THE PLATFORM.
DECLARATION OF Principles ADOPTED BY
THE DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL Con-
vENTIoN.

The Democratic party OF the Union,
through ITS representatives in national
convention assembled, recognizes that,
as the nation grows older, new issues are
boru of time aud progress and old issues
perish. But the fundamental principles
of the Democracy, approved by the
united voice of the people, remain. and
will ever remain, as the best AMI only
security for the continuance of free gov
ernmeut. The preservation of personal
rights, the equality of all citizens before
the law, the reserved rights OF the States
and the supramacy of the Federal Gov
ernmeut within the limits of the Consti-
tuition will ever form the true Lnsis of
our liberties and can never be surrender
ed without destroying that balance Of
rights and powers which enables a con-
tinent to be developed in peace aud
social order to be maintained by means
of local self.goverument. But it is in.
dispensable for the practical operation
and enforcement OF these fundamental
principles that the government should
not always be controlled by one political
power. Frequent change of a1ministra-
ton is as necessary as constant r,cur-
renee to the popular will. Otherwise
abuses grow aud the government, instead
OF beiug carried on for tue general well
fare, becomen an instrumentality for I'm
posing heavy burdens ON the many who
are governed for the benefit OF the few
who govern. Public servants thus be-
come arbitrary rulers.
A CHANGE DEMANDED.
This is now the condition of the coun-
try, hence change is demanded. Tue
Republican party, SO far as principle is
concerned, is remiuiscence. Ia prac-
tice it is an organization for enriching
those who control its machinery. The
frauds and jobbery which have been
brought to light in every department OF
the government are sufficient to have
called for reform within the Republican
party. yet those III authority, made reck.
less by the long porsession of power,
have succumbed to its coIrupting in
fluence and have placed in nomination a
ticket against which the independent
portion of the party are in open revolt.
Therefore change is demanded. Such
a change was alike necessary III 1876, bu
the will of the people was theu defeated
by II fraud which can nevr be forgotten
nor condoned. Again in 1850 The change
demanded by the people was defeated 10y
the lavish use of money contributed 10y
INSCRIPTIONS contractors and shameless
jobbers who had bargained for unlawiu
profits or for high Office.

Fusion not Possible.

The ch-talked- oi fusion Of the
Republicans and Greenbackers in this
State is not likely to pan out as the
Radicals would ike it to, The
Banner, the organ OF the National
party in West Virginia, is vigorous
ly opposing a coalition, and warns
the followers Of its party to keep
clear Of anything Of the sort. The
Same feeling Ceems to perVade the
masses Of the party every here
throughout the State, and the Re
publicans who sre and have been
putting forth every effort possible to
bring about fusion with the Ma
tionsls, stand an excellent chance 10
accomplish nothing in this direction.
There is quite number Of Green
hackers in this county, and we do not
believe there is one member Of tie
party who would be willing to form
a fusion with the Republicans. II
we understand the party and its
principles rightly it could much more
consistently fuse with the Democracy
than with the Republicans, and we
believe the leaders Of the organiza-
tion 10 Preston county view the mat
ter in the came wey, at least ,h:s is
the opinion Of Ell .iose whom we
have convsrsod with Cd the subject
Judging the feeling throughout the
State by that which animates the
members Of the party 10 tbs county,
We must at once coDoIods that a
fnsion Of these two parties 10 The
State is an utter imposubii.y an3
can by 20 present known meaus be
accomplished.

Two and a Half Were Girls.

George w. Cable, the New Orleans
novelist, can make a good Sunday
school address as we'll as write clever
stories and crack April-fool jokes, says
the Troy Times. Accompanied by Ros-
well Smith of the Century magazine,
he spent Sunday with friends in Mon
son, attended the Congregational
church and was invited to talk to the
Sunday school in the afternoon. Mr..
Cables fondness for children is pro-
verbal, and he accepted. In the course
of his remarks he raised his hand, ex-
banded the digits and said: II have so
many children at home. How many
is that?" Five" piped up a young
ster promptly. "And half of them are
girls" continued the speaker, stagger-
ng his audience with his apparently
eckless disregard Of truth. "HoW
Luch is half of fve?" asked Mr.. Ca
lie. "Two and half" reprOachfully
eplied little miss in the front pew.
Yes" said the novelist with benig-
ant smile as he saw that his reputa-
ion for veracity was fast slipping
way, "two and a half of them are
yirls and the other two and a half, too
five girls" "Oh," gasped the little
Mss with look of relief, and then
tpple of laughter bubbled up from the
,orner where the "birds-nest'' class sat
loated over the backs of the pews.

A New Disease.

Among the curious maladies which
advancing civilization seems destined
to bring in its train, not the least re-
markable is that on which Partisan
doctors are bestoWing good deal OF
attention just nOw-the obliquity OF
mind. which has been called peW des
espnceS. The sufferer is usually man
apparently in good health, and is af-
fected by no premonitory symptoms,
although, on the other hand, there are
cases where the malady results from
