JUSTICE AND MODERATION. GIBSON. GA.. FRIDAY. APRIL II, itW PASTY FORMED Name Is “Allied People’s Parly oi t!i3I’rited States.” TlATFORM strictly populist -igl.t Distinct Organizations WerA Fiepretcntcd In the 250 Delegates to U+e Convention —United Against “Plutocracy.” Under the name of the Allied People’s .’arty of the United States, a new po> ilic at organization was formed at -cuisviile, Ky., Thursday, efitiijjtlsed of reform elements opposed to the demo, cratin'Slid republican parties. The platform of the new organiza tion embodies the platform adopted at the conference held in Kansas City last September, when's call for a con vention was issued, “to unite reform forces against plutocracy,” It reaf firms the spirit of the declaration of principle* adopted at the national con ventions of the people's party ill St. Louis, Omaha and Cincinnati, and the demand for the initiative and referen dum, and the government ownership of all public utilities are its principal planks. While the people’s party, the fusion populists, the socialists, the referen dum league, the union labor league, the public ownership party of St. Louis, the prohibition party and tho United Christian party were represent ed on the floor of the convention by accredited or by volunteer delegates, only two national organizations, tfto people’s party and the public owner ship party, had given their delegates any authority to form an alliance, It is the hope, however, of* the allied people's party that other reform forces will decide to Unite with the new or ganization. The convention was practically domi inated by the people's party. At times discussions of a lively nature took place and for a time it seemed that the movement was about to fail owing to the unwillingness of a number of the people’s party delegates to make any concessions to the other reform rfprge* Breast^ ” k Under the plan of organization adopt ed the national committee of the peo ple's pirty, with Jo A. Parker as Its chairmen, will remain intact, with the addition of three more members from Missouri, who will have one-half vote each, until the next national conven tion, this being a concession to the reform forces of that state. This committee will have power to call a national convention and its headquar ters will be situated wherever the chairman desires, except three months before election, when it will be In St. Louis. The national committee will be composed of three members from each state and territory and an executive committee of seven will be selected from the country at large every four years at a national convention. The basis of representation will be five delegates at large from every stute and territory and one additional dele gate fo revery thousand voters, based on the vote at the preceding national election. The differences between the plat form adopted by the convention and that recommended by the platform committee are very slight. In the platform adopted the demand for Ini tiative and referendum is found in both the preamble and platform. In the plank on money, the platform adopted favors scientific money based upon the entire wealth of the people of the nation and not redeemablo In any specific commodity, but to be le gal tender for all debts, public and private, and to be Issued by the gov ernment only and without the interven tion of banks, sufficient in quantity to meet the requirements of commerce. Th second day’s session of the con vention was called to order at 9:45 o’clock Thursday morning by Tempo rary Chairman Felter, of Springfield, IPs. The report of the committee on cre dentials showed about 250 delegates present, representing the following states: Arkansas, California, Florida, Geor gia, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Kansas, Missouri, Michigan, Maine, Nebraska, New Jersey, New Hamp shire New York, Oklahoma, South Da kota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Vir ginla, West Virginia, Mississippi and Pennsylvania. Milton Park, of Texas, was elected chairman. J. V. L. Pierson, of New Jersey, was made secretary. Marconi Sells Americans Rights.
