fend the course of the few Democratic Senators who opposed it. Whan the bill, however, was presented for the signature of the executive, inspired and guided by that architect of ruin, John Sherman, and upheld by his entire cabinet, he returned it with his veto, thus defying as powerful a public opinion as wAs •ever developed on any question in this •country. An endorsement of the present administration is an endorsement of this act as well as of the general .financial policy of Secretary Sherman. Could the administration have enforced its wishes the coinage of the American jsilver dollar would never have been resumed, and this favorite money woild have been forever banished from their midst. Let it be borne in mind that the silver dollar was restored in spite ot a Republican administration, and that its restoration originated in the Democratic
House. The bilifor the repeal of the resumption act fared much worse in the Senate than the silver bill. It was compelled to remairn unnoticed and unconsidered en the table of the finance committee of that body more than five 4iionths. It was with the greatest diffi•cultv, and onl by persistent efforts that -it secured a hearing at all. It was finely defeated in committee, and a substitute adopted in its stead. Even the substitute which contained spme measures of popular relief, was along lime denied a hearing in the Senate after it wae reported to that body. Upon a test vote between the adoption of the substitute and tl»e bill as it came from the House ther substitute eventually prevailed by one majority, thus defeating the repeal ol the resumption act in the Senate. The fact, therefore, should be constantly borne in miiid that but for the action of the Senate the resumption act would not this Lour be standing as a fatal threat to the country the binks would not be hoarding their circulation in fear of resumption, and prosperity would be "springing up around us. Does some one answer that, withstanding the failure to repeal the resumption act, prosperity is returning to the country? Is there any one here who has been deluded by that false "assertion so often heard, that the worst is over that the bottom has been reached, and there being no furtherdepths of business calamity to fathom, we must necessarily be emerging int® a better condition? If so, let me call his attention to the disrpal bankrupt record of the United States during the last sir months. By the report of a well known mercantile agency ofNe.v York we are furnished with the following instructive statement of facts:
During the first six months of the year S7 ej the business failures numbered 3,56)3, having liabilities to the amount of '$76,344, 266. During the first six months of the year 1876 similar business failures reached .46,000, leaving unpaid liabilities to the amount of $108,415,329. During the first six months 01 tlic year 1877 those who failed in business numbered 4,777, and therr liabilities reached the sum of $99,606,171. But the first six months of the present year, 1S76, are darker than all their predecessors. During the period fron^ January to July, the jreeont month,5,898 business men "have been reduced to bankruptcy, and the debts which they were unable to pay reached the enormous sum of $130,832,776. The imagination of man in its highest development can form no adequate conception of the sorrows, the bitter, hopeless tears, the agonizing sobs of grief, the sensation of despair, the broken hearts, the blighted lives which these dreadful figures represent. Not merely those who appear in this statement as bankrupts are borne to the earth by misfortune. Laboring men and women who are dependent upon the prosperity of business for an opportunity to earn their bread have been made to drain their cups of misery in silence. No herald proclaims the sufferings of the humble poor the Scribes and Pharisees pass by on the other tide. "In the mad and determined effoit to reach what is de nominated a specie basis how few even pause to reflect on the awful penalty wh'ch the people have been forced to suffer in order to attain that object!
However desirable an object may be however much the human heart may long for what it conceives to be a great good, yet there may be sacrifices 60 hor rible required in its pursuit that they would render that good an unmixed evil. The resumption of specie payment has been proclaimed the height Of American statemanship and yet to attain it the prosperity of the country has been trodden into the dust, and battered out of all shape and recognition. The poverty, the desolation, the indescribable sorrow ot private tamiliii which this policy has cost can never be expiated nor will those who have fastened this policy on the country with its broad tfack of ruined lives ever be forgotten or forgiven by .the American people. The servile •castes of the East Indies with a blind and ignorant faith, worship the Jugger naut and feel no resentment when mangled and crushed by their hideous deity.
It is not so, nor will it ever be with the American people. They will not worship at a cruel, heahless shrine. They will rather teach their children, and their children's children to execrate the authors of their misfortunes."
The contraction of the currency being the fundamental cause of our 'general business depression, the Democratic House of Representatives, during the last session, originated and passed bill ^prohibiting the secretary of the treasury from cancelling or retiring another dollar .of the greenback currency, from whatever source received into the treasury, and compelling him to re-issue the same for circulation. This wholesome and just'measure finally became a l«w. It passed the Senate under the management and control of Democratic Senators. This law, it is true, hab been slow 'In coming, but it is equally true that it •would n»a hare come at all but or the ascendancy of the Democrat party in one branch of Congress, and its power and approaching ascendancy in the other.
Another measure of almost equal importance originated in the House and passed that body. Nothing could be more just on the part of the government tban for it to-receive its own money for at# own .dues. A bill was, therefore, in
troduced into the House and passed that body, making legal-tender notes receivable the same as coin in payment of duties on imports. Such a measure is not only an act of justice in itself but it is also a well-deserved mark of honor to the greenback currency, aiding it to stand on an equality with the precious metals. The Senate did not act on this House bill, but, after a severe contest, passed a similar measure, coupling it with a proposition to authorize the Secretary of the Treasury to receive the legal-tender currency in exchange for four per cent, government bonds. The House rejected this latter proposition, fearing that it might enable the present Secretary, even in spite of the law to the contrary, to retire and hoard the currency received in exchange for bonds. The other provision, making duties payable in greenbacks, 'was again pasted by the House, and reached the Senate the last day of the session. It was defeated simply by that rule of the Senate which enables a single objection to prevent the second reading of a bill on the same day it is called up. As your representative I pressed it until the last moment, and saw it expire with the close of the session under the parliamentary objection.
In summing up, therefore, the work of the present Congress the great fact plainly appears that the Democratic House has originated and led in every measure which the people have demanded for their relief. It is also true that the Democratic party, aided by a few Republicans and still more by an aroused, and concentrated public opinion has given the hitherto arrogant and insolent money power its first staggering blow in the legislation of the country. Some progress has been made some good has tieen done some steps have been taken in the right direction, and they will not be retraced. The people are at last aroused to their danger and their rights. They intend to reform our financial system and place it in harmony with their own interests. They are alive to the fact that an active and determined conspiracy is at work to bring our government, through the power of capital, into harmony with the institutions of Great Britain. They behold the dangers which threaten their ownerships of the soil, the the title to their homes. The scarcity of money, produced by the policy of the government, has compelled a large por tion of the farmers, especially of the west, to mortgage their farms to eastern loan associations in order to obtain a currency on which to do business. It is the plain constitutional duty of the government to furnish to its people a circulating medium equal to their business wants. But instead ot doing this a policy has prevailed which has driven the land owners of the country to the counters of usurers, and money changers, to raise, money on the title deeds to their homes. It has been estimated that the loan associations of the east hold mortgages on western farms to the amount of over $300,000,000. I believe this to be an under instead of an over estimate, and on this vast sum of borrowed money, the rate of interest is not less than ten per cent., making an annual drain on four or five states in the Mississippi valley of over $30,000,000 per annum. The mind recoils from the terrible results which must follow this condition of affairs. Ten per cent, interest will as certainly bankrupt a tarmer, a merchant, or a business man of any description, who is engaged in a legitimate business, as fire will burn the dry stubble of the fields. The grasshopper of the plains are not more destructive to every green and growing thing in their reach, than ten per cent, interest is to the life of business. The dwellers in Egypt could far better endure all the scourges sent upon them, locusts, •lice, .frogs, darkness, and the plague than the laboring, business people of the Mississipi#valley can endure ten per cent, interest on their debts. It will suck their life blood to the last drop, and leave them as tenants, paying rent to distant landlords, where they are now owners in fee simple. I earnestly believe, and hope that these gi eat and awful facts are sinking deep in every intelligent mind in the land. The seeds of financial reform have been sown broad cast, and they are springing up in every direction. I believe and hope that a work has been commenced which will not end until the government in its dealings with the people on the vital questions of finance and taxation shall be once more a government of the people. And in this mighty movement where stands the Republican party of Indiana at this hour? 1 hold its platform ot' principles, adopted June 5th, in my hands. It is a most extraordinary productioh. Its second declaration is to the effect that the people have a high and sacred right to meet together and discus* their grievances. It is therefore astounding to find in the same document the following deliberately drawn proposition: '•Opposition to further financial agitation ^stability in one financial system being essential to business prosperity."
It would appear from this platform that the peopie are to be permitted to discuss and compare views, and resolve upstt every subject beneath the sun ex cept that which is of a greater temporal importance than all others—the subject of taxation, debt, food, clothing, and all that pertains to the domestic welfare of the human race. If the people have a grievance against their churches they may discuss it it' they are dissatisfied with their school laws they may debate them if public improvemente are proposed they may have as much controversy as they choose in relation to them if public officials commit malfeasance they may institute measures of reform, and cry afodd, and spare not, but the doctrine of the Republican leaders in Indiana tj-day is that under no circumstances shall the people hereafter agitate the question of finance that as things are, on that vital question, so they must remain, "stability in one financial system being essential to business pros perity," alihougn that sv6tem may be an organized crime against nine-tenths of the entire population of the United States. Those who pay everything must not talk those who toil from sun to sun to meet the burdens of their government must do it in silence The drones in the hive are content* they are living on the honey gathered by the laboring bees, and their voice is heard in opposition to any enquiry into their right to live in idle luxury. It is not anew voice in the history of the world. It has
JA.-VF
ten. Wherever the tyrany of privileged classes has entrenched itself a protest against agitation has always been heard. Agitation is the soul of liberty, equality, and progress. It has marked every 6tep ever taken in the tide of human advancement When the Saviour of men came upon earth he brought agitation as a purifying whirlwind, He proclaimed anew light anew dispensation, new thoughts, and a new impulse of progression to all the generations of mankind. The Scribes, the Pharisees, the Saducees, the learned men of Israel fixed in their traditions, cried out against this mighty agitator. They proclaimed Him an incendiary,a teacher of sedition, a communist, and disturber of ancient systems of laws.
The pages of profane history are al«o full of illustrations with which to embellish the Indiana Republican platform. When Charles, the first of England determined to govern without a parliament, and raise money by his royal prerogative, he encountered an agitation as hateful to him as the financial agitation of this country is to an untaxed bondholder, or a money lender at ten per cent, on mortgaged farms. Hampden, and his associates, in their opposition to the payment of the ship money, were denounced by royalty and aristocracy, as pernicious demagogues, and held up to derision. The agitation however shook down the throne, laid a tyrants head on the block, and engrafted on the government of England, every principle of safety to the citizen which distinguishes it from an absolute despotism.
It was Edmund Burke who exclaimed "I love clamor when there is an abuse. The alarm bell disturbs the inhabitants, but saves them from being burnt in their beds."
There was a period also in our own history when opposition to further agitation was the favorite cy of an active class of politicians who met with disastrous overthrow. The tories of the American revolution did not believe in the agitation which followed the attempt of Great Britian to tax the colonies withqut representation. They resolved against it in almost the exact language of the Indiana Republican platform, and predicted that tragic events would follow if it was persisted in. Bunker Hill followed Yorktown followed, the constitution, the starry flag, and immortal glory followed. They were all born of agitation, and are the offspring of a great race of agitators. George the Third commanded Washington, Jefferson, Franklin, Adams, Patrick Henry, and John Hancock to cease all financial agitation on the question of unjust taxation, and he transported armies to our shores, and fought bloody battles in order to enforce silence and silbmis-
He too thought, from his standpoint, as the managers of the Republican state convention did from theirs, that 'stability in our financial system was essential to business prosperity." It mattered not to the British tyrant that his system of finance was a lawless robbery. It suited him all the better for that reason, and he fought 6even years to put down agitation againstJit.JNor does it matter to the Republican leaders, in Indiana that our system of finance has strewn the whole land with the wrecks of business more thickly than the sea shore was ever strewn with fragments of ruin after the fiercest hurricane had swept the face of the great deep. It does not matter to them that the bankrupt liabilities growing out this system have reched over two thousand millions of dollars that the value of property in the United States has shrunk in the last seven years more than onefourth, thereby destroying over ten thous and millions of the actual wealth of the ccuntry that mffe than three million of of people are to-day idle, thrown out of employment by the paralysis of those great industries which afford laboring men and women an opportunity to earn their bread. There is a wail of distress and a voice of warning which they seem not to have heard. When a whole family in one of our large cities were recently found dead from starvation, some one embodied this voice of warning and of woe in' the following lines: "Oh, you paid and trusted leaders,
Listen, while*you hold your breath In this land of bible readers Men and women starve to death."
These leaders, however, have filled their ears, not with cotton in this instance, but with untaxed bonds, the div: idends of national hanks, and the percentage of vast loans on western farms, and they wrap themselves in the strange delusion that they will be obeyed when they impiouslv command a sore-hearted, outraged people to cease their murmurs and be still. I will not say that any asylum of any kind should be built for the trainers of this platform, but it is hard to find a parallel to their conduct in the annals of reasonable men. The nearest approach to their blidness and folly is to be found in the conduct of the king in an cient story, who was persuadad by his obsequious courtiers to believe that the swelling tides of the ocean would obey his puny voice, and who in this belief issued the command that the waters should cease their restless agitation. The waters, however, did not cease to ebb and flow, nor will the aroused and enlightened public opinion of this country sink down in calm contentment, and tepose, until this vast question of finance and taxation shall be settled in the interest of taxpaying laborers The agitation will con tinue until the financial principles contained in the platform of the Indiana Democratic state convention of February 22 shall be enacted substantially into laws. I call the attention of the voters of Indiana to the bold, ringing utterances of that platform and to the issues which spring up between it and the platform of the Republican party. "The Democracy of the State of Indiana assembled in delegate convention declare:
That national bank notes sh&U be retired and in lien thereof there shall be issued by the government an equal amount of treasury notes with full legal tender quality. ••That we are in favor of making the United States notes, commonly called greenbacks, a full legal tender in payment of all debts, public and private, except such obligations only as are by the terms of .the original contracts under which they were issued, expressively payable in. coin.

sound business interests of the country may from time to time require. "We are in favor of such legislation by Congress as will authorize the taxation by the States of the United States notes in common with all other money. ''That we deem it unwise and inexpedient to enact any further legislation for the funding of the national debt abroad, through the means of home syndicates or other methods and we believe the true policy of the government and the best interests of the people would «be subserved by legislating so as to distribute such debt among the people at home affording them the most favorable and practical opportunities tor the investment of their savings in the funded debt of the United States. "That we are in favor of such legislation which shall fix the legal rate of interest at not exceeding six per cent, per annum.
We demand the restoration of the silver dollar uf {121 grains to the com of the country, with full legal tender quality in "the :nent of all debts, both public and private and that the coinage thereof shall be unlimited, and upon the same term and conditions as may be provided for the coinage of gold. •That we are in favor of the immediate and unconditional repeal of the resumption act."
These principles are traveling fast and far. They are journeying wherever the tax gather journeys. They are carrying hope to laboring masses in the crowded villages of New England, along her bright water courses, and in the midst of her dark pines, as well as upon the fertile plains and wide savannahs ot Texas. The issues which they present are not sectional. Geographical lines do not divide the interests of the producing classes. Greed and extortion are the same everywhere, and resistance to oppression also prevails in every latitude.
The interest of the Americal people in their financial legislation is confined to no one measure. As long as they are indebted to their federal and State governments, to counties, cities, and corporations more than five thousand million dollars, and to each other in a still greater 6um, countless ifsues will continue to arise. And the great paramount duty of the people of all parties, in this connection, is to see that no man is chosen for the public service, except he is known to be, by principle, education, inftinct, and practice on their side in every contest that may arise between the rights of producing, tax-paying labor on the one hand, and idle, untaxed, grasping capital on the other. Ltt this be the test at the ballot-box and this government will soon return to the control of those whose honest toil upholds it.
The question of economy in the public expenditures is the one which next claims our attention. In connection with a false and oppressive system of finance there has been under Republican administrations a most reckless extravagance in the use of the money raised from the hard earnings of the people. In proof of this fact it is only necessary to make a few brief and plain comparisons. The ordinary expenditures of the United States for war, navy,Indian, civil and miscellaneous list, exclusive also of pensions from the commencement of the government up to, and including the fiscal year of 1861 the year the war broke out, embracing a period of eighty-two years amounted to $1,506,726,146. Passing by the extraordinary expenditures during the war, and computing the public expenses for ten years from Juae 30th, iS67, to June 30th, 1876. inclusive, we find that they amounted, exolusive of the national debt, interebj thereon, and pensions to the sum of $1,528,9x7,137, a sum greater by over twenty millions during ten years of peace under Republican administrations than during eighty-two years before that party obtained power. If we estimate the expenditure of ten years under Democratic administrations from June 30th, 1852, to June 30th, 1862, we find the amount to be $527,872,260 beiug $956,044,875 less than the ten years of Re publican administration already computed. A reliable exhibit on this subject is as follows

This shows an increase of 167.59 Per cent, for ten years since the war over ten years previous to the war. Taking as a basis the census of 1860, the cost per capita for the net ordinary expenditures for the ten years before the war was $ 18.21, whilst the net ordinary expendi tures for the ten years since the war on the basis of the census of 1870 was $39 65. There are facts, however,which are even more conclusive, if possible, than those already cited. The Democratic party has had a majority in the lower house of both the 44th and 45th Congress. For the first time since 1861 that party is justly chargeable with a portion of the responsibilities of the government. Let us, therefore, compare its work with those of its opponents.
