The Ohio Democracy.

The Ohio Democrats have not, 10 use
their own expressive phrase, "gone back on
the platform Of 1876" They reiterate those
absurd and nauseous sentences, that resump-
ton paralyzes productive and commercial in
dustries, and that the masses of the people
are subjugated to the imperious sway of
money oligarchy. They declare for the un-
conditional repeal of the resumption act, for
the substitution of a forced currency for an
optional one, and thereby vast increase of
the national debt, for banking by the Treas
ury, and they reach the climax of absurdity
by protesting against any scheme of resump-
ton which involves either contraction of the
currency or increase of the interest burden of
the debt. This last plank is in effect dec
laration against resumption at any time, for
that much to be desired result can only be
brought about by the means which they ex-
pressy condemn. They fifty crown their
work by endorsing as the choice of Ohio for
President the most blatant repudiationist in
the land, the man who calls the metallic dol
lar "a barren ideality."
In only one important particular does the
platform differ from the one adopted last
year. Since then new form of dishonesty,
a new way to swindle the nations creditors,
has made its appearance, and the Ohio Dem
ocrats hasten to endorse it. So long as silver
maintained its value as compared with gold,
they were as strong in its condemnation as
in that of the other metal. The silver
dollar was as barren an idealty as the gold.
But now that silver is greatly deprecated,
now that its use affords an opportunity to
cheat somebody, they call for its coinage.
They cannot bring themselves to forego so
tempting chance TO swindle their creditors.
The silver dollar becomes productive and
desirable actually the moment it is available
for the purposes of fraud.
Those who pretend that the Ohio Democra-
cy last year was laboring under a temporary
delusion and that it has outgrown or forsaken
its errors, will have difficult task to de-
fend its action Of Wednesday. 1t has adopted
the old bad platform. Incorporating in it an
added form of dishonesty. It has discarded
its best man and taken up an arrant dema-
gogue. The result is to assure the State to
the Republicans, and to bring the currency
question once more into the front rank of
the issues to be brought out in the coming
campaign.
