Baltimore Democrats Slow iii Drafting Principles on

Mill Present il Plank For tdoption--. otnefal Endorsement oi I.
 and E. Recall.

Baltimore, June 25.-Senator Du- bois, national manager of tlte |hamp Clark cam m)aign, said tonight that no work had yet been doHe on the plal- form by the speakers supporters, so far as he was aware
 some of our Eastern friends he Yoiunteered "haEe come To us since our victory in the convention today and told us to 90 ahead and fix the platform 10 sNit ourselves But we shall consult carefully every hade of the Progressive opinion before dccid- ing definitely upon any important plank
 William Jennings Bryan said to- the outline of any plank he may sub init to the platform committee, of which he is member and may be chairman.
 As matter of fact very little work thus far has heen done towards put ting the platform in shape. That it will ring out clearly as a Progressive declaration there is no doubt in any quarter.
 There promises to be a lively argu- ment over the plank dealing with the question of enlar2ing the Navy.
 ;ah ID nf X n, has plank that ne will urge and which embodies tersely his contention for the strongest Navy in the world.
 A large number of the members of the committee are known to favor a plank, pledging at least two warships a year of the latest improved type.
 The only reference to the initiative, referendum and recall in the platform probably will be general endorse ment of those Progressive principles, by pointing out that they are ques- tions with which the states will have to deal.
 Primary elections will be urged, particularly for the election of dele gates to the National Conventions and for members of Congress.
 The Denver plank and all the other Progressive issues will be embodied in the new platform, with pronably some unimportant changes of phrase olosy, merely to make them clearer.
 Samuel Gompers, president Of the American Federation of Labor, arrlv- ed tonight with plank on the labor question, which he will submit to the Platform Committee.
 .'There is nothing in our present plank that makes any essential ad- vance over the Denver Platform, said Gompers.
 The platform will contain plah s+ro,o enlargement of the Sherman antitrust law, with demands that IL he strengthened where it has been cboMn to be weak or inefficient The party pledge on this subject IS to De one of the most specific blanks of the platform.
 Joseph E. Bell, of Indiana, in the convention today, offered resolution making the rules of the House or Representatives govern the proceed ings of the convention and limiting dabate on the platform to thirty min utes. save hy unanimous consent.

Baltimore, June 25-Bryan's defeat in the fight which he made in the convention today against the selec- ton ot Judge Parker for temporary chairman is regarded as leaving Champ Clark far in the lead in the race to head the ticket.

Mr.. Editor:
It was my privilege and plea s
ure few nights ago to hear a lee
.ture delivered against the liquor
traffic. Since there seems to be
a move on foot to call an election
in Washington Parish as to
whether We will have the open
saloon, | want to give some facts
and figures gotten from this
lecture.
There are three groundless
arguments advanced by the
liquor men. First, they claim
that the open saloon helps bust
ness. The cry Of the revenue
with which to build up the town
and state. Keep the money that
is sent away from home for
LIQUOR and help business prosper
The state eff Maine as result OF
sixty years prohibition has S196
per capita in the savings bank.
Pennsylvania where the open
saloon dominates there is $12 per
capita in the saying bank. 1t
helps busi:ess does it?
The second plea of the whiskey
men is that prohibition takes
personal liberty from free men.
The law of prohibition is not
against men drinking whiskev
but against sellingi it. There is a
law against the sale of decayed
meat but none against a man
eating that kind if he desires,
We want q law ngainst the sale o.
drink and not the drinking Of it
It is an established fact that the

sale of it certainly steals the
happiness of MANY a nome and
takes roses from the wite.s
cheeks and destroys the
pleasures of a happy home.
The third argument of the
liquor forces is the thread-barc
cry. I'VE just as we'll have the
open saloon as to have the
blind tiger like we have it here's.
Let US look at some staticties
gotten from the liquor men
themselves. In the blind tiger
territory there was used l 3
gallons of whiskey per capita
last year. In the territory where
the sale of it is licensed there
was used ~ 2 8 gallons for every
