OHIO STATE PLATFORM
OF the National Greenback Labor Par
ty, Adopted at Columbus, June
4th 1879.

WHEREAS, We recognize the deplora
BILE commercial and industrial condition of
our country as something appalling to con-
template, and unhesitatingly charge this
suffering and degradation as the result of
the legislation of the past quarter century
being solely in the interest of moneyed
aristocracy and corrupt corporations.
We hold both the Republican and
Democratic parties equally responsible for
the nefarious and ruinous policy that has
been pursued, and point to their record as
full and complete evidence to the people
that it is folly to hope for relief from eth
er, and therefore declare:
1st. In the recognition and distribution
of civil and political rights and privileges,
there should be no favoritism Cd account
of birth, color, creed or financial condition.
2. The General Government should
issue an ample volume of full legal tender
currency to meet the business needs of the
country and to promptly pay all its debts.
3. The funding of the National debt
into long time bonds to be paid over and
over in the form of interest, absorbing the
wealth of the nation, making business
prosperity an impo ssibility, reducing the
laborer to a condition Of servile slavery
and rendering the welfare Of the nation
ubservient to the interests of the bond
holding class, is an outrage 80 monstrous
that any political party that sanctions it is
unworthy the support of intelligent and
honest men.
4. We demand the immediate calling
and psym ent of all United States bon de
in full legal tender money.
5. We are inhexibly opposed to the
issue by Government of interest bearing
bonds of any description, for any purpose
whatever.
6. The National banking system should
be Immediately abolished.
7. A tariff amply sufficient for the
protection of American industries should
| be maintained until true financial system
may have shown it to be unnecessary to
tax labor for the support Of capital.
g. All internal revenue taxes should be
dispensed with and graduated income
tax be substituted.
g. While any resident of auothe,
country of sufficient intelligence and en-.
terprise to desire to better her or his con.
dition by making a home on American
soil, must be welcomed, the importation
of aervile labor from any quarter, under
any pretense whatever, to compete with
American free labor, should be prohibited
under the severest penalties.
10. That the elevation of labor to il
proper sphere and the education of the
masses to a correct appreciation of its i'm
portance in the affairs of smen should be
one of the principal aims and objects O
this party.
IL. We demand an equalization O
bounties for soldiers.
IL. That prison labor should be utiliz
ed by the State.
13. That eight hours shall be lsga
days work.
IA. We denounce all reference to on
late civil war of a malicious and insult
ing nature as revolutionary and wholly
inconsistent with the principles of fire.
government and antagonistic to the resto
] ration of the old motto, "United we stant
r divided we fall"

Whose Mistake.

Last December we sold in-lot No.
141 to Mr.. John Bieg, and paid the
taxes for the year, giving Mr.. Bieg
the receipts for the year which he
has in his possession at the present
time. During the latter part of last
June A. E. Magruder wrote to Mr..
Karr for his taxes and the Administra-
tors and also M. & F. Magruder's.
In reply Mr.. Karr sent up their taxes
and also ten dollars and sixty cents
additional which was the tax which
had already been paid by me on in-lot
No. 141, and the receipts had been
handed to Mr.. Bieg last Dec. Some
time ago we met Mr.. Bieg and told him
about the matter and also cautioned
him to take care of his receipts. A
couple of weeks ago Mr.. Bieg spoke
to Mr.. Karr about having paid his
taxes and having the receipts, and
that we had told him that he had
sent the taxes up again to be collected.
Mr.. Karr said that he knew the taxes
had been paid and that there was not
word of truth in the report that he
had written about them and further
more that he had not written at all.
The following will show for itself
that he did not only write but that
he also included in-lot No. 141 on
which the taxes had been paid: The
postal was addressed to A. f. Magru-
der:
