The Democratic State Platform

The wise men of Colorado that
have been declaring that the Dem
ocra,s never learn anything will
have to revise their opinion after
ed i'm Denver.
A comparison of that Democrat
ic creed with a similar declara ion
of alleged principles. dated Pueblo.
September 8. 1908. shows that the
Colorado Democracy in two years
has indeed learned something.
This is not SO surprising as 1t
might otherwise appear. in view of
the extraordinary Legislative meet
ing, yet in session.
To have adopted again the plat
form of 1908 in its entirety except
for the Hughes endorsement-and
o have renominated Shafroth.
would have been too barefaced
even for the present Democratic
managers.
To have stripped the platform
bare of every promise of progress
and reform, according to the
regular session and the well known
purposes of those that still control
che party organization. would have
been too bold defiance of public
sentiment to risk before election.
II required consummate tact and
skill. coupled wi h large amount
of practical political ability, to
frame a suitable democratic platform
this year; and II must be admitted.
under all the circumstances. that
the task has been surprisingly
well performed.
No one can fairly accuse the Dem
ocracy OF deceiving the people this
year, for the platform utterances
are skillfully framed to promise as
little as possible-and in view OF
what has happened to the platform
OF 1908, IL that of 1910 deceives
anyone, it is that persons fault.
Just why the pla form builders
omitted any reference to some of
the paramount pledges-includinS
u railway law on the lines of the
federal Interstate commerce law.
an anti-pass law and legisla ion for
the municipal ownership of public
utilitfes-remains a secret. but the
pledged endorsement of the other
promises of 1908 is so modified and
diluted that any omissions canno-
be considered of practical import
ance.
The Democratic platform of 1908
was bold promise of definite
things. made to be broken. by men
who held and practiced the rule
that ..alrs fair in war and poll
tics"
The platform of 1910 is weak
er. more guarded. more cowardly
attempt to dodge issues and to
keep from making promises that
may be uncomfortable later on.
The Pueblo platform was witt
ten in vitriol; the Denver platform
reeks of dishwater.
But the Democratic party of Col
orado seems to have learned in the
past two years that Colorado men
and women expect platforms TO
mean something; that they expect
solemn promises made by party
authority to be kept; that lying is
not honorable nor robbery honest
when they are a part II politics.
The people will profit no more
by the Democratic pla form of 1910
than by that of 1908; but the pres
ent promises are not SO wantonly
extravagant and so flagrantly dis
honest as those of two years ago.
And to that extent there is cause
for general sfaction-Pueblo
Chieftain.

The Irrigation congress and ex-

the many requests for literature.
If the people living in this section
of the valley could only realize

GOT THE WRONG MAN

lha last issue Of the Miles City
independent editorially roasts one
Of our elevator men to nice
brown turn. If the case is as
stated in the Independent, the
roast was earned, bat we have our
doubts. The Chronicle man,
practically a stranger here him
self. has always been treated with
the utmost courtesy by the eleva
tor men OF Beach, and is loath to
believe that the Miles City scribe
was turned down flat for merely
asking the name of the elevator
man. and is constrained to think
thai there is another side to the
affair. There are always two
sides TO a board, and almost al
ways two to every story. We can
readily understand how any per-
son. and especially a newspaper
person, can ask questions concern
ing another's business which arc
considered impertinent, and which
would naturally be answered by
the question, What do you want
to know for??'' 1t has happened
to the writer. but he found it
much easier to explain than to
fly into a rage and walk out.
The elevator man business is his
own. just as much as the news
paper mans is his. and we see no
cause for the two columns Of
roast. Ghe Independent has in
one sentence revealed the identity
Of the elevator man man who
has always been courteous to the
last degree, and taken pains to
furnish facts and figures when
ever asked by the writer. 1t is,
therefore. no wonder that we add
salt to the independents state
ment before swallowing it.
