J The State Platferai. The democratic parly of Indiana takes just pride in ihe strength of the record it hts made in ihjgf'h^gtsialive and executive departments of this commonwealth by the enactment and enforcement ot wise and beneficient laws in the interest of the people aud fulfillment of its pledges. j ; STATE ISSUES. It4 passed the mechanic lien law and the law giving laborers a lien upon the product of their labor for wages and materials furnished, the law protecting labor organizations, the law providing for the safety of miners *tid the proper ventilation of mines, constituting efght hours a day's labor in public employment, prohibiting t*»e black-listing ot employes, prohibiting “pluck-me” stores, the employes liability law, forbidding the employment and importation of Pinkerton detectives, against the importation of alien or foreign labor. It enacted the school book law, saving large sums to the people, breaking down an oppressive monopoly and placing ihe Instruments of education within the reach of the poorest and humblest citizens; it enacted our existing laws purifying elections, giving an untrammeled ballot to the voter, and by the Australian ballot successfully preventing fraud and the intimidation of employes and others at the polls. It framed and passed our present tax law, thus adding millions of property to tinr tax duplicates; it passed the fee and salary laiv ; it enacted the Barrett improvement law, which has proven a blessing whereeVcr usedy^t also passed the 6tate boat'd of charities law, which has insured honest, humane and intelligent administration of our public institutions. All this has been accomplished, almost in every instance, in spite of the determined objection and opposition of the republican party. By this course of legislation, in fulfillment of pledges to the people of Indiana has been placed at the fore front of all the states in mailers of this kind, and kindred reform legislation, aud we pledge ourselves to the measure**, while* ihe republican party stands pledged, al the first opportunity, to destroy, either by repeal or or amendment, the most important of these wise laws.

THE TAX LAW. We congratulate the people of Indiana upon the upholding of the tax law of 1891, under which more than a hundred million? of dollars of corporate property has been added to the tax duplicate. And we especially commend the action of the state officers in charge in prosecuting and enforcing to a successful conclusion the provisions of said laws. AUAINsT PROTECTION. “ We reaffirm our opposition to the vicious system ol class legislation, miscalled protection, am. pledge ourselves to continue the battle against it until every species of extortion and robbery fostered by the McKinley act idiall be obliterated from our revenue system and our people enjoy all the blessings of commercial liberty. The protective system has built up the great monopolies and trusts which control absolutely so many industries ami have done so much to debauch the politics of the country and corrupt the legislative '}department of the government. We denounce tariff protecttou of every kind as a Iraud and a robbery eff the great majority of the American people for the benefit ot the few. We maintain that no tariff taxes should be levied except for the purpose of revenue only and that such taxes should be limited to the necessities ot the government, when honestly and economically administered.

We denounce tne McKinley tariff law enacted by the fifty-first congress as the culminating atrocity of class legislation. We approve the efforts of President Cleveland and his administration and of the democratic house of representatives aud of the large majority of democratic seuators, and particularly «>ur distinguished senators from from Indiana, the Hon. Daniel W. Voorhees and the Hon. David Turple, and our entire democratic delegation iu congress, to redeem the pledges made to the country by the last democratic national convention, and to execute the will of the American people, as expressed s«» emphatically at the ballot box in November 1892. We condemn the republican party for its persistent efforts to prevent the execution of this unmistakable popular verdict, and we especially condemn a ! small coterie of senators, who mas- | querading as democrats, by throats I to defeat all tariff legislation, have ! temporarily prevented the democrat- ; ic party from carrying out all of its ! pledges to till) people for tariff re- ■ form as announced i:i the democratic national platform of 1892. . We congratulate the democratic party aud the country upon the fact

that, notwithstanding the open op* position of the republican party and the conduct of a few pretended democrats, a subtantial measure of reform has been enacted; that many important raw materials ot our industries have been placed ou the free list;tliat a material reduction has been made in the duties on iron ore and coal aud that the tariff tax on nearly all classes of manufactured goods, including woolens and on the necessities of daily life have been very largely reduced. We approve the action of the house of representatives in following the enactment of this law with the passage of several acts, placing sugar, coal, irou ore and barbed wire on the free list and we demand that the senate shall concur in these righteous measures at the earliest possible moment. We especially iudorse the income tax as a wise and.equitable measure designed to place a lair share of the burdens of the government upon the property of the country, for the benefit of which the expenses of the government are9 so largely incurred. TAXING GREENBACKS. We iudorse the law passed by a democratic congress authorizing the taxation of greenbacks another money is taxed as a great measure of reform, and we take pride in the fact that the demand tor such reform was first formulated by the democracy of Indiana, and that it is due to the persistent and Intelligent efforts ot a democratic rcpresenative from Indiana that 'this reform has been embodied into law. We favor the prompt enactineut of a law by our next legislature, for the taxation of that class of money. FEDERAL ELECTION LAW. We most heartily indorse the action of the democratic congress in repealing the odious election law. ELECTION OF SENATORS.

We are in favor of a constitutional amendment providing lor the election of United States senators by direct vote of the people. We are also in favor of such constitutional and other changes as may be necessary in order that congress may assemble as soon after its election as practicable, and to the end that the will of the people, as expressed at the polls, may receive prompt and full legislative expression. A. P. A. DENOUNCED. We believe and declare that the policy and principles of what is called the American protective association are illiberal, unwise, unpatriotic undemocratic and un-American. In the spirit of that religious freedom, which characterizes our constitution and laws, and the spirit of that wise toleration and generous statesmanship which seeks to accord to all the rights and privileges of American citizenship, we call upon every man to do battle against such an organization. LABOR. The democratic party of Indiana is, as it has always been, the friend of the laboring man, of whom Us membership is so largely compo*ed. It is in hearty sympathy with every lawful effort to secure for those who earn their live!} hood by their daily toil full protection in all their rights as American citizens, to better the condition of their lives, to secure for them full and fair compensation for their labor and to afford them every possible opportunity for moral sociable and material advancement. We condemn the efforts that have been made, whether by the professed friends or the avowed enemies of our wage-workers, to identify their cause with the infamous conspiracies of lawlessness and anarchy which threaten the very foundations of so

cial order and civilisation. We are opposed to every manifestation of violence and mob spirit and stand squarely for the maintenance of law and order upon all occasions and under all circumstances. IMMIGRATION. We favor the enactment and enforcement of such laws regulating immigration from other countries as shall exclude the pauper and vicious classes, who are unfitted to become American citizens and whose presence in the country will furnish a standing menace to the order and prosperity of our land. THE REPUBLICAN PANIC. We denounce the unprincipled and cowardly effort of the republican party to escape the responsibility for the existing depressed condition of the business affairs of the country. This condition is the uatural, logical inevitable result of the infamously corrupt system of taxation known as McKiuieyism, combined with other vicious legislation and the profligate extravagance «t the republican party. ARBITRATION. We favor the establishment of a tribunal of arbitration in which there may be secured a peaceful settle

meut of all disputes between emplo\era and employes. SUMPTUARY LAWS. The democratic party is, as it ha* ever been, opposed to all sumptuary law as contrary to the principles ol free government, and favor the latgest individual liberty of the citizens consonant with good government. THE SILVER QUESTION. We indorse the repeal of the purchasing clause of that cowardly republican makeshift, the Sherman silver act of 1890. We reaffirm our belief that both gold and silver should be used as the money standard of the country, and that both should be coined without discriminating against either metal and without charge for mintage. * We believe it absolutely necessary to the welfare and prosperity of the gread producing masses that silver should be restored to the place it occupied in the currenc) systems of the world a quarter of a century ago, and we hail with delight the many signs of a revolution in public opinion in the great commercial nations in favor of a restoration of the bimetallic system. We pledge our hearty efforts to secure the adoption of every measure for the complete restoration of silver to its proper place in our monetary system, either through international agreement or by such safeguards of legislation as shall insure the maintenance of the parity of the two metals, and the equal power of every dollar at all times in the markets and in the payment of debts; and we demand that all paper currency shall be kept at par and redeemable in such coin. HAWAII.

We declare that the present national administration has acted wisely and honorably in permitting the people of Hawaii, unawed by our naval or military forces to manage their owu domestic concerns and to place their country in the fainilv ot republics. CLEVELAND AND MATTHEW8. We heartily indorse the able, tearless and patriotic administration ot Grover Cleveland and especially his course in maintaining law and order We heartily indorse the wise and patriotic administration of Governor Matthews, whose conduct as a public servant has called forth the commendation of the people of every state in the union and placed our state in the foremost ranks for good government, and cordially commend the action and conduct of our several state officers. CONCERNING FENSIUN8. We remember with gratitude the patriotic services of the soldiers and sailors of the late war, and recognize the tact that, after the elapse of thirty years, by reason of the hardships, privations and exposure of army life, manv are passiug away and others becoming more helple.-s. We there* tore dfcmand that congress, in the matter of pensions, shall not only deal generously, but bountifully with those aged veterans. We also reiterate the declaration of our cbnvention m 1892.*\hat the state should provide by liberal appropriation for the support of a home where our disabled veterans, with their wives, may be supported without sending them to alinhouses.
