THE STATES DEMOCRACY,

Very judiciously the manager
of the present Democratic cam
paign in this State have promul
gated an admissible platform TO
the consideration of voters
which we publish elsewhere in to-
days issue. We say judiciousl,
because of the insincere and un.
called for action of the Republican
plagiarism of the principles con.
tended for by the Jastremski fac.
ton OF the Democracy, which
plagiarism by a party of unsavory
past record is intended for nc
other purpose than to attract to
their fold those who failed of sue
cess in the late Democratic prim-
airy.
The platform of the party de-
clares for white supremacy, which
10 supported by past administra-
tons, and in the continuance Of
which there is every assurance
which is not the case with the same
declaration from Republican
sources. It also declares for a
primary election law by the next
Legislature, which will guarantee
to every voter the right to freely
express his choice Of candidates
at the ballot box. This having
been one OF the main issues fought
out in the recent Democratic party.
We consider the party's pledge to
enact such a law of paramount
Importance and wisdom, as it
will &c q long way towards remov-
ing differences nowexisting am ng
Democrats. x
It is true that primaries have
been found expensive and not
wholly satisfactory in some GER
tain details, also that in some
quarters they have been the means
OF allowing voters of other parties
to participate in Democratic nom.
but in framing the law
the next Legislature can be safely |
relied on to apply the pruning
knife to these defects and to enact
q law that will prove as near sat-
isfactory as possible to the party
In general.
On the question of reducing the
basis of taxation, which has
arisen from the increa sed revenues
consequent upon our general de-
Velopment, the party in power
pledges itself to a careful study of
he matter and to afford the people
Ie much relief as will be possible
Without impairing the credit of the !
State and the efficiency of the

The Real Weakness of Russia

In consequence of the frequent n
terrible famines throughout Russia
during late years the poor people suf-
fered terribly from insufficiency OF
food. Then the secret OF R~ussia's
weakness is found in it's ill-fed popula-
ton. Good food is essential to health
and strength, and wen in our own
country there are thousands Of per-
sons starving themselves because they
are afaraid to eat-afraid of the pain
and distress that always follows. If
these persons would only lake Hos
letters Stomach Bitters they would
soon notice a &. eat improvement. 1t Is
he best medicine in the wo Id for a
weak stomach and cures dyspepsia, in
digestion, constipation, heartburn,
belching, cramps diarrhoea, insomnia
and liver troubles. We hope every
sick man and woman will try it at
once and see for themselves.

WILL OUR COMMiSSiO Frs ACT

The county commissioners have an
opportunity to endear themselves to
the citizens, not only of Winnemucca,
but the surrounding country. by at
once providing for the erection of a
first-class bridge acros the river at
the north end of the town.
This bridge is not only the worst
structure of its kind in the county, but
is a menace to life daily. This fact
came near being verified Sunday after
moor when a large funeral cortege was
on It's way to the cemetery. A team
became frightened and only by super
human strength on the part of he
driver. was a serious accident averted.
The brige itself is not only too mar
row for the heavy traffic. but no pro-
lection whatever is made for pedes-
TRANS. Even If the commissioners
cannot give us a new substantial
bridge, they can at least build a sep
arate foot bridge for pedestrians who
are continuously crossing, en- route to
and from the cemetery.

THE CLtVELAND BOOM

Cleveland seems to be coming more
TO the front at st. Lou within the
past day or two. No doub in some
sections of the country he would be
the strongest candidate the Democrats
could put up. He could probably COM
mand a bigger campaign fund than
any other. Wall street would prefer
him and would put up a great deal
Of cash to elect him.
His candidacy would eliminate the
money question and make the issue on
the tariff and expansion. His record in
connection with the abortive attempt
to annex Hawaii would make him
persona grata with the anti-expansion-
lists. Perhaps Parker would take a
like position, but he is al unknown
quantity while Cleveland is a known
one.
On the other hand Cleveland would
be received with the most profound
disgust by the Bryan Democracy. 1t
is quite possible that his nomination
would result In a bolt of that element.
At best 1t would give him grudging
support.

provided that the government should
purchase silver to the amount of 4,000,-
900 ounces a month. buying 1t at mar
therefore treasury notes which should
circulate as currency. 1t was further
rovided that this bullion should be
deposited in the treasury and that
whenever 1t was coined into dollars
an amount of those treasury notes
equal to the cost of the bullion con-
tanned in such coin should be cancelled
and not reissued.
It Yves an lid rect way of making a
market for silver and Of turning into
current money, without the slightest
regard for the varying needs of BUSH
enss. The result was that 1t came
very near sending our silver dollars to
a discount, or putting a premium on
gold, which would amount to the same
thing, and Of so still further compli-
eating the dangerous monetary situa-
ton.
One white mark must be scored to
the credit of Grover Cleveland, that he
procured the repeal of the Sherman
act during the first year of his second
term. He was dizzy on tariff, but
sound on money.
Since then the minis hav been grad
ually coming that bullion into stan
dollars, most of which are in cir
culation in the shape of silver certifi-
Gates, until now the end has come.
It leaves us with about $50, 000, 900 silver
dollars, worth about SOC on the dollar,
commercial value. but which are main
tanned at par as coinage by COVE n
ment support.
On the LIST of June III total stock
of money was 50, 1856, 300, 7S9, of which
s1,S13, 12O, SOS was gold, and the remain
der made up of standard dollars,
greenbacks, national bank notes and
subsidiary DIN. The silver dollars rep
resent but a little over one-fifth of
the Who volume of currency. The
ly in their supported status, so tn
they a.e no longer a danger. :. LAY
be that some time in the future they
be made subsidiary by limiting
their legal tender character and pro
viding for their redemption in gold
when demanded in sums of $1,000 or
multiples thereof. But that is a mat
ter which will take care of itself in
future adjustments of our monetary
system.
So by the completion of the coinage
of this bullion we have got rid of one
of our many TO. ms of currency, the
Sherman note. The people of the
States have been learning a
great deal about the money question
the last qua ter century. In a
distant future it is probable that
agreeing to the establishment of a
scientific, business like system of
money and banking. The adoption of
the gold standard is one step In that
The substitution of up-to-
date banking and bank currency In
lieu of greenbacks and national bank
notes, with their inability to ad ust
the volume of money to the requ re-
n1ents of business. will be the next.
When that will happen no one can
but we shall not always perpet-
late the makeshift system fastened
the country as a wal measure
forty years ago.
