The Platform Of the Demo.
cratic Party.

The Democratic Party Of South Carolina,
in State Convention assembled, rec flirming
the principles and declarations of the State
platforms Of 1876 and 1878, aud their
continued devotion to the principles of the
National Democratic Party, and pledging
to that party their earnest cooperation and
support, declare the following principles as
formulating the policy of the South Carolina
Democracy in State and Federal nffairs, and
invite tho aid ind support of all good
citizens in carrying them into effect:
|. Wise and just legislation, the impar-
tlal administration of equal laws, economy
with efficiency in every department of the
State government.
2. Popular education is the bulwark Of
free institutions. Liberal appropriations
for the public schools for the whole people
3. The systematic efforts of the Rcpubli-
lican party to obstrucl reform and destroy
good government in South Carolina by
turning to partisan purposes the appointing
power Of Tie Federal Government is o
standing menace to the people of this State
and growing danger to good citizens in
every part of tho Union. The Federal
Offices in this State are mado political in
tirmarics and training schools for tho defea,
OF honest government in South Carolina.
a. Honest homo rule. The Democracy
of South Carolina, representing tho tax
payers of the State and majority of tho
whole people, invite and have the right to
expect the sympathy and support of their
fellow countrymcn in their strenuous efforts
to preserve oil intelligent and equal admin
istration of the government.
5. The PRACTICE of packing jurcs in
political cases 10 tho United States Courts
in this State is criminal violation of the
inaionable right of every citizen to fair
trial by a jury of his peers.
8. The extension of tho franchise. as
political result of the late war, has enlarged
enormously the number of present aud
prospective voters requiring education in
tho public schools. The burden was in
creased, while the ability of the State to
bear it was diminished Tho Federal Co
vernment, by liberal appropriations from
tho Treasury, on tho basis of iliteraov

tho evil of non.intclligent suffrage A
national danger calls for national action and

Z. Civil service reform, appointments to
minor Offices under tests that will indicate
the qualifications of tho applicant, promo
ton by mort, fixed tenure of Office and
no removals, except for cause.
.. Blackmailing public servants, under
tho guiso of political assessments, converts
tho public treasury, to the extent of tho
contributions called Tor, into oempugn
fund for tho advancement of political
party, thus taxing tho whole people for.
partisan purposes.
