THE wORKINGMEN

Platform adopted az State Contention at
San Francisco.
SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 25.-The working
mems convention adopted platform call
ing for the restricting and abolition Of Chinese
cheap labor; demanding that land donated
by the government in pursuance of schemes
of individuals and corporations should re-
actual settlement, and that individuals hold
ing by purchase or imperfect title, land in
excess Of one square mile, be restricted to
that amount only, and that re-survey of
the State be had, to ascertain the extent to
which land has been wrongfully appropriated;
insisting that the national government shall
sistent with the agricultural, manufacturing
uncontrolled by ring brokers and bankers;
that the pardoning power conferred on the
President and Governors of States should be
abolished, and the same invested in com
missions; that malfeasance in public office
should be punishable by imprisonment for
life, without intervention of the pardoning
power; abrogation of the contract system in
State prisons and reformatory institutions;
all labor on public works, State or munich
pal, should be performed by the day, at the
current wages, and at hours SUFFICIENT for a
days work for any man: and the law should
make it so that all public officers should re-
ceive fixed salary, and fees should be ac-
counted for as public monies, and the con-
stitution of the United States should be
amended to the effect that the President,
Vice President and Senators be elected by
direct vote of the people.

sacrifice. But she was in infinitely better
condition then than we are to-day. Up to
1878, the date of resumption In that country,
an era of great prosperity had prevented
that, She was then the creditor nation while
we are the debtor nation of the world. The
Peel bill was urged upon the same grounds
that are urged here to-day-that values
could not be disturbed to greater extent
than the difference between the gold
and paper standard. The people
for 80 years after were grooming from the
effects of that measure, and even to this day
have not entirely recovered. The British ma
ton is wealthy, but the wealth is in the
hands of the few. Within six months after
resumption, all values deprecated SO per
cent.-half the currency was Withdrawn, and
values, of course, doubled. AL mortgages
were sacrificed and general ruin and desola-
ton followed. This deplorable result grew
out Of the necessary contraction of the cur
rency, and the boarding of the currency
which followed led to still further
ruin and disaster. This result
will inevitably attend our attempt
to resume upon GIL millions of currency
with only 1856 millions of gold.
The speaker proceeded to describe the eff
fects of resumption, showing that it meant
the doubling of every mans Indebtedness
who is i'll debt, and bringing universal ruin
upon the country. He cited the fact that
when England undertook to resume there
was then in that country, as there is now in
this, but slight difference between paper
and gold, but that as soon as resumption
was entered upon, the difference began tc
grow greater until in short time it had
reached twenty-five and then fifty per cent
SENATOR DoNNELLY.
Senator Donnelly was the next speaker
and his argument was strong and convincing
He concluded as follows:
Let President Hayes attempt to ares
this public sentiment and allow this resump
ton act to be naugurated, (the effort vii
and must fail, and desolation and woe vii
come to thousands of households wher
peace and plenty now smile. The distance
between general prosperity and crushing de
preston is after all but slight.
At the conclusion of Mr.. Donnelly's re
marks Mr.. Banning moved the adoption 0
the resolutions, which motion prevailed.
j M. E. j. Hodgson protested against tn
adoption of the resolution as the other sid
had not been heard. AS member of til

declared the sense of the body when but on

Zach Chandler has been airing himself in
the corridors, Hobbies and chambers of Con-
gress for several days past. There has
been much speculation as to the object of
his visit. It was said at first that Chandler
had come over from his farm in Michigan
to assist Edmunds to secure the Washington
postofice for another term, one appoint
ment on which Chandler and Gov Bagley
were united. The real purport of his visit
is to stir up strife between the President
and the Congressional faction opposing the
administration. Chandler became alarmed
at the prospect of peace between the Re
publicans and the President at the opening
of Congress after the recess He has been
particularly active in stirring up the Michi-
gan delegation to strife. How well he has
succeeded time will show.

The Maine Election.

The election IN Maine Monday was
of great Importance, as an index of
the spread of the Greenback heresy
in New England. The prediction of
Senator Eaton, of Connecticut, that
the Greenback party in that State
would not receive more than 1000
votes, is not now likely, it would
seem, to be verified. In Maine the
National Greenback Labor" party,
under the lead of a candidate for
Governor, Jos. w. Smith, who is
classed as "a soft-mOney demagogue
of the worst type" have made dis
tinct breach in the ranks of both the
democratic and Republican parties.
and probably hold the balance of
power in the State. 1t is reported
that the vote in the State. which is
20 per cent. larger than usual, will
stand about thus for Governor Con-
nor, Republican, $4,000; Garcelon,
Democrat, 10000; Smith, Greenback
$4,000. This will throw the election
into the Legislature. 1t is believed
that the irrepressi5le Eugene Hale
has been beaten by Thompson Murch
Greenback- Labor candidate, and that
Llewelly Powers, Republican, has
been defeated by George w. Ladd,
Democrat and Greenback.
The Republicans probably carry
the Senate, but the Democrats and
Greenbackers in conjunction have
most probably got majority in the
House. This, if there should be no
election of Governor by the people,
will lead to a curious complication.

MIR, Swans Political Decapitation

"Off with his head so much for
Buckingham !" The Hon. Thomas
Swami, after many years devoted to
the public service has signified his
intention of retiring into private life.
1t does not require very close &C.
auaintance with local politics, or,
with all respect to him, be it said,
with Mr.. Swami himself, to make
one very sure that that gentleman
has not stepped down and out'' of
his own free will. 1t is an open Sc.
cret, in fact, that he had to retire,
and that he did so reluctantly at the
bidding of that small but potent
clique which rules our Maryland pol
itics.
We are no special friends or cham
pions of Mr.. Swami, though we do
think the valuable services he has
rendered Baltimore in the past
should have entitled him to more
consideration than he received fom
our political dictators. Certainly,
though Mr.. Swami is old, he ispot
inefficient, and his experience, and
in official matters should court fol-
much.
But our political Warwicks wee
of a different opinion. They nit
only decided that Mr.. Swami rust
retire, but they have decidedwho
shall reign in his place. To tP de-
cision of this almighty hAlf-ozen,
even the redoubtable Mr.. Swan had
to bow, and to make way with.ll the
grace he could assume for thelonor-
able gentleman who is annoured in
advance as his successor.
Mr.. Swami would have cotested
the point, but he was too wellversed
in Maryland politics t" hopeor sue
cess by an appeal TO the peore. He
knew full we'll that the people have
nothing to do with elections in
Maryland, and that to attemlt to ap-
peal from German & Co.. would be
like appealing a case fromthe Su-
preme Court to Justice of tie peace
And we call this a peopb's goy-
ernment-we call this a Democratic
city-and this is the WORK of the
Democratic party! What an out
rageous farce!
How long will the people let five
or six men of puny minds rule them

The Southern Armed Political Can

The Democracy of South Carolina
is conducting the canvass in good
earnest. Wade Hampton addressed
the meeting recently held at Spartan
burg, aud urged the necessity Of
securing control of the Legislature,
and was especially anxious to see a
Democratic majority in the Congress
sional delegation. so that the vote of
the State could be cast for Demo-
cratic President, in case the election
were thrown in the House in 1881.
Before the speaking began there was
a parade of the military in attend
ance, and the line, made up of rifle
clubs and other fully armed organi-
cations, was over a mile long. The
Anderson Is. c. Aatelligencer says:
"They (the rifle clubs) are the most
efficient means that can possibly be
devised to keep down the opposition
and insure an overwhelming Demo-
cratic triumph. Mounted clubs
secured the retention of South Caro-
lima in 1877, and we must look to
them to retain it in 1878 and 1880.
