sonian we re-publish the Doctors platform.
It is hardly necessary to say that this cham
pion of genuine Democracy was showed under
by an opponent who is no more of Jefer-
Sonian Democrat than Alexander Hamilton
himself was.
1. We believe that the Gold Standard is
wrong and that the money question is not
settled until it is settled right.

would greatly shorten the distance
between Sioux City and points on the
coast extension of the Milwaukee road
and thus prove great time saver in
