THE PRESIDENTS JOURNEY.
A Series Of Indiana OvatiOns-His Ar.
rival in Chicago.

CHICAGO, Aug. 3.
The train which brought President Arthur
to Chicago was the handsomest one that ever
entered the city. II was composed of the
engine Chester A. Arthur. which was covered
with flags, bunting and flowers; smoker,
the new dining car from the Northern Pacific
railroad which attracted so much atten-
ton during the late railroad ex-
position, George M. Pullman's personal car.
which was devoted to the Presidents i'm :.
mediate party, and the Monon, the elegant
private car of Colonel Young, the president
of the Louisville, New Albany and Chicago
railroad
The party consisted of President Arthur,
Secretaries Folger and Lincoln, Postmaster
Genaral Gresham, Judge Rawlins, Colonel
Jameson of the railway mail service, Lieut.
Gov. j. F. Hanna, Hon. George Friedly,
. Major Nulchey, Capt. M. NJ. Carley, Hon.
S. Barlow, w. s. Culbertson, M. Melon.
aid, W. Farley, John Newhouse. w. w.
Lewis, Hon. +. f. ID. Mckinley, Judge j. B.
VOORHEES, and Judge Wilson, all of Indiana
AT each station through Indiana where
stops were made, loyal committees boarded
the train and rode to the next station. Much
enthusiasm was manifested by the people,
but in the southern part of the State it SEEM
ed to be mostly evoked by the presence of
Postmaster General Gresham, who is a great
favorite in that part of Indiana.
The train arrived at Chicago at 6 As p. M.
and. agreeably to the request Of the Presi-
dent, made through Secretary Lincoln, there
was no formal reception. There was a great
crowd and much cheering. As soon as the
train came to full stop, the police cleared
the entrance and Mayor Harrison, Cole ctor
Jesse Spaulding, Postmaster Frank Palmer,
and c. b. Farwell advanced to the car and
greeted the President and his party inform
ally. Escorted by Mayor Harrison and John
B. Drake, the President passed through the
throng, lifting his tall white hat in response
to the loud and repeated cheers. entered the
carriage and was driven to the Grand Pacific
Hotel.

The Presidential party passed here at 4
o'clock this afternoon. The party is expect
ed at Omaha at 4 A. NJ. Saturday.

POLITICAL.
The Platform Adopted in the State Con
veuti0n.

81. fACL, aug. D.
The Minnesota democratic convention met
here Yesterday and adopted the following
platform:
We reafirm our devotion to the time hon.
ored maxims of the democratic party thst the
government is the best that governs the least,
which leaves tie ii liens in the enjoyment
of the greatest personal liberty consistent
with the right of others and of the public
welfare, and while it affords full protection
t. life and property allows the creeds, BUSH
ness and customs of the people to remain un-
feftered by sumptuary laws, class legislation
and extortionate monopolies.
First-Every special tax levied upon the
many for the profit of few ring monopolies
and producing revenue in excess of the wants
of the government economically administered,
is unjust, tyrannical and dangerous. sound
policy requires that the business of the peo-
pie be free from oppressive duties and vexa-
tious restraints. and all legislation in refer
ence thereto should be impartial in object
and equal in its burdens. We therefore favor
such thorough revieion of the present tariff
laws as will remedy the existing evils and re-
cult in the establishment of tariff for rev.
enue only as the permanent commercial
policy of the county.
Second-Constitutions are made to protect
the minority of the people against the en-
croachments of the majority. No proposition
for change of or amendment to the organic
Law of the Stare, should be entertained or
submitted to the vote of the people, which if
adopted would prevent the minority from
exercising inherent and inalienable rights.
We consider the enactment of sumptuary and
prohibtory laws subversive of the rights of
the people aud We are opposed to them.
Third-We appreciate the Importance of
liberal appropriations for the improvement of
the Mississippi, but inasmuch as the river
and harbor bill has, under republican admin
istratiOn, become an omnibus bill for corrupt
combinations by members Of Congress, we
would favor the adoption of q constitutional
amendment, comforting upon the President
power to veto such provisions of the bill as
in his judgment are unwarrrnted.
Fourth-The patent laws should be revised
to the end that innocent purchasers of man
ufactured articles using the same in good
faith, shall be protected from harrassing and
oppressive suits for infringement of patent
rights.
Fifth-The maintenance of the power of
any political party for an undue length of
time, is an assumption of power inconsistent
with the principles of the government and
dangerous to the rights of the people. We
therefore urge upon the electors of this State
that they carefully investigate the existing
state of things with reference to change of
the State administration, in their own inter-
ests.
The convention nominated the following
ticket:
Governor-N. W. McNain.
Lieutenant Governor-R d. Fragee.
Secretary of State-J. j. Green.
Treasurer-John Ludwig.
Attorney General. W. Willis.
Railroad Commissioner-P. Linholm.

FROM WASHINGTON.
DEBT AND REVENUE.
Last Months ReductiOn-The Falling
OFF in Internal Revenue Receipts.
WASHINGTON. Aug. 3,

WASHINGTON, Aug. 3.
fthe debt reduction shall continue at the
present rate, it will require little more than
three years to pay all the bonds which the
government can now control. The secretary
will have until November next to accumulate
the 50 900, 600 necessary to satisfy the bond
call which has just been made. The decrease
of some eight millions of debt reported in
the last statement however, is apparent only
the payment of some three millions of &C
crude interest and an increase of over FIVE
millions in the crsh balance, accounts prac-
tically for the entire reduction of the debt
and less cash in the treasury. The falling
off of four and half millions in the internal
revenue receipts is significant, and revenue
officials are of the opinion that this will be
observed each month as an effect of the new
internal revenue law.

west and south that the company is receiv-
ing constant accessions from the ranks of the
strikers in all quarters. The leaders in the
strike say the situation, a. far As they are
concerned, is unchanged.
PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 8.
The officers of the Philadelphia & Reading
railroad company have arranged a system Of
telephone service to be used on all its lines
should the operators be ordered by the
brotherhood to strike. An officer Of the
company states that the company is prepared
at moments notice to meet the strike.

The London press assumes that the as
sassination Of James Cary was planned by
secret societies in Ireland or the United
States and deliberately carried into effect
by one OF their agents. The facts. so far
as they have been reported in the cable
dispatches, point to different conclusion.
The assassin himself states that he did not
know who his victim was until the news
papers at the Cape established his ident,-
ty. whereupon the murder was planned.

The fret day of the Louisville EXPOSE
ton was made peculiarly attractive by the
presence of the President. who meets
gracefully the demands of such occasions.
No local or State affair merely is this ex.
hibition. and the interest Of the country in
the enterprise was properly exemplified
BY the participation Of the chief magis-
trate in the exercises which formally
opened the Exposition.
