Splinters Fron The Platform Payne-Aldrich_tariff law denoun- ced as failure to carry out promises of majoriiy partyin congress. In- stead of schedules representing the difference between the cost of pro- duction at home abroad, in some cases they are equal to the total cost of production both at home and abroad. Its adoption is declag; ed due to the malign influence of the protective sysiem, which is den- ounced in its preseht form as the fruit of corrpptian and graft. President Taft is denounced - for weakness and timidity in permitting the predatory interests to put through an iniquitous tariff law, op- posed to the pledges of his own cam- paign, and for making no subsequent efforts to fulfill party promises. The administration is also condemned for its initial effort to destroy the conservation policies of, Theodore Roosevelt, and contempt is expressed for later efforts ‘to attempt to show the administration a supporter of conservation, after public indigation has been aroused. The appointment and retention of Secretary Ballinger, who is described as an attorney for Fredatory interests, are condemned, and the dismissal of Gifiord Pinchot is declared to be a crime. The Minnesota insurgent congress men are commended for their “futéle votes” against the tariff bill, which are declared to prove the folly of getting a genuine revision through the Republican -party, The men who supported Cannonism, it is de- clared, should be retired by their Republican constituents. The platform- declares for popular election of United States senators, and for the federal income tax. On state issues the rlatform de- clares in favor of legislative reappor- tionment according to the true dis- tribution of population. Conserva- tion as favored by Governor John- son, and as defeated by the legisla- ture, is favored. The usual anti-trust plank is inserted. Declaration is made for extention of education.in agriculture and industrial lines, and for taxation of. state lands. ““We hold that all questions ef- fecting the moral, political and economic welfare of the people should be directly subjectto the conscience and will of the ‘people. To this end we demand that the incoming state legislature, regardless of the political affiliations of its members, submit to the voters of this state at the general election a constitutional amendment pro- viding for the initiative, the re- ferendum and recall. We hold that with this fundamental democracy at their de- mand, the people can settle all lows: urer, Chas. questions in accordance with the will i of a majority. We pledge the zominees of this convention and the democratic members - to do_ their utmost in support of this policy.” |TROOPS ASKED instrument - of | Two Thonsand Militia on ' Duty at Columbus, 0.

Buffalo, July 29.—The Grand Trunk strike situation has taken an acute form in' the vicinity of Buffalo within the past twenty-four hours. - The strik- ers have been active in many ways and -as ‘a result trafic is completely tied up.

Seven- teen Democratic ‘Members of lllinoig Legislature Had Agreed to Vote for Re-Election ‘of Former Senator for $2,000 Each. Chicago, July 29.—The Tribune prints a statement that an ,attempt was made previous to the election of Willlam Lorimer as United States senator to’purchase seventeen Demo- cratic votes at $2,000 a vote to secure the re-election’ of Senator Albert J. Hopkins. The story comes on top of a recent luncheon where Roger Sulli- van, Democratic national committee- man for Illinois, and representatives f the Legislative Voters’ league fired pointed remarks at each other. On this occasion Mr. ‘Sullivan is quoted as saying: ‘Why: don’t you fellows look into what Albert J. Hopkins was trying to do at Springfield for four months?” The Tribune declares that $35,000 was collected to secure the needed votes. It was placed in the hands of two little known legislators and the block of votes selected and made ready for delivery. 1t is alleged that Mr. Sullivan and Speaker Shurtleff spoiled the plan. The speaker is said to have told the culprits that he would expose the plot from the chair the moment a Demo- cratic ballot was cast for Hopkins. Then Sullivan entered the arena. He arrived at Spripgfield at midnight one night an,d gathering’ the seventeen about him, threatened to break every political bone in their bodies if they voted for Hopkins. That ended it. The Tribune expresses the belief that the plot was formed without the knowledge of Senator Hopkins. GERMANY DECLINES THE JOB Will Not Ask United States to Stop “Interfering” in Nicaragua. Berlin, July 29.—Germany has de- clined to entertain the request of President Madriz that this govern- ment use its friendly offices to put a stop to what is termed the interfer- ence of the United States in the ‘af- fairs of Nicaragua. The Nicaraguan circular note to the powers, in which a protest against the attitude of Washington toward the re- bellion was coupled with a plea for foreign intervention, was received by the foreign office on June 16 by cable direct from Managua. In a statement just {ssued J. F. W Pein. the Nicaraguan'consul genéral at Berlin, cautions the public not to believe the reports of insurgent vic- tories. These reports, he says, are in- vented at Bluefields, the headquarters of General Estrada, the leader of the insurrection. HALF OF VILLAGE BURNED - i Driscoll, N.
