the peoplcian safe'y trust the party folia ed
by JelT rm and whose principles wen eti •
pliaa zed in tho -pl ndid patriotic and non-
secliunal administration of Gruver Ceve-
hnd.
We denounce the Republican pa 'y f.r
it- flagrant abus • and pro-'ituti-n of power
durin. the la-t four years. Com tig ini' lull
control of all brane es ot the overmi.ent
in 1888 by the u-e of unprecedent d e* erup-
tion fund; largely I vnd upon Govern ent
favorites by those before and i c" close

heiary that party iirniedial dy elite d upo

extravagance nev r be'o e venture' 1 up n l y
any party tn limes of peace.
It found the treasury aith a large und
daily increasing surplus ai d in ti nes of
great depression accompanied by the uni-
versal demand for relief from the burd ns
of taxation it dissipated the surplus by
making annual appropiations f $500000-
000. largely for unm eeessary and utterly in-
d fet.siblo pur uses and thereby tailed to
meet aud discharge the maturing bonded in-
debted css of the Government and now tiuds
itself confronted will: an imminent citicivn-
cy. Morever it made trany of its appro-
priations permanent for i o other purport
than to prevel.t the people from correcting
the evils done io long as the Republican
party retained control ol either the "enate
or Chief Magistracy ot the nation.
It transcended all piecedents in vicious
class legislation in the emictm nt of tin Me
Kin ey bill and finally Irigh ened t y the
extremities to which it bad gone soi'cht tn
app use the pub ic disconti nt by rccipioiity
hand the .-.doptiun oi which was a confes-
sion of the iniquity it had perp. tialed
It deprived States of tln ir just it pn siutu-
tion by a fa se c< n. us.
It deprived in lite most insol nt and ar-
bitrary manner and practically uitho .t an
opportunity to be heard representatives i t
the people ul their seats in the lower douse
of Congres-.
And linul y drunk with its own excesses
it oug t o perpetuate th" .vrongs it had
done by depriving the people ot the right to
hold their own e eclions ai d cbuo.e their
own servants by the e: act nent of the in-
tunious andexiciabl** loree bill.
It trealoii with utter contempt all idias ol
lunomy and hu; esly both in it pension
legislation and in i's administration of that
bureau.
It reject 'd i'emoer tic territories at.J ad
mitted Republican tenitories in order to re-
tain party supremacy.
This regime of tyrannyextravagance and
wrong doing contrasted with the e ean
honest prudent and wt e administration of
Grov 1 Cleveland brought upon the Re; üb-
liean party the most stupendous deleal that
evtr befell "ny party in this lountry and
inspired anew with confidence and hope all
the . eople in the possibility •!' pieserving
tree gov rnment for mankind.
Wudeclare our abiding fidelity to the:
constitution ofthe United S ales in its let-
ter imd spi it.
We declate our taith in the lapacit. of.
the people for self-govern nent. and in tl.ctr
inherent right to imjov it free from all Fed- ‘
en l iiiterfcroi.ee
Wo denounce tne Republican party be-
cause it turned its ba' k upon tho interests
of tho great mas os of socu ty. and sound
stable government for all and all.cd its for-
tune* with corporate \e Ith squander ng'
millions i.f the public domai: u on rai roads |
fostering legislation the legitimate offspring '
o which Ims been combinations and trusts
oppressing the labor it professeu to protest
and fastening e.er increasing ourdens i n
agricultur . until the homes ol the people in
great sections of the country are coveted
with mortgages and the markets of the
world closed to the fruit* ol honest toil.
Wu denout ce tho McKinley tariff as a
crime against honest govcrnmeiit and a ftce
po pie tot i nly because it levies an unnec-
essary tax and theieby imposes wanton and
cruel b trdens on the people but because it
destroys the markets lor their surplus pro-
duct*.
edenoun e it becan.-e it is class icgtsla-1
lion enacted in the interest of the favored I
tew. who are wealthy aid at the expense'
and for the oppression of the gre t mass of :
tho people.
We denounce il b cause it docs not in
crease w ges but surrenders the taxing pow ;
or oi the G vrnment to the manufuctur rs
and leave.- it to tho employers to ■ etermine
whether they will divide the immense boun-
ty it yields with those they employ.
We denounce it because it is tut'abuse
and per ersion of the taxing power of the
Constitution which was intended to be
used to raise necessary revenue for the sup-
port of th Government into the means of
plunde ii g all for the be; efit of a class.
Wo denounce il because it inaugurated
for t e tiist time in a free Government the
practice of taking from tho public treasury
tho n oney collected lor public purpose.*
trom id. the people and with it pay boun-
ties to select industlies.
We denounce it becuu-e it destroys the in-
dependence and self-reliance ofthe people
which is a National characteristic and
and teaches tbemtoiel.v upon governmen-
tal favoritem.
Wc denounce it because tho inevitable
tendency ot this system is tho destruction of
popular government in the dobauchmcnt oi
the billot by tribute extorted from favored
cl'tsscs whoso enormous bout.ties depend
upon the continuiu.ee ofthe system i self.
We declu e that tho mission of tho Demo-
cratic party is oso reform the la ill by a
reifuc ton • f taxation as to limit the revenues !
ot tho Government to its absolute necessi-
ties when economically udminutcrcd and to !
so frame its taritl schedules as to place the i
burdens ot government upon tho luxuries
and not npon tho necossrrios of life.
We favor a sato aud sufficient currency
composed of gold and silver and legal fonder
paper cotiviutable into coin i n dem nd and
maintained at par with each otln r.
W o declare it to be tho duty of tho Demo-
cratic party to preset vo tho parity ir. value
ot gold and silver and to provide the means
by th" equal and fair I runt merit of both met-
als.
We denounco the Sherman Silver bill as
nn obstruction to tho fair treatment of silver
and as a sham an I a pretense Intended to
postpone honest honest logis'ulion and to
appease the silver producers while giving no
relief to tho people.
Wo declare our purpose to continue to
maintain support and develop our public
schools in Um interest of general intelligence
and sound and stabl j government.
Wd declare it to bo tne sense ot this ccn-
vo tion that tho I’enotentiary lense system
should bo abolished and a syeti tn adopted
for tho treatment of convicts more consistent i
with tho bettor ilulinoU and more improvod
methods of tho age and that tho next Gen-
eral Assembly should not adjourn without
appropriate legislation on tills important I
subject.
We declare for free and lair elections re-
moved from intimidation and corruption of ;
all kinds and to that end wo will givo the
modified Australian ballot law enacted by
tho Inst Democratic Legislature a fair and
lull trial in the interost of good government
Wo indtgnanllv hurl buck upon tho Re-
publican party the oft ropoatod false accusa-
tion that elections in Arkansas are ton-
tro’.led by Intimidation and fraud; and wo
denounce it as tho old cry ot “Stop Thiofl”
by which tho qinbltioua demagogues repu-
diated bos eta und favored clnasos of that
party sw-k to divert attention from tholr
own misdeeds and to continue with impuni-
ty both to intimlduto their own employes

Fail to do our Duty
Everybody has at times failed to do
their duty toward themselves. Hun-
dreds of lady readers suffer from sick
headache nervousness sleeplessness
and female troubles. Let them fol-
low the example of Mrs. 11. llerbeeh-
ter Stevens Point Wis. who for live
years suffered greatly from nervous
prostration and sleeplessness tried
physicians and different medicines
without success. But one bottle of
Dr. Miles’ Nervine caused sound
sleep every night and she is feeling
like a new person. Mrs. Elizabetli
Wheeler Laramie City Wyoming
who tried all other remedies declares
that after three week's use ofthe Ner-
vine for headache nervous prostra-
tion etc. she was entirely relieved.

A one legged political orator named
Jones who was pretty successful in
bantering an Irishman was asked by
the later “how he had conic to lose his
leg.” “Well”said Jones “on examin-
ing my pedigree and looking up my
descent 1 found there was some Irish
blood in me and becoming convinced
that it had all settled in that left leg.
I had it cut off at once.” “Be the pow-

Deafness Cant be Cured
by local applications as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is aniy one way to cure deafness
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inflamed con-
dition of the muscous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube
gets inflamed you have a rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing and when
it is entirely closed deafness is the
result and unless the inflammation
ran be taken out and this tube re-
stored to its normal condition hear-
ing will be destroyed forever. Nine
cases out of ten are caused by catarrh
which is nothing but nn inflamed con-
dition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give one hundred dollars
for any ease of deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by tak-
ing Hall’s Catarrh Cure. Send for
