ors. We approve of the refusal Of the
Pacific railroad funding bill and de-
nounce the efforts of the present Re-
publican congress TO enact a similar
measure,
PENSIONS.
Recognizing the just claims Of de-
serving union soldiers we heartily en-
dorse the rule OF the present commits
sioner OF pensions that no names shalt
be arbitrarily dropped from the pen
sion roll; and the fact Of enlistment
and service shonld be deemed con-
elusive evidence against disease and
disability before enlistment.
TERRITORIES.
We favor the admission of the ter
ritorles of New Mexico, Arizona and
Oklahoma into the United States,
and we favor the early admission Of
all the territories haylng the neces-
sary population and resources to en-
title them to statehood, and while
they remain territories, we hold that
the officials appointed to administer
the government of any territory to-
gether with the District of Columbia
and Alaska, should be bona fide resi-
dents OF the territory or district In
which the duties are to be performed
The Democratic party believes In
home rule and that all public lands
OF the United States should be appro-
priated TO the establishment of free
homes for American citizens. We
recommend that the territory Of
Alaska be granted delegate In con-
gress, and that the general land and
timber laws of the United States be
extended TO said territory.
MONROE DOCTRINE.
The Monroe doctrine Is originally
declared,and as interp reted by succeed
ing presidents, Is permanent part OF
the foreign policy OF the United
States, and must at all times DO main
talned'
We extend our sympathy to the
people Of Cuba In their heroic strug-
sle for liberty and independence.
THIRD TERM.
We are opposed TO life tenure In the
public service. We favor appoint
ments based upon merit, fixed term OF
Office, and sach an administration OF
the civil service laws as will afford
equal opportunities 10 all citizens OF
ascertained fitness. We declare II TO
be the unwrltten law OF this republic,
established by custom and usage OF
one hundred years and sanctioned by
the examples of the greatest and
wisest of those who founded and have
maintained our government, that no
man should be eligible for a third
term In the presidential Office.
WATERWAYS.
The federal q 7ernment should care
for and improve the Mississippi river
and other great waterways OF the re-
public, so as TO secure for the Interior
states easy and cheap transportation
TO tidewater. When any waterway OF
the republic Is OF sufficient import
ance TO demand aid OF the govern
ment such aid should be extended up
on definite plan OF continuous work
until permanent Improvement Is
secured.
COn6dlng In the justice OF our cause
and the necessity OF its success at the
polls, we submit the foregoing declar-
atiOns of principles and purposes TO
the considerable judgment Of the
American people. We invite the sup
port OF all citizens who approve them
and who desire 20 have them made
effective through legislation for the
relief OF the people and the restoration
OF the country's prosperity,

A MODEL PLATFORM.

A Alcp,ed by the Democrats In National
Convention.
The following is the full and com.
plete platform as adopted by the
National Democratic convention:
We, the Democrats Of the United
States In national convention asSemb-
led, do reatfirm our allegiance to those
great essential principles of justice
and liberty upon which our inStitu-
tions are founded, and which the
Democratic party has advocated from
Jefferson's time TO our own-freedom
of speech, freedom of the press, free
dom of conscience, the preservation of
personal rights, the equality of all
citizens before the law, and the faith
full observance of constitutional limi-
tations.
During all these years the Demo-
cratic party has resisted the tendency
Of selfish interests to the centraliz-
alton of governmental power, and
steadfastly maintained the integrity
of the dual scheme of government
established by the founders of this
republic of republics. Under its
guidance and teachings the great
principle Of local self-goVernment has
found its best expression in the main
tenance of the rights Of the states
and In its assertion of the necessity
Of confning the general government
to the exercise of powers granted by
the constitution of the United States.
RELIGIOUS FREEDOM.
The constitution of the United
States guarantees to every citizen the
rights of civil and religious liberty.
The democratic party has always been
the exponent Of political liberty and
religious freedom and it renews its
obligations and reafirms its devotion
to these fundamental principles of
the constitution.
FINANCE,
Recognizing that the money ques-
tion is paramount to all others at this
time, we INVITE attention to the fact
that the constitution names silver
and gold together as the money metals
Of the United States, and that the
first coinage law passed by congress
under the constitution made the sill
yer dollar the money unit, and adj
mitted gold to free coinage at ratio
based upon the silver dollar unit.
We declare that the act of 1873 de-
monetizing silver without the knowl-
edge or approval of the American peo-
pie has resulted in the appreciation
of gold, and a corresponding fall in
the price OF commodities produced by
the people; heavy increase In the
burden of taxation and of all debts,
public and private; the enrichment of
the money lending class at home and
abroad, the prostration Of industry,
and impoverishment Of the people.
We are unalterably opposed to mon
Ometallism, which has locked fast the
prosperity of an industrial people in
paralysis of hard times, Gold mono
metallism is British policy, and It's
adoption has brought other nations
into financial servitude to London.
1t is not only un-American, but anti
American, and it can be fastened on
the United States only by the sitting
of that spirit and love OF liberty
which proclaimed our political inde-
pendence in l776 and won in the war
of the revolution,

ISSUE OF MONEY.

Congress alone has the power 10
coin and issue money, and PTerident
Jackson declared that this power
could not be delegated 10 corporations
or individuals. We therefore de-
nounce the Issuance OF notes intended
to circulate as money by national
banks as in derOgatiOn OF the eOnstl-
tuition, and we demand that all paper
which IS made legal tender Tor
public and private debts or when ls
receivable for duties TO the United
States shall be be issued by the gov
ernment OF the United States and
shall be redeemable in coin.
TARIFF.
We hold that tariff duties should be
levied for purpose Of revenue, such du
ties 20 be 50 adjusted as 10 operate

We are opposed to the policy ana
practice of surrendering to the hold
ers of the obligations, OF the United
States, the option reserved by law To
the government of redeeming such OBJ
legations in either silver coin or gold
coin.
We are opposed TO the issuing OF in;
