The Republican National Platform. TAMMANY ICE TRUST REYSE WHENEVER I THINK OF TRUSTS IT SENDS A COLD CHILL UP MY SPINAL COLUMN "There is no longer controversy as to the importance of the institutions, every American dollar is a gold denomination its assured equivalent, and American credit is the currency of any nation. Capital is fully employed and everywhere labor is profitably occupied. On Prosperity and the War. " No single face can more strikingly tell the story of the means to the country than this—that while during the whole period of 107 years, from 1861 to 1961, ports over imports of only $88,095,497 WHENEVER I THINK there has been in the short three years of the present Republican administration and in the enormous sum of $4,483,574,094. "And while the American people, sustained by this Republican legislation, have been defeated in victory concluded a war of their business and commerce, they have conducted and in victory concluded a war of national aggrandizement tarished the high purpose with which American standards were unfurled. It was a war unintended by the government, because the American government was ready. Its feets were cleared for action. Its officers were trained and signal triumph of its forces on land and sea bore equal tribute to the courage of American soldiers and sailors and to the statesmanship. To 10,000,000 of the human race there was given a 'new birth of freedom' and the American people a new noble responsibility. Indorse. All McKinley's Acts. "We indorse the administration of William McKinley. Its acts have been established in wisdom and integrity, and at least it has distinctly denied and extended the influence of the American nation. Walking untried paths and facing unforeseen responsibilities, President McKinley has the true American patriot and the upright statesman, clear in vision, strong in judgment, firm in action, always inspiring and deserving the confidence of his country." "In asking the American people to indulse this Republican record and to renew the American record, we remind them of the fact that the menace to their prosperity has always resided in the general incapacity of the Democratic party to conduct public affairs. The prime essential of business prosperity is the ability to deal intelligently with each new problem of administration and in its ability to deal intelligently with each new problem of administration. Democratic party has never earned. It is hopelessly inadequate, and the country's prosperity when Democratic success is threatened, in more anticipation of Democratic blunders and failures. Favor New Monetary Legislation. "We renew our allegiance to the principle of confidence in the wisdom of the legislation of the LVIIth congress, by which the parity of all our money is maintained, gold宝s have been secured. We recognize that interest rates are a potent factor in production and business equalizing and of further lowering the rates of interest. We believe that interest will enable the varying needs of the season and of all sections to be promptly met in order that trade may be evenly sustained. labor steadily employed." and commerce enlarged. The volume of money in circulation was never so great per capita as it is today. Firm Against Free Silver. "We declare common broadcast opposition to the free trade limitations imposed on the countries of the world. However firmly our legislation may seem to have secured the country against the perils of base and discontent. Our democratic president could not fail to impire the country's credit and to bring once more into question the intention of the American government to standard the parity of their money circulation. "The Democratic party must be convinced that American people will never tolerate this." Favor Laws Against Trusts. "We recognize the necessity and pro-pley of the honest co-operation of cap-teries especially to extend our rapidly increasing foreign trade, but we condemn all con-structive business, create intended to restrict business, create more limited production or to control prices, and favor such legislation as will effectually protect and promote competition, protect the rights of producers, laborers and all who are engaged in industry and com- Reciprocity to Aid Labor. K OF TRUSTS IT SENDS A COLD CHILL protected in the occupancy of their own markets, their constantly increasing knowledge, and their ability finally to enter the markets of the world. "We favor the associated policy of restricting the markets on favorable terms for what we do not ourselves produce in return for free foreign markets. On Immigration and Convict Labor. In either interest of American workmen, we favor a more effective restriction of the immigration of cheap labor opportunities of education for working children, the raising of the age limit for child labor, the protection of free labor as against compulsory education, an effective system of labor inscription. To Protect Home Shipping. "Our present dependence upon foreign ships for nine-tenths of our foreign cargo in this country. It is also a serious danger to our trade, for its sudden withdrawal in the case of an inscription cripple our expanding foreign commerce. The national defense and naval efficiency will be ensured by pelling reason for legislation which will enable us to recover our former place among the trade-carrying fleets of the world. "The nation owes a debt of profound gratitude to the soldiers and sailors who have fought its battles, and it is the government and for the widows and orphans of those who have fallen in the country's wars. The pension laws, founded in this country, should be liberally administered and preference should be given wherever practicable with respect to employment in the military and sailors and to their widows and orphans. Civil Service in the Islands. "We commend the policy of the republican party in maintaining the efficiency of public service in Cuba, Porto Rico, Hawaii for acted wisely in its efforts to secure for public service in Cuba, Porto Rico, Hawaii whose fitness has been determined by training and experience. We believe that employment in the public service in these states is as far as practicable to their inhabitants. Against Restriction of the Ballot. "It was the plain purpose of the fifteenth amendment to the constitution to prevent the establishment in regulating the elective franchise. Devices of state government, whether by state legislature or by the purpose of this amendment are revolutionary and should be condemned. The permanent improvement of the roads and highways of the country meet with our cordial approval, and we recommend this subject." to the earnest consideration of the people of the legislatures of the several states. We favor the extension of the rural firearm law wherever its extension may be justified. **Arid Lands and New States.** In further parentalism to the constant policy of the republican party to provide free homes on the public domain, we recommend the aird lands of the state to reclaim the aird lands of the state, reserving control of the distribution of war rigation to the respective states and territories. We favor some rue for and the early admission to statehood of the territories of New Mexico, Arizona and Oklahoma. **Reduction in War Taxes.** The Dingley act, amended to provide war, has so well performed its work that it has been possible to reduce the war debt of the government's revenues and so great is the public confidence in the integrity of its obligations that its newly funded 2 million military unit is now justified in expecting and it will be the policy of the republican party to bring about a reduction in war taxation. Favor an Isthmian Canal. "We favor the construction, ownership, control and protection of an isthmian canal in order to increase the number of New markets are necessary for the increasing surplus of our farm products. Every effort should be made to open and develop our canal orient; and the administration is warily to be commended for its successful efforts to commit all trading and colonizing naissance to the policy of the open door in China.

"The American government must protect the person and property of every citizen who are wrongfully violated or placed in peril." "We congratulate the women of America upon their splendid record of public service in cancer care, hospitalization and as nurses in cancer and hospitalization, recent campaigns of our armies in the Eastern and Western Indies, and we appreciate their faithful co-operation in all our efforts." "President McKinley has conducted the foreign affairs of the United States with great success and has done a great job. In releasing us from the vexatious condition of a European alliance for the future, we have been able to be commended. By securing to our undivided control the most important island in the Pacific, the island in the Southern Pacific every American interest has been safeguarded. We approve the annexation of the Hawaiian islands to the United States. We commend the part taken by our government in the defense of Hague. We assert our steadfast adherence to the policy announced in the Monroe doctrine. We assert our steadfast adherence were wisely regarded when President McKinley tendered his friendly offices to Britain and the South African Republic While the American government must continue to affirm by every succeeding president and imposed upon us by the Hague treaty, the American people earnestly hope that a way may soon be found, honorable alike to the American people, to terminate the strife between them.

FOR PRESIDENT: WILLIAM McKINLEY, of Ohio. FOR VICE-PRESIDENT: THEO. ROOSEVELT, of New York. Bishop Turner claims that, in event of Bryan's election, Federal troops will be called out to prevent lynchings. The Democratic national platform says: "We denounce arbitrary interference by Federal authorities in local affairs as a violation of the Constitution of the United States and a crime against free institutions." Lynching is a local institution which the Democrats of certain sections take a delight in, and it is not likely that Bryan would interfere with Democratic amusements. Lynching is confined al- 195 PRESIDENT McKINLEY. most entirely to Democratic states. The spectacle of Pitchfork Tillman, who will be Bryan's adviser-in-chief in case of election, advising him to stop a South Carolina lynching with Federal troops would be inspiring. In 1864, when Lincoln was running for his second term, the issues were the same as they are today. The paramount issue of that campaign was whether President Lincoln was to be sustained in his efforts to put down the rebellion, preserve the Union and wipe out slavery. As the Democratic party is now advocating that American troops be withdrawn from the Philippines and the insurgents be given control of the country, so then they are demanded that the Federal soldiers be withdrawn from the states in rebellion and peace be sought "by cessation of hostilities." In the states where Afro-American voters have been disfranchised the whites are now discussing the idea of separating the school funds so that the taxes paid by Afro-Americans will go to support schools for their race. The Southern Democrats who claim they are the best friends of the Afro-Americans have a queer way of showing their friendship. First, they disfranchise a man because he illiterate and then take away his opportunity to acquire knowledge. By giving a number of good appointments to Afro-Americans, the Tammany Democrats made many votes among the race in Greater New York. But when the race riots came the Tammany policemen clubbed and mistreated many innocent people simply because their faces were black. All of the New York Democratic Afro-Americans, except the men who hold jobs, will vote the Republican ticket this year. "The gentleman from North Carolina, Mr. Linney, has seen fit to criticise the South for her treatment of the Negroes I want to say to him and all others who think like him that this is a white man's government, and we intend to rule in the South by whatever means it is found necessary to employ."—Congressman Talbert of South Carolina, a Democrat, in a speech in the Fifty-sixth congress. ```markdown ``` J. J. RICHARD YATES, NEXT GOVERNOR OF ILLINOIS. --- THE APREAL A NATIONAL AFRO-AMERICAN NEWSPAPER Two months ago the city council of Montgomery, Ala., passed an ordinance providing separate seats for white and Afro-American passengers.

Now Turner has flown and there is no head to the headquarters. Bourke Cochran, the gentleman from Ireland, who has proposed the repeal of the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments, is now in the West speaking for Bryan. Four years ago Mr. Cochran said: "The American Nation will never consent to substitute the republic of Washington, of Jefferson and of Jackson for the republic of an Altgeld, a Tillman or a Bryan. The Chicago Afro-American Democrats gave notice that they would celebrate emancipation day with a grand "todo" at which Bryan would declare against disfranchisement of the race in the South. Emancipation day has come and gone, but the big demonstration did not materialize and, up to date, Bryan has not declared himself. Twenty of the largest cotton mills of the Piedmont district of South Carolina have gone on half time because of the high prices of cotton. The Afro-American planters are getting from two to three times as much for their cotton as they received under a Democratic president. This is McKinley prosperity. It is said that the Goebelites in Kentucky are in favor of disfranchising the Afro-Americans in that state, although there are, according to the cen- NATL.

They can hardly say that there is danger of "Negro domination" in Kentucky. In 1896 South Carolina cast for all candidates for president, 68,907 votes, and 58,798 of them went to Tillman's man Bryan. The black men of South Carolina were not allowed to poll more than ten percent of their voting strength. That's Tillman's idea of "consent of the governed." Last week was "whiskers week" and the barbers' trade fell off. Men who intended to wear beards this winter neglected to shave. The fellow who made an election bet that he would not shave until Bryan is elected will not be of much use to the barbers. Five states, Alabama, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina and South Carolina have undertaken to deprive 600,000 of the "governed" of the opportunity to give or withhold that consent guaranteed as a right by the Declaration of Independence. Nine out of ten of the large manu- facturing and business men are sup- porting McKinley. What stronger ar- gument do the wage earners want than this that the best interests of the country demand the success of the Re- publican ticket? J. W. A. Shaw, one of the Afro- American Democrats who was given a place by Tammany, has returned to the L. J. HON. W. T. DUBBIN. Republican Candidate for Governor of Indiana. Republican fold.

Senator Jones, chairman of the national Democratic committee, says he will not leave Chicago until Bryan is president.

NORTHCOTT Will be Reelected Lieutenant Governor of Illinois. risking their money on election bets are shrewd fellows, and they are not influenced by sentiment. The odds are still three to one and upward in favor of McKinley. Be sure to make a vigorous fight for the Republican candidates for congress in every district where there is a possible chance of election. A Republican congress is needed to uphold the president. Governor Roosevelt threw the weight of his influence to the school bill prohibiting the establishment of separate schools for the races, which passed the New York legislature last winter. Bishop Turner's principal grievance is against the United States supreme court. Would it be improved by the addition of Bryan's men, Tillman, Alt-geld and Boss Croker? Indiana is a close state in every election; majorities are always small, but a careful canvass of the state shows that McKinley will get a larger plurality than in 1896. The wage earner who works a full day is entitled to full pay in honest money for his toll. A 50-cent dollar is not honest money, and Bryan knows Bryan is chasing around the country after votes like a "yaller pup" up and down the fields for a rabbit he saw last week. There are 89 Afro-American clerks in the pension office at Washington, and their pay amounts to $87,740 per annum. Bryan, with his crude financial theories and faulty ideas of government, is still airing his ignorance before the people. American honor is involved in the question of the American dollar. Both must be preserved untainished. If you wish your wife and little ones at home to continue happy and contented, vote for McKinley. A vote for Bryan is a vote for adversity. By the way, what has become of "Coin" Harvey? Elect McKinley and the free silver craze will never be resurrected.

It is said that owing to some unpleasantness, the cause of which is a secret, the Russian and Dutch attaches were ordered to leave Cape Town Castle, the British military headquarters, a few nights ago. Col Gourkou, the Russian, declined to leave unless force were used, but the queen of Holland's representative was less fiery, and was on the point of leaving when a secretary came rushing in from Sir A. Milner, with a gracious apology and an assurance that the whole affair was a mistake. Mutual handshakes, so the story goes, ended an incident which might have assumed an international character. We had one issue then and we have one now. Mr. Morris is a full-fledged Republican and one that is always ready to speak in their behalf. The opening address was made by Mr. George Matchen, who in a father-like way gave the boys the inside trade on the workings of the campaign committee and just what he told them to do things alone. His talk was short and to the point, assuring the boys that as chairman of the Republican State Committee he would be found Johnny on the Spot whenever called upon for anything in his power to give. Mr. Edward Hammond, who does not pose as a speaker gave vent to his feelings by making a whirl or two at the club as to his attitude and gave them to understand that the old party was good enough for him. The meeting was called for the purpose of forming a marching club and Mr. James Butler was made captain of the party to become members will make the same known to Mr. James Bittles, St. James' Mission, as soon as practicable. Meeting adjourned subject to call. --- We have learned that the Merchant who BURNER A Curious Story MINNEAPOLIS. DOINGS IN AND ABOUT THE GREAT "FLOUR CITY."

Mr. Curtis is quite a talker, but he must remember that he is just about fifteen years ahead of the times with that kind of a talk. Our old people have not and so never will as a whole rise to the summit where they fully understand all of the different issues and you might as well be pounding sand in a rat hole as to be preaching imperialism and trust issues to the one thing that you can feed them on the other is public food and they will tell you return that it is good enough for them.

Write for instruction how to purchase one and send for catalogue AMERICAN ARTIFICIAL LIMB CO., 1264 Wabasha Street BUSINESS INTERESTS IMPERILED BY BRYAN HIS ELECTION WOULD MEAN A TRYING READJUSTMENT. Voters Should Remember the Fearful Storm Which Passed Over the Country When Cleveland Was Elected In 1892. The timely and pertinent article from the pen of Secretary Gage on the subject of the gold standard law and the opportunity that the president would have to nullify its effects, and his reply to Mr. Schurz, suggests a danger that is not only imminent, but is apparent, when considered with the conditions resulting from the last administration under Mr. Cox. In the campaign that ended in the election of that gentleman the issue was the tariff. The Democratic platform had denounced the McKinley law in the usual terms; had pledged the country that, if given power, it would repeal the protective tariff and substitute the tariff for revenue only; denouncing the reciprocity clause as a fraud, etc. This was a pledge on the part of the Democracy which, if elected, it was in duty bound to fulfill, and contrary to the general expectation of the business men of the country Mr. Cleveland and both houses of congress able to the Democracy, were elected. The questions that presented themselves to the minds of the business men were: "What changes will be made in the tariff?" "To what extent will those changes go?" "How will it affect the industries of the country?" "Will my business be affected, and to what extent?" Then followed the inevitable retrenchment on the part of the business men to make themselves safe and to protect their business interests from the consequences of the changes that the Democracy was pledged to make. No country could undergo the pre-requisite stage of such radical changes resulting from the feeling the effect, and the sudden halt to which all business interests were brought precipitated the panic. Mr. Cleveland and his advisers failed to see the cause, and as a consequence the Democracy went off on the wrong scent. When congress was called together in the spring of 1882 by Mr. Cleveland it was to consider the advisability, the advisability, the law, as a measure of relief in straying the storm. Instead of making the changes pledged to be made in the tariff laws, and after spending several months quarrelling, during which time the business interests of the country were trying to adjust themselves to a change they could only anticipate, and smaller concerns were collapsing like a tornado, congress managed to repeal the purchasing clause, and adjourned. Newspapers attributed the panic to first one cause and another, and the Democratic party was all at sea. Values were shrinking, prices were going down, mills were closing, furnaces were being banked, mercantile houses of all kinds and sizes were breaking, banks were closing their offices, workers and laborers of all kinds were thrown out of employment, and went in a good many instances as charges to the charitably inclined, every city of any consequence opened soup houses to help the starving; in fact, to use a figure of speech, it was the wreck of a cyclone in the business houses of the United States, and the party in power not only failed to apply the necessary relief, but was utterly unable to comprehend the utterance of the master and tried to shift the responsibility of the fish, office-grabbing, business-wrecking policy upon the shoulders of the previous administration. The cause of the panic, as viewed from a business standpoint, was the inability of the Democratic party to handle the affairs of the government in a crisis. A prompt and decisive action on the part of the party in power in fulfilling its pledges would have in a measure saved the country millions of dollars loss. But, instead of its prompt action, there was nothing but the need to be careful, and when the Wilson \bill was finally passed it was so unsatisfactory that the president refused to sign it. The same kind of danger, in a worse form, will threaten the country should Mr. Bryan be elected. The Democratic party is pledged to free coinage of silver at the ratio of 16 to 1, both in the Chicago and Kansas City platforms, and Mr. Bryan, in his speech delivered at Knoxville Sept. 16, 1896, said: "If there is any one who believes that the gold standard is a good thing, or that it must be maintained, I want him not to cast his vote for me, because I promise him it will not be maintained in this country longer than I am able to get rid of it." Suppose he is elected president, and should have a congress his way of thinking, would not the country be justified in believing that the Democrat outwits the Republican out its pledges? Would not the business interests be justified in trying to protect themselves from loss by anticipating the action of Mr. Bryan in carrying out the promises made in the Kansas City platform? Would not the result be the same or worse than when he met Omaha and the party pledged to reform the tariff were placed in power? What right has any one to expect that the interests of the country will be safe from the consequences of Mr. Bryan's election and the fulfillment of the pledges he has made and his own expressed determination in cerning the gold standard act, in the face of his ability to carry them out? The business interests of this country must and will adjust themselves to whatever changes will be made in legislation affecting them, but no man can be made to accept that and can only be determined by the changes made, the length of time re- quired in making them, bearing upon the business ... of the country. Business men, as well as the laboring classes, must protect themselves, as far as possible aid in protecting the business from the demagogues. The election of Mr. Bryan must be considered as a business matter, and its effects on the business interests of the country thoroughly studied. The results of the election of Mr. Cleveland and a Democratic congress should be an expert on from which to draw the people should profit for some years yet, at least. —Thos. H. Baker, Jr. INCAPABLE OF SELF-GOVERNMENT. Only a Few Designing Filipino Lenders Are Making the Misleach. Dr. J. Sanger, formerly of San Francisco, but for the past six years a practicing physician in Manila, is now visiting Washington. He says: "If Bryan is defeated at the polls, in November the Filipino rebellion will crumble away like a house of cards. It is only kept alive by the hope that the government will be successful in the November elections. "The Filipinos are no more capable of self-government than the American Indians are capable of conducting the government of the United States. The Tagalas are the only tribe that make a very small portion of them can read and write. In point of numbers they are one of the weakest tribes in the Philippenes, and as they are hated by the other tribes there would be constant war should the Tagals attempt to govern the islands. The self-government is confined to a few unscrupulous leaders, who would rob the country and then escape to live in luxury in Paris or some other European capital, while the powers of the old world gobbled up the islands. The Philippine islands has the faintest idea that a Filipino government is even remotely possible." England Favors Bryan's Election. One of the bogus issues raised in the present campaign by the Democratic party in order to play upon the prejudices of a class of American voters is the secret alliance bogey. Not a scintilla of evidence has ever been furnished upon which to base the declaration, yet it has been dwelt upon with the same persistence and demagogic iteration as the imperialistic fiction. As the impoverished bogey is dwelt upon, the real issue, so the secret alliance cry is persisted in to deceive that class of voters it is hoped to influence through national prejudices. The fact is, England desires the election of Bryan. Two great English journals, the London Spectator and the London Truth, have made no scruple to declare that it is for the interest of Great Britain and would be most gratifying to her of Bryan should be invited to the American presidential contest. Senator Depew of New York recently arrived from a visit to Europe, and upon being interviewed, declared that there was no doubt of a prevailing sentiment in England in favor of Bryan's election. Now, it would seem from the American alliance" exists, Great Britain would be quite willing to forego all the benefits derived from it in exchange for the greater advantages that would accrue from the election of Mr. Bryan. But, as Senator Depew says, England's solicitude for Bryan's election is prompt enough, and the more than "commercialism," that thing which Democratic leaders affect so much to detest.

Albert Berg, Secretary of State. Pursuant to chapter 157 of the General Laws of 1887, I herewish file in your office synopsis of the Amendment to the Constitution of the State of Minnesota as proposed by chapter 92 of the General Laws of 1890. I am very respectfully, W. B. DOUGLAS, Attorney General. SYNOPSIS OF AMENDMENT TO THE CONSTITUTION OF THE STATE OF MINNESOTA PROPOSED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE SAID STATE AS THE LAST SESSION THEREOF, AND TO BE VOTED UPON AT THE GENERAL ELECTION TO BE HELD ON NOVEMBER 6TH, 1900. By General Laws 1890, Chapter 92, it is proposed to amend Article eight (8), Section six (6) of the Constitution. The section as now existing reads as follows: Section 6. The permanent school and university fund of this state may be in county, school district, city, town or village of this state, but no such investment of the state may be approved by the board of commissioners. The board regulates the investment of the permanent school fund and the permanent university fund and the permanent loan or investment be made which the same in part would make the entire county exceeded the assessed value of the assessment of the taxable real property of the county, such bonds; or shall such issuing such bonds; nor shall such issuing deckedness be made at a lower rate of interest than three per cent per annum for twenty years, nor for a longer period than twenty (20) years, and no change of the town, school district, county, village or county of such bonds of the issuing of such bonds from any liability for taxation to pay such bonds. It is proposed by said chapter to amend the same so as to read as follows: Section 6. The permanent school and university fund of this state may be in district, city, town or village of this state, but no such investment shall be made by the commissioners designated by the board of commissioners designated by the law for investment of the permanent school fund and the permanent university fund of this state. The investment of the permanent school be made when the bonds to be issued or purchased would make the entire bonded investment of the assessed valuation of the taxable real property of the county, school district, city, town or village issuing such investment be made at a lower rate of interest than three (3) per cent per annum nor for a longer period than twenty (20) years, and no change of the town, school district, county, village or city in relieve the real property in such town, school district, county, village or city in The effect of the above amendment if adopted will be to authorize the investment of the permanent school and unilateral fund of this state for a period of not less than four (4) years and twenty (20) years at an interest rate not less than three (3) per cent per annum, in the bonds of any county, school district, city, town or village of this state, when the loan is made out of the cost of not make the entire bonded indebtedness of such municipalities exceed fifteen (15) per cent of the assessed valuation of the taxable real property contained therein. The substantial change proposed by said amendment is to authorize such investments when the entire indebtedness, including the loan in question, does not exceed seven (7) per cent of the valuation of the taxable real property such municipalities; whereas, under the existing constitution loans are permitted only where such total indebtedness does not exceed seven (7) per cent of the assessed valuation.
