HILL is FOR GOLD STANDARD
Other Party Leaders, However, Are
Favorine Reaffirmation of Kansas
City Plank on the Financial Issue
Trust Plank That Will Hit the
Trusts Without Them knowing Y
Wanted.

Saratoga, Sept. 29.-Arrival of former
Senator Hill, Chairman Frank Camp
bell of the state committee. William
Sulzer, senator McCarren and other
leaders today gave rise to discussion
over the probable and proposed planks
in the platform to be adopted at the
democratic state convention. It is
learned tentative platform has been
agreed upon, but it is said some of it's
planks are causing much discussion.
Some of the leaders are Of the opin-
ion the platform should be brief and
conservative and while arraigning the
republican party should be SO carefully
constructed as not to pledge the dem
ocratic party to policies, If elected, It
could not carry out without danger to
corporations and individuals. One
plank that is testing the capacity OF
leaders in their desire to avoid fric-
ton is the financial plank and already
today there is discussion of 1T. Those
who two years ago We're insistent upon
an endorsement of the Kansas City
and Chicago plank are equally so now
and are insisting that the plank shall
be outspoken, but the other side of the
controversy was led by Senator Hill,
who is urging that as the so-called
Liberal Democracy" of the state has
already filed a certificate of nomination
of an independent state ticket on a
free silver platform, this convention
should declare for the gold standard.
