Massachusetts has a silver cine that yields f ICO to a ton of ore. There is euphony in the ticket. Tilden and Hendricks sounds well.

Congress baa bridged over the appropriation dead-lock for the present by exier ding the time of th present appropriations for ten days. The postal service .will not be discontinued to-day.

And now for Another calculation. I Gen. Manson say that any man who could control tb'j gt. Louis Convention and overcome uch opposition as Gov. Tilden d'd cavt be beaten. He will win the rest of the campaign as surely aa be did the filmst battle. Cason of the Ninth district, who failed to cet renominated, comes out in a cara ratifying the nomination of his old foe, Mike White. It must be a bitter pill, but the Judge comes down submissively and waves the bloody shirt with frantic energy. The Kansas City Times was a hot oppo nent of Governor Tilden before the nomination, but it gracefully accepts the situation on the general and truthful propo sition that financial as well as civil service reform can only be looked for through the Democratic party. The Sentinel nas authority lor announc ing that the Hon. J. D. New of the Fourth district declines to be a candidate lor re election to Ooneress. Tbl announcement will be regretted by all, a? Judge New has made an enviable record already as an able legislator, and In such times as tb.ese the best men should continue at the helm. The speeches of Judge New during the pa?t stsilon of Congrees will compare favorably with the ablest delivered. In the opinion of the Hon. Charles Francis Adams H1s the Republican party who are guilty of dissimulation. He says ot the platfcrm tbtt "it is weak, especially in the financial plank. This was an endeavor to catch both the 'soft and 'hard money men." Another writer says that the difference "between the Democrats and Republicans on this question is the difference between honetty and hypocrisy. The former distinctly and emphatically demands the repeal of the resumption law; the latter prevaricates and promises what it does not cspect or intend to perform. Yet these Republicans have a great deal to say about indecision, riding two horses and straddling the fence. In the same way they talk about reiorm, when In fact the motive power which drives their machine la a controlling desire to perpetuate ring rule and publicplunder. If the rainy weather continues much longer, the sad experience of last year in the loss of the wheat and gtaes crcp3 seems liker- to be repeated. It is true there is mucb less wheat in this -state to lose, for the crop at best is but a poor one in most sections. But it Is nowxeady to be harvested, and for the last three weeks there has been scarcely a day without showers, many of them very heavy. The corn crop premises well, but that must Boon suffer from such excess of tnolsture. Already the hope of a corn crop on the broad prairies of Illinois is pretty mucb drowned oat. The corn has got but a very little start, while the weeds have taken lall peesession of the fields. Meantime, it is impossible for farmers to do anything to help matters, aa tbe prairies are little better than one grand swamp 9t mad and water. We I)rm4 Change." The above embodies the whole case cammed up in the Democratic platform, and it is the unanimous voice of the people. Republicans concede the necessity of turning over a new leaf. Grantism has no defenders. But the Republican politicians prr pose to divert the people with promises of "reform within the party." They did ihis same thing in 1872. lEven then it was cecessary to appease the public discontent with abuses and tendencies which had become alarming. The people demanded a change. Republicans answered.You shall have it, extravagance hall be checked, corruption shall be cnearthed, dishonesty punished and integrity restored in the public service. It is only necessary to revert to the aventa of the past three years to see what eaeb promises coming trom the party o rings are worth. It is dot Intended to keep them. .They are suade to deceive the people and to win support for a new lea a of pewer. Can anybody be deceived -a secoad time in the same way? Is It possible to suppose that soy xnaterial reform will -be made by a set of party leaders who will have' the blocdof any honest official like Taryan, whom the president was lately f rqed t remove at the instance of three or (our senators because of hii in-j dustry.and efficiency in tbe .pursuit of füeial vLUainy ? Will a party-which, by its leaders in the Senate, refuses to permit a retrenchment In publie oipendltures attempted to ba made by a Democratic House t atd that 600 In tbe very face of a demand by the natioD, will a ten a party carry out reform when it is Installed In pow.Gr? No. A change of measures must be secured by cbang of men aa of party ascendency. It is worse than idle, it is stupid and little lew than crixalnal to yield a second time to such barefaced deception. Investigations and partial retributions may check the boldoesa of official rascality. Bat to uproot it at one stroke, to" overturn the whole mass of dishonesty there must be a change oi administration. The entire ring system down to tbe deepest foundations, must be displaced and a new civil service in stituted. This is the Isaae of campaign which is now opened, the one band It i-i to perpetuate and establish a condition of afiäirs in the tbe On public which has justly alarmed everybody at home and disgraced the nation abroad. Oa the other, the Democratic platform proposes a complete and radical change In the conduct of affairs. It baa been said by some that there ia no great question at issue between the two parties, that It la merely a contest between men for tbe supremacy. On the contrary, the

ly as ever.

Issue is clearacd well defined. It is one of those emergencies which might naturally be expected to ar!se in a republic,

which the Idea of popular elections contemplates a peaceable change o rolers. It is not needlul to argue the necessity of reiorm. That is at last forced upon the public mind. But it is necessary to direct attention to the way in which it muBt be accomplished. The administration must be placed in new hands, and all the machinery of the cjvll service reconstructed by men who honestly intend to reform Us abuses. This 'tn ry be done by giving the ascendancy to another party. What the DarcHQ (a form proposes, its ticket gives insurance will be carried out a thoroughgoing reform In the mans'eQQeQt of government from tcp to Detern No 'one can doubt that. No one. tan deny that the ticket made at St Louts is in Itself a guarantee ttat theo'Qangeof administration proposed will accomplish what all desire a return to bor.esty, economy, and a primary regard for the nation's welfare. Tbe Two Tickets. The Democratic party in convention at St.LoKlsbad opportunities exceptionally favorable to benefit the country, and the question now is, "Was the convention true to the trust confided to it by the people?" We hold that In an eminent degree the contention has met every reasonable expectation. In this discufsion ; personal preferences must be dismissed, collateral issues ignored and sectional rivalries disregarded. The work performed, the principles declared and the motives that prompted the final action of the convention only should be considered. To wrangle now Is to insure defeat. To take a calm survey of the field, to map out future operations, to take counsel together for the purpoeeot insuring harmonious action are the plain duties devolvicg upon Democrats in all of the Btates. If there are divisions, heal them ; and for disappointment, let the panacea, be work and victory. TheSentinel bad its preferences, and worfced with becoming zeal and fidelity to secure their recognition., "but we do not;propose, now nor hereafter, to indicate a purpose to rule or ruin. On the contrary, having submitted . all the questions surrounding the presidential campaign to the national council of tbe party, we propose to abide its decision and work for success. In lbis, we in common with Democrats throughout tbe country, need not hesitate for incentives calculated 'to arouse the largest measure of patriotic seal and determination. The platform demands reform and boldly sets forth in what regards reform is tbe supreme necessity of the times. The people, never more oppressed, were never more in earnest in the matter of reform. Having made a platform singularly free from meaningless words, tbe convention proceeded to place upon it candidates whose names are familiar as household words, whose private lives and public records challenge scrutiny, whoto integrity is above suspicion whose patriotism is not doub:eJ even !r, tbe councils of tbe enemy, and whose lives, characters, and official acts, give areurancr that admit of no misgivings, that if elected to the cfXLcei for which they bave been nominated, reform in every department of the government is secured teyond a peradventure. More than this, as a result of the deliberations of the National Democratic Convention, it woe Id bave been supreme folly to have demanded or expected. It was largely within the range of possibilities for the convention to have committed serious, If -not fatal mistakes, to have enunciates a vuineraDie piatiorm ana named candidates who would have - inspired neither respect nor enthusiasm. Tue Republican party prophesied mistakes, prayed for mistakes and rejoiced in the belief that mistakes would be made, but Instead of mistakes, tbe enemies of the Democratic party and the enemiescf good government -are confronted with a platform that is their death warrant, andAvith candidates who ia their liycs, private, and public, represent) those exalted virtues and abilities-calculated to add new toster and dignity id tho 'responsible f osidone :bey will be called upon to fill. The ticket, Tilden and Hendtlcks, could ban2!y be improved -cpon. Hendricks and Tilden, or Hen i ricks and some other distlngnished Damocrat would have been preferable to the Senti nel, but as we ifcave before said .diarxi?sicg all personal preference, and viewleg the ticket from a standpoint more elavated than more personal consideration, we feel fr-ee to declare that, jUI things considered, we dooLt if a more forcoidaUa ticket could have been made. Miarethaa this, we challenge for the Democratic ticket A comparison with any that has been submitted to the Americ an people for fifty years past. And just Jure we take oeeas Ion to a&k the attentioR of our readers to a ew etriking.'y significant facta llastratLre of the cvlde difference In the motives that prompted tbe nominations at St. Louis aad Cincinnati At CinclQBAtl representative men of the Republican party wera slasgbtereJ, thrust aside, for no other reason ttaa that they were distinguished. Mor on and Blaine and Conkllng were living embodiments of Republicanism; tbey had drank at its fountains bloody and muddy; they bad breathed an atmosphere impregnated with it; tbey bad grown with its development, and were great and Influential Just id proportion as Rapubllcanlsm had be come a pwer in the land. Thoy asked the party to Indorse them, to place upon their foreheads not thtf( brand of Cain, but tbe diadem of approval. The result Is known. These great men of

the party were struck dov and trampled j

upon iu iUO chamber of the party, and H.ye nnknowrjf Bman in comparison, Rnd steadlly growing less as üb lw jomes the focal center of observation, waa thrust into prominence and the gre At lights of the party were snuffed oul' orrer. To find a tsil lor such a bead v. S no difficult task, and the completed ticketHayes and Wheeler Is before the country. Its weakness is universally conceded, and, paradoxical though it be, its 1 wer.knees Is its strength, and all of its strength. A Republican ticket, it Is claimed that it does not represent Republicanism, and hence is something better to catch votes than could bave been manufactured out of Morton, Blaine and Conkllng materials. In contrast with this ticket, the Democratic party can point with just pride to the Si. Louis nominations. Mea ot national reputation were selected Tilden, tbe governor of a state containing a larger population than tbe thirteen states when George Washington was president, bidding defiance to cliques and factions, boldly attacking the plunderers of tbe treasury, unearthing long-established frauds and pursuing thieves to conviction, are evidences of heroic, ag&resire honesty that is wanted iu the office of president ot tbe United btates, and nothing less than this grand virtue, pushed to the front by a will that will gather strength as obstacles become more formidable, will answer the demand. If reiorm, general and sweeping, is to ba S3cured, Tildan possesses in an eminent decree the qualities required for the work. But the convention did more than nominate Tilden cf New Ycrk, and, Governor Hardin of Missouri, when be said that tbe vice president should betbepaer of the president, gave utterance to a sentiment that meets with a hearty response throughout the country; and tbe convention, by nominating Governor Hendricks for vice president, set tbe seal of its approval upon Governor Hardin's declaration. With Tilden and Hendricks tbe ticket is aa near perfection aa political conventions ever arrive. In the progress of tbe campaign it will be subjected to merciless criticisms. Tbe Republican party having selected pigmies as their etandard-beareis, will seek to dwarf the giant proportions of tbe Democratic chieltaln". Those who anticipate fair play from Rspublican orators or or gans may as well dismiss the Idle dream Fortunately the Democratfc platform and ticket will bear a combined attack, and It we are not mistaken, the more they are attacked tbe less will tbey be demolished. They will develop strength under fire, and those who will rally to their defense will not avoid any ordeal that may be forced upon them to test the principles of the platform or the integrity of the candidates. Tbe old game of crushing truth to earth is played out. Truth haa broken tbe fetteis with which -the Republican party kept her bound for many years, and, Bince she is free again, investigations are likely to go forward, and it is sale to - say that before tbe conflict is ended t.he Republican party, ticket and all, will go down, but not to rise again. The party, during its brief authority, has filled to the brim a larger measure of iniquities than any other party that ever had an existence in ttis or any other country, and tbe fantastic trick of nominating Hayes and Wheeler is a fit ting finale to a career of fraud and folly. TJae Watchword, Jtefbrm. The one all-important question that now invites the attention of the American people is that of reform. This is now no noI lineal catchword, upon which to invoke p9rty enthusiasm. It is a deep-felt neces I Bity, Involving all that is valuable in Amer lean citia unship. Tbe Republican party has bad control of tbe government in time of peace for nearly a dozen years, during which the expenses have Increased to a most alaxning extent by tbe most reckless system ot extravagance. Taxation direct and indirect is simply eiormous. tEvery man eels it, and is groaning under tlx. In IHM tbe federal Ux tion was one hundred and fifty millions of dollars. What la thore in the increased service of the government that in ten years should increase it to the enormous sum of ?750, -OO0.0C0? Add the interest oa the public debt, say 120,000,000, and for tensions 30,OOC.000 more, making a legitimate increase of 5150,000,000. Yet $450,000,000 more bave been expended by the administration in its extravagance, 50,000,OOC .of which would have beon ample for the satural increate by reason of tbe growth of tbe nation. Yet tbe Republican parly bave goneon recklessly, year after year, until financial ruin threatens tbe whole masses of the people. The question is simple. Tbe matter Is plain, It needa no extended elaboration. The drain of taxation by which the people tare been forced to pay sines 1860, mora than three times the whale amount of the national 4lebt, baa been so burdensome and de structive that every eight of the cilUsn demands that he shall no longer eadare it, bat awaken to tbe .cross enormity of ibe wrong and shake it aff. There la bu one road leading out cf the difficulties that oppress tbe nation, uad that Is to decrease the expinses of tba government : and lighten taxation in every respect. We must bave frugality in evep department of the government. And tbe people demand it as an imperative necessity. The issue, therefore, is a very aimple one. The Democratic House of Congress, after due examination and deliberation, bave concluded that the annual appropriations may be reduced about f6tf.000,000.v Tbe Republican Senate refuse to permit this to be done, and it is threatened by tbe administration that tbe

machinery of the government shall be stopped to-day unless the House shall suffer the expenses to go on and high salaries to'contlnue. The Issue comes up at an opportune moment. Bjth political parties bave just entered upon the contest for control of the government with their platforms and standard-bearers. The issue proposed Ly the Democracy is reform. What is meant is clearly defined. It is a decrease of expenses. It Is economy. It is to step wasteful extravagance and permit the reproductive energies of the nation to recuperate, without being drained by unnecessary taxation. Can anything be more simple and plain? If a man Is in debt and bis expenses are greater than bis Income, tbe only possible and 'rational way ot extricating himself from certain embarrassment is ly curtailing expenses. This is what the Democracy propose to do. This is what the House of -Representatives is trying to do. Our platform pledges this reform, and our standard bearers will carry out these promises. Tbe name ol Mr. Tilden la a pledge in itself ot what his administration will be. He aided in New York city to wrest the metropolitan government from the bands ot thieves. He hR made successful battle against tbe canal ring, that has been a standing reproach to that state for 3 ears, and he is just the man to separate the government of the United States from tbe bands of ita despoilers, who have been bleeding tbe nation through a thousand separate veins. Oa the otter hand, the Republican party platform confesses to these frauds up?n the treasure of the nation by likewise demanding reform and honesty in official stations. But what pledge can that party give to tbe country of doing any better in tbe future than in the past? Simply none. What ever may be said of the purity of personal character in Mr. Hayes, he is not the mao to make the contest with the leaders of that party who have for years stood by aDd seen the treasure of the nation corruptly wasted, or actively engaged in tbe pillage themselves. Mr. Hayes was in Congress during tbe time wh6n the subsidy lobbyists ran riot in the capitol. It Is not recorded tl at be ever raised h'.s voice against It. He had not tbe courage to cope with it then, nor will be bave tbe courage now to resist the demands of the Mortons, the Conklings, the Blaine, the Lozans, tbe Camerons, who will surround bim, and, as in tbe past, fill the offices of the country with corrupt men. The very same element that surrounds Grant, today and defeata in the Sanate tbe reform proposed by the House will control Mr. Hayes and no reform need to be expected lrom that direction. Can the people of thia country be so blind

as to not see wherein their true interest lies in this contest, and determine tbe source from which reform shall come? Do they want or will tbey consent that this corrupt administration, which baa so abused the nation sball be perpetuated in spirit and practice by yielding it again into their hands? If tbey care nothing for tht.lr own interest, notb in for pnrity In government, then let tbe plunderers eo on. But if reform Is wauted, if light taxes are de slrable, if honest men are ta be placed In cfilce, then the way to attain these ends seems plain and palpable. Tilden and Hendricks means reform Hayes and Wheeler, a perpetuation of the same ex travagance that has wasted tbe national resources for a dozen yearB. Laud O cants and Grabs. In another column will be found a tabu lated statement of tbe grants of land made by tbe Republican party to railways and other corporations. The amount will as tonish the people. The grants and grabs ia extent are -simply astounding, they absolutely tax the credulity o tbe rro3t credulous. For prod'eacy they have no parallel in the history of legislation. To trust a party that has been guilty ot such stupendous robberies la equivalent to the indorse ment of piracy. It ia a part of tbe record of the Republican party, and ia strictly in keeping with its practices of sconndrelism from the -day it obtained -power. . Two hundred and seventy-eight thousand seven hundred and fifty-eight cquare miles of the best lands belonging to tbe pub lic 'domain have been given away to enrich various -corporation to make rich men richer and poor men poorer. These landlords are now asking poor men to por chase their lands at prices rangirg from 12 0 to $10 per acra. Look at tbe grand area. Larger than twelve states such as New Hampshire, Vermoi t, Massechuseti?, Rhode Ishnd, Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Dela ware, Maryland, Ohio and Indiana com bined. This is tbe party which now baa the brazan effrontery to ask the American people to continue its lease of power. Look at the figures and decide. The Indiana Delegation at St. Loa Is The News criticises tbe action of the In diana delegation at St. Louis, and asserts that ita management waa weak and faulty. Oar contemporary does lr justice to the gentlemen who represented the Interest of our distinguished governor at the late onventlon. Tbey fonnd a well organized and compact body in front of them, commanded by men skilled in all tbe artifices ot political warfare, ard backed op by tbe entire local Democrst.c press of St. Louis. The Indlanians were alert and active, but it was apparent on Monday morning preceding the convention, that the nomination of Govern ir Tilden waa' a foregone conclusion. Indeed, there never was a time from Sunday evening before the convention until the nominations were

made when any other result than that which was reached waa possible. Notwithstanding this, the Indiana delegation

worked with a will beping against hope until the ballots were cat. Their course. was the admiration of the delegates from other states, and declared by tbem to bave been prudent ana wlee. After Mr. Tilden was nominated, some of the delegates were so chagrined and mcr.ififld that they per mitted their tempera tj get the better ot their Judgment, but under the circum stances, this may be excused, as it was at the time bv those whn were on the ground. No " man everhad more devoted friends than had Governor Hendricks at St. Louis, and few more efficient ones. They did the best that waa possible under the circumstances, and although they failed to accomplish that lor which they strove, their campaign was conceded by these who measured swords with them to have been an able one, and one which added t3 tbe reputation and honor of the distinguished man in whose Interest it waa made. HOW THE TICKET TAKES. The Strongest Combination That Could Have Been Made. VICTORY IN THE AIR. WILL WIJC. IN. Y. Sud.I -Thomas A. Hendricks will do for vice president along with our Uncle Samuel. ' He will preside with dignity and fairness over the Sarate. He declined the nomina tion before it wa? made, but will accept now. It is a very stroDg ticket, and it will win. WHEELS INTO LINE. Cutlington Gazette. The Gazette therefore wheels quarely into line with the great Democratic party in tbe nation, in its coming fight against monopoly, oppression and wrong. All minor questions and differences must now be healed, and the party present an unbroken front to the enemy. From hence forth we are for Gov. Tilden, and shall advocate bis election, and. that of bis distinguished colleague, with all tbe energy and fldeli y with which we would have advocated our choice had it been given ut HESOKICKS WITHOUT A PEER. Nashville American. Hendricks, as governor of the State of Indians, stacds aloue, without a peer in the West, as a statesman, and the chief magistrate of an economically conducted commonwealth. He was elected governor ot that state wben tbe Republican party carried tbe country by the largest popular majority it ever polled, and when -all the Democratic state ticket but bim were defeated. His immense popularity, with tbe strong Democratic fctaie ticket in the field In Indians, will carry tbatjstate in November. REMARKABLE TRIBUTE. Philadelphia Times. It was a remarkaDle tribute that the St. Louis Convention paid to Governor Hendricks. After rejecting him as a candidate for tbe presidency, it practically confessed that it could not hope to win without bim, and insisted upon bis taking the second place upon the ticket, in spite of the protests of bis friends, who, having no reason to love Tilden, probably felt in their disappointment that tbey did not very much cara whether be won or net. However,, tbe ticket is now complete, and whatever else may be said ot It, it certainly can not be called feeble. The Democracy baa put forward ita strongest and ablest representative men, and it It fail with tbem it will net fail discreditably. WILL fWEIP THE LASDBoston PoeU Tilden and Hendricks!

With such men and such a platform there can be no failure. Success is certain. Ol tbe platform we shall bave something to say berealter. We present it to our readers this morning In full, with tbe accompanyinjr resolutions. It is forcible, Judicious and to the point. It demands tbe repeal of theresumption act. Upon this point Democracy baa now taken a ttand. We can support It throughout with all our heart and aouL ' REINSPIRIJ0 AND R EIN 8URI'Q, Brocklyn Eagle.

As a feat of reform the nomination of Mr. Tilden washailed at onoe as pre-eminent. Aa a feat of wise and high politics, the combination of Mr. Hendricks' nam6 with Mr. Tilden' arouses admiration and a conviction of destined success. The Friday evening prayer meeting merita of Mr. Hayes show drab and small by tbe aide of the vigorous abilities and aggressive genius and achievements of Mr. Tilden. Nor does the latter have to part with any ot his estate of fame to loan it to bis associate. Mr. Hendricks is a large, positive, historical quantity In Democratic politics and in the annala of American statesmanship. TALLS IlfTO LISE. The Terre Haute Journal. Tbe ticket of Tilden and Hendricks has canaed a great panic among the Republicans. No national ticket was ever pre tented .with the names of such - leaders.
