publican party may justly feel proud, it
is of their candidate for prosecuting
attorney, j. Lee Potts of Ithaca. He Is
not IA stranger to the voters of the

of Probate for term of four years.
Without a doubt, he is as good IA trial
lawyer as we have in the state, easily
standing at the head of the Gratiot
county bar. One especial point i'll which
Mr.. Potts excells his rival, is that he has
made a success of his own private bust

Mr.. Lane is bright, active and

Changes Made la the Document After the
Convention Adjourned.


Five or six weeks ago complaints
came from Democratic sources that
some one connected with the national
Democratic committee had made un-
authorized additions and changes ia
the party platform after the Chicago
convention adjourned The platform,
as adopted, was offensive TO or
derby and law abiding citizens in
some respects, and it failed TO
make any enunciation on certain
subjects of great public interest.
To meet these deficiencies some of the
party leaders added a number of para
graphs. In the first the Monroe doe
trine is rcaflirmod.
In the second they added to the SEN
tence, 1--WE are opposed to the life ten
ure in the public SERVICE" the words
except as provided in the constitution, p"
SO that it might not seem to add an
other threat to the one already made,
of reorganizing the supreme court.
They also added this paragraph,
aimed at the A. y. A: 1.-The constitu-
ton 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 re-
aflirms its devotion to these fundamen-
tai principles of the constitution"
This also was added to the para
graph respecting immigration: And
as labor creates the wealth of the
country, we demand the passage of
such laws as may be necessary to pro-
tect it in all its rights. We are in
favor Of the arbitration Of differences
between employers engaged in inter
state commerce and their employees
and recommend such legislation as is
necessary to carry out this principle"
Officers of the state central commit
tee in Detroit have lately charged the
Republican state central committee
with garbling the platform because
the pamphlet which they printed, Civ
ing the declarations of the different
parties, did not contain these para
graphs.
The fact is these paragraphs were
not in the platform as reported to the
convention. They were not adopted
as amendments and they were never,
in any way, authorized by that body.
The copy which the Republican state
central committee used in preparing
their pamphlet was cut from the De-
troit Tribune of July 8. 1t was com
pared with the platform as given in
the Chicago papers of the same date,
and with the platform as given in the
Republican Campaign Text Book. 1t
is Identical in phraseology with
the Official copy furnished by the sec
retarics of the convention to the Assoc
ciatcd Press, and published in almost
every morning paper in the country at
that time. 1t is the platform as re-
ported to the convention ana adopted
by that body V ithout nendnent
The paragl \ rs Cuot abo e d. not
appear in print until after the
convention adjourned. They are APP
parently the results Of an afterthought,
added, without authority, TO make
good deficiencies of the genuine docu-
mcnt; added in the desperate attempt
to disarm the criticism and hostility
with which thousands of Democrats
received that extraordinary exposition
Of combined Democracy and Populisn.

SILVER COINAGE.
over Nine Million Dollars Worth Coin ed
i'm 1895.

| The impression prevails, in many
quarters, that the act Of Nov. /, 1898,
entirely stopped the coinage Of silver.
| This is not so. The act repealed the
section requiring the government to
purchase 4, 900, 900 ounces Of silver each
month for coinage purposes, and added:
And it is hereby declared to be the
policy Of the United States to continue
the use of both gold and silver as
standard money. and To coin both gold
and silver into money of equal intrinsic
and eXchangeable value, such equality
to be secured through international
agreement, or by such safeguards of
legislation as will insure the mainte-
nance of the parity in value of the
coins of the two metals, and the equal
power Of every dollar at all times in
the markets and in the payment OF
debts"
The coinage Of silver has still con
| tinued In the fiscal year ending June
30, S95, silver dollars were coined to
the number Of $3.50, oil, and subsidiary
coinage TO the value of IS, l13, 400, Civ
ing total of 50, O19, $50 for that year.
The coinage of silver dollars for tho
next fiscal year was larger yet, though
the official figures are not at hand.
The amount of silver certificates out
standing Nov /, 1898, was 1924, $50, 532
md of standard silver dollars in crcu-
lation SCI ,672, 455. a total of $3.50, 224 9s7,
and this was at the height of our com
.nercial and industrial prosperity. On
Nov /. 1895. the amount of silver GER
tficates outstanding was S342, 400, 504,
md of standard silver dollars in circu-
ntion, SIS. 3ji .O92, total Of 500, 763,-
so and this was in period of com
ncrcial and industrial depression. The
aggregate Of the two kinds of circua-
lion was Sli,53S, 600 greater in the
latter than in the former period and
This is another confirmation of the fact
that a scarcity Of silver currency is not
the cause Of the present dull times or
low prices. The latter condition is
lraccablc much more directly TO the
'eduction of duties by the Wilson tariff
let than it is To any scarcity of money.
