THE NATIONAL PARTY.
Platform of Principles, dopted at Toedo.A
Ohio, February p, 1873.

On!O, FeDrudrv *, 1910.
WHEREAS, Throughout our entire
country the value of real estate is de-
preciated, industry paralized, trade de-
pressed, business incomes and wages
reduced, unparalleled distress inflicted
upon the poorer and middle ranks of
our people, the land filed with fraud,
embezzlement, bankruptcy, crime, suf-
fering, pauperism and starvation; and
WHEREAS, This state of things has
been brought about by legislation in
the interest of and dictated by money
lenders, bankers and bondholders; and
WHEREAS, While we recognize the
fact that the men in Congress con-
nected with the old political parties
have stood up manfully for the rights
of the people, and met the threats of
the money power and the ridicule of an
ignorant and subsidized press, yet
neither the Republican nor the remo-
cratic party, in their national politics,
propose remedies for the existing evils;
and
WHEREAS, The Independent Green
back party and other associations, more
or less effective. have been unable hith-
erto to make a formidable opposition to
the old party organization; and
WHEREAS, The limiting Of the legal.
tender quality of greenbacks, the chang
ing of currency bonds into coin bonds
the demonstration of the silver dollar,
the excepting of bonds from taxation,
the contraction of the circulating me-
dunn, the proposed forced resumption
Of specie payments, and the prodigal
waste Of the public lands, were crimes
against the people, and, as far as posi-
BILE, the result of these criminal acts
must be ceunteracted by judieicHs leg
islation:
THEREFORE,, We assemble in nation
al convention and make declaration
of our principles, and invite all patri-
otto citizens to unite IN an effort to Sc
cure financial reform and industrial
emancipation. The organization shall
be known as the National Party, and
under this name We will perfect, with
out delay national, state and local as
sociations to secure the election to of
flee of such men only as will pledge
themselves to do all in their power to
establish these principles:
FIRsT-It is the exclusive function
Of the government to coin and create
money and regulate its value. All
bank issues designed to circulate as
money should be suppressed. The cir
culating medium, whether of metal or
paper, shall be issued by the govern
ment, and made full legal tender for
all debts, duties and taxes in the United
States at Its stamped value.
SEcoND-1hee shall be no privileged
class of creditors. Official salaries pen
sions bonds. and all other debts and OBJ
legations, public and private, shall be
discharged In the legal tender money of
the United States, strictly according
to the stipulations of the laws under
which they were contracted.
THrRD-Resolved, That the coinage
of silver be placed on the same footing
Is that Of gold.
FoURIH- Congress shall provide
said money adequate T. the fun en-
paoynsut of labor, To eq1itah1e disiri-

ments Of business, fixing minimum
amount per capita of the popu alton as
near as may be, and otherwise regula-
ting its value by wise and equitable
provisions of law, so that the rate of in
terest will secure to labor it's just re
ward.
FIFTH 1T is inconsistent with the
genius of popular government that any
species of private property should be
exempt from bearing its just share Of
the public burdens. Government bonds
and money should be taxed precisely
as other property, and graduated in
come tax should be levied for the sup
port of the Government and the pay
ment of it's debts.
SIxTH-Public lands are the COM
mon property Of the whole people, and
should not be sold to Spectators nor
granted to railroads or other corpora
tons, but should be donated to actual
settlers, in limited quantities.
SEvENTH-The government should
by general enactments, encourage the
development of our agricultural, min
eral, mechanical, manufacturing, and
commercial resources, to the end that
labor may be fully and proftably en-
ployed, but no monopolies should be
legalized.
EIGHTH-All useless offices should be
abolished, the most rigid economy IA
vored in every branch of the public ser
vice, and severe punishment inflicted
upon public officers who betray the
trusts reposed in them.
NTH AS educated labor has de-
vised means for multiplying production
by inventions and discoveries, and as
their use requires the exercise of mind as
we'll as body, such Legislation should be
had that the number Of hours Of daily
toll will be reduced, giving to the work
ing classes more leisure for improve
ment and their several enjoyments, and
saving them from premature decay and
death.
TENTH adoption OF ali Ameri-
can monetary system, as proposed here
in, will harmonize all differences in re-
gard to tariff and federal taxation, re-
duce and equalize the cost Of transport
tation by land and water, distribute
equitably the joint earnings of capital
and labor, and secure to the producers
of wealth the result of their labor and
skill, and muster out of service the vast
army of idlers who, under the existing
system, grow rich upon the earnings Of
others, that every man and woman
may, by their own efforts secure a CON-
petence, SO that overgrown fortunes and
extreme poverty will be seldom found
in our republic.
ELEVENTH Both national and state
governments should establish bureaus
of labor and industrial statistics, cloth
ed with the power of gathering and
publishing the same.
TwELFTH-That the contract system
of employing labor In our prisons and
reformatory institutions works great in
Justice to our mechanics and artisans,
and should be protected.
THIRTEENTH-The importation Of
servile labor into the United States,
from China, is a problem of the mos,
serions Importance, and we recommend
legislation looking to its suppression.

Standing Questions.

An exchange asks the following
questions, which politicians may study
to some advantage:
l. Why should not the legal ten
der notes issued by the Government
be the only paper currency in the Uni
ted States?
2. Would not this save to the peo-
pie about $28,OOO,OOO a year now
paid to the national banks as interest
on the bonds deposited by them to Sc
cure the payment of the national bank
notes, which are reissued to the GUS
toners of the banks at an interest of
from I to IL per cent, thus causing
the general public-the Government
Ito pay 6 per cent. in gold, and the
borrowing public to pay an average
of 8 per cent. on every dollar of ma
tional bank currency in circulation?
8. Under load of IA per cent. in
terest on every dollar used in BUSH
ness, is not every man, firm, corpora.
ton or tho Government sure to be
sooner or later, brought to bankrupt

4. Is this not the principal cause
of the fact that at present all classes
are in The condition of insolvency and
on the verge Of bankruptcy?

5. Ought not the Government, like
individuals, to receive its own notes
in payment Of all dues, including GUS
tom?
6. Would not this take from the
cold market the buyers Of gold to pay
duties, constituting the great mass Of
cold buyers, and so by largely reduc-
inc the demand, greatly tend to bring
gold to par, and secure specie pay
ments?

In the M1ll1flg ana CCsoitCyeo 700
of.September |, 1877, we gave an &C
count of q rich strike in quartz mace
by Messrs. Landing and burst, at
Corral gulch, near 81 Dorado, GAIA
veras county, not far from the sheep
Ranch mine. In this gulch IN the
early days many rich specimens were
found, but all efforts to discover the
LEDGE from which they evidently came
were unsuccessful. Hearing of these
facts these two men started in to find
the ledge, and struck it the first day,
and it was remarkably rich. The
ledge was from fifteen to thirty inches
wide. and is called the "Hero." At
the time we mentioned the ledge be-
fore Mr.. Landing brought to the city

rock which he sold to the jewelers.
here for $886.42.
Mr.. Landing came to town this
week again, with another lot OF specl-
men ore for jewelers. purposes, which
he showed to us. 1t is extremely
rich, and just the thing for quartz jew
elry. They have made one crushing
Of $50 tons in their eight-stamp mill
this month, which cleaned up SIG per
ton. Some fifty tons Of this was pref
ty good rock and the balance poor.
It was crushed as it came, but they
expect the next run to be much better.
Since his last visit Mr.. Landing
has located three lodges more, two OF
them very good and the third only
good prospect. He has taught his ut
tie boys something about prospecting,
and they found a piece of cropping
about as big as mans head, within
800 yards of the mill, on Murray
creek. 1t was all there was above
ground. but in going to work hne
2O-inch ledge was developed, which
has been stripped some sixty feet, and
shows free gold plentifully. tits good
milling rock and prospects well. A
tunnel is now being run on this ledge
which is called the olive Oak"
On the other two lodges not very
much work has been done, but they
expect their next crushing from the
Hero and Live Oak will be good ones.
They have been unable to do much at
the mill this winter, as they were short
of wood and the roads were too bad
for hauling. The battery OF this mill
is set on solid like oak, set endwise
on the bedrock.-[Mining and Scien-

TO TIE TG.

lis not the girl with the roguish eye,
And ripelips like cherry,
That watches all the passers by,
And with each one is merry;
That still is false, and still is fair,
4 loving heart should tie to
For she is as tickle as the air,
And will not do to tie to.
She gives 4 side glance and looks down
Her heart seems in futter,
And at her smile or at her frown
Your thoughts you cannot utter.
She smirks, and seems all tenderness,
Perhaps she gives sigh, too;
Heed not her signals of distress
She will not do to tie TO.
She has smile for one and all;
Her heavy silken lashes
Above her bright eyes slowly fall
As she her quick glance flashes,
She seems to love, or love the best
The one she chances nigh to,
Beware Of her, and cease your quest
She will not do to tie to.
Bat when you see maiden bright
And full of tender graces;
Upon her countenance the light
That dwells in heavenly faces;
Modest in thought, and all your speech
Scarce ready to reply to;
Oh, then, your eager arms outstretch-
For she will do to lie to.
You want, in one you make your choice
Ofmodesty the leayen;
The low, sweet accents of voice
Which brings you nearer heaven.
When you have found her, bend the knee
And make her yours-or try to;
For trust me, friend, there cannot be
A better one to tie.
