SILVER PLATFORM.

u 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 inaisputably the
money question. 1t is between the gold
standard, the gold bonds and bank cur
rency on one side, and the bimetallic
STANDARD, no bonds 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
er, of the unrestricted coinage Of both
gold and silver into standard money at
the ratio Of 16 to l, and upon terms OF
exact equality as they existed prior to
1873, the silver coin 20 be full legal ten.

dues public and private, and We favor
such Legislation as will prevent further
demonstration of any kind Of legal ten.

power to coin money, and hence that al

ment "a mere delusion, calculated To
deceive), we consider it the great issue
OF the century, paramount to protective
.ar:ff or anything else, ard throw our
influence in favor Of the free and unlim-
tied coinage of silver ut the ratio OF Is to
|. With this question as the sole issue,
we prefer to stand on the single but
manly declaration Of the silver party
whose platform we endorse. When this
great question is settled We shall he
ready to again stand WITH the republican
party in advocacy Of those minor princi-
Piles which it now processes and which
for the present are eclipsed by the mon
ey issue. To achieve the greater sue
cess for free silver it is necessary that
we join the forces OF the free silver
movement which, from every party, ar
now united in the common cause, en-
dorsing one ticket with William j. Bryan
at The head.

Names election is a good reminder to
silver men Of whatever party to vote for
their own interests. II all the states
west OF the Alleghanies will vote as
solidly for their own interests as Maine
has done. VIM. Mckinley will carry very
few of these states. Maine, however,
did not vote for presidential electors at
this time as many suppose, moi were the
democrats prepared to put up n fight.
Their state convention bad been held
before the Chicago convention and their
platform utterances we're not. in har-
mony with the national platform. They
met again to readjus this which created
considerable friction and necessary re
organization along new lines. The eam
paign was on before this could be fully
accomplished and the result could no,
be otherwise than what it was. With
the personal interests of state officers
and congress men out OF the way, and al
silver forces harmonized u organized
for the presidential campaign, the result
may be vastly different, though, as We
said at the outset, Maine people could
not be expected to vote against then
own special interests. Single gold stan
dard and hi Ga protection is what they
want no matter how it robs the rest o.
the country.

currency intended to circulate as money
should be issued and its volume con-
trolled by the general government only,
and it should be legal tender. We are
unalterably opposed to the issue by the
United States Of interest bearing bonds
in time Of peace, and we denounce as a
blunder worse than a crime the present
treasury policy, concurred in by the re-
! publican house, Of plunglng the country
in debt by hundreds of millions in a vain
attempt to maintain the gold standard
by borrowing gold, and we demand the
payment of all coin obligations OF 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.
J. That over and above all other ques-
tions Of policy, we are in favor Of restor-
ing to the people of the United States
tie time.Lonored money Of the constitu-
tion-go.I and silver, not one but both
the money Of Washington, Hamilton,
jefferson, Monroe. jackson and Lin
coin, to the end that the American peo-
pie may receive honest pay for honest
product, that the American debtor may
pay his just obligations in an honest
standard and not in a standard that has
appreciated 100 per cent above oil the
great staples of the country, and to the
end further that preset silver standard
countries may be deprived OF the unjust
advantage they 10Y 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 the
people of the United States to leave in
allegiance for the moment all other aues-
tons, however important and even mo-
mentOus they may appear-to sunder II
need be all former party ties and affillia-
tlons, and unite in one supreme effort to
free themselves and their children from
the domination Of the money power-a
power more destructive than any which
has ever been fastened upon civilized
man OF any race or in any age. And
upon the coEsummatiou Of our desires
and efforts We invoke the gracious favor
Of Divine Providence.

". j. Bryan: "Some OF our opponents
tell us the thing to do is to open the
mills instead Of the miEts. That re-
minds me OF the man who said his horse
would go all right if he could only get
the wagon started. 1t is putting the
cart before the horse. What is the use
for mills unless the people can buy what
the mills produce; and how caE you
start them SO long as those who produce
the wealth of this country, particularly
the farmers, are not able to get enough
out Of what they raise to pay their taxes
and interest"
The Madison daily leader. [volume] (Madison, S.D.) 1890-current, 1896-09-17

The ticket nominated yesterday by
the peoples party In county convention
is a strong one--strong because of the
unimpeachable character and ability OF
the men nominated. The county ticket
throughout is composed OF men publicly
noted for their probity, fitness for their
respective offices, and popularity in
their respective localities or wherever
best known. The legislative ticket is a
strong one, being composed Of men who
are regarded as stalwarts in the peoples
and democratic parties. For integrity
and intelligence, NJ. E. Hart, the nomi.
nee for state senator, is the peer Of tny
man in the county, and the same may be
said of NJ. H. Hegdal, the Scandin avian
representative for the legislature. Both
men are deserving we'll Of their party
for lolg and faithful service in it and
will have It's solid support. Then, there
is Joseph Powers, the old wsrhorse Of
the democratic party in the county, who
will bring his party with him and the
nnion Of the two on the silver issue viii
make the entire ticket invincible.

Err had hoped &c continue to plead the
cause Of silver and remain within the
republican party, as it started out to do
after IT, st. Louis convention, being in
hal mory with that party on all other
principles set forth in it's platform and
thinking that the question Of tariff as
heretofore would be the dominant issue.
But the friends OF the white metal have
made its reconciliation the great issue
Of this campaign and have placed the re-
publican party on the defensive in main
tanning its declaration in favor Of a SID
gle gold standard. That declaration We
do not believe to be consistent with the
past u~tterances and record Of the party
on this question, Lor do We believe it
now to be for the best interests Of this
country. 1t is a question Of such great
moment to the future perpetuity Of this
republic and the democratic character
of it's institutions that We wonder it hai
not been forced to the front long ago
1t no doubt would have been but for the
fact hat the great republican party hat
ever, until this year, held out the hop.

CONNECTICUT CONVENTION.

Silver Men Control the Nutmeg Demo-
cratic G thering.
NEW HAVEN, Conn, Sept. 1.-THE
Democratic state convention began its
business with every indication of being
as memorable an occasion as has ever
arisen in the political history of Con.
necticut. While the delegates, mum
bering 800, were almost solidly for en-.
dorsement of the Chicago platform and
candidates, the whole machinery of the
party in the state was in the hands of
gold standard men. Anticipating the
upset which this condition made inevi.
table, IL members of the state central
committee resigned. There was also
talk, before the convention had
met, that there would be a bolt
Of the gold standard men at a
time when such action might be ex-
pected to have an effect more or less
spectacular. The convention is for the
selection Of presidential electors and
for the nomination of candidates for
the governorship and other state Off
GERS. Chairman David, Of the state
committee, called the convention to Or
der, but made no speech. William
Kennedy, of Naugatuck, was desig.
mated as temporary chairman, the an
nouncement being received with tn.
multuous cheers, which were renewed
when in his speech he praised the Chi
cage platform and candidates.
The temporary officers were made
permanent.
After Chairman Kennedy had read
| the designations of the state committee
men a delegate moved that they be &C.
copied, with theathanks Of the con-
vention." The motion was adopted
amid loud cheering and other marks OF
approval. The committee on resolu.
tons not being ready to report the com
mittee took a recess until / p. IN.
A new state committee was appointed,
all the members of which are in accord
with the declarations of the convention
on the currency question. Presidential
electors were also selected and the fol.
lowing nominations for the several state
Offices made: Governor, Joseph B. Sar.

Up a Candidate For
Governor,
There Was a Sharp Fight Over
This Matter in Their
Convention.
Connecticut Democrats Endorse
the Chicago Platform With
Enthusiasm.

CHICAGO, Sept. l7.-After nine hours
of exciting debate, the Populist state
convention tacitly endorsed Governor
Altgeld, by leaving the head Of their
ticket blank. The following is the
ticket as nominated.
Lieutenant governor, Henry D..
Lloyd secretary of state, L. A. QueIl-
MALI auditor, Grant Dunbar; attor.
ney general, E. I. Burdick state treas
urer, Joseph Schwerzgen trustee state
university, Mrs. Fannie Kavanaugh /;
electors at large, A. H. Allen, Boone
county, o. l.. Bearess, Bureau county.
The fight of the convention was over
the question of a gubernatorial nomi-
nation, and once or twice police were
called in to eject d%isorderly delegates.
A compromise was finally agreed upon,
the head Of the ticket being left vacant,
and Henry d. Lloyd, slated for the nom.
ination for governor, being nominated
or lieutenant governor. The platform
adopted endorses the St. Louis conven.
ton and contains the following:
I'VE do most heartily endorse the
wisdom Of the national convention in
the nomination of Thomas E. Watson
for vice president of the United States,
and most emphatically d%enounce any
action which prevents the Populists OF
any state from the privilege of casting
their ballots for him."
The remaining presidential electors
will be presented to the state executive
committee by each congressional dis
trict.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Dec. 13.-Among
the papers that will be laid before the
House tomorrow will be the documents
in the matter of the contest by Alexis
Benert for the seat from the Fifth Louisi-
ana District for the present term OF the
Fifty-fourth Congress, fer which G. J.
Boatner holds a certificate as the result of
a special election held November last.
Boatner and Benert were opponents at
the election of 1894, and Boatner at that
time received certificate of the full term,
but he was unseated last spring as the re-
suit of contest by Benert. The House,
however, refused to give the contestant
the seat for the reason that while
Boatners election was inval. d, Benert
did not receive a sufficient number of
votes to warrant the House in declaring
him elected. So they tried it over again
last month and now Benert asks the
House to review the election. The con-
test will go to the Committee on Elections,
of which Johnson (R.) OF Indiana is
chairman.
