Upon his shoulders and upon the shoulders of his party will rest the burden of his defeat four years ago when as the nominee he proved weaker than his ticket, and we have no assurances ‘that the same vote which deserted him atthat time would not do so again. : The Republican leaders have sized up the situation and believe him to be the weaker man and through the Re- publican papers they are working for his nomination and are centering their fight on Major.

The Democratic platform, on the 5 ties iis not as well known as a politician as other hand, is specific and definite. It pledges the party to an exact poli- cy, without any attempt at evasion. It promises, not to ‘revise the tariff,’’ but to “‘revise it downward.”’ The wording is so plain and so definite that a child could understand its meaning and intent. Here, briefly, are some of the important promises in the Democratic document: 1.—A tariff for revenue only. Im- mediate revision downward. Trust contoled products to go on the free ist. 2.—Civil and criminal prosecution of trusts. Laws to stop monopoly and stock watering. Amendment to make the Sherman law effective. a 3.—A demand for the ratification of the amendments for an income tax and direct election of senators. ” 4.—Publicity for all recommenda- tions on which presidential appoint- ments are made; for the ownership of newspapers,’ and for all campaign funds in national elections. 5.—Presidential primaries and pop- ular elections of: national committee- men. The use of money by corpora- tions at elections to be made unlawful. 6.—A single term for president. 7.—Supervision of ‘railroad, tele- graph; telephone and express rates. 8.—Revision of the banking laws jall parts-of the state for the Demo- ‘cratic nomination for Judge of the jupreme Court, Division No. 1.
