A Wise Financial Measiire;Denounced by Hancock's Party. ,, Senator Bayard, in his New York aneech, claimed the credit of resmmption for the Denweratie party.. Uut Senator Conkling had previously shown that tha Resumption nct was framed by Republicans, and voted for only by Republicans hi the Senate, ant by very few Democrats inthe House. The National Denweratic Convention which met at St. Louis in 1878 adopted a platform in which the Resumption act was denounced 08 “a hindrance to resumption.” One of the first steps taken by the Democrats in Con: Bress In October, 1877, was the introduction of thirteen ills In one day for the repeal of the nct. One of these passed the House; it was amended In the Senate, and this amend ment, and the sturdy opposition which: the amended bil encountered from the Repud- leans In the Ilouse, prevented tts fini passage In that body. But the Democrats continued their bitter opposition to the net in Congress all that winter, The following extracts from the piatforms of the Demo cratle party, adopted in National and State Canventlons, and compiled by the New.
