A POSSIBLE PLATFORM.
One Submitted by Van Wyck Meets
with Approval.

KANSAS CITY, MO. July 2-Judse
Augustus Van Wyck, of New York. has
a draft of a platform which has been sub
mitted to the Southern delegates and IS
said to have met with some favor from
them The document reatIiruls the Chicago
platform and practically confines Itself TO
three questions-truSts Imperialism anu
the tariff. 1t says:
In reaffirmtng the principles declared in
the platform adopted four years 2so we
recognize the new questions that have
arisen in the meantime, and are not TO
be understood as turning our faces from
the problems that now most urgently con-
front the country to those which, though
rightly emphasized by the Chicago con
venti0n. have been for the present some
what shorn of their urgency by the course
OF recent events.
when the very life of free institutions
is at stake we think it incumbent upon
ali patriots TO waive their lesser differences
to the end that their united strength may
be eXerted against the common enemy.
AS to trusts the platform declares that:
I'm the nation. in the several States and
in every municipality. the Democracy
through all its organizations. will wage
uuremitting war for the stamping OUT OF
the conspiracies to re-estabiish under the
forms OF trade the power of the few to rule
and rob the many. If the laws already

With reference to Imperialism there is

un-Amerfcan spirit which would identity
our flag with tyranny, repudtatEnS the
rrfncirgfes upon which the republic was
founded and commit Us to the itbaorrsnt
task of sitting vita the bayOnet the

and these the Democratic party viii, with
out violating any principle. either OF our

rights of other. people, not hesitate TO take:
but we protest against the monsrrouS pre-
tense that in order to secure the OBJECTS
