The Illinois Democracy have lined
up fully and squarely upon the prin-
cipl,s OF the Chicago Democratic plat
form, and there is not an unineauing
or ambiguous plank in 1t from begin
ming to end. Every word is couehed
in plain and vigorous English, and
while IL gives its whole heart and sup
port to the administration in the war
against Spain, it denounces in lang.
uage that reaches the judgm Mt Of
every man who reads II, the unjust
and iniquitous policy Of the Repub-
licHn party and the Republican admin
stration which exempts the million.
aires and pampered corporations from
the burdens Of taxations to prosecute
the war and support the government,
and places them on the middle and
poorer classes Of the people.
II does not ask that these classes be
exempt from their Legitimate and pro
per portion Of these burdens, but
it insists that they shall be shared
equally and fairly by all classes Of the
American people.

THE TRIPLE PARTY PLATFORM
The following are the resolutions

by the Populists and Free Silver Re
publicans through the ratification Of
The candidacy of Hon. w. j. Bryan.
We are in favor of the electi n Of the
president of the United States and
United States senators by q direct vote
Uf the people.
We favor such legislation as will en-
able the people Of this territory TO elect
their own officials.
We favor ecor Sruy in the manage

We favor statehood and free homes
We tender the constitutional author
titles our sympathy and support in the
prosecution CT the just war waged by
this country against the misrule and
tyranny of Spain in Cuba, Porto Rico
and the Philippine islands, and tender
our sympathies TO those who have been
called upon to make sacrifices IN the
interest OF this country through the
exactioHs Of this war
We condemn the present. Republican
administration OF Oklahoma as being

We pledge our unanimous support 10

We favor the opening TO settlement
of all Indian reservations within OF

The fact that Gen. Fitzhugh Lee has
been kept at Jacksonville, Florida,
and not sent 20 the front, has excited
much comment, hut IL has generally
been explained on the supposition that
the administration was holding him
back for the purpose Of making him
military governor Of Cuba when the
Spanish were driven from the island.
This explanation seemed To satisfy the
people. but now comes the statement
unofficial, IL is true-that Gen. }. n.
Wilson will receive this honor, Gen.
Lee is too good soldier TO complain
AZ this treatment, but II that should

knization ol the Logan

saturday mesns new blot "a and visor
ia the Democracy Of tIs bounty The
election of Col. snydek as chairman
aud John Sampsell as secretary was
a wise thing on the part of the com.
mittee, and assures harmony and en-.
-rsy in the ranks Of the Democracy in
every section Of the county.
Col Snyder Is an old wheel horse Of
Democracy, and his long services to
the party in various cape cities In the
past will insure confidence and instill
new life into the ranks OF the party.
IL is not saying 700 much when we
assure the party that with Col Snyder
at the head OF the committee the DE.
nocracy of Logan county may feel
a sured that no weak-kneed, mill.And.
water or doubtful policy will be pur-
sued, but that every effort consistent
with duty will be put forth to insure
victory at the polls.
In these efforts every Democrat In
the county should aid him, for without
the earnest and cordial co-operat on
Of the party from every township In
the county he can really effect but
little. The LEADER, with all the earn.
estness OF which il is capable, urges
upon the Democrats everywhere tc
give Col. Snyder and Secretary Ssmp.
sell not only words OF encourage
ment, but their cordial, earnest and
unstinted support.
II there have been some differences
some grievances, supposed or real - in
the ranks OF the old party, put them
aside now and stand squarely for unity
and Democracy. This is the duty OF
every Democrat, and we appeal to
them to give the new officers every
effortin their power for harmony, sol
ldity and victory at the polls.

SANTIAGO MEANS GLoRY ONLY.

Glory represents about all the vic
tory the land forces gained at Santi-
ago As base for operations against
Havana 1t is worthless As base for
operations against Porto Rico II is still
more worthless. Our army cannot go
from there to Havana for the same
reason that Gen. Blanco didn't go from
Havana to the relief of Santiago
Two months ago Havana could have
been taken with less loss OF life and
treasure than il cost 10 take Santiago
II may be said the capture OF Santiago
represents also the destruction OF Ger
vera's splendid feet. That is not true,
it was merely an incident, for when
Cervera ventured into the Caribbean
sea with his feet it was lost There
was no possible chance for his escape
The capture Of Santiago and the
army Of Gen. Toral, however, was not
without advantage TO the United
States. 1t raised the prestige IT the
American army and depressed that Of
Spain. II was the fire OF actual expe-
rieuce in battle needed to fuse and
weld together the PARTICLES Of the
army and make it invinceble In that
sense the Santiago campaign will go
into history as brief but glorious
)ne to the American arms, but rs a
strategic base for future movements
u the army II will be found to be
worthless. The money value Of the
capture of Santiago is nothing. Its
glory is imperishable. This is the
story In brief
