That well constructed platform of the
Journal for an unconditional repeal of tae
resumption bill was shattered and broken
one week ago last night. Thousands OF
the Journals friends were standing upon
1t at the time of the accident. Many of
them were there through the arguments
and persussions so repeatedly published
in its columns, and it was too bad that the
Journal should have allowed it ID be
kicked over. If there was anything in
this world permanent, strong and solid,
we thought that platform was, and it is
sad to find how quickly and with what
slight effort Morton could shstter and de-
stroy it.

The absence of any reference to the third
term in the resolutions passed by the late
Republican state convention is significant.
1t means tha. Senator Morton Sidn't
want to incur the displessure of the pIesi-
dent by having the convention pronounce
against the third term. He wants Gen
eral Grants influence in the Republican
national convention, and thought the best
way to get it IVES to ignore "the unwritten
law of the republic" in the Indiana Repub-
lican platform.

1t was as fitting as delightful that the
first appearance of Mr.. Charles O'Conor
in public, after his almost miraculous re-
covery from dangerous illness, should be
to address the State Charities Aid Assc-

ably, as of yore. Few men in America, at
this time. occupy more enviable position
before his fellow-citlzens than Mr..
O'Conor. he is conceded to be an
honest and incorruptible man. This char
acteristic added to his professional standing
and great abilities, is greater and more
desirable distinction than any Office could
possibly confer. The whole nation rejoices
in his recovery and the continuation of
his already advanced life.

obituary.

The correspondent of the New York
Times, writing from this city of the recent
state convention, says none of the Repub-
licsn leaders premise to carry the state
for Orth in October. All that they will
agree to do is "that everything shall be
done to secure that result" The Times
correspondent is candid, but he is liable to
be Gems ured for telling tales out OF school.
It is the custom of the Republican leaders
to keep their courage up by whistling
when they are in danger. They pretend
to believe that Orth will be elected.
They pretend to believe this, but in
reality they do not. They know that
Genenarsl Lew Wallace Is soldier, as
well as q painter and a novelist, aud
carries a sword in his belt. The sword
may now rest in IFS scabbard, but it is easy
to draw it thence-from, and when it's
blade once Il sshts IN the sunlight blood
will flow. And, besides, Cumback's grave
yard is not yet full. One more grave must
be dug before the ire of its proprietor will
be sppeased. There are several hlllccks
there which denote the resting place OF
those who went down under the strokes of
his battle axe, but the plan of the grounds
requires that others should be added to
complete their symmetry. They will be
added in due time. Next October the sex
ton will be ordered to dig a grave almost
as broad as long. In it will be placed
the political remains of the Republican
candidate for governor. The general and
the ex-lieutenant governor will lower the
body to its last resting place, and see that
1t is decently covered. The bar of Indiana
will take csrs that monument is erected
to the departed upon which is engraved a
history of his life work, syllabus of

Time was when the Republican party
claimed to be the party of progress in the
cause of public education. But the tone
of its Mortonisn platform and the trifling
way in which it slurred over the nomina-
ton of state superintendent of public
ins ruction ought to close the mouth of
that party on the subject of education in
this state. A terrible uIrosr was created
over the choice of 8 treasurer to pay out
cash on warrants OF the auditor, but when
the vast concern OF education for the mass
OF the people was at s. axe, involving the
care and use of more than IS, 000, 900, there
was no contest, there was no interest, and
almost without the formality of ques-
ton, a man was hit upon who is nothing
more, educstionally, than a third rate
country schoolmaster, and never engaged,
as reported, in the public schools except as
a pupil

1t is thought that as Morton has been
designated the great war. governor and
soldiers friend, some enthusing epithets
might be manufactured to order to give

cans take kindly toward the Sentinel in
its advice, we venture to suggest that
hencstorth Mr.. Orth be recognized as the
widows friend

The Journal went off in raptures about
the popularity of Hess, candidate for
auditor of state. By reference to the vote
OF Hendricks county, the home of Hess or
Hessisn, we find that in 1870 he was a
candidate for county auditor. At the DC
tober election Hess got but 461 msjority,
while the Republican candidate for
congress received 957 majority, or, in other
words, Hess ran behind his ticket over
five hundred votes.

One week has passed and we have had
no excuse from the Journal for changing
its course on the financial question. What
reason will it assign for no longer advo-
eating repeal of the resumption bill? Its
own party friends are demanding an ex-
PLANTATION, and are curious to know what it
will be. Let Us have some light on this
interesting subject.
