The Rensselaer Union of November 21st, 1878, thus speaks of Mr. Douthit the Democratic candidate for Prosecutor: “Mr. Douthit is a stranger to many having been a resident of Jasper on a few months, and bailing from a distant part of the State.

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 1880; 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 onr earnest and undivided support. 2. Wc believe that laws should be enacted, executed and administered only for the pnblic .goon, and all class legielalion, ana all favoritism in the affairs of Government, should he defeated and made odious: that taxes should be levied justly, affd 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 thev shall be fair and honest as they once were; that'the rightful jurisdiction of the State Courts must be restored, iu all cases where it has been usurped by the Federal authority, so tfiat justice may be administered cheaply and speedih\ , , 3. The coiu and paper money of the country should be of uniform value, and readily convertibla, 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 be furnished by the Cmted States, and should not be in excess of such quantity as will be. and remain always, at par with com. 4. Inasmuch as the outstandfug Treasnry notes are no longer necessary to the 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, wc declare our gratification at the action of the Democratic members or Congress in reducing pnblic expenditure, and in cutting oft' the allowance and payment of qnestionableand fraudulent claims, resulting in asaving to the Treasury of more than $100,000,000. 5. We will stand with all our might against 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 al! fidelity maintain the. Constitutional rights and 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 stitution. . , . . , 6. The Legislature of 1879 is entitled to honorable mention for having redeemed the pledges of the Democratic Convention of 1878 to provide by law for the comfort and safety of laborers in the mines, and for securing their wages to the persons eu. ployed by corporations, and we ave in favor of suets further legislation iu the premises as may be necessary aiid proper. ... . We congratulate the people of the State that by the action of the Democrats of the last Legisla lore 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 tlieir full force and usefulness, and to that end we must see 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 be used for sectarian or for any other purposes whatever than the support of common schools. 8. Wo are gratified that the Democrats in Congress have acted in respect to bounties and pensions for soldies and their families iu the spirit oi justice and liberality. , . 9. We hold up to public detestation the conduct of the leaders iu the Republican party in placing Haves 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 be 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 iu excess of our own consumption. We have sold to foreign countries manv hundred millions more than we 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 this we recognize the blessing of God upon our country, and wc denounce it ns false and blasphemous when partisan leaders 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 piosperity. 11. We approve the sentiment expressed by Goyernor Hendricks in his letter of acceptance jn 1878, rhat “the iniquitous coolie system whieh, through the ngenev of wealthy companies imports Chinese bondsmen, establishes a species of slavery, and interferes with the just reward of labor on onr Pacific Coast, should he utterly abolished.’ 13.. Our State administration is entitled to the respect and support of the people. The governmen* of Indiana is efficiently administered, and more cheaply thau that of any other State. 13. Thatwc recognize the right of colored citizens as well as white to immigrate into Indiana, but wc condemn and denounce the action of the Republican party in importing into this State pauper negroes for the sole purpose of using them as voters. 14. We hereby insaruct our delegates to the >• a tional Convention at Cincinnati to present to that bodv the name of Thomas A. Hendricks as a candidate for President of the United States, one who has at all times faithfully maintained the caused Democratic truth and justice acceptably to the Democracy of the whole Union, thus assuring the election of a Democratic Legislature and United States Senator in 1881, 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 the dele gaies this (lav chosen are hereby instructed to vote for Hon. Thomas A. Hendricks as our candidate for the Presidency, and to vote as a unit on ail questions in said Convention.

NATIONAT GREENBACK PLATFORM.

“The civil government should guarantee the divine right of every laborer to the resuits of his UiU, thus enabling the producers of wealth to provide themselves with means for physical comfort and facilities for mental, social and moral culture; and we condemn as unworthy our civilization, the barbarism which imposes upon the wealth producers a state of drudgery as the price of bare animal existenee. 'Notwithstanding the enormous increase of productive power, the universal introduction of labor-saving ma_ chinerv, and the discovery of new agents for tho increase of wealth, the task of the laborer is scarcely lightened, the hours of toil are hi.t little shwrtciied, and few producers are lifted from poverty into comfort and pecuniary independeuce. The associated monopolies, the international syndicates and other income classes demand dear money and cheap labor, a strong government, and lienee a weak people. Corporate control of the volume of money has been the means of dividing society into hostile classis, of unjust distribution of the products of labor, and of the building up of monopolies < f atsdeiated capital, endowned with power to confiscate private property, it has kept money scarce, and the scarcity of money enforces debt trade, and public and corporate loans. Debt engenders usury, and usury ends in the baukrupey of the borrower. Other results are deranged markets, uncertainty in manufacturing enterprises and agriculture, .precarious and intermittent employment for the laborer, industrial war, increasing pauperism and crime and tho consequent intimidation and distranchiseinent of the producer, and a rapid declension into corporate feudalism. Therefoae we declare—-

1. That the right to make an issue money is a sovereign power to he maintained by the people for their common benefit. The delegation of this right to corporations is a surrender of the central attribute of sovereignty, void of constitutional sanction, conferring upon a subordinate and irresponsible power absolute dominion over industry and commerce. All money, whether metallic nr paper, shouldbe issued audits volume controlled | y (the government, and n 4 by or through banking corporations, and when so issued should be a Hill‘legal tender for all debts, public and private. 2. That the bonds of the United States should not he refunded, but paid es rapidly as practicable according to contract. To enable the government to meet tlieao obligations, legal tender currency should be substituted for the notes of tho National flanks, the National Banking system abolished, and the unlimitted coinage of silver as well as gold established by law. 3. That labor should be so protected by national and State authority, as to equalize its burdens and insure a just distribution of its results. The eight hour law of Congress should be enforced. The sanitary condition of industrial establishments placed under rigid control. The competition of the contract convict labor abolished. A bureau of labor statistics established. Factories, mines and workshops inspected. The employment of children under 14 years of age forbidden, and wages paid in cash. 4. Slavery being simply cheap labor, and cheap being simply slavery, the importation and presence of Chinese serfs, necessarily tends to brutalize and degrade American labor; therefore immediate steps should be taken to abrogate the Burlingame treaty. 5. Kailroad land grants forfeited by reason of non-fulfillment of contract, shouldbe immediately reclaimed by the Government, and henceforth the public domain reserved exclusively as homes for actual settlers. (5. It is tlie duty of Congress to regulate interstate commerce. All lines of communication should bo brought under such legislative coutrol as shall secure moderate, fair and uniform rates for passenger and freight traffic. 7. Wo denounce, as destructive to property and dangerous to liberty the action of the old parties m fostering and sustaining gigantic land, railroad and money corporations and monopolies, invested with and exercising powers belonging to tlie government, and not responsible to it for the manner of their exercise. 8. That the constitution is giving congress the power to borrow money, to dcelare war, to raise and support armies, to provide and maintain a navy, never intended that the men who loaned their money for an interest consideration sconld be preferred to the soldiers and sailors who periled their lives and shed their blood on land and si a in defence of their country, and we condemn the cruel class legislation of the Republican party which, while professing great gratitude te the soldier, lias most unjustly discriminated against him and in favor of the bondholder. 9. All property should bear its just proportion of taxation, and we demAd a graduated income tax. 10. We denounce as dangerous the effort everywhere manifest to restrict the right of suffrage. 11. arc opposed to an increase of the stand* ing army in the time of peace, and the insidious scheme to establish an enormous military power under the guise of militia laws. 12. We demand absolute Democratic rules for the government of congress, placing all repregen* tatives of the people upon an equal footing, and taking away from committees a veto power greater than that of the president. 13. We demand a government of the people, by the people and for the people, instead of a government es the bondholder, by the bondholder and for the bondholder: and we denounce every attempt to stir up sectional strife as an effort to conceal monstrous crimes against the people. If. In the furtherance of these ends we ask the co-opcratiqu of all fair minded people. We have no quarrel with individuals, wage no war upon classes, imt only against viciohs institutions.

We are not content to endure further discipline from onr present actual rulers, who. having dominion over money, over transportation, over land and labor, over tho press and the machinery of the government, wield unwarrantable power over nr inatitutious and over life and property.
