Tho Platform.

Lno
The Demo Srats of Ohio In convention as-
senbled rcafilrm and indorse the declara.
tion of principles contained In the platform
adopted by the Democratic party In national
convention OF Chicago In 1896, which plat
form declares the money question para
mount to oil others at this time, and Is as
follows:
We invite attention to the fact that the
constitution names silver and gold together
as the money metals OF tho United States,
and tbnt the first coinage law passed by
congress under tho constitution made the
silver dollar the money unit, and admitted
gold to free coinage OF ratio based upon
the silver dollar unit.
We declare that the act of 1873 dcmono
tzng silver without the knowledge or up
proval of the American people has resulted
In the Appreciation OF gold, and a corro-
spending fall In the prices OF commodities
produced by the people; heavy Increase
In the burden of taaXt!on and OF all debts,
public and private; tho enrichment OF the
monoy-endlng class al home and abroad
the prostraton of Industry, and impover.
lshment of the people
We are unulterably opposed to mono
metnllism, which has locked fast the pros,
perity Of an Industrial people in the par.
alysis OF bard times. Gold mono-metallem
Is British policy, and Its adoption has
tude 10 London. II Is not only un-Ameri.
can, but anti-Amcrican, and II can be fas-
tened on the United States only by the
stiAing OF that spirit Of love Of liberty
which proclaimed our political Independence
In 17T6 and won II In the war OF the revolu-
tion.
We demand the free and unlimited coin.
age OF both silver and gold Of the present
ratio OF 10 TO /. without waiting for the aid
or consent OF any other nation. We demand
that the standard silver dollar shan be o
full legal tender, equally with gold, for an
debts, public and private, and we favor
such legislation as will prevent for tho fu-
tuTe the decentralization OF any kind OF legal
tender money by private contract
We are opposed To the policy and prSctice
Of surronderinR to the holders Of the Bbliga-
tions OF the United States the oItion re-
served by law TO the government Of re-
decm!ng such obligations In either silver
or gold coin.
We are opposed 70 the Issuing OF interest,
bearing bonds OF the United States In time
OF peace, and condemn the trafiicking with
banking syndlcates which, In exchange for
bonds Mt an enormous prO8t to themselves,
supply the federal treasury with gold to
maintain the policy of monometalllsm.
Congress alone has the power to coin and
Issue money, and President jackson de-
ctared that this power could not he dele
gated to corporations or individuals. We
therefore denounce the Issuance OF notes
Intended to circulate as money by national
banks as In dcrogation OF the constitution,
and we demand that all paper which Is
made legal tender for public and private
debts or which ls receivable for duties to
the Cnited States, shall be lssued by the
government Of the United States and shall
be redeemable In coin.
In support Of those principles we invite
the cooperation OF all men who love liberty
and hate corruption, oppression and
tyranny.

BURGLAR RUN DOWN.
AFTER Many Years the New York Polic'
Inntnrc n,iIRrA.


New York Sept 6.--EuSene O'Hara,
alias Joe Bates, alias James Brown, AZ,
burglar, highwayman, desperado and
probably murderer, who cut his way
out of Jefferson Market prison here
six years ago and has been hunted
ever since, was rerapturcd by detec-
tves. He made his way to Colon, from
which place he proceeded to Europe,
where he committed series of bold
crimes.
Three years ago O'Harra returned to
the United States, and at Columbus, o.,
was caught in the act of burglary.
He served a term of two and half
years for this crime, and during the
period of his Imprisonment was not
recognized. O'Harra was released re-
Gently and took up residence in Jer-
sey City. He made trips across the
North river, and at last the police
were informed that O'Hara was visit
ing his old haunts here and took steps
to arrest him.
In 1885 he was caught robbing a
saloon in this city by Policeman Will
liam Katchale. OIIara made an at
tempt to shoot the policeman, but was
finally landed in the station house.
Before being sent to state prison a sec
ond time O'Hara threatened to kill
Katchale as soon as he had served his
term.
On Aug. Z, 1891, Policeman Katch-
ale's dead body was found floating in
the North river and the mystery of his
tragic death has not yet been cleared
up AS O'Hara was known to be out
Of prison orders were given to arrest
him on suspicion of having killed
Katchale.
Four days after the finding Of the
poiceman's body Patrolman Thomas
f. Mcclure was stabbed three times
in the back by O'IIara After a fight
with another policeman named Sher-
wood the murderous crook was over
powered and arrested. O'Hara cut the
prison bars with saw and escaped,
