THE CRIME OF THE INDIANA DEMOCRACY

THE CRIME OF THE INDIANA DEMOCRACY.
The Journal has always maintained that
partisanship has no proper place where a
crime has been committed It is then the
duty of all good citizens, no matter to what
party they belong, to unite in endeavoring to
secure the conviction of the criminal; or, at
all events, to do nothing which is calculated
to impede the course of justice
Simeon Coy and w. f. A Bernhamer were
guilty, at the last election, of crime as great
as any which could be committed against the
political rights of the citizens of Indiana.
They conspired to forge and alter the tally
sheets, in order that men who were duly
elected by the people of Marion county might
be deprived Of the offices to which they were
entitled. The forgery was detected almost
Immediately, and the guilty participants
were strongly suspected. Simeon Coy was the
political representative of the Democratic party
in Marion county, being chairman of the GEN.
trail committee. and the forgery was commit
ted for the benefit of candidates of that party.
But in spite of this, if the Indiana Democracy
had repudiated the act and permitted justice
to take ito course, or had done nothing to
ratify and condone the crime, they could
Justly say that it was the crime of an individ-
ual, and the party was not responsible. But
by ratification, by sympathy, and by an
effort to block the wheels of justice, the party
itself could become an accessory after the
fact, and as responsible for the crime as if it
had originally been sharer IN the guilty
purpose.
The people of Indiana have cause to blush
that the mass of public sentiment in one
of the two great parties of this
State seems to have deliberately rati-
fed and approved of this forgery.
No other conclusion is possible. The infu-
ence of the Indianapolis Sentinal, the organ
of the party, as well as the Democratic Gov
ernor of the State, the Democratic Congress
man from Marion county, the former candi-
date for Vice-president on the Democratic
ticket, the past and present Democratic mem
bers of the Senate Of the United States-in
short. the influence of every distinguished
name in Indiana, belonging to that party,
with scarcely an exception, has been cast in
the scale for the purpose Of screening men
who were known to be felons, a1d who have
now been convicted and sentenced as such.
Not only did VIM. Fl. Englisb say to Coy

THE New York Times discovers in the
Allison movement the Harrison boom, the
Depew candidacy and others of the like,
deep-laid scheme to finally force the nomina-
ton of Mr.. Blaine at Chicago. The only
name mentioned which the Times thinks is
not in the interest of this awful conspiracy is
that of Judge Gresham, who is not favorably
regarded by the Blaine men, and whose NOM
ination would be accepted by the country as a
distinct reputation of Mr.. Blaine and all
Blaine influences. It requires profound po-
itical acumen and the most overmastering
sagacity to all this; but the Times sees it
just as clearly as it sees in Grover Cleveland
the greatest, purest civil-service reformer of
mankind. BY the way, would the Times
support Judge Gresham

THE necessity of the gang of tally-sheet
forgers and their confederates was so great
that at the commencement of the last trial it
was found necessary by some of their friends
to send to Judge Woods on the eve of trial
an internal machine for the purpose of
assassinating and manning the Judge, and
sailing him from the performance of the
duties of his Office, lest these wretches should
be convicted.
What do the people of Center township
think of the party for whose purpose this
forgery became necessary, and then assassina-

to consummate the crime. aiding by his voice
and signature to the forged returns to give

DEMOCRATIC papers wax loftily indignant
or intensely sarcastic over Senator Ingalls's
assertion that the Southern Confederacy is
still an active, organized political power; but
for some reason none of them has anything to
say about the formation of confederate associa-
tons in The South. The president of one
just organized in Nashville, Tenn, has issued
call to confederate veterans in which he
says none will be admitted to membership ex-
cept those .'who did their whole duty in the
late war between the States excluding all
who shirked or deserted" The New South"
has certainly very strong favoring of the
old South, whether Ingalls, be right or wrong.

procure from the grand juries before him q

It. The .4fne Roman hand" of Mr.. Sullivan

the fact that the late federal grand jury found
sufficient evidence upon which to indict GER
tain persons for violation of the federal stat
utes growing out of this same matter, it
would seem that you could hardly experience
any great difficulty in procuring the evidence
upon which to indict." And, again: 1.-THE
crime and the proper investigation of the
crime are by no means political or partisan
matters. It is simply a question of vindicat-
ing the law and Furnishing crime.
Anything but a fearless discharge of your
duty in this matter. gentlemen, will but tend
