JThe platform follows: Wo rejolct at tha Increasing; signs of an awakening; In tha United States. The various Investigations hare traced graft and political corruption to tha repre sentatives of predatory wealth and laid bare tha unacrupuloua methoda by which I . iner cave aeDaucnea elections ana preyed '' throagt they have raised to Dime and Bower. The conscience of the nation Is now roused and will, If honestly appealed to, free tha government from the grip of those who have made It a business asset ol the ravor-seemng corporations; It must become again "a government of the people, by the people and for tha people," and be administered in all ita - departments according to tha Jeffer- onlan maxim, "equal rights to all and special privileges to none." This is the 'overshadowing Issue at this time; it manifests itself in all the questions now under discussion, and demanda imme diate consideration. We heartily approve of the laws pro hibiting the pans and the rebate and in sist upon further legislation, atata and national, making It unlawful for any corporation' to contribute campaign - funds, and providing publication before tha election of all Individual contribu tions above a reasonable minimum. h oa srtatoBignts.

Articles entering Into compe tition with articles controlled by trusts ahould be placed upon the free list; ma terial reduction should be made In the tariff upon the necessaries of life; and reductions should be made In such other schedules as may be necessary to re store the tarirr to a revenue basis. Wa favor an Income tax aa part of our revenue aystem, ana we urge tne submission of a constitutional amend' ment specifically authorising congress to levy and collect a tax upon individual and corporate Incomes, to tha end that wealth may bear its proportionate ahare of the burdena of tha federal govern ment.

Oa acclamation. We sympathise with the effort put forth for tha reclamation of tha arid tanas or tne west, and urge tha largest possible use of irrigation In tha devel opment of tha country. Wo also favor tne reclamation or swamp lands upon the same principle.

Wo urge liberal appropriations for the improve ment and development of the interior waterways, peueving mat sucn expen ditures will return a large dividend-in lessened cost of transportation.
