We denounce the policy of contraction as
pursued by the trevsury elllclals and sanc
tioned by our government, and demand that
tlie government issue all money and that It
be n lull legal tender ter all debts, public and
prhate. Including interests en the public
debt, and that no inore IkhhIs be Issued by
the government or the I nlted Slates.
We demand absolute protection te Ameri

In the protection of American labor and de
nounce as uuwise nud unpatriotic the at
tempt te 0 111 body in our national legislation
the principles et froe trade, we thorelero de
clare that Intelligent aud prosperous free
tabor Is the oernor-stono en which our free
government Is founded, and pretest against
lis being Impoverished by competien which
the productions e I the underpaid laborer el
the old world or degraded by the importa
tion of the serv lie classes el any isirtlens of
the world.
We demand that every aero of unearned
railroad land be Immediately lorfeited, and
that all public lands Is) reserved for actual
settlers only; that all unimproved land
owned by Individuals and corporations lu
excess or 100 acres shall be taxed te the full
value or cultivated land et like character.
We turther demand that ou and after the year
1'jOO the government shall obtain possession
by purchase of all lands legally held by non
resident aliens, and that from and alter Jan
uary 1, lte7, aliens shall la) prohibited from
acquiring title te or owning lauds within the
Unlted States of America, and that all deeds
by cllizens of the United Slates of America te
alleus, after said lest mentioned date, shall
be null ami void, and se deeded shall revert
te the government.
Whereas the preseut. system el taxation Is

calculated te breed corruption and bribery
among our citizens through the paymeut of
their taxes asa conslderatlonfor thelr votes,wo
declare against tlie partial disfranchisement
of many or our poeplo through this system
and deiuaud a reconstruction of our tax laws
te the end that this reform may be restered.
We also favor the enactment el a graduated
Income nud Inheritance tax.
We ilemand the lmmediate repeal or the
conspiracy law of Pennsylvania and the
abolition of thocriineol conspiracy at common
law, leaving overt acts te thelr proper legal
remedy; the recognition by incorporation ei
trados.uniens. orders aud such uthererganiza-

masses te improve thelr condition; that the
government shall obtain possession by pur
chase under the right of eminent domain of
all telegraphs and railroads, aud that there there
nller nocharterorlicouso be issued te any
corjieratiou for the construction or operation

seciate our labors in the establishing of

Frem tlie Philadelphia Ledger
Thore Is a sorleus aspect In which U10 sub
ject el weman'H grlovances Is olten pressed
upon notice, When a mini falls or fails, by
misfortune, lelly or crime, It is olten ene
mlKlit almost say usually the case that his
wife and family are the porseus w he have
least suspected the impending danger, and
are, of course, shocked beyond measure.
Here Is whero woman is most wronged. If
she had been muted aud treated as a partner,
the crime into which the husband falls would
have been avorled. The felly or extrava extrava
gance which leads te crlme would net be in
dulged In, If woman's ipiick Instinct of dan dan
ger and counsel of prudence wero
ofteuor consulted and heeded. One or the
greatest wreugs uuder which woman sui
tors Is the mlsonible excuse ler a regue. a de
faulter, or a feel, that his wire Is te blame.
She has, lu her weak conlldence, trusted her
husband, and lie, lu his mistaken view of
Ill-Judging allectien, lias concealed the truth
from her, or, what Is worse, he has counted
her among theso in whom he daro.uet cou ceu cou
tlde. He has carried the guilty cowardice of
concealment into his own house and home.
It is an axiom in business copartnersliips that
110 lnomber should enter Inte transactions
which he conceals from the firm. It should
be a rule of morals and el nlloctleu Hint no
man's partner in tlie eldor and scared family

no partnership iu which all the membera
