DEMANDS

Here is one plank that should be

tional democratic platform: The
party adheres TO its time
honored principles Of the rights of the
state to regulate It's own domestic
affairs aad TO enforce it's own police
powers as true construction OF the
federal constitution, and laws govern
ing interstate commerce should not
hamper nor hinder the right OF the
state Ia the exercise OF ITS propei
functions OF police power, whether that
power extends TO the prohibition OF
the liquor traffic, the regulation OF
freight and passenger traihc or the
importation Of convict labor.
"The platform should be clear and
explicit upon every proposition, writ
ten with q view OF giving the public
% understand what the party stands
for, without an effort OF makeshift or
deception. This is undoubtedly im-
portant at this time because OF sew
