THE PLATFORM.
The following platform was adopted:
ResozvcG, That tho Democracy Of Ohio de-
mand free and fair elections, and to that end
denounce all interference with elections by the
military pow er; that the experience of this
and other countries has abundantly proved that
the presence OF troops at the pol is destructive
Of freedom of elections and incompatible with
the existence of free institutions; that the laws
enacted by Congress which, under the pretense
of regulating the manner OF Congressional
elections, is an interference with the election of
State officers and an overthrow of the laws of
the States governing the election of such Off
GERS, are unconstitutional, and for that reason
ought to be repealed. That they are also in
strumen ntaiities OF fraud, force and corruption,
by which the party in power uses the money of
the people to corrupt, and thousands of ire
sponsible officers TO harrass and COerce the
voters, and especially by force and fraud to de-
prive our naturalized citizens Of the right to
vote, and for these reasons also said laws ought
to be Immediately repealed.
Resolpcd That i'm partial juries are essential
to the administration of justice and thereby
to the preservation Of liberty; that no man
can be secure in his person or property when
the juries are packed and controlled by the
government police for partisan and political
purposes; that under the federal jury laws now
IN existence jurics may be and have been so
packed and controlled, and that the highest in
terests of justice and free government require
that these laws be changed SO as to secure fair,
impartial and independent juries in the federal
courts.
.Rssolucd, That the Republican minority IN
Congress- by refusing to vote supplies to main
tain the government unless the jorlty would
aGreo to tho use of troops at the polls, and also
the maintenance Of the unconstitutional, cor :
rupting violent and unj ust election laws
uF0 tHo pff no 1~yk ykorl
State, by his unprecedented use of the veto
power il order to perpetuate said laws and the
use of armed men at the polls have shown a
spirit of faction and want OF devotion to tho
welfare of the country and the preservation of
its constitution and liberty that demand the
condemnation of the whole American people.
ReSolued, That President Hayes, by his frc-
uuent intcrposition OF the veto in order to de-
feat legislation that was plainly constitutional,
that in no way interfered with the independ-
ence Of any other department Of the govern
,nent, and had received the most mature con-
sideration Of Congress, has shown an utter dis
regard of the consideration and principles that
induced the insertion of the veto power in the
constitution, and like disregard of the wishes
and welfare of the people.
Resolved, That we declare it as the sense OF
the Democracy Of Ohio that not dollar should
be appropriated by Congress to pay soldiers
marshals, deputy marshals supervisors o1
election to Interfere with or control elections.
Resohed, That the efforts of the Republican
party to open ana keep alive the war feeling
between the North and South are to be con
demned by every lover Of his country.
ReSolycd That we reaffirm the financial prin
ciples heretofore advocated by the Democratic
party OF Ohio, that the issue of money in any
form, and the regulation thereof, belong to tn
general government alone, and ought not to b.
delegated or entrusted to individuals or corpo
rations That we, therefore, oppose the per
petuation of the present national banking sys
tenn means of control over the currency o
the country, and demand the gradual substitu
tion of treasury notes for national bank cur
rency, to be made receivable for all dues and
legal tender, equally with coin; such govern
ment issues to be regulated upon princi pie
established by legislation or organic Law, so a
to secure the greatest possible stability o
value.
ReS0Iyed, That after changing the valuation
of all property, from the scale of paper none
by which the heavy burden of debts now rest
ing upon the people were created to the forme
level of gold and silver, the change then mad
in the metallic standard itself by the demon
etization of silver, was monstrous fraud upo
the people, cunningly devised in the interest G
the holders of bonds that should be condemne
as in violation of every principle Of homes
dealingsand a covert assault on the fundaments
rights of property; and we therefore deman
the. full restoration of silver to its origins
place rs metal, the same as gold.
Resolved, That the rapid increase of the il
terest bearing debt Of the government undt
the present administration ought to excite tt
serious apprehension of the people. We d.
mal,d that further increase in the bonded del
in time of peace be stopped, and it be put i
process Of extinction.
ReSolued, That the attack made upon tt
State legislature in the Republican platform
wholly undeserved, and that the legislature j
it's arduous work of codifying the laws
the State and in the reduction of fees and sal
ries of county officers, and the passage of
law to protect the ballot and prevent bribery
elections, deserve the commentator 6f Il
people of the State. IT, rsst
ReSo1ctd, That it is the duty of our COVER
ment TO maintain to its fullest extent the do
trine that man may in good faith change b
habitation and become q citizen of any 9th
country. We should protect in every part
the world all our naturaizcd citizens, as
would our native born, and should resist
improper claims upon them by a gove1nme
to which they no longer show allegiance. Y
demand that existing treaties with all forei.
governments be rigidly enforced, and th
early steps be taken to obtain from the Germ
empire the fullest recognition of the right
expatriation.
Frank Hurd, on behalf of the minority
the committee on resolutions, submitted
following additional resolutions:
ResolUcd, That we request the Democra
members of Congress not to vote any approp
alton to the army until provision shall ha
