LOUIS, July 7.—The sub-commit- tee of the committee on resolutions spent the entire day until 5 o'clock in perfecting the details of the Democratic platform, concluding at that hour with the adoption of a gold standard plank. The plank was voted upon during the absence of Bryan and Congressman Williams and the ballot stood 7 to 3, the affirmative votes being cast by Daniel, Hill, Pattison, Hamlin, Cable, Poe and Davis and the negative votes by Dubois, Shively and Newlands. The understanding was that if Bryan and Williams had been present they would have cast their votes in the negative, thus bringing the opposition vote to. five.

They yet inepire the masses of our people, guarding jealously their rights and liberties and cherishing their fraternity, peace and orderly development. They remind us of our duties and responsibilities as citizens and impress upon us, particularly at this time, the necessity of reform and the rescue of the ad- | ministration of government from ~the head- strong, arbitrary and spasmodic methods which distract business by uncertainty and pervade the public mind with dread, distrust and per- turbation, | The application of these fundamental prin- ciples to the living issues of the day consti- | tutes the first step toward the assured peace, | safety and progress of our natlon. Freedom | of the press. of consclence and of speech; | equality before the law of all citizens; the | Tight of trial by jury: freedom of the person defended by the writ of habeas corpus; liberty of bersonal contract untrammeled by sump- | tuary jaws: the supremacy of the civil over | military; @' well-disciplined militia; the sep- aration of church and state; economy in ex- | penditures; low taxes, that labor may be lightly burdened; the prompt and sacred fulfill- | ment of private obligations; fidelity to treaties; | peace and friendship with all nations, en- | tangling alliances with none; adequate acquies- | cence in the will of the majority, the vital | principle of _republics—these are doctrines which Democracy has established as proverbs of the nation and they should be constantly in- voked, preached and enforced, ECONOMICAL GOVERNMENT. 1. Large reductions ean readily be made in | the annual expenditure of the Government | without impairing the efficlency of any branch | of the public service. and we shall insist upo the strictest economy and frugality compatibl with vigorous and efficient civil, military and | naval administration as a right of the people | 100 clear to be dented or withheld 2. The enforcement ot honesty in the public service and thorough legislative investigation of those departments of the Government al- ready kmown to teem with corruption, as well as other departments suspected of harboring | ruption and the punishment of ascertained ruptionists without fear or favor or regard | . The persistent and deliberate re- sl of the Senate and House of Representa- | tives to permit such investigation to be made | by either branch of Congress demonstrates that | only by a change in the executive can com-¢ plete exposure and punishment of corruption be obtained. The Government should not per- mit itself {o be robbed by entering into con- s with convicted trusts or unlawful com- birations in restraint of interstate trade. We believe that one of the best methods of pro- | curing economy and honesty in the public service is to have public officials return as nearly as may be to Jeffersonian simplicity of_livinz. 3. Wa favor the nomination and election of ‘a President tramed in the ways of the cunstitution, who shall place his face sternly against corruption of legislation and judicial tunctions, whether veiled under the guise of executive cobstruction of existing laws or whether it take refuge in the assertion of superior whims. 4. The Democratic party ha® been and will | eortinue to be the consistent opponent of that class of tariff legislation by which certain in- dividuals have been permitted, through Con- | gressional favor, to draw a heavy tribute from the American people. This monstrous per- version of those equal opportunities which our | institutions were established to secure has used what may once have been Infant in- dustries to become the greatest combinations of_canital that the world has ever known These publicly favored enterprises have been converted into monopolies, thus bringing to an end domestic comvetition, which was the only check upon the extravagant profits made possible by the protective system. These in- dustrial combinations, by the financial assist- ance they can give, now control the policy of the Republican party REVISION OF THE TARIFF.

MERCHANT MARINE. We denounce the ship subsidy bill recently passed by the United States Senate as in- lquitous appropriation of public funds for pri- vate purposes and a wasteful, lllogical and useless attempt to overcome by subsidy ob- structions raised by Republican legislation to the growth and development of American commerce on the sea. We favor the upbuilding of a merchant marine without new or additional burdens upon the people and without bountles from the public treasury. The Democratic party stands committed to | the principles of civil service reform and we demand their honest, just and impartial en- forcement. We denounce the Republican party for its continuous encroachment upon the spirit and operation of eivil service rules, whereby it has arbitrarily dispensed with examinations for office in the interests of favorites and em- ployed all manner of devices to overreach and et aside the principies upon which the civil service was established. We demand the extermination of polygamy within the jurisdlction of the United States and the complete eeparation of church and airs. our Western citizens upon measure known as the 6 of the Newlands Ifrigation act for the irrigation and reclamation of the arid lands of the West—a measure framed by a Democrat, passed in the Senate by a non-partisan vote and passed in the House against the opposition of almost all the Republican leaders by a vote the majority of which was Democratic. We call attention to this great Democratic N capable. of reclamation s’ accomplished, re- Serving the lands reclaimed for homeseekers in small tracts and rigidly guarding against land monopoly, as an cvidence of the policy of domestic ' development contemplated by the Democratic party, should it be placed in power. We favor the’ preservation, so far as we can. of an open door for the world's com- merce in the Orlent without unnecessary en- tanglements in Oriental and Eurcpean affairs and without arbitrary unlimited. irresponsibls and absolute government anywhere within our realms. We oppose as fervently. as did George Washington himself an indefinitc, irresponsible, discretionary and vague absolutism and a policy of colonial exploit- ation, no matter where or by whom invoked or exercised: We believe, with Thomas Jcfferson and John Adams, that no government has a right to make one set of laws for those ‘at | home'" and another and a different set of laws, abeolute in their character, for those “in the colonies.”” All men under'the American flag are entitled to the prootection of the institu- tions whose emblein tke flag is; if they are in- herently ucfit for those institutions then they are inherently unfit to be members of the American body politic. Wherever there may exist a people incapable of being governed un- der American laws, in econsonance with the American constitution, the territory of that people ought not to be part of the American domain. & We insist we ought to do for the Filipinos what we have already done for the Cubans and it Is our intent as soon as it can be done wigely and safely for the Filipinos themselves, and after amicable arrangements with them concerning naval stations, coaling stations and | trade relations and upon suitable guarantees of protection to all national and internation- al interests to gettle the people upon their feet, free and independent.

Goodschalk, United States Consul at Guayaquil. Ecuador. The big rep- tiles have a failing for monkeys and these agile little pets must keep a con- stant lookout for them. If Jocko drops into a doze he is likely to *“wake up dead.” On the occasion-with which the story deals a monkey’s life was saved by the picture of the ##herican eagle. The consulate sign all over the world is a fine reproduction of the king of birds in full color, with outspread wings. A new sign had just been received and was waiting on a chair inside the room. A big boa constrictor chased the house monkey across the yard and through the open window. Jocko was making a good race, but a losing one. He was in the corner quaking with fear and very near to death’s door when the pursuer confronted the pic- ture of the eagle in its menacing atti- tude. A snake fears eagles even more than it craves monkeys and that par- Aicular reptile turned tail and went out of the window as quickly as if the devil were after it. That monkey was a smart monkey and now whenever it wants to take a nap it goes to roost over the picture of the eagle.—Chicago Chronicle. —————— There is one leper for every 500 of the world’s population. / THE DAY'S DEAD.

NEW YORK, July 7.—The World has the following from St. Louis: ““W. R. Hearst’s high tide in the con- vention will show not more than 150 | votes, and probably desertions between |now and the voting will lower these | figures. One hundred and fifty votes will be the net result of a campaign | expenditure of $1,400,000 in round num- bers. Until the time the caravan of Hearst hoomers reached St. Louis the campaign had cost the Californian $100,000 short of the foregoing sum, and |in admitting the heavy outlay Hearst's i friends said that he expected to spend $100,000 here. Comparing expenses and net returns, it will be seen that each | vote in the convention will have cost Mr. Hearst about $9333. “The extraordinary cost is attribut- jed to the fact that Mr. Hearst is a i novice in politics and to the further | fact that his managers and advisers are for the most part green hands in the political battlefield. While a con- gregation of personal friends, newspa- per employers and mercenaries have essayed practical politics, considering money the root of office, they are said to have signally failed when met by political wisdom with age on it. “One instance is pointed out as indi- | S cating the supernatural political knowledge of Hearst's most active lieutenant. This clever and robust young man went to see a hard-faced | Tammany leader to ‘arrange things.'| He saild he wanted to arrange a deal | whereby if Tammany would throw its strength to Hearst in the early ballot- ing, when it became evident that Hearst could not win, the Hearst forces would be thrown to a Tammany-can- didate. “‘Quit your kiddin'’ said the tiger | henchman. ‘Don’t you know that the New York delegation is instructed for Parker, and we are bound by the unit rule? Wake up, Willie." " “The amount of money spent by Mr. | Hearst at the finish will represent ap- the e | proximately sum for which he ew York newspapers. How much of this money was actual- ly spent in endeavoring to further the candidate’s interests will never be | known. It is computed by wise ones | that many hundreds of thousands of doliars have not yet been spent at all, though separated forever from Mr. | Hearst. ! “It is said that Hearst has in many | instances been too trusting with his | money and his confidences and that | [he has often been given what is known as the ‘dinky dirk.""” sy s B TAMMANY IS RESIGNED. Members Make Arrangements to Re- turn to New York To-Night. ST. LOUIS, July 7.—Tammany is jarranging to start for home to-mor- | row night and that is taken as an in- | dication of resignation on their part | ‘m the programme arranged by the | Parker men. Former Lieutenant Governor Shee- | han held ecourt to-night as usual, | many delegation hea coming to see | him and the animation at his quar- ters was in great contrast to the quiet | |at Tamamny.

Indeed, the | impression is general that in spite of | Senator Hill's desire to allow the first | | ballot to pass it will develop 9nmlghl votes to nominate. | Superior BOLO-STANDARD PLANK REPUBLICANS ISSUE 4 CALL County Committee Decides Uron Plans for Primaries and a Loeal Convention TO APPOINT DELEGATES Representatives, Those From Outside Distriets, to Be Chosen Without Election Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 1018 Broadway, July 7 The Republican County Central Com- mittee this afternoon issued a call for a county nominating convention, to be held In Oakland August 20. This body will name the legislative and su- pervisorial candidates to be voted for at the November election. The call adopted provides for 283 delegates from the seven Assembly districts, of whom 66, from points outside of Oakland. Berkeley and Alameda, will be ap- pointed by the committee. The ap- pointed delegates will come from dis tricts not included within the manda- tory provisions of the primary election law. The call also provides for the election of delegates on August 9 under the State primary law. The call was adopted by a vote of thirteen to seven the opposition to it being led by Dr. C. L. Tisdale and J. B. Lanktree, com- mitteemen from Alameda. Clarence Crowell, chairman of the County Commitee, presided and George 8. Pierce was secretary. When the ca and petition were presented and read Dr. Tisdale asked why the call pro- vided for the appointment of delegates in the outside districts. Chairman Crowell replied that this was follow ing the action of the Republican Con- gressional Committee. The appointment of delegates to the county convention is based on one dele- gate to each fifty votes cast for Geor C. Pardee for Gevernor. Under the call the delegates will be apportioned as follows: Forty-sixth Assembly appointed District—48 delegates Forty-seventh District Alameda City blanketed, 36 delegates. Forty-eighth District — Portion _of _ Sixth Ward 11 delegates portions of Fourt Fifth and Sixth wards, 2 elegates; total, 36 delegates Forty-ninth District—Follor g ward lines, except Emeryville, 35 d = Fiftieth Distric Following Senatorial district lines, delegates Supervisorial Fifty - first District nth Ward Brooklyn Township outside. lelegates Fifty-second _District—Ail of Berkel part of First Ward, with Pledmont mont and Ocean View, 45 delegates; total 2S. delcgates.
