Strike DELAYS the Lucan;a.

New YORK, Sept. 1S.-The Cunard
line steamer Lucania arrived at her pier
"a hours behind time. The primary
cause of the Lucania's delay was the
strike at Liverpool, which compelled
the company to man the great steamer
with boys and inexperienced men as
firemen, who were unable to keep up
the steam to the standard required.

PoL'rlcs,n CRAWFORD COUNTY

We note that out in Crawford county
the republicans have nominated for
their legislative candidate, DR.. j. j,
McWilliams, OF Charter Oak. We con-
graduate the people of that county on
the opportunity of having so able man
to represent them. Mr.. McWilliams
has lived in Crawford county from boy
hood, is fully identi with it's inter-
ests. and will represent the county in a
capable manner. He is in the prime of
life, ambitious to do the right thing,
sound in judgment and outspoken in
his opinions. With a republican
member Crawford will weld influence
in the legislature, while to continue q
democrat means to be minus quantity.
We expect to see our beloved Crawford
county in the republican line. 1t can
not be that the big Drained, capable
Germans, who are 80 successful in their
farm operations, will for all time side
with the democratic party whose record
is one of failure and of opposition to
what history comedies to be the best
interests of the country. They can
well make start this year in the right
direction, for they then place them
selves in accord with the men whose
names make glorious the pages of the
history of the United States.-Mason

1.-The monetary standard of this country and

upon the courts, as threatening tie American
people with departure from the policies Of
good government that would prove fraught with
evil to the American people.
The enormites of that platform call for the
resistance of all good citizens. AS republicans
we make recognition OF the loyalty and exalted
patriotism of the sound money democrats and
men Of all parties who put aside partisanship

Iowa State Democratic Platform For
1899.

We, the democrats of Iowa, in con-
ventfOn assembled, unqualitiedly and
unreservedly endorse the Chicago plat
form OF 1886, in whole aud detail, winch
ON THE MONEY QUESTION SAYS:
Recognizing that the money question
is paramount TO all others at Jnls Time,
we invite attention to the tact that the
Federal Constitution names silver and
The Unlted States, and that the first
coinage law passed by Congress under
the Constitution made the silver dollar
the monetary unit and admitted gold
to tree coinage at ratio based upon
the silver dollar unit.
We declare that the act of 1873, de-
monetizing silver without the know
ledge or approval of the American peO-
pie, has resulted in the appreciation of
gold and corresponding fall in the
prices Of commodities produced by the
people; a heavy increase in the burden
OF taxation and OF all debts, public and
private; the enrichment of the money
lending class at home and abroad, the
prostration OF industry and the impoy-
erishment of the people.
We are unalterably opposed to mono
metalism, which has locked fast the
prosperity vi Ou luuuSLIldl p0Oplc III
the paralysis of hard times. Gold mono
metalism is a British policy, and its
adoption has brought other nations
into financial servltude to London. It
is not only un-American, but anti
American, and it Can be fastened upon
the United States only by the sitting
OF that spirit and love of liberty which
proclaimed our political independence
IN l776, and won it in the war of the
Revolution.
FREE SILVER.
We demand the free and unlimited
coinage of both silver and gold at the
present legal ratio of 16 to /. without
waiting for the aid or consent of any
other nation. We demand that the
standard silver dollar shall be full
legal tender, equally with gold, for all
debts, public or private, and we favor
such legislation as will prevent, for the
future. the characterization of any kind
OF legal-tender money by private con-
tract.
