nEMocRArIC POLICIES

Verify the Democratic party has grown
to be an organization OF reyoluticnists
and smashers. II was thought that the
organization in New York would bury
the Bryan vagaries forever. Well, ~
happens that It ignored the Kansas
City platform, yet adopted plank that
is more ultra than anything 'Populism
has ever conceived. 1t advocates the
taking Of the anthracite coal mines C;
Pennsylvania by the National Govern
ment. because Of the present unfortu-
nate strike. But IL because anthracite
coal is a necessary commodity, the Gov
ernment must control It, why should
not all the bituminous fields be seized
also? Then when the principle has been
established. we can extend It to other
classes of fuel. like wood, coke and peat
Let the idea be established, and
other necessary commodities will fol-
low. The Government would be asked
to control the markets for meat and
bread. and to do this It would have TO
assume ownership on elevators, trans
portation lines, agricultural machinery
mills and farms. When viewed in the
light OF it's possibilities, the New York
manifesto becomes supremely ridicu-
lious unless we are prepared for com
munism.
Democracy always proposes to reform
with an axe. Because there are trusts
laws should be passed that would sweel
corporations out OF existence. Whel
it is urged that tariff schedules are il
need of adjustment, they would abolisl
all tariff. There being trouble in tn
Philippines, we should abandon the is
lands and run home When there i
stringency in the money market, tn
remedy is to issue unlimited quanuue
Of greenback, or to coin all the silve
, in sight, stamping on its face a false
hood. And upon the appearance
trouble i'm the mines, we have the dos
e trine that they should be conhscate
= That is the brief history Of Democrat
e policies.
