CONVENTIONS ANp PLATFoRMs

Last week was convention season in
Wisconsin, four platform gatherings
being held at the state capital by re-
publicans, democrats, prohibitionists
and socialists, and party declarations
formulated upon which the respective
partisans will go before the people so
Letting their suffrage at the approach
ing election. That the declarations are
all pronounced on almost every conceiv-
able subject and policy must be admit
ted. All of these announcements are
given on the inside news pages of to-
days CENSOR and should be carefully
considered by readers.
The republican platform follows along
lines adopted in past recent years with
advances that will appear as innova-
tions on the body polite, but as whole
will be accepted as the correct doctrine
of progressive party. On the subject
of greatest interest in the primary
struggle, that of county option, the
platform is painfully silent, greatly to
the regret of large element of the
party. The nearest approach to utter
anee on the liquor question is where
the platform says 1--WE condemn Ger
tain brewery interests for their activ-
ity, = meaning, we presume, to condemn
those certain" brewers who were
against US, instead of being for US.
The democrats displayed greater can
dor and frankness by openly declaring
against county option.
That there was studied effort on
part of the four parties for vote-catch-
ing is too manifest to be misunderstood.
