The Bulletin attempts to draw COM
parison between Cleveland's Venezuelan
message and the democratic pro-Boer
resolutions. If the Bulletin will look
on the map it will find good reason
why this country should interfere in
South America and not in South Afri-
ca. 1t is the very fact that this coun-
try has refrained from mixing in Euro
pean affairs which makes it strong in
the enforcement of the Monroe doctrine.

THE PLATFORM.
by Nebraska Democratic Con-
Vention.

The Democratic State Convention
held at Lincoln. Nebraksa, March 10,
1900, adopted the following platform:
We. the Democrats OF Nebraska. in
convention assumbled do hereby re-
affirm and endorse, in whole and in
part, In letter and in spirit, the plat
form adopted by the Democratic Ma
tional Convention held in Chicago in
1896.
We favor amendments to the federal
constitution, specially authorizing an
income tax and providing for the cleo
ton of United States Senators by n
direct vote of the people.
We oppose government by injunctio
and the black list. and favor arbitration
as means of settling disputes between
corporations and their employees.
We observe with approval the sup
port given by Democrats throughout
the country to the movemen. looking
toward the municipal ownership of
municipal franchises.
We favor the principle OF the initia-
tive and referendum wherever 1t car be
applied.
We are in favor of liberal pensions
to deserving soldiers and to their de-
pendents; we believe that names upon
the pension rolls should not be arbi-
;rarily dropped. and we believe, as
stated in the national platform. that
the fact of enlistment and service
should be deemed conclusive evidence
against disease and disability before
enlistment.
We are in favor of the immediate
construction and fortification of the
Nicaragua canal by the United States.
We condemn the Dingley tariff law as
Il trust-b breeding and Notwithstanding
measure, sllllfully devised for the pur-
pose OF giving to few favors which
they do not deserve and of placing
upon the MANY burdens which they
should not bear
