Naiionai Holiday. How it was Observed in Rensselaer. Patriotic Speeches by Hon. R. S. Dwigglns, Hon.S. P. Thompson and M. L. Spitler, Esq. Toasts and Responses by Graduating Class or 1880. Grand Display of Fire-Worßs.

The aniversary of our National independence is a lime yfor retrospection and reflection —for grati* itude for the past and lofty resolves for the future. Next to the discovery of America must always be reckoned America’s recovery from Foreign despotism. Next to the patriotism and lolty sentiment contained in the declaration of indepen dence must always be remembered the day upon which America was declared free and independent. To forget the 4th/61 July as an American Holiday is to forget the great patriotism of Washington, Jefferson and other men who were brave when we needed bravery who were patriotic when we needed patriotism who were faithful to a trust when we needed fidelity. Let the people celebrate and rejoice. Let the day be observed on each succeeding return. Too many true men and women are ready to remember the day once in four or five years. Let our children be taught to sing:

My country ’Us of Uice, Sweet land of liberty, Of tliee l sing ; Land where my fathers died, Hind of the pilgrim's pride, From every mountain side Let freedom ring. The people of Jasper county are notforgetlu) ofthe day wc celebrate and although the farmers were overburdened with work they put aside the reaper and the plow on Saturday and came to Rensselaer to “rejoice with those that rejoice’’. The several committees appointed a few weeks ago to make arrangements for the celebration did their work well and presented a splendid programme of exercises. At 10 o’clock a. m. the Rensselaer Cornet Band played a National Air, and 11011. Horace E. James announced the programme for the day. After an anthem by the choir, Rev. 11. A. Mayhew, of California, offered a servant prayer, the choir then sang “My Country ’tis of Thee,” after which lion. S. P. Thompson deliv. ered a very eloquent and patriotic address. The speech was pro nounced, by all, the best effort o' his life. Mr. Thompson concluded his speech just at noon and the audience were dismissed for dinner. The streets were literally crowded with people and by 2 o’clock fully two thousand people had assembled under the shade trees in 11 10 court

house square, the Cornet Band favored the audience with another stirring piece of music when M. L. Spitler was introduced and delivered a forcible and eloquent address. The feature of the day was the addresses of Delos Thompson, Elmer Dwiggins, Victor Loughrdige, Lewis'Hollingsworth, Chas. Warner and Zimri Paris who constituted the graduating class of 18S0. The people were proud of them because they represented the intelligence of Jasper county, and because the class graduated in the Rensselaer Graded Schools. Fully a thousand people assembled around the speakers stand at V o'clock in the evening, Lion. R. S. Dwiggins was introduced as the speaker, but that gentleman seeing that the time had arrived for the display of fireworks, merely congratulated the people upon the success of the days entertainment, and directed their footsteps across the bridge. At 8 o’clock the first sky-rocket shot towards the clouds, the space near the bridge at this time was crowded with eager spectators. The display ol fire works was simply grand and called forth rounds of applause. Altogether the day is one long to be remembered by the patriotic libertyloving people of our county. Dr. J. H. Loughridge has associated with him in the practice of medicine, Dr. F. P. Bitters. The Royal beauties of Europe owe much of their personal attractiveness to the influence of Ayer’s Hair Vigor, which keeps the hair fresh and bright. Messrs. Gorkins & Johnson have assumed control of the Rensselaer Republican. We wish them success aside from their political teachings.

DEMOCRATIC PLATFORM. 1. We, the Democracy of Indiana, in Delegate Convention assembled, congratulate the Democracy of tha country upon the harmony prevailing within its organization, and upon its unanimity in the purposes to cast behind it every eccasion and sentiment of discord, and to stand as one man for success in 18ri0: and we give assurance to the Democracy of the country that, accepting the declaration of principles, and purposes, that may be made at Cincinnati, and the candidates who may be there ‘chosen, we will give to them our earnest and undivided support. 2. We believe that laws should be enacted, executed and administered only for the public good, and all class legislalion, and all favoritism m the affairs of Government, should be defeated and made odious; that taxes should be levied justly, afl'd the most rigid economy should control public expenditures; that the elections must be freed from the control of the army, and of partisan officials, in that they shall be rair and honest as they once were; that the rightful jurisdiction of the State Courts must, he restored, imall cases where it has been usurped by the Federal authority, so that justice may be administered cheaply and speedily.

3. The coiu and paper money of the country should he of uniform value. and readily convertible, and should have as great purchasing power as the money of other first class commercial countries of the world, and the paper money, like the coin, should he furnished by the United States, and should not be in excess of such quantity as will be, and remain always, at par with coin. •i. Inasmuch as the outstanding Treasury notes are no longer neeessary tolhe Government in the use of its credit, and are useful only as money, they should be made subject to taxation, the same as other money. As tax payers, we declare our gratification at the action of the Democratic members of Congress in reducing public expenditure, aud in cutting oft - the allowance and payment of questionable aud fraudulent claims, resulting in a saving to the Treasury of more than $100,000,000. 5. We will stand with all our might agaiust the aggression of the Republican leaders upon the rights of the States, made for the purpose of building up a strong central power, dangerous to the liberty of the people. We will in all fidelity maintain the Constitutional rights aud powers of the United States, and as faithfully we will maintain and vindicate the rights of the States as reserved to them in the Con stiuition. 0. The Legislature of 1879 is entitled to honorable mention for having redeemed the pledges of the Democratic Convention of 187'ti to provide by law for the comfort and safety of laborers in the mines, and for securing their wages to the persons employed by corporations, and we are in favor of such further legislation in the premises ns may be necessary and proper.

We congratulate the people of the State that by the action of the Democrats of the last. Legisla ture-in basing representation on population and contiguity of territory only, the shame and taint ot fraud have been removed from the apportionment of representation, and that now the people will be equally and fairly represented. 7. The people of Indiana are justly proud of their system of free schools, and will maintain them in their full force and usefulness, and to that end wemnst sec to it that the management thereof does not become wasteful or extravagant, and that no part of the munificent fund which they have provided shall lie used for sectarian or for any other purposes whatever than the support of common schools. 8. We are gratified that the Democrats in Cungross have acred in respect to bounties and pensions forsoldies and their families in the spirit of justice and liberality. 9. We hold up to public detestation tho conduct of the leaders in the Republican party in placing Hayes and Wheeler, by criminal practices shocking to every honest sentiment and damaging to our institutions, in offices to which they were not elected. It was an outrage upon free'government, and a crime against the elective franchise that can not tie forgiven, and must not be repeated, and for which the guilty parties must be driven from power and consigned to infamy. And we hold up to public detestation tte conduct of the President in rewarding the guilty parties by conferring upon them high and lucrative offices. To reward crime is itself criminal. 10. During the past few years our country has been blessed in a high degree with favorable seasons, and the production of our valuable staples lias been enormously in excess of our own consumption. We hnvo sold to foreign countries many hundred millions more than wo have purchased from them : gold and silver lias come to ns; business confidence has been restored, and we have the hope and promise of good times again. In all litis we recognize the blessing of God upon our country, and we denounce it ns false and blasphemous when partisan lenders claim that this is the work of their hands, and that the people should he thankful to them and not grateful to Heaven for our returning prosperity. 11. We approve the sentiment expressed by Governor Hendricks in his letterof acceptance in 18711. rliat “the iniquitous coolie system which, tlirough tho agency of wealthy companies imports Chinese bondsmen, establishes a species of slavery. and interferes with the just reward of labor on bur Pacific Coast, should bo utterly abolished.” 12. Our State administration is entitled to tlie respect and support of the people. The government of Indiana is efficiently administered, and more cheaply than that of any other State. 13. That we recognize the right of colored citizens ns well ns white to immigrate into Indiana, hut we condemn and denounce the act ion of the Republican party in importing into this State pauper negroes for tlie sole purpose of using them as voters. 11. We hereby iusnrnct our delegates to the "Natioi al Convention at Cincinnati to present, to that body the name of Thomas A. Hendricks as a candidate lor President, of tlie United States, one who lias at .-ill times faithfully maintained the cause of Democratic, truth and justice acceptably to the Democracy of the whole Union, tints assuring the election of a Democratic Legislature and United States Senator in IM. and a fresh, pure and constitutional administration of the General Government. 15. We favor the continuance of the two-thirds rule in the National Convention, and tlie dele gates this day chosen are hereby instructed to vote for Hon. Thomas A. Hendricks as our candidate for the Presidency, and to vote ns a unit on all questions in said Convention. Time to Transplant Trees.— lt is usually done during tlie month of April, but maybe done any time after the frost is out and ground settled; and the place to get the trees is at the Rensselaer Nursery.
