The DEMOCRATS
TALK PLATFORM
INITIATIVE, REFERENDUM AND
RECALL PROPOSITION MAY
COME UP At soTTUMWA.

Des Moines, July 1S.--Among Des
Moines democrats tnere is consider.
able talk of injecting a plank in the
state platform favoring the enactment
OF an initiative referendum and recall
urged in Illinois.
The plan is to have law working
along the same plans as the refern-
dunn. initiative and recall provision in
the Des Moines plan, with che eX-
certion that the per cent of signatures
OF citizens required should be changed
to some extent,
IN the Opinion of local democrats
it should take abodt 80 per cent Of the
voters to recall state officer. while
8 to T. Per cen! should he required to
put the referendum and initiative pro-
visions into operation.
While the local democrats have not
all been sounded on the proposition
and It is not being generally discussed
over the state 1t is believed that the
proposal to insert recall plank in the
platform will not be opposed.
BY reason Of the fact that the demo-
Gratis will not be able to read the re-
publican state platform this year be-
fore making their own and accord
ingly, will not be able to view with
alarm the actions of the republicans,
there is considerable interest as to
what the democrats will put in their
platform.
The tariff will be touched upon. it
is certain, and almost as surely the
cost OF management of the govern
ment will be a-sailed as excessive and
unwarranted.
Many democrats are for making the
state platform CONSPICUOUS by it's small
ness and are for platform OF about
ten lines, instead of several type
written pages as is usually the case.

Well Done, "Rufe".

MANY old friends hereabouts will be
greatly pleased to hear of the success OF
Rufus j. Clifford, of Hambleton, w.
Va, formerly of Island Pond. He has
been elected a member of the House of
Delegates. The Tucker Democrat in
announcing his election says it gives
general satisfaction among the people,
and refers to Mr.. Clifford as a man of
firm character, who at once impresses
one with the highest respect, and whose
presence in the Legislature will give
Tucker county standing she has not
had for years. The Democrat thus con-
cludes it article "Much might be said
in praise of our newly elected member
of the House of Delegates, but it is I'M
necessary on our part. He will be
heard from in the halls of the legisla-
ture, and by him the interests and wei
fare of the county will be well watched
The Democrat is we'll pleased over his
election, and thanks the independent
republican voters of the county for the
assistance they gave him."
Election night friends and neighbors
gave him quite an ovation at his home.
Not content with keeping their joy at
home they piled the member elect into
buggy and brought him to the county
seat by hand power, headed by the band
and gave the town a thorough shaking
up, Mr.. Clifford being poweress to pre-
