nople. But Russia absolutely excludes CO

tions in those states in which such do not
exist. 1t will at once open and maintain
permanent national headquarters in the city
of New York.
These headquarters will be in charge of
the chairman of the national committee. who
will give his immediate supervision and so
much of his time as may be required to the
work that may be undertaken by the commit
tee. That work will comprise not only the
perfecting and extending of the political or
ganization, but the disseminating of infor-
nation and the forming Of opinion upon po-
litical questions by means Of literature to be
prepared and circulated under the direction
of the committee, and of addresses to be de-
livered by prominent speakers under its
auspices 1t will be the endeavor of the
committee not only to confirm those Dem
ocrats who are already in sympathy with the
National Democratic movement, in their ad-
herence to the principles of the Indiaeapolis
PLATFORM. but to secure the adoption of those
principles by all others, of whatever previous
political afhliation, that 1t is possible for it
to reach.
It is the unanimous opinion of the mem
bers OF the committee that any alliance be-
tween the Democrats VINO have been op-
pnsco to the Chicago platform and the Re
puhlIcsns is entirely impracticable. These
two elements represent radically conflicting
AMI seemingly irreconciliablc theories Of the
functions of government. All National Dem
ocrats, however, earnestly hope for a reunion
Of the two wings Of the old Democratic party
upon sound and patriotic platform of prln-
ciples-such as time and again they have
stood upon together In the past.
The National Democracy however, is ir-
revocably committed to that governmental
policy that accords equal rights to all, spe-
cial privileges to none-the traditional in
dividualistic policy of the Democracy. This
policy, Of which the indianapolis platform is
the current expression, the National DEM
ocracy. whatever the course of political
events may be, will defend and promote. In
this, Its mission, it will welcome the CO.
