![ ASSAILS G. O. P. PLATFORM.
Nebraskan Declares that the Chicago
Platform is a Silent Repudiation
of Almost Every One of the
Roosevelt Reform Prin
i ciples.
Lincoln, Neb., June 23.?Denouncing
th<* Republican plat from as n silent
repudiation oi almost every
Rooseveltinn principle, W. J. Bryan
today completed an editorial summary
of tlie work of the Chicago conven-,
tion.
"Have you read the Republican
plat from? If you have not you ought
to read it. The contest in the Republican
party between the reformer
and stand-patter is for the present
at an end, with the stand-patter in
the saddle. The platform is a silent
repudiation of nearly every promise
of reform that the president and his
followers have given to the country.
It begins with an eulogy of the president.
'At no other time since the
days of Lincoln' according to the
pin norm, "lias there been sneli mighty
progress in those ideals of government
which make for justice, equally
and fair dealing among men.'
kVilhout asking why the "Republican
>nrty has held office and divided the
>fficinl salaries among its partisans so
ong; without givinw us a president
.vho represented 'the best aims and
worthiest purpose of the people'
without asking why 110 Republican
president in recent days 'has lifted
American manhood to a noble sense
:>f duty and obligation,' we may ask
why it is that the Republican contention
spends so much time on praising
the president *'nd gives so little
nttention to the litic endorsement
of tilings I10 has a?i.ocated.
"Rut tho president must not feel
Mint ho is the only Republican deserving
of praise. The recent congresses,

lender of the minority, tinio
and time again called upon the Republicans
to furnish thirty votes in
support of the president's policies
and pledged the Democratic minority
to furnish the remaining number of
votes necessary to carry oul several
of the president's recommendations,
and yet. the men who wrote the platform
presume upon the ignorance of
the public and complain that the filibuster
prevented the enactment of
many wholsorne and progressive laws.'
11 The writers of ihe platform 'especially
commend the passage of the
emergency currency bill'?a bill
which combined two Pea lures, one of
which had been rejected by the senate
and Ihe oilier by the house. So
long as there was a chance for a discussion
there was sufiieieut Republican
opposition to condemn both features
of the bill, but u.ider the influence
of a few financiers Ihe lull was
rushed through during the closing
hours with all of the bad features restored
and all of the good ones eliminated.
"The plank demanding a permanent
change in Ihe currency system is
general enough o p<T?":
lican orators to advocate in each section
of the country the system most
popular there, and sullicient!y mdefiTiito
to enable eongross to do whatever
it pleases or nothing without
violating any pledge.
"The trust plank must prove a
disappointment to every Republican
who lias eome to understand the iniquity
of the trusts. There is a demand
for rigid enforcement of the
law; there is no suggestion thai the
criminal clause, which lias not yet
brought (he trust malefactor within
the walls of a penitentiary, should be
called into use. The platform says:
1 Law can be strengthened by amendments
which will enlarge the supervision
of the general government, but
these amendments are not. mentioned
t and there is nothing in this plank of
the platform that can be appealed to
to secure any real improvement in the
law. If the president with all of his
strenuosity has not. been able to enforce
the criminal law against a single
trust, what progress can be made
wifbm such ai;/^anti-trust plank infn
the Republican platform'?
e uv a plank in the platform
of such legislation and superis
'will prevent the future
over issue of stocks ana bonds by in
tor-State carriers.' This is good, bu
it is coupled with advocacy of a pool
iug arrangement which makes a larg
concession to the railroads witliou
exacting any security to the public
for the convention voted down a
amendment proposed by Senator Ln
Follettc's followers, authorizing th
enlargement of the powers of the in
ter-State commerce commission.
The negro comes in for his quadren
nial quota of taffy, lie is reminde*
that the Ropublican party gave hit
freedom and citizenship, and in tlii
is the implied warning that he mus
not use his citizenship against tli
party- that gave it to him. The Re
publican party has made politica
capital out of the negro for mor
than a third of a century. In man;
of the close Slates, rt has won it
elections by negro votes, and in th
States where it has had power it ha
never treated the m?gro any bette
than he has been tivared by the Do
mocrats. In other words in th
Northern States the Democrats with
out receiving anv support from t.h
negro vote, have been as friendly t<
him as the Republicans. In tli
South the Democrats have furnishe<
a large part of the money to provid
that education of which the Republi
can platform boasts. And yet, i;
each recurring eampntgn, the Repul
lican leaders have attempted to ap
peal to the prejudices of the negro b;
parading before him the restriction
placed upon suffrage in some of th
Southern States. Why is it that th
Republican leaders arc only solicj
tons about the colored man wjie
voting times comes?"
