he will introduce his plan in the form

necessity which impels him TO decline

THE money question will be the great
problem for solution. Our country settles
but one great question at a time. The
tariff question is now so adjusted that it
may cease to agitate the country for
years to come. Meantime let the party
of Thomas jefferson take up the money
osity and care for the welfare of the
masses which characterized the admins
tration of our great party leader.
The Republican party has now dis
closed its true instincts and tendencies
as the advocate of class rule.

that we will not have abject poverty in
our midst, but prosperity.

home today.
After remaining in the convention
which declared for gold, the colonel,
it seems, went on to New York and,
according to the Denver papers,
joined with Senator Stewart and some
others in working up the recent silver
meeting at which Senator Tillman
spoke.
Colonel Trumbo is accompanied by
Mr. Shortridge, the noted California

RenubIicans Admit Defeat.

The Republicans generally admit
that if the Democratic national con-

Gratis will sweep Utah like a whirl-
wind. Very few of the g. o. D. ad-

control the legislature, divided as the
organization is between the Mckinley
faction and the silver faction. One of
the most enthusiastic workers for Re-
publican success in the last campaign

that the legislature would be Demo-

THE TWO PLATFORMS.

For the benefit of those who mag
inc that the democratic and populist
national platforms have nothing in
common, except free silver coinage, we
publish the following, showing the
various points of similarity to be
found in the two documents:
The democratic national platform
adopted at Chicago and the populist
platform adopted at st. Louis both de-
clare for free and unlimited coinage Of
silver at the present legal ratio of 16
70, l.
The Chicago platform denounces the
issuance of notes by national banks;
t4e st. Louis platform calls for ma
tional currency without the use Of
banking corporations
The Chicago platform (taking the
official copy demands that paper cur
rency which is, made full legal ten
der, or is made receivable for govern
ment dues; shall be issued by the gov
eminent, and be made redeemable in
coin. The ST. Louis platform, like the
Omaha platform, is silent ON the ques-
ton of coin redemption, but calls for
safe and sound national currency,
full legal tender for all debts public
/ and private.
! The Chicago platform virtually de-
clares for rs-enactment Of the in
come tax law; the st. Louis platform
demands a graduated income tax.
The Chicago platform demands a
stricter federal control Of railroads,
and an enlargement OF the powers Of
the interstate commerce commission.
The, st. Louis platforms calls for gov
srnment ownership and operation Of
the railroads, ito be accomplished
gradually, in manner consistent with
sound public policy"
h The Chicago PLATFORM declares that
all public lands should be appropriated
ta the establishment od free homes for
American citizens. The st. Louis
platform demands that bona fide set
tiers on all public lands be granted
tree homes-and declares against land
monopoly for speculative purposes.
Both platforms denounce judiciary
abuse of power, government by in
junction, and arbitrary Imprisonment
for indirect contempt.
Both platforms declare against the
demonstration OF lawful money by
private contract.
Both platforms declare against is
suing government bonds in time OF
peace.
Both platforms demand that the
government shall not surrender to the
holders of obligations the option as to
what kind of money payment thereoS
