St Louis, July 9.-Thc committee
on resolutions spent all of Thursday
night on the platform and at $50 con
sidered the last resolution of the draft
submitted by the committee. But
this did not mean that the platform
was finished and ready for the CON
vention.
During the long night in the com
mittee room there were many dra-
matte scenes, not the least striking
of which was the verbal encounter
between Senator Hill and Mr.. Bryan.
At 4:40 in the morning the commit
tee on resolutions voted the gold
standard plank out of the platform
by a vote of 35 to Is. This was the
third victory for William j. Bryan
committee. He had made two sue
cessful efforts early in the evening
and secured notifications of the
tariff plank on two separate votes.
The Carmack suggestion for a
financial plank was voted down and
the platform was adopted without a
financial plank.
Mr.. Hill presented a substitute for
the trust plank, which was unanf-
mously accepted. The compromise
antitrust plank offered by Mr.. Hill
and adopted provides that whenever
trust or combination effects a monop-
oily in the production or distribution
of any articles of trade outside
the state of it's origin, it may
be restricted by appropriate legisla-
tion from continuing to 40 business III
such states.
The trust matter disposed of, the
race question was taken up and q
plank deploring injection of this issue
into the campaign by the Chicago
convention was adopted
The national convention spent the
morning hours Friday in waiting for
the report of the committee on reso-
lutions. A committee was appointed
by Chairman Champ Clark to call on
the resolutions committee and learn
when the platform would be submit
ted to the convention. Just before
the noon hour the conventions ennis
saries announced that the resolutions
committee would require until s D. m.
to prepare it's report, but that the
action of the committee would be
unanimous.

The Isthmian Canal.
Our party having long advocated
the construction of an inter oceanic
canal for the purpose of national de
fense and commerce between the
states and with foreign nations, we
favor the early completion of the 18TH
mian canal.
But while making this declaration
and accepting the results as an &C
complished fact, we cannot too fore
IDLY express our disapproval of the
methods by which, in disregard of the
usages and obligations of information
al law and treaty obligations, the
canal route has been acquired, or too
solemnly record our hope that this
precedent of defiant diplomacy may
never be used against us to our
humiliation and injury.
Monroe Doctrine.
We favor the maintenance of the
Monroe doctrine in its full integrity.
We favor liberal trade treaty with
Canada.
Imperialism.
We favor the preservation insofar
as we can of an open door for the
worlds commerce in the Orient with
out unnecessary ENHANCEMENT in Ori-
entail and European affairs, and with
out arbitrary, unlimited, irrespOnsi-
bic and absolute government any
where within our jurisdiction. We
oppose, as fervently as did George
Washington himself an indefinite, ir-
responsible, discretionary and vague
absolutism and a policy of colonial
exploitation, no matter where or by
whom invoked or exercised we be
lieve with Thomas Jefferson and John
Adams that no government has a
right to make one set of laws for
those "at home" and another and a
different set of laws, absolute in
their character, for those "in the colo
nies."
We insist that we ought to do for
the Filipinos what we have already
done for the Cubans. And it is our in
tent, as soon as il can be done wisely
and safely for the Filipinos them
selves, and after amicable arrange
ments with them concerning naval sta
tions, coaling stations and trade re-
lations and upon suitable guarantees
