DEMOCRATIC PLATFORM.

Inc democratic party of Iowa In con
vention assembled declares it's adher
ence and devotion to the fundamental
principles of the democratic faith
tersely asserted in the words: Enual
rights to all and special privileges to
none.
We believe in tariff for revenue
only, anu in approaching to that condi
ZION or our revenue laws there should
be immediate relief granted to the peo
pie who are now being robbed by ex.
tortionate prices exacted under the
shelter Of the tariff. We believe that
the people of this country who produce
our wealth and pay our taxes and fight
the battles of the republic are en-.
titled to purchase goods manufactured
in this country as cheaply as the peo.
pie who reside abroad. We denounce
the extortion inflicted upon our peo.
pie under the pretense of protection
as an outrage upon the consumer and
upon the poor and upon the laborine
people who produce the wealth of this
country. We believe the tariff should
be removed from all trust made goods
and In the removal of all duties on
iron, steel, lumber and coal.
We demand the enactment of such
legislation as will effectually destroy
all trusts and the strict enforcement
of all laws concerning the same, and
we denounce the executive of the state
OF Iowa for failure to enforce existing
laws.
That we are In favor of such rail.
road rate regulation in the state of
Iowa as will give equivalent rates and
service to that afforded by the inter
state commerce act and that we are
opposed to the present legislation in
force, discriminating as it does against
local Iowa Industries, and declare in
favor of such legislation as will give
competition to all competitive points
in Iowa with through billing anywhere
in the state. We demand that our next
legislature enact two-cent passenger
fare on railroads.
We are in favor of primary law
giving to the people the selection as
well as the election of all candidates
from senator down, SO drawn as to
protect minority and all parties.
We favor the election of United
States senator's by direct vote of the
people.
We are in favor of absolute and I'M
qualified government control of inter
state commerce.
We favor the enactment of such

HAMILToN,s SPEECH,

Probably the most prominent thine
in the speech of D. W. Hamilton, tenn
porary chairman of the democratic
state convention, yesterday, was the
bid for republican votes. 1t was made
plain from beginning to end that this
was to be the keynote of a campaign
the chief object of which will be to
prevent the cementing of the bonds ot
the republicans; that an unprecedent.
ed effort will be made to keep open
the old sores, not of one faction, but
of both, in the republican party.
He first bids for the support of the
opponents of Mr. Cummins by showing
alleged inconsistencies of speech and
action and then he asks Cummins to
turn in and help defeat the republican
congressman, telling him that if he
does not it will be taken that he has
used democratic campaign material
merely for advertising purposes. He
thus hits the republican candidates
both ways.
Governor Cummins will doubtless re.
sent iris sort of a combined attack and
appeal and spurn the effort of the dem
ocratic aid to defeat the republican
congressman, whom he realizes must
be returned to Washington if the will
OF Theodore Roosevelt, the man he ad-
mires as his leader, is to be carried
out.
Outside of this particular feature
there was nothing extraordinary in the
address of Mr.. Hamilton as a demo-
cratic speech, All of the graft that
has been unearthed in the United
States, municipal, state, or national,
of industries, protected or unprotect-
connection is not made direct in all OF
them, but he carries the thread from
the graft to the captains of industry
and from them ~ the protective tariff
laws.
1t is also noticeable that so far as
anyone knows by reading his speech
the sentence "In the beginning God
created, etc. applies to 1896. There is
nothing to indicate that there was any
thing doing in the United States dur
ing the ten years previous to that
time, as he dates everything from that
year. 1t is true there was not very
much doing during the four years pre-
vious, and it is probable that he
thought that period hardly worth men
tioning. All of the graft, so far as he
Indicated, has taken place since 1896.
The "damnable' bargain between the
republican party and the corporations
was made in 1896. The republican
party made the final deal of the ex-
change Of its birthright for mess of
pottage in 1896. "The spirit Of greed
and utter disregard for honesty that
has grown up in this country has been
since 1896. But there are
those who can remember back little
farther than that. They can remember
when the spirit of greed was not so
much for the dollar as it was for Sec

DEMOCRATS HOLD
 3rd WARD CAUCUS Go on Record for Straight Ticket Select Their
 Alderman

Third Ward Democrats want no affil- iaton with any other party in the nomination of a city ticket in the con Yention to be held next Saturday morning in the Opera House.
 At caucus of the Third Ward dele gates 10 this convention, held Mon day evening. every one of those pres eat went squarely on record as be ing against the suggestion that a Cit izens' ticket be nominated for the com ing election.
 According to the sentiment express ed. the Democrats of this city have no need Of afhliating with any other organization in order to win all the city officials al the polls and to seat every Democratic candidate for the Council.
 To preserve party identity and pre- 'eDt alliances that may at some fu- ture time prove a drawback or hin dTance, the Democrats Of the Third Ward are unequivocally against any fusion with other parties and the joint nomination Ot a city ticket.
 During Monday nights caucus it vas agreed that the Democratic can didates for the City Council from that section of the city shall be James Let son and Robert Hennessy. Letscn will not be strange to the City Coun- ciI. He was a member of the first iB this city. serving with such we'll known citizens as Pete Johnson and L. c. Shzttuck.
 5ennessy is now a heavy property holder. and has built for himself solid reputation during his residence in the ,city. With Letson and Hen messy on their ticket. the Democrats of the Third Ward figure that they can be assured of two members of the Council.
 The caucus endorsed ]. M. O'Con- nell for Mayor, Hank Snodgrass for Marshal Gregg Summers for City Clerk and P. J Mccullough for Street Superintendent. all of whom they will support in the convention.
 II is not yet known what will be done in the Second Ward, but in the First Ward, L. c. Shattuck and John Hogan are the probable nominees. Hogan is now serving as Councilman from his ward. and Shattuck was a member Of the first City Council in Bisbee.

INCORRl6IBLf BOY
 BACK ID LOWELL Probate Judge Will Give Father Chance To
 Take Him

Instead of spending last night in the reform school of Benson, 10 which in- stitution he was committed by Justice Hogan of Lowell, Roy Burch. an incor- riSiDle youth, was returned to Lowell yesterday under orders of Probate Judge Goodbody of Tombstone. Upon a complaint made by the boys mother. Mrs. E. A. Pope, who alleged that she could do nothing with him, Justice Hogan sent him before Judge Goodbody in charge of Constable Rumm on Monday
 Goodbody refused to commit the boz to the reform school on the ground that the complaining witness had not appeared before him to give her testi. mony, and further on the statement made by the boy that if his father. who resides at Chico, Cal. is communi- cated with, he will provide for his care.
 Judge Goodbody decided that the best course is to take the matter up with the father. If he does not care to act, the boy will be examined and regularly committed to the asylum, where iI is said he rightfully belongs
 Young Burch refuses to attend school. will pay no attention to the commands of his stepmother and in many other ways is rather hard boy to manage for one only 14 years of age.

SAVAGE TRIAL IN
 MORALES IN APRIL
About Forty Witnesses Will be Taken Prom
 This City

Attorney Tom Bennett has. received information from Associate Justice Fletcher NJ. Doan to the effect that the trial of Mrs. Kate Sauvage and her son, Amos Stone, for the killing of Henry Sauvage in Bisbee on Decem- Der 1, last. will take place in Nogales during the second week in April.
 To about forty Bisbee people this means that they must take a trip in April to Nogales, there to give testi- mony for the defense or prosecution in Mrs. Sauvage's case and that of her son. It is possible that the number will be greater than that by the time all the subpoenas are served.
 Mrs. Sauvage and Stone are now in Tucson, the former under a 5000 bond and the latter under 8 ,000. Be fore coming Uo Bisbee they resided in that city. Sauyage and the wife who killed him were running a laundry here at the time she shot him down as he was approaching his home.
 The filing for probate recently in Tombstone of Sauvage's will discloses the fact that about year previous to the time Sauvage met his death he must have been on excellent terms with his wife. when they had wills drawn up and signed, each willing to the other the property in their name
 W. E. Stone. brother of the young man charged jointly with his mother with Sauvage's death. has been ap- pointed administrator of the deceas- eds estate. with the will annexed. His bond has been fixed in the sum of $500. which was yesterday forwarded to Tombstone to be approved by Pro- bate Judge Goodbody.
 Sauvage was not possessed of any considerable amount of property. but that il must go to the woman who killed him and is now about to be tried for the offense. is a strange freak of fate. and makes the decision of the couple to sign wills, each giving to the other what they possessed, the forerUnner Of an event that neither could have anticipated a. the time,
 Mrs. Sauvage and her son are to be tried in Nogales as the result of change of venue that was granted by Judge Doan, who ordered the case moved from Cochise county to Nogaies on the grounds that local prejudice would not permit the defendants to get fair and impartial trial.
