PLATFORM COMMITTEE MEETS.
Irish Talks Against Silver and the
Women Have an Inning.

The Committee on Platform and Res
olutions met in the parlors of the
Golden Eagle Hotel after the noon re-
cess yesterday, and consumed consd-
cradle time in getting down to work.
From the start it was evident that the
fight would be upon the financial ques-
ton, and it was agreed at length that
the sense of the meeting should be
shown. and parties given chance to
express themselves.
This was the commencement of the
trouble. and Colonel John P. Irish took
the floor and offered the following res
olution, which, he stated, had been the
result OF a meeting of about fifty dele
gates of the convention:
I'VE indorse the administration of
President Cleveland as wise patriotic
and Democratic. We commend his
fidelity in maintaining the financial
honor of our country sacred and un-
impaired.
From tradition and practice Cali
fornia is welded to a gold standard.
Her obligations are payable only in
United States gold coin, and the with
drawal of gold from our currency. the
inevitable result of silver at Is to /.
will render it more difficult for Cali
fornia's debtors to pay their debts.''
The vote, which was merely test.
showed that the committee were
strongly opposed to the measure. and
in favor of an unlimited flood of silver
at the usual ratio. The vote stood
Ayes 4, noes %
Sam Braunhart of San Francisco
then got the floor and offered the usual
1c to l plank, and providing that the
delegation to the Chicago Convention
be instructed to vote as a unit upon
the matter.
The committee. however. was not
yet ready to jump at anything. and
it was determined to appoint a SUBJ
committee of five members on what
were considered important subjects.
with instructions to prepare appropriate
planks to be submitted to the commit
tee.
Accordingly, the Chairman appointed
the following sub-committees:
