MARSHALL DOESN'T
APPROVE TWO PLANKS
Defamation Against Rail-

prises, and Says So.
VIEWS OF INDIANA NOMINEE

Denver. July l0-Thomas r. Mar
shall. the democratic nominee for gov
ernor of Indiana, watched the resolu-
ticns committee closely and when the
committee finished its work there was
a portion of the platform that Mr Mar
shall thinks viii not be satisfactory
Ito the democrats of Indiana. In fact,
la number of Indiana politicians head
ed by Thomas Newkirk. formerly OF
Rushville, endeavored to keep from
the platform the kind of a plank af-
fecting railroads that the committee
adopted.
Said Mr.. Marshall: Il do not object
to the platform as a whole. and be-
lieve that it spea ks the truth I think,
however. it would have been wise to
dIfferentiate between alleged railroad
owners who seek to water stock and
deceive the public. and the legitimate
railroad enterprises of the country
believe the railroads Of Indiana are
legitimate enterprises. and I will noe
recede from my proposal to give them.
their employees and the public each
representation on the state railroad
commission.
The Bank Deposits Plank.
In my judgement the platform
lsNOuId nave declared alone Tor the
guarantee Of bank deposits and not for
that and postal banks as we'll If the
public is assured that its deposits are
safe it is satisfied with the present
banking system. These are problems,
however. which. in my judgment are
not of vital interest as far as the cam
paign in Indiana is concerned and 1t
must be understood that aplatform
must be understood that a platform
must always be the consensus of opin-
len of many men. rather than the ipse
dixit Of the individual citizen. One
thing is sure, the delegates are voting
their sentiments and the party ought
to be satisfied with the results of the
work of the platform committee"
Mr.. Marshall Before the Committee.
Mr. Marshall appeared before the
committee on resolutions early today
and protested against the plank relat-
ing to railroads. He argued in favor
of the anti-injunction plank as printed
in Mondays News. and he also paid
some attention to postal savings banks
and national bank deposits. Mr.. Mar
shall called the committees attention
he said the convention should not fail
to the fact that Indiana Will be Il bat
tleground in the comiSg campaign and
he said the convention should not
fail to take notice of that fact Close
attention was given Mr. MashalTs

Denver. July 1o.-'Tadies and gentle
men OF the convention" said Danie!
f Cohalan OF Tammany. when he arose
to second the nomination for New York

He was the first speaker in the con

oratorical wonders and speIlbinders. to
address the ladies Of the convention
since the gavel of Tom Taggart fel,

Cohalan was right Every other
speaker had been forgetful.
