Morning appeal. [volume] (Carson City, Nev.) 1877-1906, 1900-11-06
STATE PLATFORM

We hail with satisfaction the nomina
ton Of William Jennings Bryan and
Adla F.. Stevenson for the Presidency
and Vice-Presidency Of the United States
l,y the action ct the Democratic. Silver
Republican, and Populist parties of the !
United States.
We rejoice that the new Democracy of
1897, which was the old Democracy Of
jefferson. and is closely allied in faith /
and purpose to the Republicanism of
Lincoln. has again been re-assertea in |
1900, and that it is receiving the united
support of the reform forces. We de-
clare our belief that no reason now ex-
lists for the division Of the reform forces
into three Independent organizations.
and that unity of organization, as of pur-
pose is the demand of the hour.
We believe that the Chicago and Kan
sas City platforms cover all that is need
ed in the enforcement Of our traditional
principles Of government and all that is
now attainable in the line of reform, and
rions Of all reformers and lovers of their
country; that the pure and exalted char
! acter. the marked ability and high pa
triotism of William jennings Bryan, fill
every requirement Of leadership, and
| that patriotic duty demands the perfect
/ union into ono political organization of
all the parties now enlisted under his
I leadership.
j National Platform We endorse the
i platform of the National Democratic
, party. adopted at Kansas City, and pledge
our support to all IT'S declarations, and
particularly those relating to the silver
and monetary question, and also imp"-
rialism and the trust. the natural off
! spring Of the plutocratic policy of the
! Republican party. which has increased
in holiness and intensity since the de-
nometization of silver in 1879, until now,
in 1900, it has practically substituted for
the Declaration Of Independent the
methods of imperialism IN the Admins
tratien Of our national government.
Silver Question-we hold that the Sill.
yer question is still one of the I'M e,ortan,
issues of this campaign, and that il will
never be permanently settled until on,
ed coinage of geld and silver at the ratio
of sixteen to enc, regardless Of the con
sent of other nations. We congratulate
the supporters of Bryan and Stevenson
l., Nevada that they are net subjected t,
the h1miliating necessity Of abrogatini
platform for tho accom- N odation Of thei
! congressional nominee, The platform a
adopted at Kansas City, is broad enough
for our National and State candidate.
and contains not word the elimination
Of whirh would ID an iota of strength
, to tic local nominees.
