REVOLUTIONS AND NOMINATIONS.
The State National Convention organiz
ed this P. N. by electing Z. Shilling, o
Cleveland, Chairman; Hugo Preyer, o
Canton, Secretary.
General s. F. Carey was made chair
mao Of the Committee on Resolutions
and reported the following platform:
1st. We endorse and reAfirm the deela
ration Of principles Of the National part,
adopted al Toledo, Feb. 22d.
%. Want Of harmony of sentiment OF
the financial question in both the Rspub
lican and Democratic parties renders i
absolutely necessary that those who de
mand financial reform should abandon
the old organizations and unite together
in the National Greenback Labor party
10 save the business men from bankrupt
cy, the working classes from starvation
the whole country from revolution, anc
the nation from reputation.
Sd. We denounce as crimes agains
the people, the law making the green
back the only partial legal tender, thu
set creating the National banking sheme
the act changing the currency bonds into
coin bonds, the act exempting bonds from
taxation, the act repeating the income
tax. the act demonetizing silver. the aci
] for Issuing interest bearing bonds for the
purchase Of silver bullion 10 be converted
into subsidiary coin, the act for the
forced resumption Of specie payments,
the act for the indefinite increase Of the
National bank circulation and the enor-
nous contraction Of the volume Of circu.
latipg medium. We recognize the 6nan-
cial legislation OF the government from
the commencement as civil war, as an ar
biIary dictation Of the syndicate oi
bankers and usurers with 5 single and
settled purpose Of robbing the many TO
enrich the few.
4th. To remedy and counteract the evil
complained Of, we demand that the gov.
ernment shall issue 3 full legal tender
paper money adequate in volume for the
employment Of labor, the distribution Of
its products, the requirmens Of business
and for the payment Of all interest bear
| ing bonds "a fast a. redeemable; the
withdrawal and cancellation Of all bank
notes designed to circulate a. currency;
the non.exemption from taxation Of all
private properly; the passage OF gradu.
ated income tax; the unlimited coinage
Of gold and silver, and the repeal Of the
specie resumption act; all legaliEed mo-
nopolies abolished and their establish.
ment in the future prohibited.
9th. We recognize the mutual depend.
ence Of capital and labor, and deptecate
all attempts TO antagoniZe them. Combi.
nations OF capital 10 rob and strikes to
resist robbery are destructive Of the true
interests Of both. We denounce alike
communism which demands an equal
division Of property, and the Infamous
financial legislation which takes all from
the many TO enrich the few. We demand
cheap capital and we'll paid labor, in
place OF dear capital and cheap labor.
9Th. To secure the rights and protect
the interests Of employer and employees,
Bureaus Of Statistics should be establish
ed and competent persons appointed to
inquire into and report the condition
and wages Of the working classes In all
departments of industry, that wise, judi
cious and equitable laws may be enacted
in regard 10 hours Of labor and the EN-.
ployment Of minors in manufacturing

will encourage and aid the landless 10 Sc.
curing lands.

other countries should be prohibited un-
der the seyerest penalties, while emigra.
tion, Iiberty-loying, from other lands

sedition and violent measures, and appeal
only TO the good sense, love Of Justice and
patriotism OF the people. and invoke
them TO redress their civil and outrage
Gus wrongs only through the ballot box.

guards and regulations for workshops,
mines and factories.
