UTIOUL DEMOCRATIC TICKET,
FOR PRESIDENT,
Gen. W. S. Hancock,
OF PENNSYLVANIA.
FOR VICE PRESIDENT,
W. EL English,
OF INDIANA.
j FOR GOVERNOR,
Hon. Rufus E. Lester,
OF CHATHAM COUNTY.
Friday, June 25, 1880.
The Democratic Candidate for
President.
In our editorial notice yesterday of
the nomination of General Winfield
Scott Hancock by the National Demo¬
cratic Convention to the Presidency of
the United States, we briefly referred
to him as the next President of the
United States, and as a candidate who,
in the election, would divide the
soldiers’ vote iu the North and attiact
to the Democratic standard a portion
of the more respectable Republicans
who were opposed to the third term
and who regard with disfavor the
nomination of General Garfield, be¬
cause of his unsavory reputation for
honesty. Since reading the dispatches
which have come in from every por¬
tion of the Union, and reading the
opinions of our contemporaries pub¬
lished later, we feel that we have no
reason to change our opinion yesterday
so tersely expressed. Even Republi¬
cans regard General Hancock’s
nation as the very best and
tint the Democracy could have
ami that he is one of the best men in
the country. Gen. Sherman,
of the present Secretary of the
ury, is reported to have last
said: “If you will sit down and wr
the best thing that can be put in
guage about General Hancock as an
officer and gentleman, 1 will sign
without hesitation.” Judge
has also said, that “the nomination
Hancock would effectually break up
the Republican party m the South.
He might have added, and
ize that party in the North.’
though General HantoC i is worthy
tho best that can be written aud said
him, as an officer and gentleman, he is
entitled to receive credit and
tion as a respecter of the
and as the champion of civil over oiilita >
ry law. His administration of the
tary Department of Louisiana
him to every Southern m in and exalt¬
ed him m the estimation of every
of Constitutional Liberty in every
tion ot the Union
In L celebrated order, No.
Nov. 29,1S67, on taking the
of the department of Louisiana
Texas, the General said:
In war it is indispensable to
force by k <ee and oven brow and
stroy opposition to lawful
but when insurrectionary force
been overthrown and esta
ed, ami the civil authorities arc
and willing to perform their lutn
the military power should cease
lead and the civil administration
sume its natural aud iighiiul
iou. Solemnly impressed with
views, the General announces that
great principle* ot Amorical
are still the 1 iwiul inheritance ot
] <?ipie and ever .- oil 1 ' e. Ihe
et trial bv jury, t:;e h.ilea& corpus, ti
liberty of the pro—, the freedom 0
ipoeck, the natural rights of
a ud the righ s of property must b<
preserved.
Ir* reputation he has _ already ^
mn as a citizen i*
lor he is manly, brave, V geutle aud
UDqualiliediy iwuMi U history
a bo, diet is a , brilliant .... one. _r
qualifications as a statesman have
ready been foreshadowed and he will
not govern as a military satrap but as
the Chief Magistrate of a great coun¬
try, executing the laws of the land and
recogniziug the will and majesty of
his people. He has excellent judg¬
ment and will call to his council
experienced and gifted statesmen, not
mere politicians, political ring masters
and subservient tools of specula¬
tors in the wealth of the nation and
the prospects and liberties of the peo¬
ple. The election of the Democratic
candidate promises to usher iu an era
when a healihv sense of true patriot
ism will again prevail and when
ability and merit and purity of private
character will have tome weight,, ratner
than favoritism, in the selection of
public servants to occupy positions of
trust and lienor, both in State and
in the National Government.
EDITORIAL NOTES.
The New York Board of Health re¬
port 111 deaths during twenty-four
hours, of which forty-two were of chil¬
dren under 5 years of age of cholera in¬
fantum.
The Cincinnati census supervisor has
made a footing up of the work of the
enumerators. With fifteen districts not
fully reported the population of the city
is 246,153. Counting the immediate
suburbs, claim will be made of a popu¬
lation of 300,000 in round numbers.
Yakoob Kahn wants a palace iD
England, and £40,000 to live on there,
he says, will quite satisfy him for the
loss of his throne. Abdul Rahman, the
most eligible of the pretenders, writes
to say that three crores or rupees—
that is, about £300,000—will just about
fit him out nicely for a candidate for
Cabul, while Mohammed Jan is ready to
transfer his weight to the British scale,
provided he is paid an annuity with a
residence in India.
In one of his recent lectures in Lon¬
don, Dr. Erasmus Wilson exhibited the
photograph of a woman 38 years old
and five feet five inches high, whose
tresses, when she stood erect, envelop¬
ed her entire form in a golden veil,
and trailed several inches on the
ground. The longest fibres measured
six feet three and one-half inches.
Thiity inches is the mean length for
females, and three feet is considered a
very remarkable length. This instance
is exceeded, however, by two Ameri¬
can women—one whose hair measures
seven feet six inches, and another, the
wile of a druggist in Philadelphia,
whose luxuriant chevelurc is almost as
long, and so thick that when seated
upon a chair she can completely cover
herself with it.
The Democratic Platform.
The platform of the Democrats of
the United States in convention as¬
sembled declares :
First. We pledge ourselves anew to
the constitutional doctrines and tradi¬
tions of tlie Democratic party, as il¬
lustrated by the teaching and exam¬
ple of a long line of Democratic states¬
men and patriots and embodied in the
platform of the last National Conven¬
tion of the party.
Second. Opposition to centraliza
tionism and to that dangerous spirit of
encroachment which tends to eonsoli
date the povveis of all departments in
one, and thus create, whatever be the
I form of government, a real depotism ;
no sumptuary aws ; separation oi
church aud State for the good of
each, common schools fostered and pro¬
tected.
Third. Home rule ; honest money,
consisting of gold and silver aud
paper, convertible into coin on demand;
strict maintenance of public faith,
State and national; aud a tariff
revenue only.
Fourth. The subordination of
military to the civil power, and
general and thorough reform of the
civil service
Tltlh. ihe right • , to freo , , ballot ,,
a IS
the right preservative of all rights, and
must and shall be muntaiued in every
part ot the United States.
Sixth. The existing administration is
i representative bv conspiracy on Ud
! its claim of right to surround the ballot
boxes with tioops and deputy mar mils
j to intimidate and obstruct elections and
an unprecedented use of the veto to
! maintain its corrupt and despotic pow-
1 ei , insalts the people aDd impet their
■ institutions.

1 j.cctorai vote ot the St-ites the caudi
lute deteat d at the jobs was declare !

, Union than ever addre-ed the col
J sciences ot a nation of ttJBomn.
Eighth. We execrate the coarse of
tliis administration in rnatiing places in
civil service a rew.it 1 lor p ditical crime,
and demand reform by a statute which
shall make it forever impossible for a
defeated candidate to bribe his way to
the sear of a usurper by billeting vil¬
lains upon the people. [This was read
again in response to the demads, and
was received with applause ]
Ninth. The resolution of Samuel J.
Tilden not again to be a candidate
for the exalted place to which he was
elected by a majority of his country¬
men, and trom which he was excluded
by the leaders of the Kepublican par¬
ty, is received by the Democrats of the
United States with sensibility, and
they declare their confidence in his
wisdom, patriotism and integrity un
shaken hy the assaults of a common
enemy, and they further assure him
that he is followed into the retirement
he has chosen for himself by the sym¬
pathy and respect of his fellow-citizens,
who regard him as one who, by elevat¬
ing the standards of public morality,
and adorning and purifying public ser
vice, merits the lasting gratitude of
his country and his party.
Tenth. Free ships, and a living
chance tor American commerce on the
seas and on land. No discrimination
in favor of transportation lines, corpor¬
ations, or monopolies.
Eleventh. The amendment of the
Burlingame treaty. No more Chinese
immigration, except for travel, educa¬
tion and foreign commerce, and there¬
in carefully guarded.
Twelfth. Public money, public credit
for public purposes solely, and public
land for actual settlers.
Thirteenth. The Democratic party is
the friend of labor and the laboring
man, and pledges itself to protect him
alike against cormorants and the com¬
mune.
Fourteenth. We congratulate the
country upon the honesty and thrift
the Democratic Congress, which has
reduced public expenditures forty mil¬
lions a year; upon the continuation
the prosperity at home and national
honor abtoad, and above all, upon
the promise of such change in the ad¬
ministration of the government as
insure us- a genuine and lasting re¬
form in every department of the pub¬
lic service
