IOWA DEMOCRATS.
Convention Enlvened by Fight Over
LIQUOR Plank.

Sioux City, Ia, June 27.-Enlivened
In its last hours by spirited contest
over the ''liquor" plank In it's plat
form, the fight on which had been
previously waged for four hours in
the committee on resolutions, the
Democratic state convention was
brought to a close with enthusiastic
cheers fer w. J. Bryan and for the
Iowa state ticket. The so-called liquor
plank, which was adopted by a good
majority, simply atfirms the tradi-
tional policy Of the party with refer
ence to local selfgovernment.
The proceedings also witnessed an
interesting fight between four of the
leading Democratic jurists of the
state for the nomination for judges of
the supreme court. On a roll call
vote by counties d. w. Higbee of
Creston and Judge c. ]. House of
Maquoketa were the winners by sub
stantial majorities. The other candi.
dates were Captain w. III. Jacques of
Ottumwa and Theodore Bradford of
Marshalltown.

WHAT TH[ COP. STANDS For N 1907 |
James A. Edgertons Analysis of the Republican 3
Party's Declaration OF Principles.

Of battle may be, however, 1t is well
to set forth definitely and succinctly
just what the Republican platform
stands for After the preamble, which
IS a necessary evil in all platforms,
dealing with history more or less an
Client and in this case somewhat long,
the platform proper gives in very clear
and definite language certain pledges
and promises for the futurel
AS already stated, the first plank is
for tariff revision, stating that this
will be taken up by special session
of congress Immediately after the in
auguration of the next president. pro-
vided, of course, he is Republican.
The lines of the revision are indicated
only In the most general way. They
will follow the traditional policy of
protection, recognizing the principle
that the tariff should be high enough
to cover the difference between foreign
cost of production and that at home
1t Is indicated that the details are be-
Ing worked out by committees now ex-
amining the schedules The reciproc-
ity provision is mentioned and free
trade with the Philippines advocated

Worlds Longest steel Bridge.

Vancouver, Wash, June 27.-The
steel bridge across the Columbia river
at this place, said to be the longest
steel bridge in the world, is now fully
completed. The bridge was built by
the Spokane, Portland and Seattle
railroad at cost of $2,000,000. 1t is
two miles long, including the APP

DEADLOCK IN WOOL MARKET
Growers Demand Eighteen Cents and
Buyers Offer Only Fifteen.

Miles City, Mont, June 27.-About
100000 pounds of wool has found its
way to the Milwaukee and Northern
Pacific warehouses here. Buyers are
here representing nearly all the big
houses, but hardly a sale is being
made, as the growers have set their
price at IS cents for good clips and
the buyers are offering around Is. 1t
is expected that Miles City will ship
100000 pounds or more this year.

Postal Savings Banks Proposed.

On the currency question the emer-
gency measure passed by the present
congress Is approved, but no definite
promises are made for the future ex-
cept that there will be further legis-
lation along lines worked out by a
commission already appointed and
that the currency will be made more
adaptable and elastic. The most def
mite and startling proposition In the
currency section is that for postal saw
ings banks. Surely the world moves.
If some upstart of prophet had pre-
dicted a few years ago that the Re
publican platform of 1908 would de-
clare for postal savings banks, he
would have been laughed to scorn.
On the trust question the platform
promises amendments to the Sherman
law that will give the general govern
ment greater supervision and control
over interstate corporations and will
compel increased publicity In their af-
fairs, At the same time Ii speaks a
good word for legitimate associations
of business men. farmers and wage
earners.
AS to railroads, the rate law is ap-
proved in a general way; also the ac-
tivity of the administration in prose-
cutting companies guilty of rebates and
Determinations. At the same time an
amendment giving the roads q right to
form traffic agreements Is advocated,
provided such agreements are made
public, are under the control of the in
terstate commerce commission and are
not between naturally competing lines.
On the subject of labor the platform
recounts the many laws passed for
workingmen during the present admin
istration, likewise the executive steps
taken to the same end; the employers
liability law at last made constitu-
tional; safety appliances and protec-
ton to employees; reduced hours Of
train workers and telegraphers; arbi-
tration; compensation for injured gov
ernment employees; child labor law
for the District of Columbia; inquiry
into catastrophes In mines and other
accomplishments. Promises are made
that the party will continue a similar
course in future.

WITH SIMPLE SERVICE
Funeral Of EX.President Cleveland
Takes Place at Princeton
NO EULOGY, SERMON OR SONG
Governors and Other Distinguished
zens and Friends of Deceased.

Princeton, N. j.. June 27.-Without
eulogy, seI1"cn or song, but with the
simple 5uriel service of the Presby-
terif.n chGTch, Grover Cleveland was
buried in Princeton cemetery beside
the ivy covered grave of his daughter
Ruth. Although President Roosevelt
was In attendance, as well as Governor
Fort of New Jersey, Governor Hughes
of New York, Governor Hoke Smith
of Georgia and other distinguished
psrsonages, they did not attend in an
Official capacity but as friends of the
late ex-president.
The last honors paid the dead
statesman were strictly private, bota
at "Westland," the Cleveland resi-.
dencs, and at the cemetery, in COM
pliance with the wishes not only of
Mrs. Cleveland but those of Mr.. Cleve-
land as we'll.
The active pallbearers, who were
chosen by Mrs. Cleveland, were Mayor
George B. Mcclellan Of New York;
Commodore E. G. Benedict; DR.. Rich
ard Watson Glider; DR.. John H. Fin
ley; Professor Paul Van Dyke of
Princeton Graduate seminary; Profes-
scr John Grier Hibben of Princeton
university; Paul Morton, ex-secretary
of the navy; Professor Howard Nc
Clenahan of Princeton university and
Archibald D. Russell, Junius 9. Nor
gan and Bayard Stockton, trustees of
Princeton university.
The streets from "Westland" to the
cemetery were guarded by mounted
troopers and members of the New
Jersey state militia. Intersecting
streets were roped of and no pedes-
trians or vehicles allowed within the
curb lines from the time the process
sion started until it had passed into
the cemetery. The guardsmen were
on duty merely to assist in policing
the city and their presence was con-
sented to by Mrs. Cleveland only on
the ground that it was proper to have
a suitable guard for President Roose-
velt. Mrs. Cleveland had hoped to
avoid anything of military element

"HE most distinctive utteranceS or
the Republican platform outside
of the renewed declaration of
the traditional policies of the
party are the modified restraint of
judicial injunctions, the assurance of
an early revision of the tariff, the
support of the presidents policies on
trusts, railroads and labor, the declara-
tion in favor of postal savings banks
and the demand that natives of Porto
Rico be made citizens of this country.
While these are notable from a po-
litical standpoint, there are several
declarations that have attracted little
notice and that cannot become political
issues for the reason that no one will
oppose them, which may have even a
greater meaning for the future. Among
these may be mentioned public aid to
good roads, the conservation of natural
resources, the pledge for the extension
of free rural mail delivery, the protec-
ton of employees and the start made
toward child labor legislation, the fur
thering Of the worlds peace through
the approval of The Hague proposals,

zona as separate states and the nation

Unquestionably the tariff will be one,

second issue, though the definite atti-
tude of either party in regard to needed
legislation Is not very clear as yet.

gress, but what he will offer instead is

it would seem that the fight must be

The Injunction Plank.

Then comes the plank over which
the real fight Of the convention was
made, that concerning injunctions. AS
adopted this plank Is compromise,
satisfying the radicals of neither side,
but undoubtedly having the approval
of the moderates and OF the great
masses Of the party. Specifically it
does little more than demand legisla-
tion that will more definitely define
the right of the courts to issue injunc-
tons and prevent the issue Of all In
functions given without a hearing, ex-
cept in cases where irreparable dam
age would be caused by delay. Even
with so mild statement 1t is victory
for labor and serves notice that the
day of the injunction In its more fla
grant forms is practically ended in
America.
In relation to the farmers the work
of the agricultural department is de-
servedly commended, promise Is
made to extend free rural delivery,
and word is spoken In behalf of good
country roads at public expense, urg-
ing state aid In their behalf.
The negro Is not overlooked, for not
only is the past work Of the party In
his interest recounted, but the contin-
uance of a like policy Is promised, to-
gether with a rather strong reference
to the Acknowledgement of negroes in
the south.
The continuation of the civil service
Is pledged. but the reference Is brief.
This Is seemingly a law that all public
officials favor and none Of them wants.

sources, preventing waste Of timber,

Positive and Aggressive.

The spirit displayed throughout the
document Is one of construction and
optimism 1t is a platform made by
builders. 1t may not go as far as
many wished that it might, but so far
as 1t does go 1t sounds no negative
note. 1t claims much, promises much
and even boasts much, but shows the
goods. 1t is positive and aggressive,
thoroughly partisan, as is but natural,
but beyond its partisanism characters
tically and wholesomely American.
1t has been remarked of recent years
that the platforms of the two great
parties in their essentials have grown
more and more alike, and one In read
ing the Republican declarations of 1908
cannot but be struck by the fact that
the utterances of the two conventions
must be more than ever alike this year
The Republicans declare for tariff re-
vision, and the Democrats will declare
for tariff revision more emphatically
and more Immediately. The Repub-
icans are for the limitation of injunc-
tions and stronger labor legislation.
The Democrats will necessarily be for
more drastic limitation of injunctions
and stronger labor legislation. The
Republicans are for the regulation
of railroads and of trusts. The Dem
ocrats can only be for more strin-
gent regulation of both, perhaps not
bearing down so much on the national
pedal and more on that Of the state.
Neither can the Democrats make an is
sue against postal savings banks, con-
servation of natural resources, aid of
good roads, the building of the Panama
canal, but can only go their friends the
enemy one better. Where, then, will
be the issue?
1t is fact more and more apparent
as the years go by that In the great
mass of governmental actions, whether
legislative, executive or judicial, there
is no politics. On most of the ques-
tions that come before congress there
is no division or at least no division on
party lines. The same is true even of
the platforms that the parties put be-
fore the people. On most of the cues
tions advanced there is no issue. What
are the lines on which the coming cam
paign will be fought? What are the
declarations in the Republican plat
form that will form the battle-ground?
