8: he platform upon which this is
ticket is presented to the people
isaNork of some 10 ngenuity. Like
an old eampaigner, the Convention
moves withsa bold step where the
ground is firm, but .treaas cautious
y and giagerly over the boggy
places. The country is first con,
gratutated on the, success Of South

South, regardless Of race or color
which lookssyery much like tkt
abandonment, as far.a convenient
of1the universal negro sufrag'
policy of reconstruction. Next
every form Of repudiation Of tn
financial obligations. of the Gov
ernment is denounced as crime
a declaration which is broat
enough to meet all questioners
Ebut still so dubious as to signif.
noth hing. Next, an equalization o
taxes, economy. in the admins
tration, aud an abatement of cor

are one thing, and performance
are. another, as we see in the Inc
/ qualities of the taxations, the las
.tish expenditures and the shockin
/ -corruptions in Office, for whic
this party in power is responsible
! So far, at all events, this new RI
publican platform is broad enoug
! to admit all the various shades
opinion in the party camp on th:
thing, that thing and the othe
without any promises Of a. defnit
or satisfactory. character on th
great,issues of the day.
