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

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,

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

ontemplated by the Democratic pary,
should It he placed in power.

AMHKICAN CITIZENSHIP.
We pledge ourselves to Insist upon

It izens at home and abroad and to use
,11 proper measurestoseeure for them,
vhether native born or naturalized,

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

KLl$CTIOX or SENATORS BY rKOl'^K.
Vie favor the election of United
tates senators by the direct , vote of

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

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.

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.

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.

SNt)S HER OWN LIFE.
Woman'* Dead Body Found In Ht.
Lk>uIh Hotel.
The dead body of a fashionably
dressed woman was found in a room
of the St. Louis Hotel Milton, Wednesday,
where she reflate'ed July 7 as |
"Mrs. M. Smith of New York." Two
empty bottles were found by the side
of the bed. One that contained Rome
drug that has not yet been identified
and the other alcohol.
From statements made by ltev. Allen
lv. 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. She is
a s'ster in-law of K. C. Hathaway,
vice president and general manager of
the Norfolk Railway and Light company,
at whose house her mother,

Are due to Indigestion. Ninety-nine of every
one hundred people who have heart trouble
can remember when it was simple indigestion.

which fails of perfect digestion ferments and
swellsthc stomach, puffing it up against the
heart. This Interferes with the action of
the heart, and In the course of time that
delicate but vital organ becomes diseased.

trouble and was In a bad state as I had heart trouble i

months and It cured me,
