Illinois Independent Platform

Resolved, That the preservation Of our ma
tiunal life imperatively demands that every
American voter shall attend with care to all
primary nominations and elections of cOmpe-
tent and honest men to all offices in the gift
Of the people.
Resolved That we demand the immediate
reform of abuses in the civil service through
which the patronage Of the government Is
dispensed as a reward for partisan seriees,
rather than with regard to the public neces-
stiles.
Resolved, That we are in favor Of improv-
ing and perfecting the navigation of our
lakes and rivers and water connections, as
soon as it can be possibly done.
Resolved, That we demand the repeal OF
the specie resumption and national bank
acts, and the substitution of legal tender
paper money for the national bank CIR
culation; the perfecting Of a none
tary system based upon the faith and resour-
ces of the nation and adapted to the demands
of legitimate business. which money shall be

What is a Dollar 7

Ten cents more, sir, trade dollars are
only worth ninety cents, and we cant take
them for more than their market value"
The speaker was a clerk in well known
business establishment on Montgomery
street, the persons addressed Enthusiastically
foreign in costume and English In feature,
the transaction that called forth the re-
mark, the rendering Of trade dollar in
payment Of bill.
CAV, hem, SIR, you don't mean to say
that-aw- you-aw-cant take a dollar
for dollar" said the foreign gentleman
with a look Of wonder.
81 say We cant take trade dollars for
more than ninety cents, replied the clerk
good naturally but firmly.
well, sir, demme, sir, if this is not the
most demmible 'country that have ever
seen, sir, excitedly remarked the tenderer
Of the trade dollar. Here is a coin, sir,
bearing the-aw- stamp, sir, OF the gov
ernment-of the United Slater which pro-
fesses to, be-aw-dollaw, and yet, sir,
you say 1t is only worth ninety cents.
"Just the remark which | made, sir,
said the still complacent clerk.
II am just from the colonies, sir, said
the now thoroughly disguised customer
''am-hem Englishman, sir, as you
probably have observed. Now hem-in
the Uld country sir, a shilling Is shilling,
and guinea is guinea, and | supposed
dollaw in this country was dOilaw.
But-aw-hern-as you say, he continued,
''this is not dollaw, may | ask you, sir,
what is the dollaw Of this blarsted coun-
try m 1t Is unnecessary to say the con-
undrum remains unanswered.

Declaration Of Principles
OF THE
INDEPENDENT PARTY

Our Government is founded solely upon the
consent Of the people, and its powers are
subject to their control. The evils we now
live under have resulted from the acts of
unfaithful representatives, who have set the
interest of party above that Of the people.
These evils are chiefly displayed in our none
tary system and the mOnOpOlies which it has
engendered; this system being monarchical
in its principles and subversive Of Republic
can Government. And as experience demon
strates that we Ca have no hope Of reform
from existing political parties, it becomes our
imperative duty TO organize q new party, to
the end that we may resist the encrOach-
ments Of the money power upon the rights Of
the people, stay the tide Of corruption and
extravagance which Overfows the land, and
place the control Of the resources and finances
of the country in the hands of the people.

Platform Of the Independent Party ad
opted at Indianapolis May l8, 1876

The independent Party rs called into
existence by the necessities Of the people
whose industries are Frustrated. whose la
Dor is deprived q its just reward as the
result Of the serious mIsmanagement Of
the national finances. which errors both
the Republican and Democratic Parties
neglect to correct In view Of the failure
Of these parties to furnish relief to the de-
pressed industries ~ the country, thereby
disappointing the Just hopes and expecta-
tons Of suffering people, We declare our
principles and invite all Independent and
patriotic men 70 Join our ranks in this
movement fpr financial reform and indus
trial emancipation.
First We demand the immediate snd
unconditional repeal IF the specie-resump-
ton Act II January IA. 1873, and the re-
cue 81 our industries from the disaster and
ruin resulting from its enforcement, and
We call upon all patriotic men 70 organize
in every congressional district Of the coun-
try. with the view Of electing Represent
atives tp Congress Who win lag,slate for,
and Chief Magistrate who will carry out
the wishes VI the people in this regard,
and thus stop the present suicidal aud
destructive polcy II contraction.
Second We believe that United States
Notes issued directly by the Government,
and convertible on demand into United
States obligations, bearing an equitable
rate Of interest mot exceeding ooe cent a
lay Oh each one hundred doilars), and in
Interchangeable with United States Notes at
lar, viii ;.!forJ tile best circulating medium
ever dew lsed such United States notes
II l. 81 l., H..
except for the payment Of such obligations
as are by existing contracts expressly
made payable IN com Aud We hold that
1t is the duty Of the Government TO pro-
vide such a circulating medium, and we in
sist, IN The language Of Thomas Jefferson,
that bank paper must be suppressed and
the circulate restored "a the nation, to
whom II belongs.
Third Ii is the paramount duty Of
the Government IN al it, legislation to
keep IN view the full development Of all
legitimate business, agricultural, mining,
manufacturing and commercial.
Fourth We most earnestly protest
against any further issue II gold bonds, for
sale III foreign markets, by means Of which
We would be made, for a longer period
hewers of wood and drawers of water for
foreign nations, especially as the American
people would gladly and promptly take at
par all the bonds the Government may
need to SELL provided they are made pay
able at the option Of the holder, although
bearing interest at three and sixty-five
one hundredths per cent. per annum, OF
even lower rate.
Fifth -We further protest against the
r n Il
Of buying silver to be used as a substitute
for our more convenient and less fiuctuat-
ing fractional currency, which, although
well calculated to enrich the owners Of
silver mines, yet in operation will still
further opprsss through taxation anal
ready overburdened people"

a space equal to many farms paintings

that has long been the delight of the ar
fist almost every wonder in nature and
art are to be brought to the great fair
for exhibition.
Americans will doubtless appreciate
their opportunity, and during the sea-
son, visit Philadelphia. 1t is probable
that more can be seen in the great exhi-
bition, than would be seen in years of
foreign travel. Many nations will show
upon the grounds their modes of living,
and as much as possible of their man
ners and customs; from the log hut of
the pioneer of America, it will be but a
few steps into the home of the Japanese
or Chinaman. Each nation represented
will show such of its arts and wonders
as it believes itself to excel in and, re-
ally, the world will here come together
in Paramount Park for grand holiday
pleasure, and display of all that is beau
tiful or rare.
We must 60 to the Centennial f: it will
be too great a loss to miss this opportu-
nifty. The expense will be considerable;
for us in this vicinity from S25 upward,
according to length of time spent at the
exhibition and style of living while
there. The great number of articles that
are to be seen will compel one to remain
some time, even to take cursOrY glance
of the articles exhibited, and it will
probably be useless to attempt crit
ical examination of all that is to be
seen. A few days would allow one to
get a passing view of the exhibition, and
then the remainder of the time ought to
be spent in examining those things that
will contribute most to our benefit OF
taste. The mechanic will find what will
