The following j 8 th«* platform adopted at St. T.ouis : The Democratic party of the Unit ed States in national convention as sembled. renews this pledge of its fidelity to the Democratic faith and reaffirms the platform adopted by its representatives in tbe convention of 1884. and eudorses the views express ed by President Clevland in his last earnest message to Congress a 3 the eorrect interpretation of that plat form upon the question of tariff re duetion-. and also endorses the efforts of our Democratic representatives in Congress to secure reduction of ex cessive taxation. Among its principles of party faith are the maintenance of the indissolu ble union of free and indestiuctible States, now about to enter upon its second eentur.y of unexampled pro gross and renown: devotion to the plan of government regulated by the written constitution, strictly Bpecify iDg 6very granted potter and express ly reserving to the States or the people the entire ungranted residue of power-, the encouragement of a jealous popular vigilance, directed toward all who have been chosen for brief terms to enact and execute laws, and are charged with the duty of preserving peace, insuring equality and establishing justice. The Democratic parly welcomes active scrutiny of tbe administration of the executive power which, four years ago, was committed to its trust in the election of Grover Clevland President of the United States, and challenges the most searching in quiry concerning its fidelity and de votion to the pledges which then in vited the suffrages of the people. During the most critical period of our financial affairs, resulting from overtaxation, the public debt unmat ured, it has, by the adoption of a wise and conservative course, not only avoided disaster but greatly prornot ed the prosperity of the people- It Las reversed the improvident and unwise policy of tbe Republican par ty Touching the public domaiD, and has Reclaimed from corporations and syndicates, alien and domestic, and restored to the people nearly one hundred million acres of land, to be sacredly held as homesteads for our citizens. While carefully guarding the inter ests of taxpayers and conforming strictly to the principles of justice and eqnity, has paid out more for pensions and bounties to soldiers and sailors of tbe republic than waB ever paid before during an equal pe riod. It has adopted and consistently pur sued a firm and prudent foreign poli cy, preserving peace with all nations while scrupulously maintaining all rights ;nd interests of our own gov ernmeot and people at home and abroad. The exclusion from our shore of Chinese labor has been effectually secured under the provision of a treaty, the operation of which has been postponed by the action of the Republicans in the Senate. Honest reform in the civil service has been inaugurated and maintained by President Cleveland, and be ba8 brought the public service to the highest standard of efficiency, not only by rule and precept, but by ex ample of bis own untiring and unself isk administration of public affairs. In every branch and department of the government under Democratic control the rights and welfare of all tbe people have been guarded and defended,every public intererst been protected and the equality of all our citizens before tbe law, without re gard to race or color, has been stpad fastlv maintained- Upon its record, thus exhib ted, and upon the pledge of a con tin u ance to the people of the benefits of government tbua administued, tbe Democracy invokes a renewal of popnlar trust by the re-election of the chief magistrate whn has been faithful,able and prudent; we invoke in addition to that trust, the transfer also to the Democracy of tbe entile legislative power. The Republican party, controlling the Senate and resisting in both Houses of Congress reformation of the unjust and unequal tax laws which have outlasted the necessities of war and are now undermining the abuudance of long peace, deny the people eqnity before the law and the fairness and justice which arc their ■ right. The cry of American labor for a better share in the rewards ol industry is stifled with false pretense; enterprise is fettered and bound down to home markets; and capital is restricted by the unjust laws which can neither be properly amend ed or repealed. The Democratic par^y will con tinue, with all the power confided to it, in the struggle to reform these laws in accordance with the pledges of its platform, indorsed at tbe bal¬ lot box by tbe suffrages of the peo pie. Of all the industrious freemen of our land, an immense majority, in clnding every tiller of the soil, gain no advantage from excessive tax laws, but the price of nearly every, thing they buy is increased by the favoritism of the unequal system of tax legislation. All unnecessary taxation is unjust taxation. It is repugnant to the creed ol Democracy that by such taxation the cost of the necessaries of life should be unjustifiably increased to all our people, and judged by Democratic principles, the interests of the peo pic are betrayed when, by unneces sary taxation, trusts and combinations arc permitted to exi&t, which, while unduly enriching the few that com¬ bine, rob the body of our citizens by depriving them of benefits of nation al competition. Every Democratic rule of government actiou is violated when, through unnecessary taxation, a vast sum of money far beyond tbe needs of economical administration is drawn from tbe people and the channels of trade and accumulated as a demoralizing surplus in tbe nation al treasury. The money now lying idle in tbe federal treasury amounts to more than one hundred and twenty five millions, and the surplus collect ed is reaching tbe sum ot more than sixty millions annually. Debaii bed by this immense temp tatijn, tbe remedy of the RepuWi can party is to meet and exhaust by extravagant taxation- The Demo cratic policy is to enforce frugality in public expert-, and abolish unnees- 8ary taxation. Our established do¬ mestic industries and enterprises should not, and need not, be t* dangared by the reduction and cor¬ rection of the burdens of taxation. On tbe contrary, fair and careful re¬ vision of our tax laws, with due al lowance for the difference between wages ol American and foreign labor must promote and encourage every branch of such industries and enter¬ prises by giving them assurances of an extended market and steady aud continuous operations. The inter ests of American labor, which should in no even, be neglected, and the re vision of our tax laws, as contempia ted by tbe Democratic party, should promote the advantage ol such labor by cheapening the cost of the ncees saries of life in the horns of every working man and at the same time securing to him steady remunerative employment. Upon this question of tariff reform, so closely concerning every phase of our national life and upon every ques tion involved in the problem of good government, the Democratic party submits its principles and professions to tbe intelligent suffrages of the American people. ......... mm m Subscribe for the New* NEW YORK! -V'-W - .-s-jt-K CAPT.
