Daily inter mountain. [volume] (Butte, Mont.) 1881-1901, 1899-06-15
PENNSYLVANIA DEMOCRATS.

The democrats of the keystone state
met in convention Yesterday and decid-
ed to make the campaign on local issues.
The Associated Press report of the pro-
making a straight-out declaration in IA
vor Of the Chicago platform was defeat
ed OF course, it was defeated. The
Pennsylvania democrats lave no more
use for the free coinage ratio of Is to l
than has the Anaconda Standard.
But while the refusal to give a
straight-out endorsement of the Chicago
platform was based on the proposition to
make the fight on local issues, it is no.
ticeable that the platform covers the
antitrust question and other matters of
~nationl concern. The convention had a
great deal to say about the Spanish
American war, the chairman declaring
that the freedom of Cuba was due alone
to the 'untiring efforts of the democratic
minority in congress- But not a word in
favor of the free coinage of silver and
gold at a ratio Of 16 to /, by the independ-
ent action Of the American republic.
Several editorials from the Anaconda
Standard We're incorporated in the plat
form as adopted, with the name Of M. S.
Quay substituted for that of w. A.
Clark. BY having the Pennsylvania
platform mortised it can be used by the
next democratic state convention in Mon
tana, by simply removing Quay's name
and inserting hat Of w. ~. Clark. The
fact that the ratio of 16 to / is left out will
leal the Anaconda Standard to accept
such q platform without kicking.
The most significant feature of the
platform adopted yesterday is the BOOM
ing of schley. 1t Classics him with An
drew Jackson and Thomas jefferson,
thus indicating a purpose to place him on
the ticket with Bryan in 1900. Schley's re-
cent trip through the west is given a po-
litical coloring by the action of the Penn
~sylvanians, and the chances are the
democratic text books for next year will
have several chapters on the hero of
Santiago bay" Having "slipped up on
Dewey the democracy does not intend to
let Schley get away from it.
Daily inter mountain. [volume] (Butte, Mont.) 1881-1901, 1899-06-15
DEBATE SHUT orr.

After charging upon the propriety Of
free speech concerning the war in the
Philippines, the democratic press has
reached a point where it insists hat the
line should be drawn. The Helena Inde-
pendent says:
The propriety of discussing democratic
candidates and platform for 1900 is con-
fined to those who supported the demo-
cratic candidates and platform in 1896,
or who intend to support the candidates
and platform next election.

port the democratic candidates and plat
form in 1896, and those who are not will
ing to be good and pledge themselves in
advance to support the candidates and
rla torn of that party in 1900. will please
keep hands off. A thing that cannot be
done with propriety should not be done at
all by s~elf-respecting citizens, and as the
discussion of prospective democratic cam
didates and prospective democratic plat
forms is confined to the truly faithful,
persons Of republican tendencies must
hereafter keep still.
