DEMOCRATIC STATE PLATFORM
Adopted August ID, 1896.

SECTION 1.-The representatives of the
Democratic party of the state of Wash
ington, in convention assembled, do here.
by reaffirm our allegiance to the princi-
pies OF the party as formulated by
Thomas Jefferson and firmly maintained
by Andrew Jackson.
We believe that constant recurrence
to those fundamental principles OF a free
and popular government, based upon in
dividual liberty and the consent of the
governed, is ever necessary, especially
when the control of this government
threatens to fall into the hands Of
aristocracy, monopoly and despoilers.
SECTION 2.-We greet with hearty APP
prevail the new declaration of independ-
ence enunciated by the Democracy OF the
United States of America at the recent
convention in Chicago; endorse every
principle in it's platform and pledge our
united support to the candidates there
selected.
We recognize in the nomination OF
William Jennings Bryan and Arthur
sewall an inspiration from the Supreme
Ruler OF nations by whose favor our
country has passed through every hour
of trial and of peril and has ever found
leaders equal to the occasion, grand az

cial Advertiser, of Boston, OF that date
Hamilton, under tn: nome de plume oil
Marcelus, wrote
Jefferson, if elected, would turn ont
every Federaist Office holder, 'iumolc

ruin at one stroke and Thus OF necessity
stop all payments of interest on the pub
lie debt and bring on universal bank
ruptcy and beggary.' He would dis

carious supplies OF charity The officers
OF the government, unable to collect
their salaries, would resign, and 'coun-
terfeiting would he practiced with i'm

After Jeflcrsons election the Post said
1.-The message of the president, by what
ever motives may have been dictated, is
Il performance which ought to alarm all
who are anxious for the safety of our
government, for the responsibility OF our
nation. 1t makes, or aims at making, Il
most prodigious sacrifice OF constitutional
energy, OF sound money and Of public
interest, to the popularity OF the man."
And Rev. John Mason, Federalst
Tor Tory minister uttered to his fashion
able congregation in New York, the fol-
lowing prayer: "Send us, if thou wilt,
murrain upon our cattle, a famine upon
our land; send us pestilence to waste our
cities; send us, if it please thee, the
sword to bathc itself in the blood Of our
sons, but spare us, Lord God Most Mer.
ciful, spare US that curse-most dreadful
OF all curses-an alliance with Napoleon
Boraparte."
AS showing the necessity to the coun-
try of all the money the unlimited coin
age of both gold and silver would give,
Mr.. Lewis quoted figures giving the net
earnings Of railroads and banking institu-
lions, as follows: The net earnings of
railroads for transportation during the
year 1895 were 1923 900 900, an increase
over 1894 OF IS 100000; which net earn
ings were increased by rentals, &C., to
$437 100000, or 3's per cent upon all
bonds and stocks, no matter how much
watered.
The number Of banks have doubled
since 1870, and their loans and discounts
trebled. Their circulation has decreased
from $29S, 297 200 in 1876 to Sls5. 254 800
in 1895; while their profits, which in
1870 were 1888 ,S57 900, have grown to
$340, $40 300 in 1885, or, for profits and
surplus, an amount equal to one-half our
stock Of gold.
The effect of this great meeting has
been magical. Our friends are molo
firmly entrenched in their views than
ever; doubtful ones have become con-
WINGED, and the enemy are panic stricken.
They will have to work early and late
from now until election to overcome the
effect of this meeting alone, to say
nothing of the shots that are yet to be
poured into their camp.
Messrs. Lewis and Bridges were met at

ton committee and escorted to the par

THoREAU AS A NATTJRA1,IsT.


 His attachments as naturalist have been by turn exaggerated and belittled one extreme following naturally upon the other. As for the exaggeration, nothing else was to be expected, things being as they were. It is what happens in every such case. If a man knows some of the birds, his neighbors who know none of them, celebrate him at once as an ornithologist If he is re- puted to ''analyze" flower-pull them to pieces under a pocket-lens, and by means of a key find out their poly syllable names-he straightWay be- comes famous as a. botanist; all of which is a little as if the ticket-seller as ffnanciers because of their facility in making change. Thoreau knew his local fauna and flora after method of his own-a method which, for lack of a better word, may be called synpa- thetic. Nobody was ever more success ful in getting inside of a bird; and that, from his point of view and for his pur- pose-and not less for ours who read him-was the one important thing After that it mattered little if some of his flying neighbors escaped his notice altogether, while others led him a vain chase year after year, and are still, in his published journals. a puzzle to all readers.
 Who knows, what his night warble was. or with certainty, his seringo bird? The latter, indeed, native of his own Concord hayfields, he seems to have been pretty we'll acquainted with as a bird; it song was familiar to him, and less frequently he caught sight of the singer itself perehed upon a fenee-post or threading its way through the grass; but he had found no means of ascer- taining it's name, and so was driven to the primitive expedient of christening it with an invention of his own. His description of it's appearance and notes leaves us in no great doubt about it's identity; probably it was the savanna sparrow; but how completely in the dark he himself was upon this point may be gathered from an entry in his journal of 1854. He had gone to Nan tucket, in late December, and there saw running along the ruts, flocks of "a gray, bunting-hke bird about the size of the snowlbunting. Can it be the sea side finch" he asks, "or the savanna sparrow, or the shore lark?" The man who has named all the birds without @ gun" is yet to be announced; the youngest reader of the present article will not live long enough to see him; and Thoreau's studies in this line, it is fair to add, were pursued under limi-
