TRUSTS | FLAYED1 "i Hi a* In (he Platform Adopted "i tl by the Democrats. ?' PROTECTION DENOUNCED. j? ol F Liberty for Filipinos, Election o. rc n Senators by the People and ri a Reduction of the <1 ti Army Imperatively * b Demanded. n p The Democratic party of the United 11 States, in national convention ossein- p bled, declares its devotion to the essentlal principles of the Democratic 0 faith which brings us together in party s< communion. J.; Under them, local self-government " and national unity and prosperity were alike established. They underla d our v independence, tlie structure of our free P republic, and every Democratic exten- J sion from Louisiana to California, and y Texas to Oregon, which preserved faithfully in all the States the tie be- * tween taxation and representation. P They yet Inspire the masses of our w people, guarding Jealously their rights e: and liberties, and cherishing their fra- 0 ternity, peace and orderly develop- ^ ment. They remind us of our duties 0 and responsibilities as citizens and im- k press upon us, particularly at this K time, the necessity of reform and the ? rescue of the administration of govern- 1 ment from the headstrong, arbitrary P and spasmodic methods which distract c business by uncertainty and pervade " the public mind with dread, distrust \ and pertusbation. " FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPLES. The application of these fundamental principles to the living issues of i] the day Is the first step toward the a assured peace, safety and progress of n our nation. Freedom of the press, of a conscience and of speech; equality be- d fore the law of all citizens; right of c trial by jury; freedom of the person de- t fended by the writ of habeas corpus; t, liberty of personal cont ract untrammeled bv sumntmirv l.iwsjr annrnmn/'.v of the civil over military authority; a o well disciplined militia; the separation (j of church and state: economy In ex- u pendltures; low taxes, that laiior may a he lightly burdened; prompt and sacred e fulfillment of public and private obli- r gations; fidelity to treaties; peace and r friendship with all nations; entangling j alliances with none, absolute acqules- ^ ccnce In the will or the majority, the vital principle of republics; these are doctrines which Democracy has established. approved by the nation and they sliould be constantly Invoked and 1 enforced; V CAPITAL AN!) LAUOK. ? We favor enactment and adminis- t tration of laws, giving lal>or a.id capi- v tal Impartially their just rights, Capi- c tal ana labor ought not to be enemies. ?i Each is necessary to the other. Each n has its rights, but the rights of labor a are certainly no less "vested," no less "sacred" and no less "unalienable" a than the rights of capital. 1 CONSTITUTIONAL OUAUANTBKS. Constitutional guarantees are vio- c lated whenever any cit izen is denied f the right to lal>or, acquire and enjoy t firoperty or reside where interests or J: ncfination may determine. Any de- < nial thereof by individuals, organiza- c tlons, or governments should be sum- ? marily reouked and punished. " We deny the right of any executive to disregard or suspend any constitu- t tional privilege or limitation. Obedi- ? ence to the laws and respect for their e requirements are alike the supreme duty of the citizen and the official. e The military should be used only to , support and maintain the law. We . unqualifiedly condemn its employment (1 lur liu; suiuuuiry Damsnmeni. 01 cili- c zens without a trial at or for the con- ? trol of elections. a We approve the measure which pass- f ed the United States senate in 18?0, ( but which a Republican congress lias ever since refused to enact, relating to e contempts in federal courts, and pro- . \ * viding for trial by jury ln.cases of indi- , rect contempt. r rWATKKWAYS. t We favor liberal appropriations for 8 the care and improvements of the wa- c ter ways of tho country. When any rt waterways like the Mississippi river is 1 of sufficient importance to demand 1 special aid of the government, such 8 aid should be extended with a definite plan of continuous work until permanent improvement is secured. ' We oppose the Repbliean policy of ^ starving home development in order f to feed the greed for consequeat and t the appetite for national "prestige" f and display of strength. s ECONOMY OK ADMINISTRATION. ^ g Large reductions can easily lie made j( In the annual expenditures of the gov- v eminent without impairing the efficiency of any branch of the public ser- 0 vice, and we shall insist upon the j strictest economy and frugality com- j patible with vigorous and efficient ? civil, military and naval admiulstra- \ tion as a right of the people, too clear j to be denied or withheld. ? We favor honesty In the puplic ser- a t vice?the enforcement of honesty in ^ the public service and to that end a c thorough legislative investigation of t 1 t.hmn PtPP.lit.lvfi rtpnftrtmnnto r\f tlm government already known to them I with corruption, and the punishment % of ascertained corruptionIsts without t | fear or favor or regard to persons. The c | persistent and deliberate refusal of c I both the senate and house of repre- I I sentatlves to permit such invcstiga- ft tion to be made, demonstrates that 1 ? only by a change in the executive and 1 H in the legislative departments can r SL complete exposure, punishment and I ^ com ction be obtained. yiCDBRAL OOVKHMKNT CONTRACTS. |b| We condemn the action of the Re- t ? publican party in congress in refusing c to prohibit an executive department a from entering into contracts with con- v victcd trusts on unlawful combina- a r tions in restraint of interstate trade, c We believe that one of the best f methods of procuring economy and c honesty in the public service is to a have public officials. from the occu- t pant of the White House down to the ' lowest of them, returned as nearly as c may be to JcfTersonian simplicity of F living. R KXBCUTIVK USURPATION. ? We favor the nomination and elec- ^ tion of a president Imbued with the principles of the constitution who will set his face sternly against executive a usurpation of legislative and judicial ^ functions, whether that usurpation g , be veiled under the guise of executive ? L construction of existing laws, or fj I whether it take refuge in the tryant's i L pleas of necessity or superior wisdom. m. We favor the preservation, so far * A as we can, of an open door for the B world's ooDMBerce in the Orient, with s out anru^^wsary entanglement in tl affairs, and irresponany U here within our jurisdiction. We ;>pose, as fervently as did George Washington himself, an indefinite, irsponsible, discretionary and vague Molutlsm and a policy of colonial exloitatlon, no matter where and by hoin Invoked or exercised; we believe ith Thbmas Jefferson and John darns, that no government lias a glit to make one set of laws for those at home" and another and a different it of laws, aiisolute in their char:ter for those "in the colonies." All len under the American Hag are entled to the protection of the instltuons whose emblem, the Hag is; If ley are inherently unfit for those inJtutlons, then they are Inherently nflt to be members of the American [Xly politic. Wherever there may ext a people incapable of tieing govern1 under American laws, in consoance with the American constitution f that people ought not to be part f the American domain. We Insist that we ought to do for tlie illplnos what we have done already >r the Cubans, and it is our duty to lake that promise now,and upon sultb'.o guarantees of protection to clt:ens of our own and other countries 2sident there at the time of our withrawal, set the Filipino people upon lielr feet, free ana independent to fork out their own destiny. The endeavor of the secretary of war, y pledging the government's endorselent for '^promoters" in the 1'hilipIne Islands to make the I'nited St ates partner in the speculative legislation f the archipelago, which was only emporarily held up by the opposition f the Democratic senators, In the last ission. will, if successful, lead tocnanglements from which it will be difcult to escape. The Democratic party has been, and rill continue to lie, the consistent oponent of that class of tariff legisialon by which certain Interests have j een permitted, through congressional ivor, to draw heavy tribute from ' lie American people. This monstrous erversion of those equal opportunities diich our political Institutions were stablishcd to secure, has caused what nee may have been infant industries 0 become the greatest combinations f capital that the world has ever nown. These especial favorites of the overntnent have, through trust met lids, been converted Into monopolies, hus bringing to an end domestlc cometlt ion, which was the only alleged heck upon the extravagant profits Licit it; |ju:v*i uiu ny iiiu jji uitxii vu . 'hese industrial combinations, by the inancial assistance they can Rive, now ontrol tlie policy of tiic Republican arty. We denounce protection as a rob>ery of the many to enrich the few, nd we favor a tariff limited to the leeds of the government, economically dministereu and so levied as not to liscriminate against any industry, hiss or section, and to the end that he burdens of taxation shall be disributed as equally as possible. We favor a revision and a gradual eduction of the tariff by the friends f its abuses, its extortions and its liscrimtnations, keeping in view the iltimate ends of "equality of burdens ,nd equality of opportunit ies" and the ontltutlonal purpose of raising a cvenue by taxation, to wit: the suptort of the federal government In all ts integrity and virility, but in simplicity. KUSTS AND tlNUWKUI, COM IU NATIONS. We recogni/.e that the gigantic rusts and combinations designed to nable capital to secure more than its ust share in the joint products of apltal and labor, and which have I teen fostered and promoted under Ucmblican rule, are a menace to beneflial compel ion and an obstacle to pcrnanent business prosperity. A private nonopoly is indefensible and intoler,blo* Individual equality of apportunity ,nd free compet ition are essential to a lealthy and commercial prosperity and ,ny trust, combination or monopoly inending to destroy t hese by continuing production, restricting competition or Ixing prices, should be prohibited and punished by law. We especially dclounce rebates and discrimination by ransportation companies as the most otent agency in promoting and trengthening these unlawful conpiracies against trade. We demand an enlargement of the powers of tlie interstate commerce ommission, to the end that the trailing public and shippers of this ountry may have prompt and adquate relief from the abuses to which hey are subjected in the matter of ransportation. We demand a strict nforcemcnt of existing civil and rimltial statutes against all such rusts, combinations and monopolies; ,nd we demand the enactment of such urther legislation as may be necessary o effectually suppress them. Any trust or unlawful combination ngaged in interstate commerce which s monopolizing any branch of busi lessor production, should not he pernltted to transact business outside of he Stato of Its origin. Whenever it hall bo established in any court of ompetent jurisdiction that such nonopolizatlon exists, sucli prohibllon should tie enforced through comirelienstve laws to be enacted on the ubject. 11BCLAMATION OF A1UD LANDS. We congratulate our western cltiens upon the passing of the law :nown as the Newlands irrigation act or the irrigat ion and reclamation of he arid lands of the west; a measure ramed by a Democrat, passed in the enatc by a non-partisan vote and lassed in the house against the oppoitlon of almost all of the Republican eaders by a vote the majority of which fas Democratic. We call attention to this great. Demcratic measure, broad and compreicnslve as It is. working automaticaly throughout all time without further ction of congress, until* the reclamaion is accomplished, reserving the ands reclaimed for home-seekers in mall tracts and rigidly guarding falnst land monopoly as an evidence the policy of domest ic development, ontemplated by the Democratic pary, should It he placed in power.

AMHKICAN CITIZENSHIP. We pledge ourselves to Insist upon he just and lawful protection of our It izens at home and abroad and to use ,11 proper measurestoseeure for them, vhether native born or naturalized, ,nd without distinction of race or reed, the equal protection of laws and trivileges open to them under the ovenants of our treatise of friendship aid commerce; and if under existing reaties the right of travel and sojourn s denied to American citizens or rcognltion is withheld from American >assports by any countries on the round of race or creed, we favor the tcglnning of negotiations with the overnmentof such countries to secure iy treaties the removal of these unjust iscrlmiuations. We dertiand that all over the world duly authenticated passport- issued y the government of the United tates to an American citizen shall be roof of the fact that he is an A merman citizen and shall entitle him to he treatment due him as such. KLl$CTIOX or SENATORS BY rKOl'^K. Vie favor the election of United tates senators by the direct , vote of lie people. STATEHOOD FOK TERRITORIES. j We favor the admission of the terrifies of Oklahoma and the Indian Territory. We also favor the Immediate admission of Arizona and New Mexico as separate States and a territorial government for Alaska and Puerto Rico. We hold that the officials appointed to administer the government of any territory, as well as with the District of Alaska, should be bona tide residents at the thne of their appointment of the territory or district In which their duties are to be performed. condemnation ok polyuamy. We demand the extermination of polygamy within the jurisdiction of the United States and the complete separation of church and state in political affairs. M KHCIIANT MA KINK. Wc denounce the ship sutxildy bill recently passed by the united States as an Iniquitous appropriation of public funds for private purposes and a wasteful, illogical and useless attempt to overcome by subsidy the obstruction 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 u|>on the people and without bounties from tlie public t i t-usury. ItECI 1'itOClT Y. We favor liberal trade agreements with Canada and with peoplesof other countries where they can be entered into with benctit to American Agriculture, manufacturers, mining or commerce. MOKIIOK DOCTRINE. Wc favor the maintcnenec of the Monroe doctrine In its full Integrity. ARMY. We favor the reduction of the army and of army expenditures to the point historically demonstrated to be safe and sufficient. 1'KNBIOKS AND OUR SOL.DIICKS AND ? BAILORS. The democracy would secure to the surviving soldiers and sailors and their dependents, generous pensions, not by an arbitrary executive order, but by legislation, which a grateful people | stand ready to enact. (>ur soldiers and sailors who defended with their lives the constitution and tlie laws have a sacred interest in t He I r just administration. They must therefore share with us t he humiliation . with which we have witnessed the exaltation of court favorites, without distinguishing service over t lie scarred heroes of many battles; and aggrandized by executive appropriations out of the treasury of a prostrate people in violation of the act of "Congress which fixed the compensation or allowance of the military otllccrs. CIVIL BKUVICK. The Democratic party stands coinI mltted to the principle of civil service reform, and we demand their honest, just and Impartial enforcement. ! We denounce t he Republican party I f4r itsL continuous and slnster encroachments upon the spirit and ope! ration o' civil service rules, whereby it has arbitrarily dispensed with examinations for ofilce in the interest of favorites and employed all manner of devices to overreach and set aside the principles upon which the civil service was established. SCHOOL AND UACI5 qiJKSTIONS. The race question has brought countless woes to this country. The calm wisdom of the American people should see to it that it brings no more. To revive the dead and hateful racial and sectional animosities in any part of our common country means confusion, distract ion of business and the reopening of wounds now happily healed. North, south, cast and west have but recently stood together in line of battle from the walls of Pekin to the hills of Santiago and as sharers of a common glory and a common destiny we should share fraternally the common burdens. We therefore deprecate and condemn t he bourbon-like, selfish and narrow spirit of the recent Republican convnnt inn o t f 1ltS<o>irA n?l\i/.h ? l?? v \ a a ts iv/t l UIIIV (l^U, Willi. II III kindle anew t lie embers of racial and sectional strife, and we appeal from it to the sober, common sense and partiotic spirit of the American people. T1IK KRPUHLICAN A DM IN lSTlt ATION. The existing Republican administration has been spasmodic, erratic, sensational, spectaculai and arbitrary. It has mane itself a satire upon the congress, the courts and upon the settled practices and usages of national and nternational law. It summoned the congress into hasty and futile tasks. It made war, which is the sole power of congress, without its authority, thereby usurping one of its fundamental preorgatives. It. violated a plain statute of the United States as well as plain treaty obligations, international usages and constitutional law; and has done so under pretense of executing a great publie policy which could have been more easily efTeccted lawfully, constitutionally and with honor. It forced strained and unnatural constructions upon statutes, usurping judicial interpretation, and substituting congressional enactment decree. It withdrew from congress their customary duties of Investigate I which have heretofore made t he representatives of the people and the States terrors of evil-doers. It conducted a secretive investigation of its own and boasted of a few sample convicts, while it threw a broad coverlet over the bureaus which had been their OhOSOQ tield of operative abuses, and kept In power the superior officers under whose administration the crimes had been committed. 11 ordered assault upon some monopolies, but paralyzed by its tirst victory it tlung out the Hag of truce and cried out that It would not "run amuck" leaving its future purposes beclouded by its vaccillations. APPKAL TO Til K COUNTRY. Conducting the campaign upon this declaration of our principles and purposes, we invoke for our candidates the support, not only of our great and time-honored organization, but also the active assistance of all our fellow citizens, who disregarding past differences upon questions no longer in issue, desire the perpetuation of our constitutional government, as framed and established by the fathers of the republic. Insane Man Holensed. Silas Martin, white, 26 years of age, of Columbus, Ohio, has Just left the AT t .. I - Hi-.i. v 11Kiniti otaie penitentiary, oareiy escaping a 13 year sentence that apparently should never have been given him. Martin was received at the prison last November with two sentences of eight and live vcars each before him. He had been twice convicted of car breaking in James City county. Gov. Montague grantel Martin a conditional pardon on the strong recommendation of the authorities of the Ohio State Insane asylum, at which institution he has been under treatment with a fair prospect of being cured. Martin escaped from the asylum at Columbus two months before he was arrested in Virginia. * Ajce<l People Drowned. At Portland, Oregon, in a cloudburst accompanied by less of life and great damage to property pear Mitchell, in Wheeler county, Mrs. Itethune, aged DO years and Martn Smith, 91 years, were drowned. Twenty-eight houses in Mitchell were destroyed. I, THE CONDITION OF CROPS. Weekly Bulletin Iwuod by Mectlon Director Bauer. The following is the weekly weather and crop bulletin Issued by Section Director Bauer for the week ending 8 a. in., July 11th, which had a mean temperature of 81 degrees, which is about one above normal, due to very even night temperatures and moderately hot days. The extremes were a minimum of 81 at Greenville on the 5th aud a maximum of 91) at Blackville and Yemat-s eon the 7th. There were several local high winds accompanying thunderstorms, most damag ing in a part of Sumter county. The relative humidity was above normal along the coast and normal or below in the interior. The sunshine was generally deficient. There were frequent thunderstorms In the central and northeastern counties throughout the week and over the extreme northwestern ones duiiog the closing days with practically no lain or widely scattered light showers In the Savannah valley from Anderson county southward to Hampton. The weekly amounts ranged from "tram" to over three inches. ()v?. r the gre iter portion of the State the rainfall was ample for all crops, and in parts of (Jhcsterlield, Darlington aud Mail borocountieH it was excessive to an injurious exti nt. The moisture deli ciency appears to be m st injurious In Greenwood, Saluda, Barnwell and Hampton counties, with other localittc s that are suffering. Additional reports indicate that the hailstorm of the 2nd in Marion and York counties was more destructive than at llrst indicated. There were numerous hailstorms on the 7th, but they were destructive over very small, widely separated areas only. The week was generally favorab'e for farmwork and for laying by crops, except In the counties named as having had excessive rains. As a rule crops continue clean and well cultivated though seme places report grassy and weedy fields. In many parts of the State corn is "tiring" owing to insufficient moisture, but where rains occurred the corn crop continues very promising, especially young corn on bottom lands. The majority of tiie reports on cotton indicate further improvement but some deterioration is noted due to both lack of moisture and excessive moisture, causing the plants to yellow shed their foliage and squares. In sects that puncture squares and young bolls have been noted in Greenville and Pickens counties, by some thought to be boll worms, by others to be boll weevils. The plants are blooming freely in places and bolls have been noted in a few localities. Sandy land cotton is better than that on c ay soils, the latter being unseasonaoly small. Sea island cotton has good color and growth and is blooming freely. Tobacco is very promising, with se lecting and curing making fair prog gross. The rains were very beneficial to rice. Melons are ripening generally and shipments are heavy. Stock water still scare in places. Fruit is scarce in the eastern counties and plentiful in tiie western ones.

There are may different kinds of Piles, but if you get the genuine and original Witch lla/.e) Salve made by M. G. DeWitt & Co., of Chicago, a cure Is certain. II. A. 'Pisdale, of Summerton, S.

The Washington weather bureau's weekly summary of crop conditions says: Cotton lias grown rapidly throughout the cotton belt, complaints of too rapid growth being received from portions of the rent'a districts where the crop is suffering for cultivation. In portions of the wastern districts cotton is also in need of cultivation and some shedding is reported from portions of Texas and Carolina. Over the greater pirt of Texas, however, and in the eastern districts, the crop is in a good stat of cultivation, and comparativel) little damage from insects Is reported, except in Texas, where boll weevils are increasing and becoming more destructive in the southwestern counties. The weather conditions have been highly favorable for tobacco which is in a thrifty condition in ail the important tobacco States. I)r. E. Norton ask the readers of this paper who are sutTering with indigestion or dyspepsia to call on them at once and get a l>ottle of Kodol Dyspepsia Cure.

Smith, rector of Christ's Church cathedral, in whom the woman is said to have contlded to some extent, her correct name Is Mrs. M. K. Dantes of either New York or Washington. Upon a promise of secrecy, the woman told the Rev. Mr. Smith that her mother's name Is Mrs. Martha Wiggins and that she lives atJLJl K street, N. W., Washington, 1). C. When pressed by Mr. Smith for her reasons for using an assumed name, Mrs. Smith or Mrs. Dantes refised to give any, remarking that she had personal reasons for not wishing to be known by her correct name. INQUIRY MADK. Inquiry at 111 K street, where Mrs. Martha Wiggins, the mother of Mrs. M. K. Dantes, Is said to have lived, disclosed ti e fact that Mrs. Wiggins and a daughter, Miss Kitty Wiggins, lived in the house for several years. The daughter left there about a year ago last November and the mother the following April. A neighbor says she believed Mrs. Wiggins went to Kent, a suburb of Norfolk, Ya., on leaving Washington. It was understood that the daughter was going away to be married. LIYKI) IN NORFOLK. Mrs. M. K. Dantes left here recently for St. Louis, where it was understood she was to be married.
