There is no country of high civiliza tion in which it is so bad, except per il aps in one or two whero the process has been going on for 1,000 years, but in no country, ancient or mod ern, has the proc ess been so rapid as in this.

A MODEL. PLATFORM. Adopted by the Democrats In National Convention, The following U the full and com plete platform as adopted by the National Democratic convention: We, the Democrats of the United States in national convention assemb led, do reatllrni our allegiance to those great essential principles of justice and 'liberty upon which our Institu tions are founded, and which the Democratic party has advocated from Jefferson's tune to our own freedom of speech, freedom of the press, free dom of conscience, the preservation of personal rights, the equality of all citizens before the law, and the faith ful observance of constitutional limi tations. During all these-years the Demo cratic party has resisted the tendency of selfish interests to the centraliz ation of governmental power, and Htcadfastly maintained the integrity of the dual scheme of government established by the founders of this republic of republics. Under its guidance and teachings the great principle of local self-governmeht has found its best expression In the main tenance of the right's of the states and In Its assertion of the necessity of confining the general government to the exercise of powers granted by the constitution of the United States. RELIGIOUS FREEDOM. The constitution of the United States guarantees to every citizen the rights of civil and religious liberty. The democratic party lias always been the exponent of political liberty and religious freedom and It renews its obligations and rcafirnis Its devotion to these fundamental principles of the constitution. FINANCE. Recognizing that the money ques tion Is paramount to all others at this time, we Invite attention to the fact that tho constitution names silver and gold together as the money metals of the United States, and that the first coinage law passed by congress under the constitution mado the sil ver dollar the money unit, and ad mitted cold to free coinage at a ratio based upon the silver dollar unit. We declare that the act of 1873 de monetizing silver without tho knowl edge or approval of the American peo ple has resulted In the appreciation of gold, and a corresponding fall in tue price or commodities prouueeu oy the peeple; a heavy increase in the burden of taxation and of all debts, public and private; the enrichment of the money lending class at homo and abroad, the prostration of Indnstry, and Impoverishment of the people. We are unaltorably opposed to more ometalllbtu, which has locked fast the prosperity of all Industrial people In paralysis of hard times, Gold mono metallism is a uritisn policy, uuu it adoption has brought other nations Into financial servitude to London. It Is not only un-Amerlcan, but antl Amerlcan, and It can bo fastened on the United States only by tho stilling of that snirlt and love of liberty which proclaimed our political inde pendence in 1770 and won in the war of the revolution. FREE COINAGE. We demand the free and unlimited coinage of both silver and gold at the present legal ratio of 10 to 1, without waiting for the aid or consent of any other nation. We demand that the standard silver dollar shall be a full legal tender, equally with gold, for all rlnhts. nubile and private, and wo favor such legislation as will prevent for the future the demonetization or any kind of legal tender money by private contract. llONDB. We are opposed to the policy and practice of surrendering to the hold oranf t.im nhliuatlons. of the united States, the option reserved by law to . . l .1 ,. j v I - unit nl the government oi rcueuuuiiB m,n ob ligations In either silver coin or gold coin. , , . . . We are opposed to the issuing of Interest-bearing bonds of the United States In time of peace, and condemn the trafficking wuu oanxiug bynui cates which, in exchange for bonds and at an enormous profit to them selves, supply the federal treasury with gold to maintain the policy of gold monometallism. ISSUE OF MONEY. Congress alone has the power to coin and issue money, and Prerldent Jackson declared that this power could not be delegated to corporations or Individuals. We therefore de nounce the Issuance of notes intended to circulate as money by national honim no in (lprniiitlon of the consti tution, and we demand that all paper which is made a legal tender for public and private debts or which la receivable for duties to the United Btates shall be be issued by the gov ernment of the United btaies ana shall be redeemable in coin. TAItlFF. Wo hold that tariff duties should be levied for purpose oi reicuuu.Butu uu tles to bo bo adjusted as U operate equally throughout the country ana not discriminate between clasaor beo! tlon, and that taxation should bo limited by the needs of the govern ment honestly and economically ad ministrated. We denounce as disturbing to busi ness the Republican threat to restore the McKlnley law, which hag twice been condemned by tho peoplo In na tional elections, and which, enacted under the false plea of protection to homo industry, proved a prolific breeder of trusts and monopolies, en riched the few by the expense of the many, restricted trade, nud deprived the producers of the great American staples of access to their natural mar kets. INCOME TAX. Until the money question Is settled we are opposed to any agitation for further changes In our tariff laws, ex cept such as are necessary to meet the deficit in revenuo caused by tho ad verse decision of the supreme court on the income tax. But for this decision by the supremo court, there would be no deficit In tho revenuo under thelaw passed by a Democratic congress in strict pursuance of tho uniform deci sions of that court for 100 years, that court having In that decision sus tained constitutional objections to its enactment which had preciously been overruled by the ablest Judges who have ever sat on the bench. Wo de clare that It Is the duty of congress to use all the constitutional power which remains after that decision, or which niny como from Its reversal by the court as It may hereafter be consti tuted, so that the burdens of taxation may be equally and impartially laid, to the end that wealth may bear Its due proportion of the expense of the government. LABOR. We hold that the most efficient way of protecting American labor Is to prevent the importation of foreign pauper labor to compete with it In the home market, and that tho value of the home market to our American farmers and artisans Is greatly reduced by a vicious monetary system which depresses the prices of their products below the cost of production, and thus deprives them of the means of pur chasing the products of our home manufactories, and, as labor crcatcB tho wealth of the country, we demand the passage of such laws as may be necessary to protect itin all its rights. We are In favor of the arbitration ofdlfferences between employers en gaged in intcrstarc commerce and their employes, and recommend such legislation as is necessary to carry out this principle. Tho absorption of wealth by tho few, the consolidation of our leading railroad systems, and tlio formation of trust and pools require a stlcter control by tho federal government of those arteries of commerce. Wo de mand the enlargement of the powers of tho Interstate commerce commiss ion and such and such restrictions and and guarantees in In tho control of railroads as will protect the people from robbery and oppression, TAXATION. Wc denounce the profligate waste of the money wrung from tho people by oppressive taxation and tho lavish appropriations of recent Republican congresses', which have kept taxes hltrh while the labor that nays thorn Is unemployed, and the products of tho neonle's toll are depressed in price till they no longer repay tho cost of production. Wc demand a return to that sim plicity and economy which benefits a Democratic government and a reduc tion In the number of useless offices, the salaries of which drain tho sub- Btanco of the people. FEDERAL INTERFERENCE. Wodenounco arbitrary Interferences by federal authorities in local affairs as a violation of the constitution of the United States and a crime against free institutions, and we especially object to government by injunction as a now and highly dangerous form or oppression, by which federal Judges In contempt or the laws of the states and rights or citizens, become at once legislators, Judges, and executioners, and we approve the bill passed at tho last session or the United States son ato, and now pending In the house or representatives, relative to contempts In federal courts and providing for trials by Jury In certain cases of con tempt. ANTI-FUNDING. No discrimination should bo in dulged by the government of tho Uni ted States in favor of any ofltsdebt- What a great quan tity of work a "good housekeeper" finds to do I There are to many little time and strength taking chores that have no names. And It must all be done whether the housekeeper feels like it or not. This is true of men's work too, but men's manual labor is never so complicated as housekeeping. In some way or other "the world's work must be done." This iron-clad rule la i harder on women I than It la nn men. A man can't be as tick aa a woman. As a man' organization is simpler and stronger, it follows that his ailments are lesa complicated. He la not subject to the chances and changes, physiologically, that come to the average woman. If a woman ia in good health there la no more healthful employment than house work. Generally speaking, there is no hap pier woman In the world than the one who Is well and busy alt day long "making home" for dear onea who depend upon her. But how different when every breath is pain, every atep torture I Thla state of health, in nine cases out of ten comes from derangements oi me oeuciic, ituwuw or gans of generation.
