AN ADMIRABLE PLATFORM.

The democratic platform adopted at Galveston is
an admirable expression of party doctrine 1t is CON
seryatve without being in the slightest degree am
biguous apologize.
The principles of the last National platform
indorsed but no effort is made TO revive policies
which are not living issues. The silver question is
lett undsturbed, but the convention went boldly for
ward and met the money issue which is fore
Swallowed in the branch bank and asset currency
bill" which might be aptly termed to promote
a banking trust
The States frendliuess TO capital in legitimate
form is declared, and all lawful corporations well
coined but there is abatement OF hostility to the
commercial monsters of trusts and mergers, The de-
mand for legislation touching riparian rights is a
timely recognition of the growing rice industry and
reflects the partys wachful concern for material ar
fairs and its encouragement Of all efforts toward the
development of the States resources. The same
spirit was manifest in the demand for State aid for
the stricken city of Galveston. Democracy IS ever
jealous of bountes and avors to classes sections
but 1t is unmndfu Of the high duty of govern
ment to protect and uphold It's own. This particular
action is to be commended also encouraging a
liberal Interpretation of the State constitution which,
unlike the Federal constitution is not grant of lin,
tied powers but charter of free action the legis
| lature to do what is nanifestly just and wise.
The convention took advanced ground in educa-
tonal matters and it's instruction to the legislature
10 deal generously with all State institutions ought
mark the beginning of educational in Texas
which will develop here the high civilization which in
all other respects already characterizes the
wealth.
The reference to the administration of Governor
Sayers, especially to the splendid efficiency of the
states eleemosynary institutions deserved rib
ute to faithful executive and proper expression OF
pride in the partys unbemished record
1t is matter of qualification to The Post
! that the platform is constructed along the same
general lines that have been advised in these columns

TWO CENTS
ACCIDENTLY SHOT.
Young Man Shot His Mother
in-law at Montana.

Mrs. Priekett the Wounded Woman
aud MIR. Pratt the One who Shot Her
Delicate Operation Performed By
Drs. Cook and Hill-Pratt Prostrat-
ed with Grief.
FAiRMoNr, Jan. 20. Yesterday af-
ternoon at O'clock young man by
the name of Pratt, residing at Mon
tana, on the +. NJ. Il z. Railroad.
while handling thirty two caliber
revolver carelessly, discharged it.
The bullet went through Pratt left
hand, struck Mrs. Marshall Pickett
his mother-in law, penetrating the
intestines. DIR. Cook of this place,
was called and assisted by DR.. Hill,
of Montana, performed an operation
upon Mrs Pickett. Eleven holes
were found in the small intestines
and eighteen inches of the intestines
removed Two "Murphy Buttons"
were then inserted and the wounds
dressed. The operation is one OF
the most remarkable and difficult
known.
The Murphy Button is a compar
atively new invention and is used in
the following manner. Two ends of
an intestine are brought together
and each half of the button which
is in two pieces, is inserted into the
ends and then the halves screwed
together, COMPRISING the ends OF
the intestine together and between
the parts of the button silver tune
passes through the button, thus per
hitting the passage of food The
tube is fast to one halt of the button
and has threads cut on one end
which when screwed into the other
halt OF the button, holds IL and the
ends OF the intestines together, after
time the portion ofintestine which
is compressed between the button
decays. BY that time, however, the
live parts OF the intestine have
grown together and the decayed
portion being weak, pulls away and
allows the button to pass out OF the
body.
The result is little ring around
the place where the intestines have
grown together As was heretofore
remarked, the operation is a very
difficult and dangerous one and
more especially SO when two buttons
are used as In the case of Mr.. Prick
EFT.
While her condition is critical
she is doing as we'll as could be ex-
pected. The young man is almost
prostracted with grief The opera
ton was very ably carried out by
the doctors and reflects great credit
upon both.
