Facing Both Ways in Platform Dispute Across Parties
The Denver platform yields two conflicting Jeffersonian strands allowing Bryan and Parker to endorse it with reservations. Williams's 1904 frugality stance reappears, clashing with the rest of the platform, while Republicans boast rising appropriations of over 1.0 billion and a flood of new offices. The text accuses waste, calls for economy, and links officer growth to expansive military and canal projects under the current administration.
