Register (Dem.—@os, Palmer s paner), Aprit 12, 1t {s apparent that thaauthars of the platform adopted by the Conventfon of yesterday were anxious to find words tocxpress political truths, but all will agres that thoy were not entircly successful, In mere generalitics the platform {aasuccess. The preamble, or preface, which fa fntended to express tho satisfaction of the Dem- ocratic party of the State of 1llinols in tho ve- cpmblishmont of local self-government ond the restorstion of the supromacy of law, which de- matds freedom of ladlvidual actfon, and the complete separation of Churchand Btate, and the supnort of free common achools, and which nsserts tho dnty of ail to obey tho law, Is fn all respeets worthy of commendation, an will find numédrtmponse from tho Democratic voters ol the State. The prenmble dleposed of, the platform ftaell 18 inade up of eighteen rosolutions. 'This num- ber of resolutions {s oxceasiye and unrcnsond. bie, ant the quatily of some then would have Jusllfted their omfssion, For example, the third resolution declares that the Democratic party favors the taxation of Treasury-notesandbonds of the United States, while oll know that the safety of the Federal and 8tato systems of gov- ernment ahsolutely rcrl)ulre that ‘each shall” be independent of the otliers and that the aencics and obifyations of both shall beexempt from the up- eratlonof the lazing {)ollfr of theother. The fourth resalution’is entirely {napplicable to the present stato of the law relating to the oblizativns of the Unfted States. All of them ure now payable In colu, and ought to be pafd, not only according to tho letter, but the apirit, of the contract with the publie credltors, The fitth resolution, which Jooks to the postponement of all further payments on the Fubl u debt, rests Sipon the. falge theory that tho natlonal deb raay without mischief be perpctuated. Sound polley demends that the public debt be paid as rapidly as possible, without Improperly burden- ing 1hs peopte. The objection ta the resolu- tious to which reference has buen made are, however, of small consequence compared to those that may be foslsted toon in oppo- sitlon to tho eighith resolution. In that resofution _an attemnt made 1o comtniy the Democratic varty to the pruposition that the Governwent of the United Btates has the power, under tho Constitution, to fasue aper bills to clrculate us woncy; and agatust ot Qoctrine tha State Jeplster” dstinetly ol firtnly protests. It fs not nceessary now to en- ter Into an argument to show the fallacy of the {heory of government upon which the propost- tion contatned in the reeolution rests, for it is enaugh now Lo say that it is o posed to all the traditional doctrfnes of the Lemocratie party, 1t (s ouly condid ta eay that, {( the result of Democratic success s to cstablish the power claimed for the Government of the United Htates by the resolution in question, then the success of tho party would not be a blessing, but ¢ c‘a!nmlfy. to be depreeated and averted f ble. . The State Reglater, yesterday, urged the Dem- oerats who hold the uuclent banter, and who staud on the original ground of the party, to he very putient with those who arc atrald_or aslismed to declare the whole Democeratie doc- trine_ss to the financlal question. We have urged this courso beeause o1 the fact that tho resolutfons passed by conventions, tho declara- tions of politiclans, and cven the acts of the Conzress which somo people pretend to think 1s oumipoteut, have uo ntore eflect on that ques- tlon, or on its solution, than resolutions, dec- Taratlons, or statutes have un the law of gravi- tation. The truth that gnld and silver are moncy, the truth that nothlny dse Ls monejl, and the {ruth that no power on darth can inake any- wiing clee money, conajitue the trinity of eternal verity Ju relation to monev. It makes no difference how msny people acknowledge tha existenco of this verity,—if makes no differ- enea how many disbelleve Tn its cxistence; i s not a question of majoritios,~It Is not a ques- tion o? votes,—It I8 "rAcT. It was fact beloro 1t was discovered, € ever thers was such erlod; and it wonld still be fact thouch every g\mmn belng on tha surfaco of the carth was fgnorant of ft. The Constitution of the United Lates did not originate this fact, but simply recognized It and declared that no: power fn this nation should presumc to guestion it by attempting to make muney of anythiog clsy than gold and sllver. "Fhis verity constautly asserts {tsclf, in spite of fgnarance, prefudice, heresy, or denfal, 1t was always held by the Democratic party of the natlan, and indeed its existence was not doubted by auybody until very recently, It now pushes ftself on public attention, and asserts fts right ta recognition, (n spite of oll attemyts 1o ob- scura it And it Is proper to sas, also, that Jt cats ba nelther helped nor hindered i its opera: tion by any action of any party, Tho history of the sllver dollar fllustrates Lhis eternal verity, and tho constitutionai_ doctrine which 1s bnsed upou It When tha Constitution wad formed, 1t sunde the allver dollar the atsudard and unit of value in tho natlon. [Coy, Palmer relates tho history of tho de- monetization of allver in 187d, and it remnone- tizatlon In 1878, and then proceeds:] Thy silver dolur was assalled with the utinst vehehieneo, sud thoss who supported it wers tatd {t would ruln the country to restore to the cople the use of the original standard of vuluc; rlm. 1t was repudiation of the natlonal debt to allpw the people the use of the very d which tho natlonal bonds promiss Lo pay that it would prevent the posstbllity of-w re 1o specie-payment 3 1ho peoplo should have the use of & specle cugrency, Of course this sounds very absurd now, but it {s a part of histury, and 18 1o moro nonsensical than the arzumcnls of other adhereuts to the theory that the cur- roncy of tho country ought to be the basla and subject of volitical sction. ‘Lhe Sitver L) was passed, and the Conzress conferred upon the Secretary of the Treasury the vight ta *‘tssuc” allver dollars, and lut everyboudy but Democrats aru astoulstied at the result, ‘There Is ug punle, no ruly, no repudia- tion, sud even Mr, Shermau, chiet of the tian. cial wtutosiuen of to-day, Is forced o sdmit that tho country is nearer spocle-payient than at any timo since it departed from “the coustitu. tlonal systemn.
