A MODEL PLATFORM.

L
the Peoples party shall, ut its ST.
Louis conference, TO be held
December IS and 20, adopt the
declarations of the Iowa Populist
State conference held on Monday
last, upon the currency question,
and have it understood that the
Populists will fight the campaign
upon that issue-holding in abey-
ance all others except sucn as the
country is practically agreed up
on : the Peoples party win carry
q majority of the States ut the
next election. The declaration is
so terse. SO comprehensive. and
yet so conservative that the News
prints it conspicuously that il
may not b. forgotten. Ic is AS
follows:
Whereas, The contention of the
Peoples party that the great need
Of this country has been and is All
enlarged volume of money, is
now practically conceded by all
parties and by the Govern ment
and.
Whereas, The gold power and
the banks are insisting, through
the President and his Secretary,
that the enlarged issue of our cur
rency supply shall be given ex-
clusively into the hands OF the
banks; that silver sh,ll be ex-
cluded and that gold alone shall
be legal tender; now, therefore,
be it,
Resolved, That, without at
tempting to make a platform for
our party, this conference insists
upon the restoration Of the coin
age Of gold and silver as it ex-
listed prior to 1878, and that all
paper currency shall be issued 10y
the Government without the in
PREVENTION of banks of issue, the
same to be a full legal tender.
We also declare our implacable
hostility to the further issue of
interest-beariLg bonds. Upon
these principles we declare cur
political faith and we invite the
cooperation of all patriotic citI-
zens against the further encroach
ment OF corporate power.
What Western voter, what per.
son in favor of an honest, sound
currency and the restoration of
the country's departed prosperity,
cannot approve such a platform
and support the party that adops
it? 1t is:
The free and unlimited coinage
OF gold and silver at the ratio Of
Is to /.
All paper money shall be issued
by the general Government, with
out the intervention of banks of
issue, the same to be full legal
tender.
Implacable hostility to the
further issuance of interest bear
ing bonds.
Upon these principles the party
declares its political faith and in
vites the corporation OF all patri-
otto citizens against the further
encroachments OF corporate
power.
1t viii! be observed that the
volume to which the currency
should be increased is left un'
touched. The platform confines
itself to principles alone. When
the principle have won when free
coinage, the Government issuance
OF all money, and no further in
ter St bearing bonds shall have
prevailed, then details will bt
settled by Congress and the peo-
pie and they will be settled

THE DowAGER DUCHESS OF MARLBOROUGH.
able beauty won for her the sobriquet OF
1.-The Pearl" She was a pearl of great
Price, too, for she succeeded in marrying
Louis C. HaInersley, who soon succeeded
to the 81, 900, 600 estate of his father, An
drew G. Eamersley. There was a string
attached to tho fortune, however, for the
will left tho estate to the son for life and
further directed hat the son at his death
should will the property according to di-
rections left with the family lawyers.
Louis c.. Hamersley died soon afuer his ia
ther, leaving the immense fortune to his
widow during her life. At her death the
estate was to go to several New York chart
ties, providing j.. Hooker Hamersley, a
cousin, possessed no male heir. If he did
possess q son, tho son was to receive the
fortune. j. Hooker Hamcrslcy was then
a bachelor, but he soon married, and his
second child, a boy, is now called "the
81, 600, 600 infant"
After FIVE years Of mourning Mrs. Ham
ersley married the Duke of Marlborough
Mt the city hall, Now York. Tho new
duchess paid her husbands debts and pre-
vented historic Bienheim castle from pass
ing to his creditors. In November, 1892,
the duke died suddenly, ard his son forced
the duchess to leave Bitiheim, although
her money had made it possible for him to
possess it. The duchess is now called tbs
dowager Duchess of Marlborough, but as
the present Duke OF Marlborough has 70
wife, and rs his mother, the divorced wife
of the late duke, is sill living. the Ameri-
can duchess right to the title is not plain.

GUARDS AND TACKLES.
The PriDeefOn-Yale Squab5le TO he
Settled Tomorrow.

The conference between Managers Ca
BILE and Mum of Princeton and Yale
yesterday was without result, the cues
ton of selecting grounds for the Prince
ton-Yale game being left undecided.
After ~wrangling for over two months
the managers will allow the Athletic
Committee of the University Athletic
Club to select the place. This commit
tee consists of George Adee of Yale,
Lloyd MeKim Garrison of Harvard,
Guy Richards of Columbia, C. C. Guy
Ter of Princeton and C. F. Mathewson
of Dartmouth. This committee will meet
tomorrow and settle the matter in short
order. From present indications the New
York Clubs offer to lease Manhattan
Field will be accepted. The members
of the U. A. C. Committee are impair
tial. and the objections raised by Hinkey
and Cable will not be considered as i'm
porsantrenough to transfer the game TO
another ground. AS Princeton has been
in favor of Manhattan Field from the
start the Tigers are jubilant today.
Arrangements for the P~rinceton-Penn-
svlyanfa game, at the Trenton Fair
Grounds next Saturday have been prac-
tically completed. An open stand, ac-
commodating 1850 persons, has been
erected, and the big grand stand has
been put in good shape.
In the controversy between Yale and
Princeton this season it must be sald
that Captain Trenchard OF the Iatter
team has acted the part OF a thoronsa
SPORTSMAN. He has met every demand
of old Eli's sons in & fair, square way,
and has not rushed into print with rash
statements as others have DONE; Man
ager Mum has followed Captain Irench-
ards course closely.
