Ex-Governor stone Says 1t Is n Fixed
Democratic Principle.

ST. LOUIS, June 2S.-Ex-Governor Will
liam j. Stone, national committeeman from
Missouri and vice chairman of the Demo-
cratic national committee. in an interview
to-day said: 81 have rot discussed the
platform or any of its provisions with
prominent leaders Of the party and do not
know their views, but so far as the silver
question is concerned / do not think it is
important whether the platform contains
a general reaffirmation of the Chicago plat
form or whether ii contains repetition Of
that platform. The free coinage of silver
has been fixed as a Democratic principle.
1t was so established by the fight which
eliminated at Chicago in 1896 1t was a
real issue then and 1t became a cardinal
Democratic doctrine. Now / see no reason
why we should specifically repeat the free
coinage plank of the Chicago platform in
order to prove to the country that we still
adhere to it. Three planks in the Chicago
platform were specially criticised by our
enemies. They are the free silver, income
tax and government by injunction declara-
tions. OF these, of course, the silver plank
was the most important. Now suppose the
party at Kansas City adopts resolution
to this effect: We indorse and reaffirm in
whole and in part the platform Of our party
adopted at Chicago in 1885,

ANTITRUST LAW.
Decision Of the Supreme Court
Sustaining It-lmpOrtant
Local Option Ruling.

Columbus, Feb. 5.-The syllabus in
the quo warranto cases brought by Hon.
f. S. Monnett, as attorney general,
against the Standard Oil Co., the Buck
eye pipe line and other corporations
charged with being in the Standard Oil
trust, has been handed down by the su-
preme court. The cases involve the
constitutionality of the Valentine anti
trust law, which the court sustains in
the following:
1.-THE act entitled An act to define
trusts etc, 9S o. L., page 143, in so far
as it forbids independent corporations
to enter into combinations to restrict
competition in trade with view to ex-
acting from consumers higher prices
than would prevail under the condi-
tions OF open competition, is an exercise
of legislative power not repugnant to
any limitation prescribed by either the
state or federal constitution.
"Demurrers sustained"
Another important ruling is made on
the sale of original packages in the case
of Emil Stevens against the state, error

from Jefferson county. The syllabus
follows:
"The sale Of beer as a beverage in any
quantity, whether by the manufacturer
or not is prohibited in a township
where the people have Gvailed them
selves of the provisions of the local op-
ton law, passed March 3, 1888 (S5 laws
55), and being a police regulation, a
sale of an unbroken package made In
such township by an agent of a manu-
facturer, located in another state, is
not protected from the operation of the
law on the ground that 1t interferes
with interstate commerce, such police
power being conferred on the states by
an act of congress adopted August 2,
1890, known as the Wilson act (26 stat.
313)
"The fact that the provision in the
local option law, restricting the sale of
wine to such as Is manufactured from
the pure Juice of grape cultivated in
this state, may be invalid as a discrim-
ination in favor of domestic wines,
does not affect the provisions of the
statute as a whole; the other provisions
being open to no such objection are
valid.
