The Democratic Platform
New York World Telegram

New York World Telegram
The Democratic platform in striking degree pos
sesses the strength of understatement Not that II
Yields or recedes or apologies Entirely the contrary
1t points forward 1t does not rant and strut and
swagger as political declarations are wont to do
In effect it says, calmly and simply and reserved
ly: I'VE meant it, and will keep on from here.
1--WE have" and I'VE will continue" recur again
and again as the theme The net is, carry on That
tone appears most significantly in the part which
deals with the Constitution No dramaucs mere But
rather tone of firm patience.
Dealing in a wide and inclusive way with the ma
tons problems, such wages hours, child labor,
working conditions, floods, dust storms, droughts,
neutrality questions of State Federal approach the
platform says in substance
We have tried we have met obstacles we will try
again to see whether do the job without a
change in the ConStitution-but do the job we will,
and not confine ourselves to the single phase which
has been belatedly recognized by the Republican OPP
position.
To all those who had expected something rabid,
the Democratic platform of 1886 will be deep dlsap-
pointment 1t will reassure the great mass OF rea-
sonable Americans that the Roosevelt Administra-
ton if given four years of power will yield not
an inch in its purpose to restore prosperity and pro-
mote the safety and happiness of the people.
Since any political platform is relative, in the
sense that it must compete with the platform OF the
opposition, here is the contrast as we see it, with
the one that born in Cleveland:
Whereas the Republican platform looked forward
with trepidation, backward with longing and side
wise with apprehension, the Democratic looks only in
one direction-straight ahead along the course al
ready charter
Whereas the former was full of contradictions
giving the appearance of having been constructed by
liberals shoveling paragraph and reaconaries
the next there is in the Democratic platform thai
precious element called unity, than which there is
nothing potent, in literature or in politics.

Where Credit Is Due
Cincinnati Enquirer


President Roosevelts veto record is a long one.
OF the 1896 grist of Congress, he approved $50 bills
and vetoed 85 This brings his total OF bills vetoed
to 221 In fact, this is more than any other Presl-
dent except Cleveland vetoed in a four-year term,
and Mr. Roosevelts term is shorter than any other,
due to the constitutional amendment changing the
dates of Inauguration and of congressional sessions
Most of the bills vetoed deserved precisely that
fate Many of them were private claim bills = pay
mentS of money to individuals and corporations who
had no valid claim under existing laws Others were
minor appropriation bills which would have increased
expenditures unnecessarily. One was the soldiers
bonus bill, which passed over his veto.
Having so much talent for saying no to the
Congress- Mr. Roosevelt might be expected to say
mo" more frequently to his advisers when they come
along with visionary suggestions for putting the gov
eminent into enterprise. But it seems to
be harder to say no to colleagues whose relationship
closer than that of Congressman veto is rather
an impersona act being rejection of the action of
a whole body of men. The more difficult way to say
mo" is to a close adviser who would be panied and
grieved at rebuff

MONDAY, JULY 20. 1886.

AStrology reads this as FORUM
nate day for business affairs. 1t is
an suspicious time for looking af-
ter financial affairs and for deal
ing with bankers.
There is a sign of great promise
for those who launch business en-
terprises, but the stars frown upon
speculation. Commerce is under a
direction of the planets which ap-
pears to presage expansion, i'm
provement of harbors and new
benefits.
Building continues under rule
that assures great activity for ar
chitects and contractors. Beauty
is to be sought in leading cities in
the United States.
Scandals and libel suits now
will be numerous, for the stars
presage plots and counterplots
among political campaigners. Nep-,
tune is read as likely to encourage
secret alliances and numerous
treacheries.
Enemies of men in high places
will write bitter invectives for per-
iodicals and there will be trouble
over radio concessions.
The seers warn that women may
be peculiarly dangerous to condi-
dates who seek high places. for
there will be much ill-directed en-
thusiasm among those who are
active in politics. Scandals will be
whispered when there is no foun-
dalton for ugly comment.
The death of a United Statese
Senator will overturn many poll
tical plans in one of the western
states. Surprises are prognosti7
Gated in the relatively small num-
Der of votes cast by independent
organizations next November.
For the next few months Amer
leans will break their own records
as tourists in increased air travel
and trips to the uttermoSt corners
of the earth.
Persons whose birthdate it is
have the augury of year of pro-
gress and prosperity. Remarkable
new friendships are indicated.
Children born on this day prob
ably will be exceedingly talented
and independent. Subjects of this
sign may reach the heights and
work out distinct ideas in art or
science.
Sir Richard Owen, anatomist,
was born on this day, 1904 Others

Lawyers Victims
OF New Racket

A new and effective racket
which has already netted him
500 in Iowa is being worked by a
man who calls himself George
Miller, radio station KNHD war
ned attorneys Saturday.
The racketeer who is in his ear
ly thirties, not quite six feet tall
and of dark complexion, preys on
lawyers. He visits one, pays him
a cash retainer fee and tells him
that he has wealthy aunt in
nearby town who is having trou-
BILE over real estate holdings. He
then arranges for the lawyer to
meet the fictitious aunt in a hotel
in the town named and leaves.
While the lawyer makes the trip
and waits in the hotel for the
aunt, Mr.. Miller breaks into his
office, obtains one of the attor-
ney's checks and FORCES his name
to it, copying the signature on the
retainer fee receipt.
Usually the lawyer does not
know of the forgery until his
checks are returned from the
bank at the end of the month.
