Democratic State Platform.

We, the democrats of Iowa, in con-
vention assembled, rereby reaffirm the
principles of the democratic national
platform adopted at Kansas City, July
5, 1900, and without surrendering our
convictions or abating our loyalty to
our national policies, we believe this
campaign to be particularly one that
should be confined to state issues.
Resolved, That the fundamental
principle of democracy, equal rights
to all and special privileges to none,'
applies in full force to the subject Of
taxation. The democratic party be-
lieves that the burden of taxation
should be borne equally by all taxable
property. We pledge the members Of
the. general assembly to formulate
and urge the adoption of such law
as will compel the burdens of taxation
to rest on corporate and individual
property alike, without favor or ex-
emption OF any interests.
"We demand economy in the admin
istration OF state affairs, the repeal Of
the mulct law, the enactment of To-
cal option law, the abolition Of offices
OF state printer and state binder, and
the contracting for supplies for the
state with the lowest responsible bid
der.
'sWe cordially invite all honest men
the state to unite with US in Secur.
ng the enactment Of these principles
INTO law.

THE SALOON LIMIT.
Petition Circulating Asking Legisla-
ture to Require New Mulct
Petition Triennially.

A movement has been started by Rev.
R. E. Fhokinger, Presbyterian min
lister in Fonda, to petition the next leg
islature to so amend the mulct law that
saloon petitions will have to be cir
culated every three years In order to
maintain saloons in any county or city.
He is introducing these petitions in
the presbyteries Of his church and de-
sires that other determinations take
similar action. He calls attention to
the fact that at present petition once
circulated and securing the requisite
number of signatures establishes the
saloon in county or city until re.
monstrance secures enough signatures
to drive the saloons out. These re-
monstrances, he DECLARES, are seldom
effective, and he demands that the
saloons be compelled to reestab Ish
their right to exist every three years.

r -.i
railroad property In Iowa srouId De
valued for taxation at $I2,o76 per mile,
but the Republican executive council
have in the face OF these facts valued
the property for taxation at only &,460
per mile.
Supreme Court Deoisicn.
The Republican railroad tools try to
make it appear that the railroad tax
problem is most difficult problem;
that it is almost impossible to deter
mine the real value Of railway property;
that while it is an easy matter to de-
termine the value OF the farmers farm.
his cows and his pigs, when it comes
to the very grave question OF tho value
OF railroad, there are only few in
tellects that are wide enough, long
enough and deep enough, to wrestle
with the problem. In their opinion the
subject requires the employment Of
such ponderous, brains. and such only,
as those possessed by Ten Per Cent
Shaw, Reformer Herriott, Attorney
Cummins, Attorney Hubbard and At
torney Blythe.
But, unfortunately for the Republi-
can railroad schemers, the supreme
court of the United States, the highest
tribunal in the land, has decided time
and again that the problem is a very
simple one. Here is the language of
the supreme court in deciding the
point:
when you have ascertained the cur
rent cash value Of the whole funded
debt and the current cash value OF the
entire number Of shares, you have, by
the action of those who above all 9TH
ers can best estimate it, ascertained the
true value of the road; all its property,
its capital stock and its franchises; for
these are all represented by the value
of its bonded debt and OF the shares
of its capital stock.
And nothing is easier to ascertain
than the market value of railway
stocks and bonds. But, then, we mus,
not forget that for years the conspira-
tors in the executive council of Iowa
haven't been at any time trying to de-
termine the real value of the railway
property in the state; they have been
constantly engaged in the quarrel
among the railroad thieves as to the
division among themselves of the hum
dreds OF thousands of dollars stolen hy
them from the simple, honest, horny
handed taxpayers OF the state.

TO SAVE MISS STONE.
United States Government Bending
Every Energy to Rescue Of Kid
mapped Missionary. So

Washington, Oct. 1.-THE machinery
of the department of state is now at
work to save from death or prolonged
captivity Miss Ellen Stone, the mis-
sionary who was kidnapped in Turkey.
The president himself has become ae-
lively interested in the matter. Satur.
day, DR.. Samuel II. Capen, president Of
the American board of missions, and
Or. Judson Smith, the foreign secre-
tary of that board, arrived in Washing
ton from Boston, and went directly to
the state department. After an hours
conference with Acting Secretary Adee
and Solicitor Pendeld, they were es-
corted to the white house. President
Roosevelt gave close attention to their
statement,
Although the department of state
already had taken up the matter, Pres
ident Roosevelt laid fresh injunotions
upon Mr.. Adee to spare no effort to
accomplish the purpose he had in view
Of releasing Miss Stone. The clergy
men we're highly gratified at the earn
estness exhibited by the president and
the state department officials and left
| for their home in Boston satisfied that
the United States government was do
ing everything possible in Miss stones
behalf. Owing to the peculiar eondi-
tons of this case, none of the parties
to Saturdays conference was at lib
erty to make statement for publica-
ton respecting the measures to be
adopted. Tt is gathered that whatever
may be done in the future in punt
tive way, Miss Stone must be ransomed
to begin with. Probably the ransom
moaey must come from the mission
board or from private contributions,
for the state department has no funds
which may be used to pay the ranso ON.
Boston, Oct 7.-The first mail Sat
urday brought $4,000 toward the res
cue of Miss Stone, the missionary cap,
tured by the bandits, in response tathe
appeal issued by the American board
Friday.
Sofia, Bulgaria, Oct. z. "A semi-of-
fetal denial was issued Saturday of
the statement that the kidnapers of
the American missionary, Miss Helen
H. Stone, and her companion, Nine.
Tsilka, are in Bulgaria. The note is
sued by the authorities declares that
the troops and police who have. active
ly searched the frontier for ten days
have not found any trace of the bril-
gands, who demand that Miss Stones
ransom shall be paid in Turkey.
