STRONG PLATFORM
FOR SEVENTH DISTRICT
, The following resolutions were re
ported and unanimously adopted:
“The Democratic party of the Sev

plares its abiding faith in the doc

taught by its great leaders and ex
emplars,
“A government of the people by
the people, should play no favorites,
but give equal and exact justice and
bpportunities to all. Governmental
favoritiem and all laws that are, or
Inay be used by individuale or
bwnporations for thelr special hen-
Lflt at the expense of the masses are
uafair and unjuet, and have no right

form of our party has ever declared

to our view of the tarifi question, At
Do time since the foundatior ¢f the

North and West attest this fact, aad
Plainly indieate that the country s
fast comimg te the Deomogratie ey
of the matter, which js that the prime
bbject of taxatlem by tariff or oth
erwise, should be to raise money for
the legitimate expemee of the gov
ernment, economically administered.
The tariff can and should be levied
80 as to give necded protectlon pot
‘onlly to our industries but also to the
bonest labor that keeps them going.
A tariff that adds twice a® much to
the living expenses of the laborer as
it does to his wages is a fraud and a
snare, and bestows its benmefit only
upon the favored few.
“In this hour of almost certain |
triumph of our party in the na.tioua.li
elections, it would be worse than |
Yolly for the South to halt or wav-'i
er in its fight for tariff reform.
“Next im its evil effects upon the::

Golf Defined.
On the terrace of a country club,
overlooking a green dotted with sheep,
a group of nongolfers were taking tea.
A male nongolfer, who took his tea
through a straw, said thoughtfully:
“Golf might be defined as billiards
gone to grass.”
“Spleen on the green, I'd call it,”
said a female nongolfer,
“Or the last flicker in the dying fire
of athletics,” sneered a young football
player.
“The misuse of land and language,”
suggested a tennis champion.

Crossed the Alps |
in Flying Machine.
. |
The great feature of crossing the
snow-capped Alpine barrier between
Switzerland and Italy in a heavier-}
than-air machine was accomplished
Fridav by (George Chavez, the young
Peruvian aviator The plucky hero of
the exploit, however, fell and was bad
ly injured as the result of an accident
that occured just a’s he had completed
the most arduous and nerve-racking
portion of a task he had set out to
accomplish, a flight from Brig, Switzer
land, across the Alps to Milan, in
Italy, in all a distance of seventy-five
miles,
Both his legs were broken, his left
thigh is fractured, and his body is
badly contused; but the physicians in
attendance are of the opinion that
these hurts will not prove fatal and
that unless unlooked for complications
ensue Chavez will be about in two
months.
The accident occurred as Chavez was
endeavoring to make a landing at
Domodosscla. The Alps had been
crossed successfully and the aviator
was descending with the power of his
machine cut off.
When about thirty feet above the
ground a sudden gust of wind seemed
to catch the monoplane, which turned
over and fell. When the crowds that
had been watching the descent ran up
they found Chavez lying bleeding and
unconscious amid the twisted wreck
age.
Fifty miles away lay Milan, the goal
Chavez was seeking in an endeavor to
win a prize of $20,000 offered by the
Italian Aviation Society. Chavez had
lost the race, but he had crossed the
Alps in a flying machine.
