UNION PLATFORM.


The Republican Union party Of Ohio
in Convention assembled, declare,
lat. That one of the great lessons of thu
war is that the American people ere ma
tion and not merely confederacy of SOY
ereign and Independent States.
3D. That our existence as nation is bas
ed on the great principles announced II
the Declaration Of Independence, and win
dieated by the proclamation Of emancipa
tion. the constitutional amendment abol
ishing slavery, and the spirit of Republican
democracy and justice, which underlies
the reconstruction policy Of the 18th and
4Oth Congresses, which we hereby fully
indorse. and which we demand shall be
carried into complete effect by every need
full act of additional legislation
Sd. That while we will always cherish
and defend the American system OF local
and municipal selfgOvernments for local
purposes, and national government Tor
national purposes, and while we are unal-
terably opposed to all attempts at central
izatiOn or consolidation Of power anywhere,
we hold that liberty and human rights
constitute our great national boon, which
local or State organizations must not be
allowed TO abridge or take away.
4th. That imbued with the spirit of true
Democracy, and believing that the powers
necessary for the purpose of attaining the
ends of government, ought not to be re,
stricted TO n privileged class, but should
be vested IN the whole people, without un-
Just or odiOus distinctions, qualifications
not equally sttAlnable by all; and further
believing that these sentimentsare liz
strict accordance with the spirit and tend
ency of modern civilization, we place our
selves on the simple and broad platform of
impartial manhood suffrage, as embodied
in the proposed amendment to the State
Constitution, appealing to and confiding
in, the intelligence, justice and patriotism
Of the people Of Ohio, to approve it at the
ballot box.
5th. The American people owe debt of
lasting gratitude to the brave soldiers and
sailors who in the lRte struggle for our ma
tiOnal existence, so nobly fought for our
liberties and for the privqtions, sufferings |
and sacrifices which they endured, The
loyal men of Ohio hereby pledge to them
and 10 the widows and orphans Of those
who fell in defense Of the nation, our sym
pathies and substantial support,
9Th. That we approve and endorse the
military administration of our distinguish !
ed fellow citizen, Major General Phil, II.
Sheridan, ia Louisiana and Texns, and
pledge him and the military commanders
in the South, the cordial support of the
Union men of Ohio ir their efforts to protect
the loyal people Of the late rebel States,
and to secure the organization of loyal and

oolored candidates for oaloe.

e.
Some white politicians ale seek
ing to make political capital for
themselves by an apparent zeal in
favor of the instant elevation Of ne
groes to office. One Of this class
Is clamoring to the Republican par
ty to nominate a negro for Vice
President at the next election. The
true doctrine requires that the ne
gro, like the white citizen, should
be elected to office only on his per
sonal merits, irrespective Of col
or" SO sensible colored men
think, as we see in that very respec-
table paper, the Christian Record
er, the organ Of the African Metho-
dist Church, published at Phila-
delpAia, which says;
awe are perfectly willing to thus
publish to the world the fact that
we do not demand the nomination
of Mr.. J. NJ. Langston, Frederick
Douglas, Major Delany, or any 9th
or man of color, to such high Of
fees at the present time, 1t is
enough for us when "the idols are
broke in the temple of Baal." We
will in due time let the world know
when we, in struggling for the sal
vation and honor Of our people,
deem it expedient to nominate n
Colored man for Vice e-President"
The political adventures reckon
without their host if they imagine
that the negro voters Of the coun-
try are ambitious Of being repre-
sented in official stations by incom-
petent or unsuitable candidates, or
by men who owe their elevation to
chicanery or corrupt bargain and
sale. Their own sense of self-re-
spect, and their Identification Of in
terest with the general welfare, will
make them ambitious to be repre-
sented only by such men as will
at once do justice to the public and
do honor to their race,

An exchange tells a novel love
story; A young couple planned an
elopement; the girl descended the
traditional ladder, but at the gate
they were met by the father Of the
girl and the minister, by whom the
couple were escorted to the parlOr,
where to their surprise they found
all their relatives collected for the
marriage ceremonies, which took
place at once. 1t was neat pater-
nal freak. Not near as neat as that
OF a, fond parent we know Of lie
heard his daughter and her fellow
plan an elopement, The next day
the old man waited on the young
one and addresses him thus -
"You're fine brave youth, and !
don't object to you for s0n-in-law,
Here's a hundred dollars TO aid in
the elopement, May you live hap
pily In the same house, and may no
Incident occur to throw the least
shade on the sunshine Of your life,
All require is that you elope with
my daughter--she's a mighty nice
girl, you know, but somehow ] and
her mother could never travel
smoothly with her, we don't know
her good points-elope with her to
such a distance that she won't return
TO her loving father and mother any
more. Good-by, sonny, and may
you be happy" There was an elope-
ment that evening Of one. The
Young man went unaccompanicd
he thought everything couldn't be
right when the old cock was so anx.
ious d get rid OF the girl The fa'
tiles ooks on this as very neat
BIZ OF strategy, for ono who had
never been on McClellan's staff.
