Morning appeal. [volume] (Carson City, Nev.) 1877-1906, 1900-10-27
pEN HCRATIC STATE PLAT FORM

We hail with satisfaction the nomina-
ton of William Jennings Bryan and
Adiai r. Stevenson for the Presidency
and Nice-Presidenry of the United States
by the action Of the Democratic. Silver
Republican, ~ !'"Dulist parties of the
United States.
We rejoice that The new Democracy of
1897. which was the old Democracy of
Jeffers oli and Is loosely allied in faith
and purpose to the Republicanism of
Lincoln. has again been re-asserted 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 olga nizatian, as of ur-
! pose is the deman.: 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 attainahle in the line of reform, and
should satisfy the reasonable exrecta-
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 one political organization OF
all the parties now enlisted under his
leadership.

in boldness and intensity since the de

Silver Question-We hold that the Sill

never be permanently settled until on
