CURRENT COMMENT
Upon Convention and Candidates.

SENTIMENT OF THE COUNTRY.
NALs-How THE NOMINATIONS WERE RE-
CEIvED IN VARIOUS LOCALITIES.
Cincinnati Enquirer
As for ourselves, we believe that we can
say that Tilden was not our choice. The
party to which we belong, and to which
we have always given our allegiance, has
made him the standard bearer. Our tattle
for currency reform, we are pleased to
know, made some impression upon the
st. l. uis convention. Things might have
been worse We prefer Tilden TO Ha, o.,
and shall advise the Democi Ic organIza-
ton to stand by the nominees.
We haze msny sentiments in com
mon with Tiiden. We have none n
common with HAYES. The incongru U
elements OF tie r publican party have
united upon Hayes, sUppresslng tneIr
differences and subj ec5ing all questions 10
the one paramount question. There Is
nothing for the % moccatic party to do but
close the ranks and move FORWARD to the
music prepared at S.. Louis es serday.
sATIsFACTIoN EVERYWHERE.
lChicago Times.l
Contrary to expectation nomination
Was reached for the head OF the ticket at
ST. Louis early last evening, and the con

ton iell upon Gov. Ssmu-l j, Tllden al

the Z ssL is juoIlant over Ills success. in
OniO there VA quiet Salts action; In In
dianapoiis d ssppointmeDt; Boston rat
Ities; and all over the country all shades
of sentiment are expr, ssei. When ln-
formed OF the &C ion of the convention,
Governor 1iiden expressed the oplDioB
that reform was Whist the people rather
than party wan, aud that Lhis must be
the keynote OF the Campaign.
EMBODIMENT OF REFORM.
[St Lonis Times.l
At crisis when the government itself
seemed upon the verge of ire rievaole
gacv of it's rulers, Governor Tilden
became the mssser-spirit of q rev.
olution that was none the less
u. eded in his own state, and how
well he has succeeded In crushing out the
rsscality aud robbery tpat threatened the
bankruptcy OF bis tIessury and the utter
impoverishmsnt of his people, is matter
of luminous and universal record
He goes tnsn bs'oTe the forty mil
iioBs of his fellow-eltiz ms as the fore
most representative OF a cause that con-
Germs the sscur ty aud well being of every
man amoug them, ana as the embodiment
OF the idea thai rules uppermost in their
The Indiana State sentinel. [volume] (Indianapolis) 1868-1895, 1876-07-05

! is more fully elaborated elsewhere in the
Sentinel this morning. A very large ma
iority of both parties agreeing that specie
resumption is desirable as soon as the
prosperity of the country will permit,
the main issue in the coming contest
will be that of reform and plscing
! the government in purer bands
This will divide the parties. There
will be no dlsaffsction in the Democratic
ranks on this issue. We of the West, feel
ing more keenly the oppressive policy OF
the Republican party upon the subject oil
finance, have earnestly urged that the law of
1875 should be repealed that the nation
may once more enter upon tide OF pros
perity that Its boundless resources provide
for. This being demanded, and methods
to resumption provided that will create no
artificial scarcity oftbe currency necessary
to the transaction OF the business of the
country, and restore business confidence
and credit, the West may heartily join
with all other sections of the Union in an
earnest and JEALOUS contest for reform in
the administration of tire government
that will relieve the country of distress.
and at the earliest possible moment enable
the government to redeem sll its obliga-
tions.
The general views of the platform on
finance doubtless reflect the will of not
only an immense majority of the Demo-
cratic party, but OF the people of the whole
country, and as Loyalty Democratic the
Sentinel and the Democrats Of Indiana will
offer no fsctious opposition to the will OF
tbat majority, but render the ticket
hearty, q cordial support, believ
ing that every substantial inter-
est of the country will be bet
ter conserved by elevsting the Demo-
cratic party to power than by devisive
measures, or otherwise to cowsrdly yield
the field to the lswless. extrsvagsnt and
corrupt party which has been despoiling
the nation for dozsn years. 1t would, in
every way, be unwise to sacrifice a COM
d act national organization like the Demo-
cratic par y in this important crisis of our
history. New organizations are
of slow growth, overshsdowed by parties
that have grown up with the history of q
nation. Dsliverance for the people in
the present emergency must come
through the Democratic party. Compact,
united and determined by the sterling
purposes set forth in the platform, with
leaders that inspires the confidence of the
people that these purposes will be faith.
fully carried out, success is made sure and
pertain.
The Sentinel, therefore, cordially and
sealously addresses itself to the work of
supporting the ticket nominated at st. |
Louis, and exhorts the Democracy of
Indiana to stand at their post, laboring for
he ticket, and the victory in November |
will most surely crown our efforts and
elect to the presidency and |
7ice presidency our acknowledgements,
rilden and Hendricks.
The Indiana State sentinel. [volume] (Indianapolis) 1868-1895, 1876-07-05

Upon the essential part OF the 81. Louis
platform there can be no shadow OF dis
pute between the East and the West, or
between one branch of the party and
another. The declaration that over
shadows ali others in Importance, and that
upon which the fight of the Campaign is to
be made, is the srrsignment OF the corrupt
and dishonest course of the present adj
ministratiop.

for personal and political integrity and
honesty of purpose. In his election every
ring of every class will see their doom,
Upon his election to office fraud, pecula-
ton and corruption will hide their dimin-
ished heads. and honesty, capacity and
incorruptibility be once more recognized
