THE PLATFORM.
1--WE, the democratic party of the city
Of Anaconda, in convention assembled,
do hereby declare our unalterab.e al
egiance to that great declaration Of
principles and human rights enunc;ated
| in the democratic party platform adopt
"a at Kansas City in July, 1900.
I'VE indorse the leadership of that
| patriotic statesman and intellectual
giant. William Jennings Bryan, and we
believe with him. with ex-President Hair
rison and all other American statesmen
| and patriots that the constitution of the
| United States follows the flag and that
| the present republican president and con-
authority outside of the constitution and
| we believe their present at ,empt to do SO
| in the Philippine islands is a departure
from American principles. traditions
! and ideas and is not only dangerous to
| the principles of liberty but a disruption
| of power exercised by despots and ty-
| rants ony
I'VE believe the policy of the present
republican administration toward the
Flipinos in raising and sending large
army tn re to Slaughter and murder
an unoffending people at the expense
of the American taxpayers is not only
| anti-American but inhuman and bar
| barous.
1--WE condemn the cant, pretence annd
| hypocrisy of the republican party in
| claiming to be the friend of American
workingmen and we charge that they
owe their success to, and are the spe-
cial guardians and champions Of, the
unlawful combinations of capital known
as trusts which are the scrushers of
| labor.
I'VE pledge to the people of the city
of Anaconda that if intTusted with
power the nominees of this convention
will continue the wise, efficient and
| economical administration of the past
two years; that they will enforce the
laws without fear or favor and with
equal and exact justice toward all and
impartia!ity toward none, and we ask
| the support of AL good citizens for
| the nominees of this convention.
| 1T is a matter of especial pride to
every good citizen of Anaconda that the
democratic administra tion of the past
| two years in this city has improved the
streets and pubic thoroughfares, until
| today we have one of the neatest and
cleanest little cities in the west. The
expenditures upon the public streets
have been wisely and judiciously man
| aged.
I'm the matter of public health. our
CT liens are to be congratulated upon
the safeguard thrown around them by
the health department. and the efficient
and impartial manner in which the laws,
given by democratic administration,
have been enforced.
I'VE desire to call particular attention
to the remarkable absence Of crime in
Anaconda, as exemplified by the fact
THAT for weeks at time during the
| last two years not a single complaint
has been made against criminals in
this community. One of the three larg-
est cities in Montana, Anaconda has been
completely purged of the criminal classes
by a string ant and impartial enforcement
of the police laws.

great expense to the city for the safety

1--WE tender to the members of the
Seventh Legislative assembly of Mon
tana our heartfelt gratitude for the

relief of the business element Of this
city as we'll as the enactment of a
law establishing eight hours as a legal
