Tie pUifonn adopted by tbe Ohio Demo
cratic tuu convention for 1901 is m follow:
,1 4eocraU of Ohio reaErm their belief In
thm tqniliiy (4 Laiatioa and. other public burdens;
t&eir JnJroccj f the equal rights of all people,
with tpeial prime- to Bene; their hostilltj to
the onojo! J ration of Industry. wtn IU tendency
ca it ose haul to crush oat Individual enterprise
aid a th. other to promote a aoclalistlc spirit
ausos? the people aa the only refuge from oppres
sion, and their faith la that theory and practice of
eonjtiiBtiTOal corercsent which fcrsucht the na
Uca Into existence and tare preserved It to the ,
piesent treceratlon.
for the promotion of those object the demo-'
crU party of Ohio make the folio wing declara
tion of principles and policies:
The government of munlclpalltle of the state
herald be radically reformed and wis general
laws t-4 enacted to correct abuat and prevent
their rtnntwe.
Inefficient, expensive, unbusinesslike, partisan
and corrupt, the system which has prevailed ha
eteoura4 the interference of the state with the
ruverxrseat of the cities and the denial of home
rx.1; has fostered special lefUUtion and the im
jxsitioa tf burdensome debts and taxes without
the sanction of the people, and has brought about
the corrupt employment of party leaders to secure
la&U franchise without adequate compensa
tion therefor, and to protect the owner of such
f ranch! from Just public demand.
For the existence and continuance of those
eruditions the republican party Is responsible.
Though coetrolllnic the last genera! assembly and.
the state administration. It defeated .the "revised
municipal cole" prepared by a con-partisan com
mittee and calculated to produce real and lasting
reforest.
The democratic party therefore calls upon the
people to unite with It In placing the conduct of
7i3niefal a? airs upon a business basis, that they;
ray be administered by the people in the Interest
ui all the ptople oa the principle of home rule.
No franchise, extension or renewal thereof "ever
to be granted by any city or village without first
utcltting the same to a vote of the people.
The acceptance of free passes or other favor
from railroads by public offcera or employes shall
be rrd adequate ground for vacating the of
tce held ty them.
All public service corporatlona shall be re
quired by law to make sworn public report .and
the power and duty of visitation and public report
shall be conferred upon the proper state and local
auiiting oncers to the end that the true value of
the privileges held by these corporations shall be
road plain to the people.
Eteam and electric railroads and other corpora
tions paesilng public franchises shall be as
Md la the same proportion to their salable value
aa are farms and city real estate.
The proce-dirg of the republican majority of
the state board of equalization are a scandal.
J'rcperty values instead of being equalized were
1 ncrease 1 or diminished at the dictation of political
twes pursitant to corrupt combiration and con
spiracies. The r publican majority cf the general as
stsbiy rve the condemnation cf the people
for its rkW extravagance and Its creation of
vjtf of-i. while it enacted no legislation for
the b?ne; cf the people. The present republican
administration In the conduct of public affairs and
In the management of public Institutions has been
the most costly in the history of the state. Its
benevolent and penal Institutions should be con
cocted upon a non-partisan and business basis.
The referred right of the states and people to
be upheld. Centralization, which would destroy
them, to bo condemned. A strict construction of
the constitution.' The greatest individual liberty
consistent with public order and welfare.
Tariff reform, never more urgently' demanded
than now, when the production of the country so
tar exceeds its power of consumption, that for
eign markets are a prime condition of its con
tinued prosperity and when the existence and
abuses of trusts have been brought about by the
policy of protection of favored industries. The
abolition of the so-called protective system and
the substitution In its place of the traditional
democratic policy of a tariff for revenue so levied
as not to burden one industry for the benefit of
another.
The enactment and vigorous enforcement of
measures which shall prevent all monopolies and
combinations in restraint of trade and commerce
the matter of first Importance being to prevent
the use of the government as an instrumentality
for the creation and increase of the wealth of the
Jew, while preserving intact the right of private
property ad the fullest measure of individual lib
erty of contract and assuring to every man the just
reward l superior industry and skill. We de
mand the suppression of all trusts and a return .
to indastrial freedom. As a means to that end
all trust products should be placed on the free
list and thf: government should exercise a more
rigid supervision of transportation lines and
abolish, in fact, all discrimination in rates.
Our merchant marine to be restored to Its
former greatness and made the ally of the people
against monopoly by the repeal of antiquated and
f restricted navigation laws. But no subsidies for
favored shipowners.
The poMrers granted the federal, government
were not meant to be used to conquer or hold in
subjectlo. the people of other countries. Their
vse for such purposes not only belles our declara
t.on of the rights of man, but also unbalances our
system by increasing the centralization of power at
Washington to the ultimate Overthrow of home
rule.
The democratic party has never favored and
now opposes any extension of the national boun
daries not meant to carry speedily to all in
habitants full equal rights with ourselves. If these
are unfitted by location, race or character to be
formed Into self-governing territories and then in
corporated Into the union of states in accordance
with the historic policy of the republic they should
be permitted to work out their own destiny.
Only territorial expansion demanded by the na
tional welfare and the national safety to be at
any time favored the objection which should have
prevented certain of our recent accessions being
that they Imperil the national safety without pro
moting the national welfare; that they devolve
upon us enormous responsibilities we have no call
to assume; that they are certain to be unre
muneratlve drain upon our resources; that they
tend to embroil us with European powers; that
they ' weaken our claim to supremacy on the
American continent, at the same time that they
lessen our ability to make the claim good; and
tfeat they furnish a dangerous opportunity and
temptation for the disregard of "the self-evident
truth of universal application that governments
derive their just powers from the consent of the
governed."
The obvious sympathy of the national adminis
tration with the British government In its efforts
to destroy the South African republics and the
policy which has made the ports of the United
States a basis' of supply for the British army,
without' which the war could not be successfully
carried on, are condemned by the democracy of
Ohio.
The maintenance of the M'onroe doctrine as
heretofore interpreted and asserted by the national
government. ',.-."
A navy commensurate with the international
Importance of the United Sttes and its primacy in
the western hemisphere and adequate to the pro
tection of the lives and property of American citi
zens the world over. -
The faithful observance and wider application
of civil service principles, especially as regards our
diplomatic and consular representatives.
A constitutional amendment requiring the elec
tion of United States senators by the direct vote of
the people. Hereafter until this is passed when
ever a senator is to be elected it shall be the duty
of the state committee to give notice in its call,
that the nomination of a senator will be made at
the state convention. ,
No question of the right of labor to combine
for the assertion of its rights and the protection of
its interests. The burdens of the unjust and dis
criminating laws for which the republican party is
responsible fall chiefly on those who till the soil or
labor at other forms of production. . All these con
stitute a large majority of our 'citizens; they have
never sent lobbyists to the halls of federal or state
leg -Matures nor founded monopolies nor demanded
special privileges. They have patiently endured
the operation of these laws which keep from them
and give to others their Just share of the national
wealth. The democratic party pledges its efforts
to relieve them of the burdens which class legisla
tion has laid, on them. . ; . . -' :
That the republican party has always upheld
class interests and is justly chargeable with hostil
ity in both belief and practice to the above prin
ciples is common knowledge It cannot be trusted
to deal with evils of its own creation. The arro
gant assumption by that, party of all credit for
everything and the threats of those who speak for
U and its favored interests, already too powerful
to create artificial conditions of stringency and
distress, unless the policies they advocate are sup
ported at the polls, deserve the condemnation of a
pc ople who are just and propose to remain free.
Inspired by the examples of the long line of its
statesmen, who have applied these principles from
the days of Thomas Jefferson to the present time,
the democratic party pledges itself anew to their
support; and earnestly appeals to all patriotic men
without regard to party names or past differences,
to unite with it on terms of perfect equality In the
struggle to rescue our government from the .grasp
ot selfishness and corruption and' restore It to its
former fairness, purity and simplicity.
One great danger which now threatens our Tree
Institutions is the widespread corruption which
menaces the destruction of public virtue. Vast
sums of money are corruptly employed in popular
elections; official defalcations are so frequent as
scarcely to excite attention, and political bosses
rule and rob the people, all of which Is a direct re
sult of republican policies and legislation. '
. We demand that all official misconduct and
corruption be vigorously punished, that public vir
tue be upheld and the want of it denounced.
THE PETER COOPER CLUB
WHAT BRYAN THINKS OF IT
fir. Bryan Comment in the Commoner a Folr
low L'poa the Platform sod Democratic
Gold Bug of Ohio
The Ohio democratic convention was the
j!ilical event of last week. The platform
aicpU-4, nl reproduced on page five of this
isicf rajfcde a strong presentation of some of
th isu.-s hut fiil to reaffirm the Kansas
Chj pUtforra.
It bega with municipal and state bsnes
aad the handiwork of Mavor Tom L. Johnson
vis evident in the terse and emphatic declara
ti n of democratic principle so far as they ap
ply to local Kjuestion. The necessity for inu
r.ictpai reform is an urgent one and there is
sour.d democracy in the plank demanding that
the people he given an opportunity to rote on
qceetiocs involving the granting or extending
of a franchise.
The plank which declares that "steam and
electric railroads and other corporation posses
sing public franchises shall be assessed in the
siroe proportion to their salable value a are
farms a&d city real estate is both logical and
just, but it is likely to offend the very people
w ho were to be conciliated by an evasion of
the silver quettion.
The plank againt pae is all right but
w ill cot make vote among the to-called con
servatives. The platform urges tariff reform.
The anti-trust plank would have been
stronger if it had reiterated the Ivans:
City platform on the subject- The free Ust
and the pretention of railroad discrimina
tions are good so far as they go but hey
do not go far enough. Whenever a trnrt can
ezport it good to other countries it can live
here without any tariff. Something mere than
free trade is necessary to such a case' Abso
lute fairness in railroad rates is desirable, but
even this will not make private monopolies im
possible. The Kansas City platfora suggested
a complete remedy-the only one yet proposed
arl it is to be regretted that the Ohio conven
tion was so prejudiced against thf last national
platform cf the party that it ignored a remedy
endorsed by more than six million voter.
The plank condemning imperialism criti
cise the republican policy without pointing
out a remedy. Here again the failure to reaf
firm the Kansas City platform ha weakened
the Ohio democracy.
The convention endorsed the proposi
tion to elect senator by the people. The
labor plank is excellent but those who
wrote the platform failed, either intentionally
r unintentionally, to meation government by
injunction, the black list and arbitration. A
rtarLiiUcn cf the Karus City platform would
have covered these points also but having
failed to reaffirm, the convention should have ''
been careful to touch on all the important ques
tions. The convention not only failed, but refused
to endorse or reaffiimthe Kansas City platform,
and, from the manner in which the gold ele
ment ha rejoiced over thi feature of the con
vention, one would suppose that the main ob
ject of the convention was not to write a new
platform, but to repudiate the one upon which ,
the last national campaign was fought.
Gen. Finley wa right in insisting upon a vote
on hi resolution endorsing the Kansas City plat
form, but ho made a mistake in including in
hi resolution a complimentary reference to Mr.
Bryan. Mr. Bryan is not a candidate for any
office, and a mention of him might have been
construed by some a an endorsement of him
for office. The vote should have been upon
the naked proposition to endorse the platform
of last year, and then no one could have ex
cused his abandonment of democratic principles
by pleading hi dislike for Mr. Bryan. The
cause ought not to be made to bear the sin of
an individual. Mr. Bryan will endure without
complaint any punishment which the democ
racy of Ohio may see fit to administer to him,
tut he does not want his name used to the in
jury of a good platform.
The gold papers assume that the convention
refused to adopt the Kansas City platform be
cause it contained a silver plank. If so, it
would have leen more courageous to have de
clared openly for the gold standard. If the
gold standard is good, it ought to have been
endorsed if bad, it ought to have been de
nounced. To ignore the subject entirely was
inexcusable.
The money question is not yet out of poli
tics. Every session of congress will have to
deal with it. Republicans declare that it is
dead but they keep working at it. At the last
session of congress they tried to make the
silver dollar redeemable in gold and when that
is accomplished they will try to limit the legal
tender qualities of the dollar. The gold stand
ard will not be complete until gold is the only
legal tender money and bank notes the only
paper money. Then our supply of primary
money will be controlled by foreign financiers,
and our supply of credit money by domestic
financiers.
This plan has been developed gradually and
every step has been taken secretly and stealth
ily. The republican leaders have been in thi
movement for years; as soon as the democratic
party found that some of its leaders had joined
the conspiracy those ' leaders were deposed.
. It look now as if the reactionary influences
were once more trying to secure control. If
they succeed in Ohio or elsewhere it simply
means anotherJgigantic struggle such as -was
witnessed in 1896. The democratic party can
not be made a plutocratic party even if there
was room in thi country for two such parties.
There wa a time, under the Cleveland regime,
when the party leaders used general and am
biguous phrases to deceive the voters, but
that scheme can not be worked again. We
can not expect the voters to have confidence in
the party unless the party has confidence in
the voters and if the party has confidence in
the voters it will state its position on all the
important questions before the country and in
vite judgment.
The present campaign involves a senator, as
well as a state ticket, and as the convention
dealt with other national questions, it should
have dealt candidly and honestly with the
money question. Mr. McLean is supposed to
be a candidate for the United States Senate, and
is also supposed to have dictated that portion
of the platform which has to do with national
issues. The senator elected by the next
Ohio legislature will have to vote on the
money question. The democratic party
of the nation is opposed to making the sil
ver dollar a promise to pay gold, and is
also opposed to substituting national bank
notes for government paper, but the democratic
party in Ohio was silent upon these important
subjects. Why? Did the leaders ignore the
money question in order to please those who
bolted? Or does Mr. McLean want to be left
free to affiliate with the republicans on finan
cial questions in case of his election?
Mr. Kilbourne, the nominee for governor,
is an excellent man, a life-long democrat and
an active supporter of the national ticket in
both 1896 and 1900. He is better than his
TT. a .... . , ,
piauurm. xie deserves ana snouia re
ceive the vote of every democrat in Ohio.
If any of the Ohio democrats feel aggrieved
because the reorganizing element of the party
triumphed at the convention let them not visit
their disappointment upon the state ticket but
rather see to the nomination of senators and
representatives who will select a trust-worthy
senator. ' Let them see to it also that the state
platform is made at the primaries next time
rather than at the convention. If the voters
at the primaries had instructed their delegates
to insist upon the reaffirmation of the Kansas
City platform the result rould have been dif
ferent.
Is it because the republican editors are un
selfish and anxious to see the democrats win
that they are exultant over the repudiation of
the Kansas City platform by the Ohio conven
tion?
It Appelate a CommlttM. and That Com
ndttM Makti a Rprt Upn She Be
cnt Saprcma Caart DacUlaa
The Peter Cooper club respectfully
submits the following address for the
consideration of candid men relative tc
the recent decision of the United Stat
es supreme court in the Porto Rican
cases:
The court held by a vote of 5 to 4
that the island of Porto Rico is a
territory belonging to the United Stat
es, but not a part of the United States
within the revenue clause of the con
stitution, which provides that "all du
ties, imposts and excises shall be uni
form throughout the United States,"
and that the Foraker act, which pro
vides that certain duties shall be col
lected on merchandise brought from
Porto Rico to the United States, is
constitutional and can be enforced.
This decision is far-reaching in its
effect and apparently but few realize
ts true import. -It
means that the colonial policy of
the present administration will here
after be held to .be constitutional by
at least a majority of one (all It needs)
In the highest tribunal In the land
It means that the theory which has
heretofore prevailed, that congress is
the creature of the constitution, and
has no powers except those delegated
by the constitution, is no longer the
rule, and that hereafter, the supreme
court will hold, when this colonial pol
icy is involved that congress has an
existence, and can exercise authority
outside of the constitution, contrary to
the tenth amendment of the constitu
tion, which reads: .
The powers not delegated to the
United States by the constitution, nor
prohibited by it to the states, are re
served to the states respectively, or to
the people."
It means that hereafter the supreme
court may be depended upon to sus
tain the theory that congress may by
action taken outside of the constitu
tion engraft upon our republican insti
tutions a colonial system such as ex
ists under monarchial governments.
It means that hereafter this country
may acquire territories anywhere upon
the earth, by treaty or by conquest,
and hold them as mere colonies or pro
vinces, wniie the people innaoiting
them are to enjoy only such rights as
congress may see fit to accord them.
The spirit that fostered this nation
was the spirit of the Declaration of
Independence that spirit which de
clared that "all men are created equal,"
that "governments derive their just
powers from the consent of the gov
erned," that "taxation without repre
sentation is tyranny," and that the
right of the people to representation
in the legislative body is "a right In
estimable to them and formidable to
tyrants only." It was the heart-throb
of three millions of mankind. It was
the soul of inspiration to Washington
and his bleeding and frozen forces at
Valley Forge. It fired the genius of
Jackson at New Orleans. It was the
beacon I5ght in the dismal and gloomy
path of Lincoln in the dark days of the
rebellion. It was the spirit that beck
oned on the heores of America only
three short years ago, as from hill and
valley throughout this land, patriots
of America enlisted in the cause of
stricken Cuba.
. Are these principles false? Has Am
erica lived a lie for 125 years? Is lib
erty but a phantom? Is freedom a
dream? Does the "flag mean one thing
here and another thing in our colonial
possessions?" After all the tears, sor
rows and despair of countless millions
who have died that liberty might live
after all, is It true that the divine
right of kings is the-correct principle
of government?
These are the questions that the Am
erican people must decide, and upon
their correct answer will rest the lib
erty and welfare, not only of ourselves,
but of numberless generations yet un
born.
And in making this decision let Am
erican people heed the warning of the
immortal Lincoln:
"They who deny freedom to others,
deserve it not for themselves, and un
der a just God cannot long retain it"
GEORGE A. MAGNEY,
J. J. POINTS,
L. J. QUINBY,
Committee.
It means that the principle contended
for by the founders of our govern
ment, that there shall be no taxation
without representation, and no govern
ment without the consent of the gov
erned, shall no longer prevail.
It means that Porto Rico, whose offi
cers are appointed by the United Stat
es, may be treated as If it were not a
part of the United States, and hence
it follows that New Mexico and Ari
zona may be treated as though they
were no part of the United States, yet
subject to such legislation, as con
gress may choose to enact, without
reference to the restrictions Imposed
by the constitution.
It means that the constitution does
not follow the flag, and that we, wbo
demanded liberty and equality before
the law, for ourselves, now deny them
to others.
We therefore conclude that this re
markable decision is a long step to
ward empire; that this government is
now largely in the hands of a class
who favor laws that will protect prop
erty, rather than men; and that, while
eternal vigilance is the price of liberty,
the present apathy and unconcern of
the average citizen in the face of this
monstrous decision bodes no good for
the hope the American people have
heretofore had in the constitution and
the Declaration of Independence.
This dangerous doctrine which be
comes a precedent by virtue of this de
cision is well rebuked by Justice Har
lan in his dissenting opinion as fol
lows:
"These are words of weighty import.
They involve consequences of the most
momentous character. I take leave to
say that if the principles now an
nounced should ever receive the sanc
tion of a maojrity of this court, the
result will be a radical and mischiev
ous change in our system of govern
ment. We will in that event pass from
the era of constitutional liberty guard
ed and protected by a written consti
tution, into an era of legislative ab
solutism, in respect of many rights
that are dear to all peoples who love
freedom."
