TIIK PLATFORM.
The Union Republican party of Indiana, assem
bled iu Conrention at Indianapolis, ou the 2 2d day of
February, 1870, makes the following declaration of
principles:
We congratulate the country on the restoration of
law and order in the late rebellious States, under the
reconstruction measures adapted by the General
Government, and upon the prevalence of peace aud
return of fraternal feeling among the people of all
the States, under a Constitution securing an equali
ty of political and civil ri- Ms to all citizens, with
out distinction of race or color.
That we reverence the Constitution of the United
States as the Supreme law of the land and a wise
embodiment of the principles of free government,
and following its teachings we will adopt from time
to time such amendments a are necessary more
completely to establish justice, insure domestic
tranquility and secure the ble-siugs of liberty to our
selves and our posterity; and that we rejoice at the
ratification of the Fifteenth Amendment which for
ever secures an equality of political rights to all
men, and we extend to the colored man a helping
hand to enable him in the-race of life to improve
and elevate his condition.
That the national debt created in the defense and
preservation of the Union, however great the burden,
must bo cheerfully borne, until honorably and hon
estly extinguished in accordance with the letter and
spirit of tbo several laws authorizing the debt; and
that all attempts at repuditioo of principal or in
terest should meet (he scorn and denunciation of an
honest and patriotic people
That we demand in every department 6f the Gov
ernment, from the highest to the lowest, the strict
est economy in expenditures, consistent with the re
quirements of the public tervice; the reduction and
abolisomcnt of all extravagant fees and salaries;
the closing of all useless offices, and the dismissal
of their incumbents, and all efforts to these ends in
Congress, or elsewhere, have our unqualified ''ap
proval. That a reduction of taxation is demanded, both of
tarilTsnd internal taxes, until it reaches the lowest
amount consistent with the credit and necessities of
the Government; and that we are in favor of a tar
iff for revenue, believing that a proper adjustment
cf duties must necessarily afford all the incidental,
protection to which any interest is entitled.
That we aro in faror of a currency founded on the
national credit, as abnndant as the trade and com
inerce.of the country demand; and that e disap
prove of all laws in reference thereto which estab
lish monopoly or inequality.
That we are opposed to the donation of the public
lands, or the grant of subsidies in money to railroads
and other corporations; and that we demand the re-
servation of the public domain for the use of ac
tual settlers and educational purposes.
That we re-aflirm that "of ail who were faithful ,
in the trials of the late war, there are none entitled
to more especial honor than the brave soldiers and
seaman who endured the hardships of campaign i
and cruise, and imperiled their lives iu the services
of their country, snd the bounties and pensions pro
vided by law for those brave defenders of the nation
ire obligations never to be forgotten, and should be '
paid without cost to the recipient. Iho widows and ,
orphans of the gallant dead are the wards of the na
tion a sacred legacy bequeathed to the nation's pro
tecting care.
That we approve the general course of our Sena
tors and Republican Representatives in Congress,
and express our full and entire confidence that they
will act with wisdom and integrity in all that con
cerns the wellare of the people: aud that we tender
thanks to Senator Mot ton for his exertions in so
shaping the legislation of Congress on the reconstrue
tionof the late rebel States, as to secure the passage
of the Fifteenth Amendment.
That we endorse the administration of General
Grant as President of the United States; accept the
increased collections of revenue, the reduction cf
expenditures, and payment of a largo portion of the
public debt as a fulfillment of his premise of econ
omv, and rejoice that the victorious General of the
Union armies should, as a civil ollicer, receive that
last of the rebel States in its return to the national
family.
Inasmuch as all Republican governments depend
for their stability and perpetuity on the intelligence
and virtue of the people, it U the right and duty of
the State and National authorities to establish, fos
ter aud secure the highest moral and intellectual
development of the people-.
That taxation for county nnl other local pur
poses has become so great as to be oppressive to the
pocple; that our system of county administration
needs reform, and we demand of our re presenta
tives in the Legislature such changes in the stat
utes of the State as will protect the people from ex
travagant tax levies by local authorities; and a an
aid to this needed reform we favor a reduction of
the fi.es of county officers to a standard which will
urnish a fair and reasonable compensation for the
ervices rendered, and that no officer should be fa
vored with salary, fees or perquisites beyond such
fair and reasonable compensation.
That the canal stocks issued, under the legisla
tion of 1SIG and 1847, commonly called the 'Uutler
Bill,' were, by tae terrrs of the contract, charged
exclusively upon the Wabash and Erie Canal, its
revenues and lands, and the faith of the State never
having been directly or indirectly pledged for the
payment or redemption thereof, said canal stocks
therefore constitute no part of the outstanding
debts or liabilities of the State. That the Constitu
tion of the State ought to be amended at the earli
est practicable period, so as to prohibit the taking
effect of any law or acts of the General Assembly
proposing t recognize or create any liability of the
Stata for the Slid canal stocks, or any part thereof,
nutil such proposition shall have been submitted to
a direct vote ot the people of the State and approved
by them.
'That we heartily endorse the administration of
our State affairs by Governor Baker, and his associ
ate State officers, and especially congratulate the
people that the time is so near when the State debt
will be entirely liquidated.
Col. Oyler, of Johnson county, offered the follow
ing: Resolved, Tint the State Central Committee are
hereby instructed to appoint a Treasurer, whose
duty it shall be to receive and account for all funds
raised or received for the use of said committee
during the ensuing campaign. Said funds to be dis
bursed on the order of said committee. It shall al
so be the duty of the said State Central Committee,
to appoint an auditing committee to examine the
acooui'tsof said Treasurer.

Indianapolis - Agricultural, - Me-

' Association.
Board ok Trade Room, (
' Indianapolis, April 27, '70. )
Editor Indianapolis State Sentikel.
Dear Sir : You aro doubtless aware
of the formation of the above named
joint fctock association, having for its
object the improvement of agricultural,
the ruethsmc arts, stock growing, and
a better development of the natural re
sources of Indiana, bul more particular
ly to , show strangers, who are likely to
visit us on such occasions, our beauti
ful city, its railroad and manufacturing
advantages. As a public journalist and
benefactor looking to the advancement
of our city and State I hope we may
all work together for the geueral eoo.l,
and that to this end, this article, or sub
sequent ones touching the same subject,
may not be regarded as intrusions upon
3our valuable columns.
This is a joint stock company, inde
pendent of State or municipal appropri
ations, a private enterprise, not in op
position to an' organization, public or
private, but solely for the purpose stat
ed, composed of over one hundred as
good business men as can be found in
any State. Among them I find the fol
lowing :
Judge E B Martidale, John Fishback,
L W Hasselman, Sinker & Davis, Hon.
T B McCarty, John C New, Thomas D
Kingan, William Mansur, A S Fletcher,
Jr., J II Vajcn & Co., McCord & Wheat

With such n:en as stockholders and
directors, the community must conclude
that the object of the Association is
purely for the purpose staled. And
with a view to more fully carry out the
designs of the Association, they have
offered the most liberal premiums ever
presented at any fair in the Northwest,
in order to reward strangers from
abroad by offering them such induce
ments as will bring them to Indianapolis
that they may see our great central na
tural advantages.
Ind'ana coal is now attracting the
attention of the world for smelting and
..other manufacturing purposes. We
have an abundant suppljv of valuable
ore, stone, and timber, indeed, all the
requisites necessary for inland manufac
turing and commerce Our valuable
timber is being ruthlessly destroj'ed ;
'Woodman fparc that tree," is not re
garded, and our "western Indiana belt
of timber" is fading from view like the
dew before the noonday sun." Thou
sands of acres are anually cleared of
such timber as our eastern Yankee
friends choose to select ( and they are
quite particular), cutting the black wal
nut cherry, ash, etc., car loads of which
by the dozen leave cur city daily for
Boston, where it is manufactured, and
fully the original cost returned to us,
sold to our citizen, they paying the
manufacturer, and the freight both ways
Wc have uo complaint to make si3 against
the Yankees, else we might "throw
stones into our own window. They
have an eye to business, but it is no
aid in securing homo manufactures,
by which means we may be enabled to
consume our raw material, feed the
workmen, and benefit our city and
State, that this organization has been
formed.
Indiana's geographical locality is
most peculiar; bounded on the south by
the Ohio river, and on the north by Lake
Michigan is in fact the gateS between
the East and West, traversed by every
important East and West railroad line
perhaps fully nine-tenths of all travel
from East to West, and West to East
again, passing across the State, only
thinking of "Hoosier." The courage
and undaunted vigor of Indiana soldiers
during the war did much to introduce
Indiana to the people of the whole
Union; yet Indiana is less favorably
know than manyStates not half so old.
The old idea that an Eastern man em
igrating to Indiana would be required to
reside here a year and steal a hog before
be could vote, is being raj idly effaced.
It is to correct erroneous impressions of
whatever character, that lends impo-t-ance
to our organization.
But as a crowning sheaf, thanks to
General T. A. Morris and seconds, we
are to day the greatest railroad centre
in the world, affording transportation by
rail to nearly every county in the State,
connecting with ever' important railroad
line, north south, east and west in the
Union.
The railroad facilities, and the liber
ality of our young, vigorous and reliable
organization, we trust will insure to us
the best and most beneficial exhibition
of all the 'industrial arts' ever held in
the Nortwest.
The fair will be held in Camp Morton
commencing Monday, Septe 5th, 1870,
the State Board of Agriculture,
having kindly granted the use of their
grounds from the 1st to the 10th of Sep
tember, for the purpose; hence we are
at trifling expense. No large salaries to
pay, no mileage and per diem accounts,
no committees to pay, or other extrava
gant expenses incident to public corpo
rations. Our premium list foots up over
fifteen thousand dollars, and its arrange
ment is new, riot an old stereotyped
edition, but believed to be appropriately
arranged in accordance with the relative
importance of the various classes. The
affairs of the association will be manag
ed with the strictest economy consistent
with the kind treatment that will be ex
tended to all exhibitors who may honor
the association with their presence.
Ample arrangements will be secured for
half fare railroad rates over the various
roads entering Indianapolis and their
connecting lines, the particulars of
whica will be set forth in posters.

Sometime ago we took occasion to no
tice the fact that our old triend, J. W.
Burson, Esq., was a candidate for the
Stale Senate, from the counties of Mad
ison and Delaware, and to express our
satisfaction that so good a man should
be proposed tD represent the people of
those counties, in that body. We notice
that an aspirant for that position, one
Col. Samuel Orr, has put himself for
ward and is fiskinj the Republicans to
send him to the capital to represent
them. Now, as an outsider, we would
hot suffer ourself to interfere in making
a selection of a candidate for that Dis
trict; yet, judging from the past record
cf Col. Orr, we opine that his claims to
the support of any real, live, genuine Re
publican therein has made him as much
ofran outsider and alien, as wo might be
regarded, and hence Our position is at
least as tenible as his, and our right to
interfere is as valid as hi3 is to ask Re
publicans for their votes. Such bting
the case, wc feel no hesitancy in saying
our say about this specimen of Orr, that
looks to us like bogus. We are a be
liever in the doctrine as taught by the
professors of true christian principles,
that the "vilest sinner may return"' and
become as good as weak humanity will
permit one to arrive at perfection in this
life ; but we acknowledge that we can
not and do not have the same confidence
in tho reformation of a political sinner
particularly one who, when the South
ern Democratic Slave Holders' Rebelli
on first broke out, took an active part
like Col. Orr did, in giving "aid and
comfort to the enemy" under the cover
of sustaining the constitution. All
White Water or" "the waters of Lethe,"
either, cannot wash away this stain.
Even services in tho army, afterwards,
Cannot atone for this political sin. The
treason of an Arnold could tot be wiped
out. The only care for betrayal and
unfaithfulness, was practiced by Judas,
and we think Col. Orr might profiit
by his example, instead of asking the
Republican Party, the only party that
6tood firmly by the country aad the old
flag to endorse him by giving him a
nomination to the State Senate !
That we may not be accused of mis
representing the position occupied by
Col. Orr, we copy the following resolu
tions which were written out and offered
by him at a Democratic meeting held in
1861, at Selma, Indiana :
"Selma, December 5, 1861. At a
meeting of the Democratic Union Asso
ciation, convened at Wilson's Hall, in
Selma, Delaware County, Indiana, the
following preamble and Resolutions were
unanimously adopted. Whereas, our
country is now involved in civil war and
in difficulty unprecedented, and whereas
these difficulties have been fomented by
the secessionists of the South and the
abolitionists of the North.
1st, Resolved, That we regard the
constitutions as the fundamental law of
the land, no less binding in war than in
peace, and, as law abiding citizens, will
give our support to all laws passed in
accordance therewith.
2d, Resolved, That we yield to none in
our attachment to the constitution with
all its checks and balances and that we
will adhere to it in letter and in spirit.
3d, Resolved, That we are in favor of
the Union as it was formed by our lath
ers and of giving to every section of our
country the rights guaranteed by the
constitution as interpreted by Washing
ton, Jefferson, Madison, Monroe and the
Supreme Court.
4ih, Resolved, That the doctrines in
culcated by the Abolition party of the
Nofth of no more union with slave
holders no more slave States no more
slave territory that we can no longer
live together part slave and part free
but must all become one or the other
are principles as much subversive of
the true principles of the constitution as
disunion itself. '
Other resolutions, completing the se
ries, were added to those offered by the
Col. Resolving that the Democratic
party had always stood by the constitu
tion that it disapproved of freeing and
arming the negroes pronoucing both to
be unconstitutional and inhuman," etc.
This is sufficient, we think, to place the
seal of condemnation on this aspirant
for a prominent position on a Republi
can ticket, and who, if he is to be believ
ed, would not fail to deceive the party
he asks to assist him; for he avers that
he had "never made a speech or cast a
vote, that, under similar circumstances,
he would not do again." We think the
Republicans of the District, have more
sense than to trust him, and will trium
phantly nominate for their standard
bearer, Hon. John W. Bdrson, who has
always been a consistent Republican is
an honest and capable man, and whose
eleclion would redound to the credit of
the entire district, as well as to the houor
of the glorious party that carried our
country safely through the rebellion and
saved the life of the nation.

REV. WM. II. COODE.- -
In the "Telegram" of Friday last, this veteran of
the Cross writes a frothy communication td that
paper in which he heaps upon it . the most fulsome
praise for its course in noticing the action of tba
North Indiana Conference on the Kinnan' case, and
who siezes the opportunity to hurl his anathemas
against the Indianapolis Journal, Sentinel and Even'
ing News, and(with the above exception) the press
of our city. The Palladium's share of clerical thun
der is as follows:
"The statements in the Palladium of the 19th are
fUe and scurrilous, and its comments are imperti
nent. That sheet, so ready heretofore to catch op a
slan lerous report against a Methodist Minister, and
so slow to admit to its colums a clear refutation,
thereby attempting to fasten upon the church the
stigma of harboring and screening bad men in her
ministry, now that a real case comes up for the ac
tioi of the conference, in the exercise ol proper dis
cipline, rudely rushes to the rescue; deals out exca
thedra denunciations and makes a violent effort to
distort and misrepresent its proceedings. The an
"mi of this sheet id sufficiently plain."
The "statements" alluded to, were received from a
friend of Mr. K's., and were no doubt toned to suit
bis feelings, and, from his stand -point, be gave them
to us as truthful and reliable. It was the firit infor
mation we had of the conference, from one who was
present. Since then, however, his statements were
corroborated not only by others w ho were present,
particularly in regard to the intemperate speech of
the Rev. Wm, II. Goode, but the different reporters
of the Indianapolis papers say about the same thing
about it. In justice to the conference, in our paper, of
the 26tb, we published an article from the Kokonio
Tribune," giving the other side justifying that
body in the course it had taken in disposing of the
case. Probably this is the" Tery lame article that
the Rev.Wm. II. Goode desires."tbat ome paper" in
our city, ' shall hare th manliness and- impartiality
to place in its columns"? We" reiterate the opinion
expressed by us on the 26th, that we cannot see how
Mr. Kinnan or his liiends could hare expected any
other result than a failure to try his case, from the
fact of his resignation both as minister and member
of the church. Whilst re-expressing this opinion'
we beg permission, in all modesty, to express anotb
er that looks to us as especially relevant to the case;
which, if not ecclesiastically in order, is, we think
parliamentary. It is this: The presiding officer of
the conference should, the moment the case was
sought to be'inlroduced, have decided that it could
not be enter tained. If an appeal had then been ta
ken from his decision, the conference no doubt would
have sustained him, and no injustice would have
been done to Mr. K. But instead of this course, the
case was permitted to enter in resolutions were of
fered by the Rev.Wm. II. Goode, and entertained, and,
under cover of explaining their'import,Ae took occa
sion and was permitted to enter into details, and re
iterate tho slanders and vituperation' against Mr.
Kinnan denouncing him as not only unfit to be as
sociated with in the ministry, but as an interloper,
etc., and then the conference consummated .the in
consistency to itself and iojus'tice to Mr.' K., by
trying his case without a hearing and deciding it by
voting for a propos:tion that thj Rev. Wm. II. Goode
acknowledges conference had nothing to do with!
by a vote of 71 to 7 "an" almost unprecedented
majority," boastingly adds tjis Reverend censor of
the press, which he takes occasion to denounce as
"venal" "subsidized"'!
We had almost 'concluded that the picture drawn
of the Reverend gentleman's violence in his speech
in conference had been somewhat overdone by our
informant, until we read his communication in the
Telegram, from which we take the above extract.
It appears to us that he lacks the qual ifications cf a
Bishop, (he no doubt is an aspirant to that office ?)
being self-willed, soon angry, a striker, and neither
just or temperate in his language the poison of asps
is under his lips, and his mouth is full of cursing
and bitterness! It may not avail for a sinner like
ourself to'pray for a reformation in thii Goode man's
manners and conduct ; but he shall hare it with all
the fervency of soul we are capable of, and we know
he needs not only our feeble efforts, but we trust
every christian man in the land my off-?r up prayers
n his behalf, that he may be more truthful in state
ments ha may hereafter make,than he has been regard
ing the course he alleges was pursued by the Pallad
ium towards a Metbcdist Minister. We might follow
the example he has set and denounce that which he
utters about our paper as "false and scurrilous, and
hie comments as impertinent but we content ourself
with charitably supposing that he was merely mis
taken in the name of the paper that criught "up a
slanderous report against a Methodist Minister," etc.
Cur course towards Methodist Ministers and all
other Ministers of -the Gospel, has always been the
reverse a3 charged by the Rev. Wra.H; Goode. The
Palladium has uniformly defended them when assail
ed and slandered, and its columns have always been
freely given lor their use, and if he knows any case
to the contrary, we call upon him to point it out ;
and if he fails to do this and finds he has been mis
taken, we ask him to say so and thus counteract the
injustice he has done our paper and us.
The Aristocrat. .The Indianapolis
Sentinel is on our side in the aristo
crat business, but it is the bull goring
our ox this time. Tae Indianapolis or
gan charges Judge Jerry Wilson, the
Republican candidate for Congress in
the Fourth District, with ' aristocartic
tendencies. He is, says the Sentinel,
in his manners and spirit, as well as
in his habits aristocratic, as he is self
ish and penurious. Such a . man can
never represent common people."
The Sentiuel's premises arc incorrect
and of course its conclusions aro not
correct. Judge Wilson is not so aristo
cratic as to refuse the votes and the
support of the poorest class of citizens
the colored men. lie would sit on
the curbstone of a street, in his shirt
sleeves, if the weather was warm like
a plebeian candidate for Mayor, - with
Bob James and Fogs Austin without
feeling that he degraded , himself a par
ticle. Judge Wiieop is a democrat,
n the broadest signification of the word
in favor of a government by the whole
people; as Mr. Lincoln said "a govern
ment of the people." No min can be an
aristocrat who advocates impartial suf
frage; that all men are created equal,
and all men have a right to vote. We
differ with the Sentinel, on the point of
fact. We differ with the Democratic
organ in this city cn principle the as
sociation of Mayor Rodger?, or of any
other candidate, with the Poge Austins
aud Bob Jameses of the people is not
a crime; nor is aid rendered to the John
Hollises, in bailing out a skiff, or any
other honest labor, discreditable. Every
man in this Republic, if he be honest
and works for his bread, is a "gentle
man." Madison Courier.

PRE-EMPTION :
IHAVE compiled a full, concise and complete
statement, plainly printed, for the information
of persons intending to take up a Homestead or Pre
Emption in this portion of the West, embracing
Iowa, Dakota and Nebraska and other sections. It
explains how to proceed to secure lou acres ot Kicn
Farming Land for Nothing, six months before you
leave your borne, in the most healthful climate. In
short it contains just such instructions as are need
ed by those intending to make a Home an! Fortune
in the Free Lands ot the West I will fend one of
these printed Guiaes to any person sending me 25
cents. The information alone, which it gives, is
worth $5 to anybody. Men who came here two and
three years ago, and took a farm, are to-day inde
pendent. To You no Men.
This country is being crossed with numerous Rail
roads from every direction to Sioux City, Iowa. Six
Railroads will be made to this city within one year.One
is already in operation connecting us with Chicago
and the U. P." Railroad and two more will be com
pleted before spring, connecting us with Dubuque
mi McGree-or. direct. Three more will be complet
ed within a year, connecting us direct with St. Paul,
Minn., Yankton, Dakota, and (jolumbus, iNeorasKa,
on the U. P. Railroad. The Missouri River givea us
the Mountain trade. Thus it will be seen that no
section of country offers such unprecedented advan
tages for business, speculation and making a fortune.
For the country is being populated, and towns and
cities are being built, and fortunes mde alcaost be
yond belief. Every man who takes a homestead
now will have a railroad market at his own door.
And any enterprising young man with a small capi
tal can establish himself in a permanent and paying
business, if he selects the right location and right
branch of trade. Eighteen years residence in the
western country, and a largo portion of the time
employed as a Mercantile Agent in this country, has
made me familiar with all the branches of business
and the best locations in this country. For one
dollar remitted to mo I will give truthful and definite
answers to all questions on this subject desired by
such persons. Tell them tho best place to locate,
and what business is overcrowded and what branch
is neglected. Address, DAiNlfcij MUti,
