Against Polygamy.

We demand the determination of
polygamy within the jurisdiction of the
United States. and the complete sep
aration of church and state political
affairs.
Rocky Ford enterprise., 1904-07-15
Condemns Deportation.

The military should be used only to
support and maintain the law. We un-
qunlificdiy condemn its employment for
the summary banishmcnt OF citizens
without trial. or for the control OF
elections.
wc approve the measure which
passed the United States Senate In 1896.
relating to contempt In federal courts.
and providing for trial by jury In cases
OF indirect contempt.
Waterways.
We favor liberal appropriations for
tho care and Improvement Of the water
ways of the country.
We oppose the Republican policy OF
starving home development in order to
feed the freed Of conquest and the np-
petite for national prestige" and dis
play OF strength.
Economy Of Administration.
First-Iarge reductions can easily be
made in the annual expenditures OF the
government without impairing the efii-
cheney OF any branch OF the public ser
vice. and We shall insist upon the
strictest economy and frugality COM
patible with vigorous and efficient civil,
military and naval administration as n
right Of the people. too clear to be de-
MED or withheld.
Second-we favor honesty in the
public service. The enforcement OF
honesty In the public service, and TO
that end a thorough legislative investi-
gntion OF those executive departments
OF the government already known to
teem with corruption, az well rs other
departments suspected of harboring
corruption. and punishment of ascer-
tanned corruptionists without fear or
favor or regard to persons. The per-
sistent and deliberate refusal of both
the Senate and House of Representa-
tives to permit such investigation to be
made demonstrates that only by
change in the executive and In the leg
islative departments can complete eX-
posure, punishment and conviction be
obtained.
Federal Government and Trusts.
We condemn the action of the Re-
publican party in Congress in refusing
to prohibit an executive department
from entering into contracts with con-
yicted trusts or unlawful combinations
in restraint of interstate trade.
Executive .Usurpation.
We favor the nomination and cleo
tion of a President imbued with the
principles Of the constitution, who Will
set his face sternly against executive
usurpation of legislative and judicial
functions, whether that usurpation be
veiled under the guise Of executive
construction of existing laws or wheth-
er it takes refuge in the tyrants plans
Of necessity or superior wisdom.
Imperialism.
We favor the preservation, so far as
,Nfo
commerce in the Orient, without an
unnecessary entanglement in Oriental
and European affairs, and without ar
bitrary, unlimited irresponsible~. and
absolute government anywhere within
our jurisdiction. We oppose fervently
as did George Washington himself. an
indefinite, Irresponsible, discretionary
and vague absolutism and policy of
colonial exploitation, no matter where
or by whom exercised; we believe with
Thomas Jefferson and John Adams,

Turkey Yields to Threats.

Vienna. July ia dispatch from
Constantinople says that American
Minister Leishman handed n note to
the Porte declaring that unless a
prompt settlement Of the school ques-
ton was arranged United States fleet
would appear in Turkish waters. The
Sultan ordered the grand vizier to COM
ply with the American minister's de-
mnnds.
Tho American demands upon the Sui
tan are for privileges to schools and
colleges conducted by American teach
ers equal to those given to foreign
teachers; for permission for American
professional men to practice on even
terms with foreigners. and for the di-
rect access of the American minister to
the Sultan in the transaction of busi-
ness.

Democratic Platform.

Following is the platform as adopted
by the convention:
The Democratic party Of the United
States. In national convention assem-
bicd. declares Its devotion to the essen
tini principles of the Democratic faith
which bring us together In party COM
munion.
Under them. local self-govcrnment
and national unity and prosperity were
alike established. They underlaid our
independence. the structure of our free
republic. and every Democratic exten-
sion from Louisiana to California and
Texas to Oregon. which preserved
faithfully In nll the states the tie be-
tween taxation and representation.
They yet inspire the masses OF our
people. guarding jealousy their rights
and. liberties and chcrishing their fra
ternity. peace and orderly development.
They remind us OF our duties and re-
sponsibilities as citizens and impress
upon us. particularly at this time. the
necessity OF reform and the rescue of
the administration OF government from
the hcadstrong, arbitrary and spas
modic methods which detract business
by uncertainty and pervade the public
mind with dread. distrust and pertur-
baton.
Fundamental Principles.
First-The application Of these fun
damental principles to the living
issues OF the day is the first step
toward the assured peace. safety and
progress of our nation. Freedom of
the press. of conscience and OF
speech-equality.
The law of all citizens: right of
trial by jury: freedom of the person
defended by the writ of habeas corpus;
liberty OF personal contract untram-
meled by sumptuary laws; supremacy
of the civil over the military author
ity; a well disciplined militia; the sep.
aration of church and state; economy
in expenditures: low taxes. that labor
may oe lightly burdened: prompt and
sacred fulfillment of public and private
obligations: fidelity to treaties; peace
and friendship with all nations; en-
tangling alliances with none; absolute
acquiescence in the will of the ma
jority: the vital principles of repub-
lics-these are the doctrines which
Democracy has established as prov
erbs of the nation and they should be
constantly enforced.
Capital and Labor.
We favor enactment and administra-
tlOn OF laws giving ldDOT ana capltal
impartially their Just rights. Capital
and labor ought not to be enemies.
Each is necessary to the other. Each
has its rights; but the rights Of labor
are certainly no less vested" no less
Sacred" and no less 'unalienable"
than the rights of capital.
Constitutional Guaranty.
Constitutional guarantees are violat-
,tt te =
right to labor. acquire and enjoy prop
erty or reside where interest or inclin-
alton may determine. Any denial
thereof by individuals or organizations
of government should be summarily re-
buked and punished.
We deny the right of any executive
to disregard or suspend any constitu-
tional privilege or Limitation. Obedi-
ence to the laws and respect for their
requirements are alike the supp eme
duty of the citizen and the official.
