POLITICS IN STATES Texas Democrats Reject Bailey’s Anti-Expansion Resolutions. Financial and Tariff Planks of the Indiana Platform. a CANDIDATES FOR CONGRESS Congressman J. W. Bailey suffered a se- vere defeat in the state democratic con- vention at Galveston, Texas, yesterday, his resolutions in opposition to territorial expansion being snowed under. There had been an all-night wrangle in the resolutions committee, Senator Chilton leading the op- position to Bailey. The resolutions committee finally rejected Bailey's resolutions, and he thereupon oifer- ed them to the convention. A motion to table Mr. Bailey's substitute was made at midnight, and the vote in favor of the motion stood 697 to 334. The report of the platform committee relating to national affairs was made as follows: 1. We indorse in every particular the platform adopted by the democratic na- tional convention at Chicago in 1896. 2. We denounce the republican party for the passage of the Dingley tariff. 8. The war must not obscure the money question. 4. We denounce the revenue bill passed by the republican party fer the gross in- equalities therein, both the tax imposed uae and the exemptions made. Clause 6. We will support the President in con- ducting the war. 7. We favor the generous development of the American navy. 8. We favor the construction and control of the Nicaragua canal by the United States. Their Cuban Polics. 9. That we favor the carrying out of the letter and spirit of the resolutions under which we intervened in Cuba, and w+ sist that the Cubans shall be in- permitted j to establish an independent government of their own; but in the event that the peo- ple of that island shall hereafter desirr to be annexed to this country and the terms of the annexation can be satisfac- torily arranged between the two govern- ments, we will annex Cuba as a part of the territory of the United States. 10. We favor uisition of Porto Rico and ions in the fave all it w 1. ffirm our faith in the ne and oppose the annexation continued retention of the Philipp ands or any territory upon the e hemisphere. Clause 12 opposes any increase in the ding army, and 13 declares for Bryan 00. Monroe doctr or. for clauses 9 and 10 Con- e following: believe that’a colonial policy is con- trary to the theory of this government, and we are opposed to the acquisition of any territory inhabited by a people who are incapable of self-government, because we hold the right of local self-government to be the basic principles of our republic. “We are opposed to the acquisition of any territory the government or control of which will necessitate an increase in the standing army of the United States. We reaffirm the declaration of Thomas Jeffer- son that all governments derive their just powers from the consent of the governed; and we are opposed to the establishment of any government anywhere by the United States without the consent of the people to be governed.” Goy. Culberson and ex-Gov. Hogg op- posed Bailey's resolutions, which were over- whelmingly defeated after a long wrangle. Fairbanks to Indianians. The republicans of Indiana completed the organization of their state convention at Indianapolis yesterday afternoon and ad- journed till today, when nominations will be made. In taking the gayel as a perma- nent chairman United States Senator Chas. W. Fairbanks said in part: “When we were last assembled, two years ago, distress and commercial paralysis were on every hand. Our people were enervated and our progress seemed dead, but with the restoration of the republican party to power in 1897 an era of prosperity was ush- ered in. It was the natural and logical re- sult of the restoration of the republican party to power and the re-establishment of. republican principles in the public admin- istration.” ‘The senator said concerning the war: “We are proud of the administration of William McKinley. He has met every de- mand upon him th a broad and compre- hensive statesmanship and sought to lead our country in the way f peace, fraterni- ty, prosperity and honor.” The platform heartily indorses every act of the present national administration. The Financial Plank. The financial plank says: “The r2publicans of Indiana are unre- servedly for sound money, and are there- fore opposed to the heresy to which the democratic party is wedded—of the free and unlimited coinage of both gold and silver at the ratio of 16 to 1—which we regard as absolutely certain to debase our money and destroy our private and public credit and cause general business disaster.

Florida Democrats. The state democratic convention com- pleted its labors at Orlando, Fla., yester- day, and for the first time in many years not a contest was filed. All the nomina- tions were made by acclamation except those of three railroad commissioners. two ballots being necessary to choose trom the dozen candidates entered. Those ramed were T. M. Day and J. M. Bryan, incum- bents, and John L, Morgan. The platform reaffirms that of Chicago, territorial expansion was condemned and the army and navy were congratulated for their victories, as was also Commodore Schley for the destruction of the fleet of Admiral Cervera.
