ton Yesterday.

COLUMBUS, O., July 23.-The state national
convention organized this afternoon by
electiDg Robert Shilling, of Cleveland, chair
man, and Hugo Preyer, of Canton, secretary.
General s. f. Carey was made chairman of
the committee on resolutions, and reported
the following platform:
L. We indorse and reaffirm the declaration
of principles of the national party adopted at
Toledo, February p, 1877.
2. Want of harmony of sentiment on the
financial question in both republican
and democratic parties renders Ii
absolutely necessary that those who demand
financial reform should abandon the old or
CARNATIONS and unite together in the national
greenback labor party to save business men
ation fhe Whole country from revolution and
the nation from reputation.
3. We denounce as crimes against the peO.
tial legal tender, the act creating the national
banking scheme, the act changing currency
bonds into coin bonds, the act exempting bonds
from taxation, the act repeating the income
tax, the act dem onetizing oliver the act for is
suing interest bearing bonds for the purchase
of silver bullion 10 be converted into Subsidf-
airy coin, the act for the forced resumption of
specie payments, the act for the indefinite in
crease of the national bank circulation and
the enormous contraction of the volume of the
cial legislation of the government from the
commencement OF the civil war as the arbi-
trary dictation of a syndicate of bankers and
usurers, with the single and settled purpose OF
robbing the many to enrich the few.
4. To remedy and counteract the evils COM
planned of we demand that the government
shall issue full legal tender paper money,
adequate in volume, for the employment of
labor, the distribution OF its products, the re-
quirementS of business and for the payment
of all Understanding bonds as fast as redeem
able, the withdrawal and cancellation of all
bank notes designed to circulate as currency,
the non-exemption from taxation of all
private property, the passage of q graduated
Income tax, the unlimited coinage of gold
and silver and the repeal OF the specie re-
sumption act, all legalized monopoltes
abolished and their establishment in the
future abolished.
D. We recognize the mutual dependence of
capital and labor and deprecate all attempts TO
antagonize them. Combinations OF capital TO
rob and strikes of labor to resist robbery are
destructive of the true interests of both. We
denounce alike the communism which de-
mands an equal division of property and the
infamous financial legis lation which takes all
from the many to enrich the few. We demand
of dear capital and cheap labor.
8. To secure the rights and to protect the in
terests of employer and employed, bureaus OF
statistics should be established, and compe-
tent persons appointed TO inquire INTO and re-
port the condition and wages OF the working
classes, in all departments of industry, that
wise and judiclous and equitable laws may be

New ORLEANS, July 25.-Major E. A.

substantially that he resided in New Orleans
since 1869, was here in 1876. Left for Wash
iDgton 18th of January, 1877, was sent by
Governor Nichols TO represent the interests
of the Nichols state government. Nichols
was informed that efforts were being made
to misrepresent the condition of affairs in
Louisiana to President Grant, who, it was
alleged, was asked to interfere in behalf of
the Nckard government Nichols was also
informed that there was a determlna-
ton to force on his legislature
senators in the interest of the republican
party as the price of yielding up state gov
eminent. Hence the witness mission to
Washington. He was instructed verbally by
Governor Nichols to ascertain the true state
of affairs at Washington and TO keep him
posted. He was also to represent 10 the
president the state OF affairs in Louisiana in
The interest of the Nichols government.
He was also instructed TO confer and act

national democratic party. He also re-
celved written instructions to the same
effect Major Burke said he would here

FURTHER DETAILS.

The witness stated he visited the house of
representatives, and Mr.. Ellis there stated to
him that he had received letter from La
mar stating that Matthews Foster and
friends of Hayes had made a statement in
regard to what they believed to be Hayes
views on the southern question, and what
would be his course towards Packard. He
(Ellis) thought it necessary TO go to Column
bus, Ohio, with a view to verify the state
ment that had been made Ellis stated he
had communicated the substance of the
statement TO Governor Nichols, and had
telegraphed to Hayes asking il he had been
fairly represented by those claiming to be
his friends.
The witness disagreed with Ellis ard tele-
graphed to Nichols stating tha' - ultimate
solution of the Louisiana - a 70 the
benefit of his (Nlcholls) goveI Es.~-, rested
more with the powerful Leaders OF the re-
publican party than with Hayes. The wit
ness knew Hayes policy towards the south
would be conciliatory, but told Ellis, Mat
thews and Foster that he did not belive
there was any man living strong enough to
carry out such policy in the face OF
united hostile party; that the friends of
Nichols did not need any further guaranty
or assurances from Hayes personally, but he
did want and must have the guaranty of
strong radical leaders of the party;
that it was the Shermans, the Gar
class whose assurances they must have that
they would allow Hayes to carry out his
peaceful and conciliatory policy towards the
Southern people. These views the witness
had set forth fully in the conferences with
Matthews and others on the 10th, 18th and
18th of February, and he had announced to
them that IT was their determination. unless
they could secure the guarantees of strong
rauical leaders of the republican party, that
they should make united and determined
effort to defeat the electoral count. They
had had
RADICAL RULERS LONG ENOUGH.
The witness went on to say that he stated
to Matthews and Governor DenDison, of
Ohio IN the hall of the house of representa-
tives substantially as follows:
We absolutely determined to protect
and defend our state government, and while
we feel that there is no dislOyalty in 1t so far
the general government was concerned,
that our course exhibited previously had been
misunderstood. We had constantly sought
10 avoid clashing with federal authority.
yet we were determined to defend gov
eminent as against the federal government or
anybody else who might sustain Packard.
Therefore, with attempt to inangurate
the Packard government was bound TO
plunge Louisiana into anarchy, and II strife
should come we preferred to make national
issue, in which our national friends would be
involved as well as ourselves.
Matthews and Governor Dennison then
asked the witness whether he had any OBJ
lection to az interview with Sherman, lie
