The article focuses on issues related to politics in New York. The democrats have done a good piece of work at Syracuse, New York. The platform has again the remarkable merit of being plain, un-adorned English. It quotes the Baltimore, Maryland planks of 1872 calling for the maintenance of the public credit and a speedy return to specie payments, ascribes the existing depression in business to the reaction from the excessive stimulus of an unhealthy, excessive, depreciated, and irredeemable currency, to enormous ill-adjusted municipal, State, and Federal taxation, and to extravagance, waste, and peculation in the administration of public affairs. The difficulties of the Republican press in dealing with both the platform and the ticket are very interesting, and are only equaled by its difficulty in dealing with Governor Samuel Tilden's pursuit of the Canal Ring. The position it has taken with regard to the latter is that all detection and prosecution of Canal thieves is mere vanity, if not wickedness, unless accompanied by the promulgation of a striking plan for the administration of the canals hereafter, and it deduces the covert immorality in the whole movement a priori from the inherent badness of Tilden's nature.
