the subject and reported
two resolutions. They were discussed
with great earpestness for oyer two
hours and finally the free silver plank
providing for free coinage at Is to ]
was beaten by vote Of 224 to 26l.
The platform favors such legislation
as will control and effectively carry
out the constitutional requirements
for the passage Of laws regulating
freights and fares. The coinage plank
as first adopted, says the republican
party Of Washington believes In sound
and honest money and to the end that
we may have sound and stable cur
rency, we declare ourselves in favor Of
bimetalism. We instruct our senators
and representatives in congress TO ia
vor such legislation as shall secure alb
solute equality in the debt paying
power of every dollar Of money of the
country, whether of gold, silver or
paper.
Upon re-assembling in the evening,
Judge Parson, of Pierce county, moved
to reconsider the vote by which the
financlal plank had been adopted and
was seconded by Spokane. The silver
controversy was thus reOpened and
about to be more vigorously contested
than before. The debate lasted until
half past ten. When the vote was
taken reconsideration carried by 3l7 TO
1888. Taylor, of Pierce, offered substi.
tute, calling for free coinage of Amer
lean silver. John Wiley, Of King,
offered resolution as follows:
Resolved, That we are In favor Of
the free and unlimited coinage Of gold
and silver produced by the mines of the
United States at ratio Of l6 to L."
This resolution carried by 266 to 219
and the result was cheered loudly aud
long.
