INDIANA DEMOCRATS.

Indiana, like New York, is one of the
pivotal States, whose electoral vote is
necessary to Democratic success. Her
Democratic State Convention, which
endorsed Mr.. Cleveland for renomina-
ton, adopted the following which has
been construed, rightly we think, as a
declaration against both the Ocala de-
mands and Prohibition:
1t is uncompromisingl opposed to
the enlargement and concentration OF
Federal powers and usurpation of the
functions of the State, to subsidies in
every form, to every species of class
legislations and government partner
ship with private enterprises and the
whole theory of paternalism. We be-
lieve that in free country the curtail-
ment of absolute rights of the indi-
vidual should only be such as is essen
tial to the peace and good order of the
community, and we regard all legisla-
ton looking to the infringement of lib
erty of person or conscience, not abso-
lut ely necessary to the maintenance of
public order, as vicious in principal
and demoralizing in practice.
The financial plank, which the Clar-
ion warmly endorses and says the Ma
tional Convention itself might we'll
adopt, is as follows.
We believe that there should be
kept in constant circulation full and
sufficient volume of money, consisting
of gold, silver and legal tender paper
currency at par with each other.
This on its face appears very fair and
plausible, but in fact it is straddle on
the great currency question, and may
be construed to mean much or little
according to the faith and earnestness
of the reader. When it is remember
ed that the annual product of gold and
silver, over and above what is consum-
ed i'll the arts, does not keep pace in
prOportionate ratio with the demand
for an increased volume of circulating
medium, and that most of the illegal
tender paper currency" may continue,
as heretofore, to be issued through the
odious national banking system, in
stead of by the government direct, the
plank may mean very little in the way
of cheap money and financial relief to
the people.
1t is significant that neither this nor
any other Democratic Conven ton
which has met to appoint delegates to
the National Convention, has uttered
a clear-cut declaration against the out
rageous national bank monopoly, and
that this financial plank which the
Clarion now commends for adoption
to the National Convention, doesn't
go even far enough to say the illegal
tender paper currency for which the
necessity is recognized, should be is
sued by the government instead Of the
banks.

fluences prevail and dictate the party |
policy and candidate, and arrayed |
against the only party that had the
courage and independence to endorse
and fight for the triumph of Alliance
principles; yet that is what the position
assumed by the distinguished Alliance
leaders named will almost inevitably
lead to.
A few observations on the dcclara-
ton of Capt. Burkitt that IF those of
us who are demanding certain reforms
cannot get them inside the Democratic
organization, see no hope of doing so
by separate action"
Political parties do not often reform
themselves. Once bad, the tendency is
to go from bad to worse. The Republi-
can party is striking illustration of
this, and the chief Indictment Alliance
men and other reformers bring against
the Democratic party is that it has
grown too much like it's old antagonist.
The independent voters of the country
the men who enthrone patriotism
and the common veal far above the
success of any party-are the ones who
must be relied upon for reformation in
all times of real political corruption
and emergency. If it were not for the
patriots who have the Independence to
sever party ties when the public good
demands it, party once entrenched in
power, would always remain in power.
No fact in politics is more generally
recognized than that the minority party
must always look to this element for
its hope of success. The Democratic
party is doing so at this time. To the
much abused independent Mugwumps,
the Democrats owe the election of the
only Democratic president they have
had in 30 years.
Another fact equally as patent is,
that political parties, especially after
they have become perverted and cor
rupt, are guided by eXpediency rather
than principle. Therefore, for Alli-
ancemen and other reformers to go into
a new party in large numbers this year
would result in one of two things in
the near future. 1t would compel one
of the old parties, as a matter of party
expediency, to cut loose from the mon
eyed influence of the Eastern States,
which now dominates them both to the
hurt of the masses. or it would force a
consolidation of the two. and the build
ing up of a great and powerful new
party which would soon be match for
both combined
There is something, but not every
thing in name. True democratic
principles are not dependent upon the
organization which bears and prostitut-
ed the name, for their vitality or their
perpetuation.
While we dislike to take issue with
the distinguished Alliance leaders
above named, and do so most reluctant
ly, we feel constrained, as an Alliance
man. to speak our honest convictions.
The time has come to serve notice on
the National Democratic party that it
cannot longer train with Wall street
and the Alliance at the same time.
Hence, we reiterate that Alliancemen
and all others who desire a change in
the financial system of this govern
ment, ought to refrain from all further
participation with that party until
there is substantial proof that it has
divorced itself from the Eastern plu-
tOcracy.
