In another place we reproduce
the glst of a democratic platform
suggested by Hon. Horace Boies OF
Iowa. 1t speaks forth the words OF
truth and soberness, and is in line
with ideas expressed by democrats
all over the union. We must get
up strong platform to go before
the people with next year, and such
suggestions are certainly in order.
Let us make no mistake next year,
for if we lose once more the repub'
lican goldbugs will forever fOist gold
mono-metalism upon the country,
and make a huge money trust an
assured thing, when both the bust
ness man and producer can be
squeezed at will by such soulless
monster.

PLATFORM MAKERS.

The platform makers are busy IN
every section of the country. Elk
Gov. Horace Boies, or Iowa, says
that the issues which should be
pushed to the front in 1900 are as
follows:
First-Uuyielding opposition to a
colonial system that requires for IFS
maintenance the exercise in any de-
gree of the military power of the
government.
Second-An un ualified pledge
that the future government of the
Philippine Islands shall upon honor
able conditions be left exclusively TO
the people of those islands, I'M
influenced by the exercise to any
extent of the military power of this
government.
Third-The inYiolate keeping Of
the pledge of this nation that Cuba
shall be free.
Fourth-Opposition to 4 great
standing army.
Fifth-Ceaseless antagonism of
trusts in whatever form organized,
and the immediate removal of all
protective tariffs from goods the
manufacture or sale of which is now
or may be controlled by trusts, how
ever organized.
Sxth-A broad declaration that
the issue of the currency of the
country, both coin and paper, is
rightfully a function of govern
ment alone, the volume of which
should be controlled by the congress
of the nation, instead of by private
corporations organized for indi-
Vidual gain.
Seventh-An unqualified declara.

Paris, Texas, has an operator in
the pest house, with case of Index
itch, or at least the gentleman
reported that he was at Index and
caught whatever disease he may
nave. The Paris authorities hustled
the fellow out of town and we learn
they will investigate just what par
ticular brand of disease is being
scattered over the country from
this town on Red river. We lean a
Texarkana doctor offered to 90 down
and diagnose the case for a fifty
dollar bill, but the West side coun-
Gil voted not to pay it, and there we
have it. We trust Paris will send a
physician to the place who will can
diagnose the cases at that place
correctly, We do not think the
disease Contagious, for if it was, it
would have been all over this city a
dozen times, for people come and G,
daily between this place and Index,
and we have not heard of a single
case in this city up to this time.

Notwithstanding dozen men are
in Jail at Palestine to answer to a
charge Of murder, committed in the
name of mob, we see that others
are as foolish and rush in to take a
mans life without giving him a
trial. At Nacogdoches, Texas, a
mob visited the Jail looking for a
criminal to whom they might mete
out death without trial, We are
opposed to mob law and would ask
that the laws be so amended that d
speedy trial be given those who
commit murder without proyoca-
ton, or assault upon woman, If
this was done, there would be no
use Of mobs prevailing over the
country.

We confidently expect to see SeDa-

important matters political or 9TH

Shreveport held a city election
yesterday, and it is to be hoped
that the "augeau stables" have
been cleansed. For several years
drunken and dlsorderly officials have
done much to bring that city into
disrepute. Texarkana was once in
the same fix, but our people arose
in their might and not only repudi-
ated the corruptionists, but elected
good men to Office in their stead,
and we have had peace and pros,
perity ever since.

The Opera House

May Hardin has received his op-
era house stock book and is now
ready to issue stock to those who
wish to engage in the enterprise.
The shares are ten dollars each,
payable ten cents on the dollar
down and the balance as the build
ing progresses. We heard the
Mayor say he would he the first to
take stock and it would be a SlO,-
900 slice all at once. This will leave
SIS, 900 to be taken on the outside,
and it should be subscribed without
any hesitancy. We can all afford
to take out one share. $40, We
mean clerks, artisans and wage
earners, while those who are en-
gagged in business, and those who
have landed property in the city,
should go deeper and take from
500 to $500 worth, This money
will not all have to be paid down,
and will come in small payments, SO
that no one will miss it. We believe
the enterprise will pay handsome
interest on the money invested and
that stock in the house can be dis
posed of at any time the holders
get tired of holding it.
The company of gentlemen who
effected the organization, should
put the stock on the market right
away and put the masons to work
so the building will be good and
ready by next season.
