The democratic party OF the
state Of Oregon, in convention as
sembled, do make, declare, and
adopt, the following resolutions:
"First-Whereas, the present de-
pressed condition of the country
and the shrinkage Of values are
largely due TO the financial system
which has controlled the nation for
more than 20 years last past, we,
the democracy Of the state of Ore
gon, hereby declare ourselves as
unalterably opposed to the single
gold standard, and demand the
immediate return to the constitu-
tional standard Of gold and silver
by the restoration by the general
government independently Of any

"We, a minority Of your COM
mittee appointed on resolutions,
beg leave to report the following as
a substitution for resolution No. l:
Resolved, That we indorse the
national democratic platform Of
1892, and the Interpretation placed
thereon by the president, and that
we declare ourselves unequivocally
and unreservedly for the bimetallic
money as standard mintage, the
bullion and mint value of which
have approximately the same pur-
chasing power, and which, regard
less of government mintage, is the
least huctuating in all markets of
the civilized world.
"Be it further resolved, That we
hereby earnestly pledge ourselves
to stand by the democratic nation

democratic national convention
which meets in Chicago this year

"Ninth-We demand the re en-
actment Of the mortgage tax law,
and the amendment Of our assess
ment laws SO that all recorded in
debtedness Of the taxpayers shall
be deducted from his assessment.
"Tenth-We denounce the ex-
travagant acts of the last legislature
as co-expensive with fraud, jobbery
and squandering of the peoples
money, and we censure and hold
the republican majority responsible
for the present condition Of our
public debt and high rate of taxa
ton.
aEleventh-We favor judicious
expenditure of the public money
for the purpose of opening up and
improving our waterways and
harbors.
"Twelfth--R Religious difference
should find no place in American
politics, and the democratic party
is unalterably opposed to the spirit
of intolerant bigotry fostered for
political purposes by those who
seek to breed discord and animosi-
ties among the citizens of the re-
public; secret political bodies are a
curse to party, state and nation.
We heartily welcome the assistance
Of all good citizens who will coop
crate in the suppression Of any
political movement organized for
religious prescription.
"Thirteenth-Resolved, that we,
the democratic party Of the state of
Oregon in convention assembled,
hereby.earnestly ask the congress
Of the United States to take up the
bills now pending before their re-
spective bodies, viz: The house Of
representatives and the senate of
the United States, providing for a
survival pension of the Indian war
veterans Of the United States, and
pass said bills.
"Fourteenth-We favor the pres
ervation Of the salmon industry
Of the state by abolishing all fish
traps, fishwheels and small-mesh
gear, and denounce the republican
party of the state for refusing to
keep its pledge to afford such ur-
gent relief"
Mr.. S. F. Flood then asked per-
mission to read a minority report
from the same committee, which
was granted. The report was as
follows.

we fail to do our duty in this re-
gard, we shall make mistake that
shall lead to the utter destruction
of our party. l urge upon you, by
the old recollections and glories
of the democratic party, to do your
whole duty. The party Of Jeffer-
son, Madison, Monroe, Jackson and
Tilden cannot falter in maintain
ing its standing among the masses
! of the people. We have arrived at
a crises in the affairs of this countr,
that must be met in an intelligen
and patriotic manner. We mus
60 forward or perish.
"The republican clubs, which
met in Portland some time since
had no opinion that they dare ex
press. The republican county cons
vention which recently met i'll
Marion had no idea in regard to
any question that it dare express
an opinion upon. Even the tariff
question was overlooked. It ad-
journed without adopting a plat
form, One of the gentlemen NOM
mated on the representative ticket
stated that if the convention
adopted a platform that did not
suit him he would not stand upon
it but would kick it aside.
"The cowardice displayed by the
republican party is not worthy of
emulation. In the early days OF
the party, it had principles which
it had the courage to declare upon.
The adherents Of the republican
party seem to have more desire for
the offices than for the success of
principles.
"We must not be controlled by
such base or mercenary motives.
If we believe in certain principles,
let us proclaim what they are.
We cannot sit idly by i'll this juno
ture-in the affairs of this country
and fold our arms and say that
we have no opinions that we can
publicly express. This is not in
accord with democratic principles
or measures. This cowardice is
diametrically opposed to the senti-
ments that have made the demo
cratic party the great one that it
has been. Its outspoken ard
manly course; its condemnation of
wrong under all circumstances,
whether it was popular or unpopu-
lar, has brought into it's ranks
men Of courage, and the ablest
minds that the republic has pro-
duced,
LET our actions in this conven.
tion be governed by one purpose,
the welfare of all our people, re-
gardless of their condition. If the
poor and the rich, labor and capital,
receive equitable treatment at our
hands, then all will be well. In
our deliberations, the extravagant
appropriations and squandering of
public funds of the state by the
last legislature should not go un-
rebuked. The wants of our people,
national and state, should be close
ly considered.
II have strong faith in the as
sembled wisdom of the democracy
Of Oregon, and firmly believe that
your people, who have sent you
here to properly represent them,
will not be disappointed in the
trust they reposed in YOU"
