now promises to bankrupt the country
If not repealed. 1t provides that
the government shall do that which
1t can not do without such q ruinous
expense as would be pronounced insanity
itself, If rescrted t. by an individual on
the verge of bankruptcy. 1t is need
less to say that we refer to the
resumption bill of Sherman, adopted in
January, 1875. What is the reason congress
does not repeal it? There seems to be some
sort of hesitancy in attacking this ruinous
act that the people can not understand. It
was placed upon the statute books by the
Republican party, and they have stood by it
from the day of its passage until the pres
emit day. Every Republican in congress
voted for it but one or two. Every Demo
crat voted against the measure II we remem-
Dor correctly. Now while almost the entire
Democratic party in the West, and large
its repeal, why is it that the voice of the
people is not heard? The American
people, suffering and grooming under the
pressure of the ruinous taxation imposed
upon the country by Republican extravs-
gance, will not consent to let congress, by
csucusses or otherwise, decide what policy
shall govern in this matter. The repeal
must come, and If the present congress fails
to hear the voice of the people more faithful
men must take their places. The Republi-
can party has given itself into the hands of
the money power, and the people can expect
no relief from that source. The record of the
Democracy on that point is with the will
OF the people. How does it happen
now, that with the voice of the people cry
ing out for repeal, the Democratic House of
Representatives delays its action upon this
subject? The people are not in humor TO
be trified with. The Republican party of
this state, whose leaders appreciate the stu
alton and know wnas the people demand,
will attempt to catch the popular breeze
and engrsft in their platform urgent de-
msnds upon con2ress to undo the ruinous
work that has brought their party to the
verge of destruction, and will thus
hope to deceive the people with alleged pur-
poses and plans that they never intend to
fulfill. But the people will not be deceived
by the further pledges of party that has
brought distress upon the country by the
acts of Sherman and Morton, two of their
chief leaders. The only hope for relief to
the country is in the Democracy,
and the people demand that there
shall be no longer delay in
congress over this matter. Even if the Re
publican Senate, in obedience to the ad-
vice of the Republican president, shall re-
fuse to permit repeating resolution to pass,
yet the Democratic House should not longer
hesitate, but promptly meet the wishes of
their constituents, and leave the onus
and odium of its failure in the hands of the
party that enacted the measure in the first

rhe Indiana independents.

The st. Louis Globe Democrat has read
the exhaustive report of the Sentinel on
the Independent convention in this city,
on Wednesday last, to little purpose, when
it calls the movement In this city Demo-
cratic bolt. While it rightly declares that
Democrats who favor the bullionist policy
of the Republican party are "scarce as hen
teeth" in Illinois, Indiana and Missouri, it
mistakes the purpose or plans of the Democ-
rscy in these states with respect to an in
dependent movement of the fashion repre-
scented by the Independents who assembled
here on last Wednesday. That movement
is not Democratic bolt, but is a thoroughly
independent organization. It's leaders have
been formerly connected with the Republ
can party, three-fourths OF its nominees hsv-
ing been Republicans, and when SUCCESSFULLY
called to the front as nominated, they
severed their allegiance to their own party
organization and declared themselves
identified with the new movement.
II the convention therefore was In any
sense bolt it was a bolt from the RepubI-
can party which passed the resumption bill
and has continued to sustain 1t.
The Democracy of Indiana when the state
convention assemblies will doubtless give
expression, in its resolutions, to views on
the financial question that will render un-
necessary any bolt, which the Globe Demo-
crat seems to so srdently desire.

MR.. LANDERs DEFENDED.

THE EDITORS OF THE JOURNAL AND NEWS
DARE NOT MEET HIM IN DEBATE.
To the Editor of the Sentinel:
SIR-It appears from recent issues of the
Journal and Evening News that the editors
OF these papers are taking especial pSins to
abuse the Hon. franklin Landers az an IN
educated, self-conoeited, seltopinionated
man, that he is no scholar, no statesman,
and the like. Now the editors of the ycur-
nal and News jointly dare not meet Mr..
Landers in open debate on the finance cues
ton, when he comes home to run for gov
ernor. Statesman or no statesman Mr..
LADDERS has given evidence to the people
that he has thoroughly mastered the cues
ton, as also TO statesman at Washington as
well's to the Hon. John Coburp, whe sat
two terms in congress-, but found du-ing
the canvass that he was no match for his
opponent on this subject, and that in spite
of all opposition and ali influence be is de-
termined to stand or fall by the greenback
platform. Whilst Holman, Mcdonald and
Others Of the democratic party used alb in
fidence possible to induce Mr.. Landers to
vote for Kerr, he refused, knowing Ar.
Kerr to favor resumption, and consequently
to vote for him would be acting contrary
to the principles he had advocated in his
canvass. This one act is declared by some
of the oldest and strongest republicans In
the state to be
THE GREATEST FEATHER IN MR.. LANDEaSs
CAP,
as It shows he can be trusted as wedin
Washington as at home in the canvass: it
has gained him thousands of friends both, in,
the republican and democratic ranksA Mr..
Lenders stands squarely, firmly and bon
estly on the greeDback platform, and balisves
this to be the only platform that will raise
up the country out of it's present almost at
ter depression and relieve the laboriug
classes Of the country. For the good ofthe
country IL Is to be hoped some candidate will
come forward before the presidential; osm-
paign and commit himself fully to these
principles. Whilst admitting, as his oppo-
Dents must, that Mr.. Lsnders has been sue
cessful as a farmer, dry goods merchant and
killer of pork, in the language the Evening
News unguardedly makes use OF in to-day's
issue, he is the looming man" that under
stands the peoples necessities, has the sbil-
ity and honesty to proclaim the same, and
is to-day the peoples M st proraiaent ia
vorite" who will be governor OF Indiana.

1t is funny to notice the earnestness with
which some of the old stagers in the Repub-
can ranks are seeking for nomination for
some office on the Republican ticket when
there will not be ghost of chance of their
election. 1t seems to us that it would not
be pleasant to be the subject of funeral.

The case OF Babcock is being tried at
Washington; at least one Cook, counsel of
the Washington City ring, has undertaken
to tell the president what is the conclusion
from the evidence, in advance of the decision
of the jury. This is telegrsphed all over the
country, evidently to prepare for the final
decision. Cook may be right as to the final
result, but II Babcock escapes what
is the use of evidence. If any
thing upon the face OF the earth
is clear the dispatches published show
that Babcock had guilty knowledge of the
crooked proceedings at st. Louis, and that
he was sidingin sustaining the officials there
charged with defrauding the government.

can do no wrong, surely his bosom friend

view of the past record of tn
party and the present temper of the
people, but II the doctrine Of
the Journal is followed, that Inconsistency
is consistent, and to be approved, there will
be no difficulty at all. They might affirm
that whereas the Republican party, by their
reprs sntstives in congress, did pass bill
for the destruction of the greenback circuls-
ton and the increase OF National Bank
circulation, and pledged the party to take
no step backward from the resumption of
specie payments, they do now resolve that
greenbscks are good and ought not to be
destroyed, that there should be no Initiation
of the national bank currency, and that
resumption of spscie payments ought not
to take place in 1879. They may
further resolve that, though with the
aid of the money power and
the officeholders' contributions, it was found
convenient in Ohio 10 oppose greenbscks, it
will now be safer in Indiana to favor them.
The record and the resolves would not
consist" yet according to the Journal,
all would be lovely. Consistency OF the Jour
nal sort, were Jewel indeed.
