disorders here.
A big majority was given the cir

Gratis as it was by Republicans.
Just now the tariff plank is giving
the Democrats the most concern. The
Republicans declared for a revision
of the tariff at a special session of
congress Immediately after the open
ing of the next administration. The
Democrats, of course, can do no less.
They want to go much further, but
without reaching the limit of free
trade.
A Conservative Platform.
Bryan was originally free trader.
He was elected TO congress on that
issue, and all his early speeches in
the house Of representatives were
devoted to tariff for revenue only.
After the free silver fight the VIII
son bill, which started out as good
Democratic medicine In the house,
was adu,terated in the senate, and
she fact was made evident that the
Democracy in the east and south had
drifted into the protection camp.
When / talked with Bryan coming
out of the white house after the gov
ernor's conference last month he had
manifestly concluded to take mid
die course on the tariff. The Den
yer platform will accordingly omit
the customary Democratic declara-
ton for tariff for revenue only.
It will denounce the Republican
form of protection as the mother of
the trusts and as creating monopolies,
but there will not be single word
pointing toward free trade.
There will be the usual declara-
tions against trusts, for postal saw
ings banks and a parcels post, and in
favor of restriction of child labor.
The currency legislation of last SEES
sion will be denounced and the issue
of currency only by the government
instead of by banks will be advo-
Gated.
On the whole, the conservatism OF
the Denver platform is promised to
be such that the campaign is likely
to be fought out largely on the per
sonalites of Taft and Bryan.
