The Democratic party . oi Cochise
county, Arizona, in coivention assem
bled, hereby reaffirm our belief in and
allegiance to tbe time honored principles
of Democracy, and do unqualifiedly en
dorse the Democratic Rational Platform
adopted in Chicago, and Democratic
territotial platform a. adopted ot Wil
liams, and the national and territorial
ticket, and we congratulate the people
that alter the most strenuous attempts
to subvert those traditions and princi
ples, by thoe high in power and in the
interests of the money ltnders of Eu
rope, the Democratic party has risen tn
its might and cast out such traitors and
has forced them into the party of plutoc
racy, corporations, and assassins of labor
headed by Mark Hanna and his gang,
where they properly belong, and where
tbey are receiving the "hearty support
and co-operation of every monoply and
coriup'.iomst in our country.
We congratulate ourselves and the
whole people that every industrial soci
ety and all parties which sincerely he
lieve in our government returning to
the money of our fathers and tbe Consti
tution, are with us today in this mighty
struggle for the emancipation of sixty
millions of white slaves from the cor
rupting influences of gold monometal
lism, and that there is every reason to
believe from the signs oi the limes,
that tbe machinery of this government
will again soon be placed in the hands of
the people. ,
We believe the free and unlimi
ted coinage of silver is tbe paramount
and overshadowing principle of tbe
present campaign, an i that no person
should be elevated to office or position
of power who does nit believe in such
free coinage by oar own government,
without waiting for the consent or. as
sistance of other nations for we charne
that it was the corrupting influences
in Europe whiebforced upon its people
gold monometallism and therby reduc
ed the wage earners to serfdom; and
the same people who wrought such havoc
there, are attempting to do the same
thing here, and to our sorrow, ihey have
panally succeeded; thereby reducing
the majorty of our own people to finan
cial slavery, and impoverishing every
producer of wealth in the United States.
The contraction of the currency, of our
country, by the demonetization of silver
was the most gigantic and heinous crime
ever perpetrated on any people in the
history of tbe whole world; and those
responsible forit are traitors to freedom
and Republican institutions, and tho'se
who would now seek to maintain the
present miserable condition of our own
people by the maintenance of the pres
ent gold standard when the present op
por unity is offered in an xpansin of
currency for the alleviation of the suffer
ings oi humanity, are parties to that
great crime, in sympathy with the influ
ence which seeks 10 establish on the
mins of our government a plutocracy;
or, they deceived and misled by the
glittering falshrods circulated by the
enemies nf the people the money
changers of the east.
We pledge oar party that every nomi
nee of ihi ennvf ntion is a free silver
man th end"re every sentiment of
this p'a'form, and we ask the endorse,
mr nt of their candidates by-tne-people
and we pledge to the people a more
economical administration of territorial
and county affairs than has characterized
our government for the past two years
and that no more revenue shal' he railed
by taxation hm U requ red for the
mamtainanceof our county government
eronnmi'-aliy administered, and that the
revenue raised shall not he diverted fbr
and other purpose than the strict admin
istratirn o' county government. In ask
ing the co-operation of the people, we
pledge an efficient, honest and economi
cal administration.
