Democratic Platform Highlights From Convention

The platform calls for a revenue tariff only and denounces high Republican duties as the wealth gap cause. It favors immediate but gradual duty reductions on essentials and strict enforcement of anti trust provisions. It seeks income tax, direct senatorial elections, presidential primaries, and prohibiting corporate and excessive individual campaign contributions. It urges rail and telegraph regulation, banking reform, rural credit study, flood protection for the Mississippi valley, post roads, labor rights, and Alaska territorial rights. It supports agricultural measures, merchant marine growth, pure food enforcement, civil service reform, and restraint from imperial misrule in the Philippines. It backs Alaska self government, parcels post, and rural delivery extensions.
