ton OF that class Of money.
I'VE also most heartily indorse Tn,
action OF the Democratic Congress in re
pealing the odious election law.
1--WE are in favor of a constitutions
amendment providing for the election o
United States Senators by the direct
vote of the people we are also in favor
OF such constitutional and other changes
as may be necessary in order that Con.
gress may assemble as soon after its cleo
ton as is practicable, and to the end that
the will of the people as expressed at the
polls may receive prompt and full legis-
lative expression.
1--WE believe and declare that the pol
icy and principles of what is called the
American Protective Association are
illiberal, unwise, unpatriotic, undemo-
C attic and un-American. In the spirit
OF that religious freedom which charac-
terizes our Constitution and laws, and
the spirit of that wise constitution and
generous craftsmanship which seeks to
afford citizenship we call upon every
man to do battle against that organiza-
ton.
"The Democratic party of Indiana is.
as it has always been, the friend of the
laboring man, of whom its membership
is largely composed. 1t is in heavy SYM
pathy with every lawful effort to secure
for those who earn their livelihood by
their daily toll, for protection within
their rights as American citizens to bet
ter the condition of their lives; to secure
for them full and fair compensation for
their labor and afford them every posi- |
BILE opportunity for moral, social and
material advancement.
owe condemn the efforts that have
been made, whether by the professed
friends or the avowed enemies of wage
workers to identify their cause with the
Infamous conspiracy OF lawlessness and
anarchy, which threaten the very foun-
dations of order and civilizations.
"We are opposed to every manifesto
ton of violence and mob spirit and stand
squarely for the maintenance of law un-
der all circumstances and upon all occa-
siOns.
1--WE favor the enactment and enforce
nent OF such laws regulating immigra-
ion from other countries as shall ex-
dude the pauper and vicious classes who
ire untitled to become American citizens |
md whose presence in this country will
urnish standing menace to the pros {
,erity of our land. {
1--WE denOunce the cowardly attempt 6
Il the Republican party to escape the |
responsibility for the existing depression
# the business affairs of our country. c
his condition is the natural, illogical /
nd irrevocable result of the infamous /
ystem of texation known as "McKin- 4
syism," combined with the vicious t
nancial legislation and prohigate ex- |,
ravagance of the Republican party. "
ave favor the establishment of trib- I,
nal OF arbitration, in which there may ii
g secured peaceful settlement of all Il
lsputes between employers and en- a
Icy s. 81
The Democratic party is, as it has ever p
zen, opposed to all sumptuary laws as W
'ntrary to the principles OF free govern Il

1--WE indorse the repeal of the pur.

1--WE reaflrm our belieAthat both gold Sc
ID silver should be used as the standard c,
money OF the country, and that both It'll

ave believe it absolutely necessary to
3 welfare and prosperity OF the great u
oducing masses that silver should be
stored to the place it occupied in the
rrency systems of the world quarter 70,
a century ago, and we hail with de- ma

We pledge our hearty effort to secure ha
} adoption OF every measure for the rec

We declare that the present national tri'
