to organize for social or material ad-.
vancement; the right of wage workers to
use all lawful means to protect them
selves and resist the encroachment OF
moneyed monopplists, and the right to
fix price for their labor commensurate
for the work required of them, and we
hold that every man has the right to dis
pose of his own. labor upon such terms
as he may think will best promote his
interests. 1t is the duty of the govern
ment to repossess itself of all public
of corporations which have been for
feited by noncompliance with the con-
ditlOns of the grant, and should hold the
same for the use and benefit of the peO-
pie. We unqualifiedly condemn the
action of the Republican party in the
last general assembly of this state OF In
diana, in their revolutionary scheme to
unseat Democratic members and thus
Obstruct needful legislation and subvert
the will OF the people as expressed at
the ballot box, and we heartily indorSe
the action of the Democratic members
thereof for their successful effort
TO PRESERVE THAT MAJORITY.
That the Democratic party of Indiana
believes in fair elections and an honest
count, and deplore and hold up for de-
testation of the people the supreme
fraud or 1851 by which the will OF the
people was set aside and men not elected
were placed in two of the most import
ant Offices of the country. The Demo
cratic party is the faithful friend of the
soldiers, their widows and orphans, and
in appreciation of the heroic and un-
selfish services of the Union soldiers
and sailors, we declare in favor OF lib

ing the enactment by congress of just
and equitable service pension, in recog-
milton of patriotism and a reward for
honorable services rendered the govern
ment. That our confidence in and esteem
for Hon. Daniel Voorhees, and Hon.
David Turpie. our great representatives
in the United States congress, continues
unabated, and we cheerfully greet them
and their Democratic associates from
Indiana in the house of representatives
with the plaudit, swell done, good and
faithful public servants" We heartily
indOrse the pure and able administra-
ton of Gov. Isaac p. Gray and commend
him to the Democratic national cOnven-
tion as the choice of the Democrats of
Indiana for vice president, and hereby
instruct our delegates to present his
name to the convention for that high
Office, and to cast their votes Tor MIN as
a unit when his name is before the ma
tional convention as candidate.
The resolutions were unanimously
adopted, after which the band of music
was asked to enliven the convention
with music.
The convention then adjourned sine
die. All the successful candidates re-
turned thanks for the hOnOrS conferred,
and all the defeated ones promised sup
part to their more lucky competitors.
The only response that had tinge of
acrimOny about it was made by Green
Smith, candidate for attorney gen.
eral. The proceedings throughout
were marked by unusual harmony in
such large gathering, and there was
no out-cropping of the bitterness that
has displayed itself in the past few
days between the Gray and Mcdonald
factions. The opinion seemed to per-
wade the convention that it is the wish
of President Cleveland to have Gov.
Gray on the vice presidential ticket, and
this was evidenced by the liberal ap-
plause which greeted the names of the
two gentlemen when mentioned
together
