DEMOCRATIC POLICY
Platform of Principles Adopted In
Convention at Harrisburg.
REPUBLICANS CENSURED.“
The Administrations of President Cleveland
_ .and Governor Pattison Highly Com-
mended—The Principal De-
‘mands of the Party.
lc state convention was called together by
Chairman Stranahan at 12: 10. The hall
was decorated with bunting in which the
' American colors predominated. The call
was read by Secretary Nead, after which
Chairman Stranahan announced the
names of temporary officers, who had
been selected yesterday by the state execu-
tive committee. Robefi E. Wright-of Al-
lentown, the temporary chairman, made a
short speech, which waswell received.
After the reading of the roll of delegates
it was referred to the committee on ere-
dentials. The chairman then announced
the committee on resolutions, credentials
and permanent organization, and at 12:45
9. m. the convention took a recess.
The Platform.
The following is in part the platform
adopted:
The Democracy of Pennsylvania renew
their expression of faith in Democratic
principles and their unfaltering confi-
dence that these principles are efficient for
good government, municipal, state and
federal.
The derangement of business, the dis-
turbances between labor and capital, the
reduction of wages, the unequal distribu-
tion of profits in economic operations and
the gross disparity in social conditions
which have resulted from the operation of
Republican laws will continue so leng as
those laws are unrepealed. The McKinley
tarifl bill is now in full force and opera-
tion.
We again - indorse and approve the dec-
larations of the Democratic national plat-
president and congress were elected.
We are opposed to the reckless inflation
of the currency to $40 per capita demand-
ed by the Republican state convention of
1893 and 1894, and while we favor the cir-
culaton of constitutional money, gold and
silver, at a parity of value, we are unalter-
currency or to the depreciation of any dol-
lar issued by the government to the peo-
ple.
We heartily approve and indorse the up-
right and sagacious administration of
President Cleveland.
We denounce the dereliotion of the Be
publican party in the legislative branches
of the state government; we arraign it for
profligacy and condemn it for refusal to
enact wholesome laws demanded for the.
public welfare. It refused to repeal the
statutes requiring the useless advertising
of mercantile appraisements at an enor-
mous expense to the state. It failed to
make congressional, senatorial, represent-
ative and judicial apportionment‘s. as
commanded by the constitution. It re~
fused to pass the legislation necessary to
protect the public from unjust discrimina‘
tion by corporations. It neglected to equal-
ize taxation in response to the demands of
overburdened labor and of the agricultural
interests of the commonwealth. It persis-
tently refused to adopt any method by
which the enormous deposit of state
moneys now scattered among favored in-
stitutions should be made amply secure
and remunerative to the commonwealth.
It failed to prescribe amendments to the
ballot laws necessary to promote greater
purity, secrecy and freedom of the fran-
chise.
Pattison’s Administration Indorsed.
We cordially approve and commend the
faithful and efficient administration of
Governor Robert E. Pattison.
We deplore all differences between em-
ployer and employee. and we deprecate
the resort to force for settlement of ques-
tions that should be determined by peace-
ful arbitrament.
enjoyment of his property, and of the priv<
liege to work when, for whom and at what
wages he will.
None the less we condemn the insincer-
ity and inconsistency of those who clamor
loudly for protection to American indus-
try and yet seek every occasion and lose
no opportunity to supplant it with cheap
imported pauper labor. We denounce the
hypocrite who pretends zeal for the im-
provement of the social condition of the
American workingmen ,and yet displaces
and evicts them for aliens, ignorant of our
laws and foreign to our institutions.
We reassbrt the old Democratic doctrine
of equal rights and religious liberty, and
we are opposed to all organizations which
strike at freedom of conscience.
Coxeyites Are Expensive.
WASHINGTON, June 28. —The attorney
general today sent to the senate through
the secretary of the treasury a request for
a deficiency appropriation of $125, 000 in
lieu of $50, 000 asked for some time ago.
This amount, it is estimated, will be re-
quired to meet the expense incurred by
the United States marshals and other offi-
cers of the department of justice in the ar-
rest and punishment of Coxeyites in the
west, charged with stealing trains.
