In view of the terribly depressed condi-
ton of business in Indiana the question of
interest is likely to occupy the attention of
the people for some time to come, and the
indications are that 1t will be forced into
prominence during the campaign of 1878.
This inference is strengthened by the &C
ton of the Whitley county democratic con-
vention, held recently to appoint delegates
to the state democratic convention. Among
other resolutions, the following upon the
subject of the rate of interest we reproduce
as indicating the drift of public sentiment
upon the subject
That In view of the enormous depreciation
of property, both personal aud real, and the
depressed condition OF the times, entaiiing
unusual burthens upon the producing, labor
log, commercial and debtor class, that the
war rate OF 10 per cent. interest on notes and
judgments should be abolished, and the old
rate Of per cent. interest be made absolutely
the legal rate of the state.
In view of the fact that almost any rate Of
interest is how burdensome, ii is not i'm
probable that the convention to assemble in
this city on the Goth inst. will regard it pru-
dent to take some positive action calculated
to relieve the people of some of the burdens
that are now pressing them into bankrupt
courts At any rate the subject is eminently
worthy o. consideration.

THE RETURNING BOARD AND THE
RADICAL PARTY.


We have believed from the first that the
secret workings of the conspirators who re-
versed the will of the American people and
placed R. B. Hayes and W. A. Wheeler in
office would be brought to light and SUBJ
jected to the gaze of the world. Events now
transporting demonstrate the potentiality of
the silent forces of truth which always and
under all circumstances assert their divine
right, and which, sooner or later, overmaster
no spectacle more humiliating, no
crime more essentially infamous in
all its parts than that committed by the
Louisiana returning board. From its con-
ception until haggard with fraud and bias.
phemous perjury it elevated R. B. Hayes to
the presidency, it stands alone in the record
of villainy. 1t has no parallel, no prototype.
Ranssck the archives of he'll, place every
devil damned on the witness stand, mass all
the crimes recorded in authentic history,
and then exhaust fiction and fable, and there
will be nothing brought to light so essen
tally vile as the crimes committed in the
interest of the radical party by the base

the equally base creatures who abetted the
violation of the law. We do not hesitate to
sssert that it is impossible to take in one or
thousand views of the crime its signif
canoe, its proportions, or its far.reaching
consequences; and but for the memorable
fact that the party in whose interest the
crime was committed defend it, and by apol
off ~ 10 Oh fha incl
would require the utmost stretch of credulity
to suppoe that any party could by any pos
sibility look upon the crime with the least
degree OF allowance, or could entertain for
the criminals any feeling except that of
unmitigated adherence. The crime is of
such hideous magnitude as to almost require
infinite wisdom to analyze it, infinite JUS
tice to sit in judgment upon it and infinite
vengeance to meet out its penalty. A great
country is in the grasp of thieves and a
great and free people struggling to break
these letters are the companion pictures
that attracted the attention of the people
during the campaign of 1S76-the centen-
NAL year of American history. At last VIC
tory came. A majority OF more than q
quarter of million votes declared Tilden
and Hendricks elected. It'was true. But
while the people were rejoicing conspirators
were plotting, and the crime for which
the Louisiana returning board outlaws are
now on trial was consummated, and the will
of the American people was reversed. r. b.

derrick of fraud and perjury, and

HON. THOMAS A. HENDRICKs-HIs
POSITION.


The Sentinel has at no time during the
discussion OF the two great measures of
relief now pending in the United States
senate directly or remotely alluded to
Thomas A. Hendricks. vice president of the
United States dc jtre; for while Governor
Hendricks is engaged in conducting his own
private affairs, he is something more, and
vastly more, than a private citizen. AS we
have said, he is vice president dc jure of the
United States, made such by the sovereign
will of the American people, and the victim
of fraud so essentially infamous that it is
being recognized as the representative crime
of the Christian era. Under such circum-
stances there has not been any serious
popular demand for Governor Hendricks
opinions upon topics which were not dis
tinctively announced during the campaign
of 1876. We mean by this that Governor
Hendricks, having always met the demands
OF the democracy of the country, the popu-
lar mind was in no sense disturbed by APP
prehensions that, when the time did arrive
requiring his public utterances upon ques-
tons of national concern, he would be other

regards the largest expectations of the
people, and indicate not only his
consistency but the requirements
of the most exalted craftsmanship. There
are times in the history of nations when
events shape themselves and take their di-
rection independent of what is termed
leadership" 1t evidences acumen and po-
I;ffoo1 - bo - -
measure their Importance and comprehend
the forces that are moving them forward,
and it requires equal sasacity to know when
leadership in the sense of an attempt to
direct events is required, and even then
there must be profound comprehension of
all collateral or tributary elements that
combine to create great popular movements.
Mr.. Hendricks not being member of
congress nor a senator, nor yet a candi-
date, could with becoming propriety
withhold his views from the public, and
with equal propriety, if requested, or if
occasion should so demand, could make
public his opinions upon current topics.
Circumstances have recently transpired that
have made it eminently proper for Mr..
Hendricks to give publicity to his views,
and in doing so he has met the expectations
of his friends in Indiana and throughout
the country. Indeed, he has added indef-
nitely to his reputation for comprehensive
craftsmanship and devotion to the welfare
of his countrymen. His response to Mr.. Bel
mont is conclusive and forever sets any doubt
at rest in regard, not only to Mr.. Hendricks
consistency, but to hisclear com prehension of
the whole subject of national finances, so far
as the silver dollar is concerned. We are
not authorized to speak for Mr.. Hendricks
with regard to his aspirations for office, nor
is the matter involved, but if it were now
the uppermost thought in the minds of the
American people We feel assured that he
could not have more thoroughly established
himself in their confidence and affections
than by his advocacy of the reconciliation
of the dollar of ''the fathers and the ''doller
'of the contract"
