principles, and invite the cooperation
Of all who agree herewith:
We declare that the principles enun-
eiated in The Declaration Of American
Independence are those of eternal
truth, and inexorable justice in their
application to government among men
We submit that the historic words OF
Washington in his farewell address,
are the words OF an enlightened wisdom,
flowing from that immortal mans in
spired conception OF truth and justice.
We point TO the words Of sIeiIerson as
those OF exalted American statesman
ship. We hold in deep reverence the
grand phiantrophy and the splendid
patriotism Of Abraham Lincoln, that
great interpreter OF our national his
tory, and the world.recognized apostle
Of human liberty aud industrial free
dom, and We solemnly declare our firm
adherence, as maintained by that con

/ TO give to America its declaration Of
monetary independence remains unal.
terablf loyal to the principles involved
principles which have been incOrpor-
ated into every Republican national
platform from 1873 To 1886. We en-
phatically condemn that Republican
President and that Republican Con
grass who, at the evident bohest OF
corrupt power, have deliberately and
"a face OF their party declaration that
bi-metalism IS "a desirea0le thing pas
sed a currency bin regulating the doe
trine Of bimetallism. and in all practi-
cal ways Harvesting the gold standard
upon the American people. We real
firm our supreme faith ia the justice OF
bimetaiiism TO tie masses Of the Amer
Jean people. aud We declare oar unfal-
tering confidence In the ultimate vic
tory OF a cause. which has for It's cham
pion a man who declared that he would

The Tfasts-We declare unceasine
warfare upon trusts, and upon all un-

every endeayor to force upon any peo-
pie those unrighteous conditions against
which the Revolutionary Fathers con-
tended with their LIES blood.
Public Grazing Lands-In line with
our opposition 10 any control of public
utilities by private citizens or combin-
( atoms OF capital, we here declare our
emphatic dissent from any proposal to

CATION purposes-and we recommend
such Federal and State legislation as
I will bring about the reclamation of all
