THE SILVER PLATFORM.

The National Silver party in conven-
ton assembled hereby adopts the follow
ing declaration of principles:
/. The paramount issue at this time
in the United States is ind,sputsbly the
money question. 1t is between the gold
standard, the geld bonds and bank SUI
reucy on one side, and the bimetallic
standard, no bosds and government cur
rency on the other. On this issue We de-
clare ourselves to be in favor of a dis
tinctively American system. We are
~unalterably opposed to the single gold
standard and demand immediate return
to the constitutional standard of gold
and silver by restoration by this govern
ment, Independently OF any foreign pow
or, OF the unrestricted coinage Of bott
gold and silver into standard money a
the ratio Of 16 to l. and upon terms o
exact equality as they existed prior I.
1873, the silver coin 20 be full legal ten
der equally with gold for all debts an.

dues public and private, and We favor
such legislation fs Will prevent further
characterization of any kind Of legal ten
der money 10y private contract. We
hold the power to control and regulate
paper currency is inseparable from the
power to coin money, and hence that all
currency intended to circulate as money
should be issued and its volume con
trolled by the general government only,
and 1T should be legal tender. We are
unalterably opposed to the issue by the
in time Of peace, and We denounce as a
b!under worse than a crime the present
treasury policy, concurred in by the re-
publican house, of p!unging the country
in debt 10y hundreds of millions in a vain
attempt to maintain the gold standard
bv borrowing gold, and we de nand the
United States as provided by existing
laws in either gold or silver coin at the
option of the government and not at the
option Of the creditors.
,. That over and above all other ques-
tons Of policy, we are in favor OF restor-
ing to thepeople Of the United States
| the time, honored money Of the constitu-
~tion-gold and silver, not one but both
the money Of Washington, Hamilton,
jefferson, Monroe, Jackson and Lin
coin, to the end that the American PEG,
! pie may receive honest pay for honest
product, that the American debtor may
a his just obligations in an honest
standard and not in a standard that has
appreciated 100 per cent above all the
great staples OF the country, and to the
end further that present silver STANDARD
countries may be deprived Of the unjus
advantage they now enjoy in the differ
ence in exchange between gold and sill
ver-an advantage which tariff legisla
ton alone cannot overcome.
We therefore confidently appeal to tn
people OF the United States to leave i
allegiance for the moment all other ques
tions, however important and even mt
mentous they may appear-to sunder
need be all former party ties and affiili'
tlone, and unite in = supreme effort t
free themselves and their children frol
the domination OF the money power
power more destructive than any whic
has ever been fist ned upon ~ciyilize
man Of any race or in any age. An
upon the eor summation OF II desire
and efforts We invoke the gracious fav,
OF Divine Providence.

The democratic congressional COM
ISSUES a manifest, from Washing
ton warning the voters OF the United
States against the designs OF the repub-
lican national committee in the coming
election. 1t says it is we'll known by all
parties that il q free and u~ulnhuenced
vote could be had to-day Bryan wonld
be overwhelmingly elected, and that the
preposterous claims made by the gold
republican management have been made
with the ulterior purpose of covering up
great steals and fraud to be committed
by them ia the coming election. To
this end the manifesto states that the
republican management have laid by
several millions OF money TO be used
election day. Beaten at every point, the
last resort OF money is to buy the ballot
Of the voter by purchasing his absences
from the polls or to coerce his vote By
intimidation. Secretary Edgerton OF the
populist national committee hes issuet

against the preposterous claims Of th'
republicans and their intention to pur
chase outright the voters and electins

Chairman Elliott is quite modest IN

Sioux Falls Press, 80: On next Mon
day the railroads will restore the freight
rates on coal and wheat which existed
before the cut. The coming rate Will
raise the transportation tariff on hard
coal from 81 to 8 per ton, and will add
about 3 cents a bushel to wheat. The
old rate on wheat to Minneapolis was Is
cents a hundred and to Chicago % cents
a hundred. This was cucson October
u to 1919 cents to Minneapolis ard 20
cents to Chicago. The tariff of Novem-
Der 2 restores the rate on wheat to the
old tariff, which makes a difference to
producers OF 3 cents a bushel. The new
rate which goes into effect Monday rails
es the rate on hard coal from 81 to g
ton. All the Sioux Falls dealers, have
shipped in their winters supply OF Goa
as they did last year while the cut was
on, and there is no reason why the price
of coal should advance here 81 a ton.
