T, C ACeiarSt., H«. York Democratic Platform. The platform in full is as follows: “Resolved, first, that the admin¬ istration of the present executive of affairs of the state of Georgia deser ves the hearty commendation of the people of the whole state. “Resolved, second, that the peo¬ ple of Georgia are indebted to the democratic party for the present system of public schools, that p'aces the means of an elementary educa¬ tion within the reach of every child of the commonwealth, and we pledge the party to the extension and the perfection of the system. ,‘Resolved, third. That wo deplore ^ denoimce lync hings and favor the enactment ot such laws as will effectually prevent the same. ‘Rosolved, fourth, That the democrat ic party of Georgia, through properly accredited delegates, in convention as¬ sembled, hereby declares its devotion to that time-honored doctrine of pure deni oeratie faith which demands that, the primarv money of the country shall lie the gold and silver coinage of the con sitution. and which favors a circulating medium convertible into such money without loss.’ “Resolved, tiftli, We demand the free and unlimited coinage of both silver and gold, independent of the act of any other government, at the ratio of 10 parts of silver to 1 of gold, and ttint both shall be legal tender far the pay¬ ment of all debts and dues both pub¬ lic and private. sixth, That “Resolved, policy we whiob eon demn a financial necessitates the increase of the bonded debt of the country in time of peace, to maintain a gold reserve, or to pav the current expenses of the government. We also condemn a policy which seeks to retire the greenbacks and treasury notes, as they constitute an absolutely safe circulating medium backed based by on the gold and silver coin and 8ucli poli en¬ tire wealth of the country. a cy would not only intensify the pres¬ ent evil of contraction, but place the exclusive right to issue a circulating medium ‘in the control of a concentra¬ ted monev power and above the laws and the will of the people—and foster the federalildoctrine of centralization and class government through finan¬ cial control, a doctrine which is a standing menace to our republican institutions and the liberties of the people and we demand the repeal of all laws which cloths a secretary of the treasury with the more than im bonds and . perial power to issue in¬ crease the public debt at bis will and pleasure without specific authority from congress.” “Resolved, seventh. That we favor the payment of the public debt as rapidly as practicable. All moneys drawn from the people by taxation, except so much as is requisite for the necessities of the government eco nomically administered, should be honestly _ „ applied . to t0 such , ncb py andwhec the obli s «iious »' lt6 G face, “ , "°T,Mru, or S d.r 11” tto, were issued provides, that they arc payable in coin or in dollars, suMr obligations should be paid in gold or standard silver coin, at I he con¬ venience of the government and not at the option of the holder of the obliaa ions. ■‘Resolved, eighth, That we favor a. tariff for revenue only to pay the debts and expenses of the govern ment. econo mica ly administered “Resolved, ninth That we favor the repeal of the unconstitu¬ tional tax upon state bank is-tns. “Resolved, tenth, That we earnes¬ tly advocate the adoption of the con stitutional amendment which will authorize the collection of agraduated income tax. “Resolved, eleventh, That in pie sen ting the foregoing declaration of principals and policies, the democratic party of Georgia most cordially invites all voters, irreS' pective of party affiliations, to join us in our effort to give relief to the people.” The resolution offered by Mr. Fleming, of Richmond, after the adoption of the platform, with ref¬ erence to increasing the Supreme court justices was as ’follows; “Whereas, The supreme court of Georgia as now constituted, with three Judges, finds it impossible to give proper consideration to the vastly increased volume of business necessitating the deciding of cases without oral argument, a right which ought not to be abridged and which has alvvay been jea'ously guar ded by the courts and the people as essential to the due administration of justice; and, “Whereas. The general assembly, at its last session, did ny more than a two-thirds vote of each house re commeud an amendment to the con> stitution of the stale increasing the number of Judges to six and placing the election of all the supreme court Judges in the hands of the peop'e, instead of the legislature, and pro¬ viding for the court to sit either in bench or in divisions of three judges each, as the inportance and difficulty of cases may tequire, thus increas¬ ing greatlv the ability of tho courts to dispatch work, and also giving increased dignity an 1 authority to the court a> a legal tribunal; there¬ fore, be it. “Resolved, That, recognizing- the necessity of the situation and the propriety of lifting the judiciary as far as posiblo above mere party strife we recommend the adoption of said constitutional amendment at the polls in October, and call upon all voters of the state to support it as a patri¬ otic duty, irrespective of party lines, it being a subject in which all classes of our people are vitally interested.” Profitable Publicity. The local paper is for local readers. It reaches nobody else, and is confined to the peo¬ ple of the town or city, and the surrounding country . Its readers live within a few miles of its place of issue, and depend upon tho local stores for evrything they eat and drink, for about everything they wear, and for nearly everything they use. The circulars mailed, or de¬ livered, to the local homes, or distributed upon the streets, may not be read, but the local advertisement in the local news¬ paper is read.

The local newspaper is the only medium that is indispens¬ able to the family, and to the man and woman of homo and character. The local newspaper enters the home, and may he the only medium read aud re-read by every member of the family. The advertisement in the lo¬ cal newspaper, per copy printed, is worth from twice to ten times as much as any other meth¬ od of local advertising. Other mediums may be of val¬ ue; advertising in the local news¬ paper must he of value. The advertisement not only connects possible customers with sellers, it brings probable customers iu direct touch with the goods advertised. . All local advertisers may not bo suco^ful , but thqre never NO. 26 was a successful retailer who wasn’t an extensive advertiser in local newspapers. —Ex. A poll made by the World shows that Horace Boies of Iowa, is still leading silver candidates for President, as lie was three weeks ago, when the World’s last poll was made. He has IIS votes pledged to him. and is the second choice of nearly 500 delegates. Gov. Altgeld, of Illinois, is sobered by the strong tight tho sound money Democrats are making and is already talking of a < l com pro mise bimetallic platform,” Sen¬ ator Teller has few friends among the Democratic delegate* and there is no possibility of his nomination by the Chicago con vention. lie will, therefore, be nominated by the Populist aud silver Republicans, who claim that he will carry all the silver States against any Deni ocrat who can be named —New York Woild.
