9. A demand upon the present congress
TO institute a thorough and searching in
vestigation of the charges that the appar-
the state of New York was obtained by
fraudulent and illegal means, to the end
that justice may be done TO all parties, aud
for the removal Of al doubt from the
minds of the advocates of pure elections
IS to the genuineness of the verdict of the
ballot, so that If it shall appear upon such
investigation that Mr.. Garfield is justly
entitled to the-electoral vote of New York,
he may enjoy the respect of the entire
people as the lawfully chosen president of
the United States. If. on the other hand.
it should be made to appear plainly and un-
mistakably that the result in New York
was brought about By fraudulent means
and In violation of the election laws of that
state, we demand of congress firm and
unyieIding stand in favor of such action
as will secure to the peoplethe services OF
the noble soldier statesman, Winfield
Scott Hancock, as their chief executive
officer.
There are many excellent suggestions in
the above resolutions and especially tina.

vice president by direct vote of the people,

Indiana Democrats in Council.

The Democratic editors of northern
Indiana held a meeting on Friday. Nov
10Th at Fort Wayne, and great interest
was manifested, The situation was fully
discussed, and after q general review Of
the situation, the following resolutions
were unanimously adopted, as the senti
ments of Indiana democrats, with the re-
quest that the sentiments expressed be
urged for general adoption:
/. A change of the constitution of the
United States providing for the election of
the president and vice president By the
popular vote The cumbersome and in
many respects, dangerous machinery of
the electoral college, and the supervising
power OF congress IN partisan sense has
made manifest the necessity of radical
change in this particular.

crude notions OF mere demagogues and

4. Vigorous opposition to the intro>
