gressmen spoke and predicted the easy
defeat of Blaine by whoever was nomi-
mated by the Democrats. At last ex-
Governor Pillsbury, of Maine, was

the audience crowded up to hear him

articles in newspapers, had watched his
methods and tried to unravel his mys

in this battle they had no small mo-

and smartness he had no equal in thi

At last we have it Have what ?
Something slled Democratic plat

out of its shell, a regular roaring Shang-
hal, two columns long in BREWER in tn,
largest papers. 1t is an excellent docu-
ment for laboring men to read, provided
they can spare day from their labor
TO read it. Understand it they cannot,
except that it must be looked upon a. a
1aughable farce, huge collection AM
play of words to deceive the people. |,
is almost laughable to see how nearly il
has been shaped to cover the sam,
ground and to express the same princi
pies as the Republican platform, excep
that it lacks its brevity and common
sense expressions and on the TART
issue it differs from the Republican
platform in this respect it is longe
and means nothing. The Convention
had the good sense to look upon tn
whole thing as huge farce, and CAV
no part of it sincere applause excep
the paragraph abiding TO Tilden.
The whole thing looks like a jolk
rather than a sincere declaration o
principles. There never was a docu
inent read before an intelligent audi
ence pretending to reflect its views tina
fell 80 fiat, and the coldness and indii
ference with which it was received WA
the strongest evidence of the good sen
and intelligence of those who compose
the Convention.

tfour readers we have not given ther
the whole of the platform, but onl
such detatched portions as we though
would weary them the least. An hon
eat comnarison only is needed betwee
the Republican and the Democra'
platforms to show the straight forwar
honesty Of the first, and the crooked dl

WHAT is the use of city ordinance.
if they are not enforced. Railroad
trains are prohibited by an ordinance
from running through our city from
West to Lombard streets, at greater
rate of speed than eight miles an hour
and yet every time fatal accident &C.
ours, it appears the trains are running
nearer 80 miles an hour than eight. We
understand the Importance Of railroad
trains making time, but a compliance
with the ordinance in this city could

1t is entir ely unnecessary that the
committee on resolutions at the Nation
NJ Democratic Convention should spend
10 much time and keep the Convention
in session so leng at 80 great an expense
In formulating platform of principles
that will only be used for the purpose
Of deceiving the people everywhere, in
regard to the true purposes and aims OF
the Democratic party. These are we'll
known and understood by the people,
no matter what kind of resolves are
strung together into heterogeneous
mass and called a platform of princi-
pies.
A single plank with single inscrip-
ton inscribed in these words : Any
thing 30 beat Blaine" would have com
prised everything. 1t would have
suited the Democrats of every section
and every State who are more intent
upon filing the one hundred thousand
Federal offices Of the nation than they
are to carry out any particular policy.
This brief platform would be admirably
adapted 10 the Democrats who, against
their will, are compelled to be protec.
tionists it would suit the free-traders
who Seem 70 have an endless antipathy
TO the manufacturing Interests of the
country it would suit the extreme
temperance men and extreme liquor
men equally well it would suit the
long haired men and short haired
women called Women S1ffragists -
1t would suit the polygamists, the gam
blers, the monopolisis, the land grab
bers, the " Brigaoiers," and the dis
loyal of all Glasses. IL would be ad-
mirably adapted TO Chevaler Bayard
and patrician Batter, and it would be
all things to all men, just as much
rs a platform made up of sense
less rhetoric and unmeaning words pub.
lished together columns in length.
Everybody knows that it is the Fed
eral offices the Democrats are after
why do they not say 80 in single
short sentence and be done with it :
The thing called platform that will
be Enumerated and published from Chi.
cago will be but the text for misre pre-
sentation, and it will be carefully dove
tailed together for deceptive purposes
There will be no heart, elrnestness mol
life in it, and it will fall dead before al
intelligent people. The Democratic
party ought to know that it cannot wiz
by deception. 1t has been trying to d
SO for the last twenty.four years, bu
has ingloriously failed
1t will fail again Oh account of it
dishonesty, and it will fail for all tim
in the futura until H. shnNxa a raul M =

and to be loyal to the best interests @

the smaller rooms were in demand for use by var
iuus committees of this and other societies.
During tine year there have been held twelve re-
gular and two special meetings and thirty two per-
sons have been elected to membership.
At the meeting in January of this year, the
Building Committee, having completed instruc-
irons in regard to the finishing Of the building,
made their final report showing in total numbers:
receipts. 81, O9S.45; disbursements, S20,602,SS,
leaving balance Of -$265.57 which was turned
into the general fund These receipts were mater
tally increased by the proceeds of a fair held in
this by the ladies, to whose efforts and labors
we were indebted for the sum Of about $50.
Our committees have been at work, and we trust
have accomplished good, but we feel more and
more the need of general secretary, who can give
his whole time to the work. There is absolute need
for firm directing hand, and for that thought and
attention which cannot be given BY me- taken M
with professional or mercantile duties. Our build
ing has not been as attractive, or the welcome TO
strangers as hearty as il we had such a person.
Since July We have been in communication with
San Francisco and New York in regard to secur-
ing one, and have now what we consider good pro-
spects of having one with US soon.
Captain Bray left for the United States he was
instructed TO ascertain conditions and privileges
of membership IN the International Association
and report TO us. This he did aud we are now re-
gularly connected with that body.
Ii is the experience of older societies that to
make an association of this kind successful, il
must make a speciality of that which its name sig
nifies, the helping of young men. This is being
felt with us and during the year the Chinese work
which had been conducted by this society has pas
sed by general consent into the hands of the
Hawaiian Board.
With building free from debt, and person il
the capacity of General Secretary to superintenC
affairs, we feel that with the confidence and sup
port OF this community we shall during the com
ing year make this Association one of power IL
| Christian work, and necessity to this city.
