Democratic platform synopsis from the sub committee report
The majority backs free silver and criticizes bonds in peacetime. It calls for devolution of note issuance from national banks, favors a tariff for revenue only, and warns that re-enacting the McKinley bill harms prosperity. It supports an income tax amendment, Cuba sympathy, strict pauper emigrant controls, liberal pensions, and consolidation of contempt regulation in US courts. It rejects a third term and denounces the Republican congress and Pacific railway funding bill.
