THE PLArFoRM.

The following is the platform as reported by
the sub committee to the full committee on
resolutions at its meeting Wednesday morn
ing:
we, the democrats OF the United States in
national convention assembled, do reaffirm
our allegiance to those great essential prin-
ciples Of justice and liberty upon which our
institutions are founded, and which the demo-
cratic party has advocated from Jeferson's
time to our own-freedom Of speech, freedom
of the press, freedom of conscience. the
preservation OF personal rights, the equality
OF all citizens before the law and the faithful
observance of constitutional limitations.
Recognizing that the money question is par.
amount to all others al this time, we invite
attention to the fact tht the federal consti.
tuition names silver and gold together as the
monev metals Of the United States, and that
the first coinage law passed by congress under
the constitution made the silver dollar the
unit Of value and admitted gold tn free coin
age at a ratio measured by the silver dolla'
unit
We declare that the act Of 1873 demonetizine
silver without the knowledge or approval OF
the American people has resulted In the APP
nreciation of gold and corresponding fall IL
the prices OF commodities produced by the
people; a heavy increase In the burden OF tax.

We are unalterably opposed TO the SINGLE

OF hard times. Gold moaometallism is

had opened the campaign in splendid style.
They had swept over the sklrmish line and
their further duty was plain. Let us declare
we are to promuleese q platform that shall
not obscure or defect public attention from
the one great issue upon which the campaign
was to turn; that we mean to unlock the doors
OF the mint and put silver back where 1t was
before (cheers). Let us declare further that
we do not approve the issue of interest bear
ing bonds in times OF peace, or OF giving the
option OF purchase to the man holding the OBJ

in TIE FASTNESS OF NATURE

sheepherders are quarreling over each
others claims just east of the Cascades.
1.-THE ascent from Elwah River to the
mountain top is so gradual as to be scarcely
noticeable. After travelling for long
time with very little labor we looked back
to discover to our surprise that we were
far above the river. The timber there IS
wonderfully open and free from under
growth. We could see long distances in
all directions through the woods. The
trees are immense. We cut down cedar
that measured 300 feet.
"Game of every sort was most plentiful.
There were black bears, cougars and large
gray wolf almost the size of Newfound-
land dog. This seems to be the last resort
of the elk, and from the manner with
which it is slaughtered it will not remain
long there. We found an animal which l
had never before seen. l have looked it
up in the books, but have been unable to
find any exact description of it. There is
an animal called the nernit which an
swers something of its description. We
found it only above the timber line in the
mountains. 1t is about the size of pug
dog. 1t lives in holes, dug Straight down
ward, and is almost never seen except as
it sits on the edge of the hole. 1t whistles
like man and deceived MS continually.
As we passed along the trail we could hear
this whistle, as of some man hailing US.
Turning, we would, if the conditions were
right, discover the little whistling mer-
nit as we have agreed to call it, sitting
perfectly motionless above its nest. 1t we
moved on he would hailus again with his
sharp, shrill cry. If we shot at him the
bullet must kill instantly ~r we would lose
him, for if he had one kick of life remain
ing it would drop him into his hole. We
caught quite a number, however, and
found them very fine eating. The animal
has long fur, which is very fine. 1t is
very fat and yields an excellent oil. There
were great quantities of game birds, grouse
and pheasants in particular, and the
streams were filed with fish.
"On the north slope of the second rsnge
of mountains we found two glaciers,
which were ten miles across and contain
ing crevasses into which you could drop a
house.
1--WE found several mineral springs con
tanning iron and sulphur water, which
even the horses seemed to like.
sour first definite stop out from Port
Angeles was at place called Death Val
ley. 1t is on the Government trail, and is
desolate and depressing place. The next
was at Starvation Flat, 400 feet up the
mountain. 1t was marked and so named
by the Government engineers. From there
we moved on to Government Pass over
the mountains, to where we finally located
and remained. We found in our prospect
ing a veritable mountain of iron. After
ward we located what we consider very
valuable lead of gold and silver ore, which
we are making arrangements to work"
