Democrats' motto must be, "A
private monopoly is indefensible
and intolerable.” Provisions must
be made to imprison, not merely
fine, law breaking capitalists.
Protective tariff has been fruit

Free trade, optional in its details
with the president, could be made
the most effective weapon with
which to fight the trusts.
Mr. lfiyan declares that the un
looked-for and unprecedented in
crease in the production of gold
has enabled the Democratic party
to present a united front on the
money question.
Congress should meet immedi
ately after elections—not thirteen
months later, as at present. Unit
ed States senators should be chosen
by popular vote.
The United States must sooner
or later adopt income tax. Burdens
of government should be divided
proportionately among the coun
try’s people.
Railroads should be made the
property of the government. The
Federal government should con
trol the trunk lines and the vari

is favored as temporary remedy.
