The executive aamittee of the National Demuuatm party was in steaioa hare Monday and the following call for a national itioat at Indiapoln Sept 8: TO THE DniOCBATS OF TBI UNITED States: The Democratic party is the only existlag political orgaattstlnn with a history extending back to the birth of the republic Party after party has attempted its overthrow. Some have achieved tem porary triumphs. WItheach triumph was heard the prophecy that the Democratic party would rarely die. It has survived all defeats. By virtue of its indestructo ble principles it has witnessed the birth and death of every rival save one, and this, its present great antagonist, with a history of no more than 40 years, had no part in laying the foundations of consti tutional popular government. For more than a century, men of nigh principle, noble ambitions, unselfish and patriotic alms, have adhered to the Doraocratlc party with a constancy of devotion un paralleUed in the history of politics. For more than a century through good and evil report in times of prosperity and days of adversity it has kept its faith. "Without variableness or shadow of turning," it has held fast to the funds amenta! principles of free government fetmulstos by its founders and subse .neatly enforced by its great leaders from Jefferson to Cleveland. For more than a century no nsaa was ever la doubt as to what constituted Democracy. He who proclaimed himself a Democrat, defined his principles. He stood for fredom of speech, freedom of conscience, freedom of trade and freedom of contract all of which are implied by tho century-old battle cry of the Democratic party. "Individual lib erty." As a consequence, every Democrat Cafoundly disbelieved in the ability of vernment through paternal legislation or supervision, to increase the happiness of the nation. He was opposed to all at tempts to conjure comfort into the homes of its citizens or wealth into their pockets, Far m Stasia Carraaejr. He believed that it is tho function of government to provide the people with an honest and stable medium of ex change, thus enabling them to trans act their business safely and conveniently in every mart and market of the world. He reprobated every attempt to supply to money by means of legislation that value which it can possess only by reason of those qualities that render, it acceptable to the world when unsupported by legis lative flat. He believed in the greatest measure of freedom of trade and industry essapatible with the necessity to obtain by constitutional means an adequate revenue for the support of the government He believed in a simple, economical, honest and eficient administration of the affairs of the nation. To the end that the prime object of government, the liberty of the people, should be preserved with the least possthle resulting burden and the greatest possible certainty. The delegates to the convention at Chi cago were authorized and had the power to proclaim a platform embodying their .Views of the true solution of the particu lar problem! of the government now agi tating the nation, but upon tho condition that such platform should be consistent with the cardinal principles held by the arty tarougnout its existence. Tnese fdaciples constitute the essential element of the party's life. They distinguish it from all other political organisations. If. they are abandoned, the party ceases to exist. It was, therefore, not within the power of any majority of the delegates as sembled at Chicago to bind the Democrats of the Unltod.States to a platform Jncoa latent with the party principles or to any action that should result in their surren der. In violation of the trust committed to them, a majority of the delegates as BBauslcfl In the convention, Ignoring tha rights of tbs minority, unseated regularly elected delegates to make places for others in sympathy with themselves. Fralaa FraaMsat Cleveland. They proclaimed a sectional combina tion of the south and west against the Borth and east They impeached the honesty and patriotism or President Cleveland, who. under exceptional em baiaasments produced by past errors of legislation, has heroically maintained the honor and integrity of the republic. Against the ptotest of 'one-third of the- delegatei they promulgated, a platform at variance with the essential principles of the Democratic party. This platform is in its policies dangerous to the welfare and life of free government. Itismis ehlsvous in its tendencies. But even more threatening and mischievous was the spirit of the convention that adopted it a spirit manifested not alone by its aatrmative action, but as well by Its reck less rejection of every proposition tending to temper the declarations of the conven tion with conservatism and justice. The platform proposes to degrade the coin of the United States by means of the free, unlimited and independent coinage of silver by our government and by exer cise of the power of the nation to compel the acceptance of depreciated coins at their nominal value, thereby working an injus tice to creditors, defrauding the laborer of a large part of his earnings and savings, tohbtng pensioned soldiers of part of their pensions, contracting the currency by the expulsion of gold coin from circulation, injuring, if not destroying, domestic and foreign commerce. With what seems to be a deliberate at tempt to mislead the people. It asserts that by the coinage act of 1873 the United States abandoned the use of silver as money and that gold has appreciated and commodities have fallen in prices solely by reason of this legislation. It ignores the fact that the prices of commodities have fallen because of the enlarged use of labor saving machinery, Increased production and resulting competition. It suppresses the fact that a potent reason for the de aline in the price of silver has been the discovery of new and cheaply worked ntlnto resulting in an enormous increase ia its production. Instead of recognizing these facts it appeals to the prejudice of It demands the free coinage of silver at the arbitrary and fictitious ratio of 16 to 1, although the ratio established in the world's market is S3 to 1, and although aerisaosaor reason warrants belief that the commercial ratio be- the two metals can be reduced by the action of this government to any ratio ap preachlag or approximating it. It assails the Independence of the judi ciary by a covert threat to reorganize the courts whenever their decisions coatrsr vene the decrees of the party caucus. It seeks to allure oSceseekers and spoilsmen to its support by attacking the existing civil laws, which good men of all parties have labored so long to establish and to extend to all oepartraents of the public service. The Chicago convention having thus departed from the recognised Democratic faith aaw. promulgated doctrines new and strange toths Dsnsecracj, the Democrats are absolved from obligation to support ite program. More than this, as the doc- trlnes announced are destroctlve of na tional honor and private obligation and to crease sectional and class distlno- d engender discord and strife the neonle. all arood citlzaaa of the tepabUe are bound to repudiate them and rt every lawful means to insure defeat the candidates that represent those felto doctrines.

New York, Aug. 18. Health Oflcer Alvan H. Doty of this city has retamod from Havana, Cuba. He spent only two days in Havana, because he found on arrival that it would be impossible for him to reach either Santiago or Qea f uegos where he ssysiihere are alarm iug outbreaks of snsmipoz. He found that there was a great deal of yellow fever and smallpox ia Havana and the surrounding country. The sanitary conditions are terrjhle, the whole city's sewerage, he sjs, is emptied into the bay and the tide is not sufficient to carry it to sea. Consequently the bay is, bo says, a. onstant breeder of yellow fever, es pecially around the Rigna docks and military hospital. There were 800 cases of yellow fever and 100 deaths reported from the military hospital during the two weeks previous to Dr. Doty's visit. , He is confident that the condition of the j city of Havana is much worse than in ordinary summers as the presence of unaccltmated soldiers has a very bad effect.

The McKinley Uapa.mwWilaxhi, HUHLTON IS ) I Aw at Hamilton. Mas. a , m &. " . ?; .. PA1ALTTI0 8H00r ftlUItJ WUHOL Haioltov, 18.-Miss Abigail Dodge Hamilton) the last night at her Bountiful hoamev from the effects of a naralytae shock. Mmi Dodge was strkksn while at breakfast and im mediately because nnconactaas. Modi eal aid was at 'once summoned and Miss Dodge ressoved to her bed, but while every possible means was adopted to restore her she never regained con sciousness. Miss Dodge had a similar hock while in Washington about a year ago. Must Augucta Dodge and other relatives were vt i be bedside when the end came. Too u:u h workiu mail- ing bar lsst book, "The Valley of Death," daring tho hot weather broke her strength. Miss Mary Abigail Dodge, writer, bi ographer and controversialist, widely known under the pen name of Gail Hamilton, was a native of tho town in which she died, having beiug born in 1890. At the age of 10 years she went to. Dr. Clark's private school in Cam bridge. She was graduated from Ipswich academy at the age of 20. In 1851 she went to Hartford aa assistant in the Hartford hign school. She-refused to take the customary examina tion, bat was given the position with ont doing so. She was abo instructor I ia physical axience in this school for sev , oral years and was subsequently gov- erness in the family of Dr. Gamaliel . Bailey of Washington, D. C, the editor of The National Era, to which paper she became a contributor. In 1X65-7 she was one of the editors of "Our Young Folks," n .magazine for children published in Boston. From 1870 until a little over a year ago she had lived most of the time with her cousin, Mrs. Jsmes G. Blaine in Wash ington. In course of this daily contact with the Blaine family Miss Dodge was led into a very close friendship with Mr. I Blaine, and at the death of the latter . she became his literary executor, being in possession of all his papers and docu- j ments of value to her as his authorized biographer. Bl-fcaaas HlaSareal Bar Wark. She was engaged on this work, as frequently as her health would .permit, from the time of his death to her illness last year and it is thought her untiring devotion to the work was instrumental in bringing about that prostration. Since the ill ness, which came on so suddenly in the Blaine mansion in Washington, Miss Dodge has lived very quietly at her old home in Hamilton, Mass. Her strength had never rallied after that illness, so that she felt able to resume active work and she was for weeks unable to see even intimate friends, bnt during that time she has been able to be driven about the town and to entertain in her old delightful manner the friends who called upon her. Her literary work daring this time has been fragmentary, done ' by dictation as a diversion, or when some current event has especially attracted her interest Gail Hamilton was a frequent contributor to promi nent magazines and her published works, written in a witty and aggres sive style, consist largely of her selec tions from her contributions. Her books include: . . . , ". "Country Living and Country Think ing," 'Gala-Days," "New Atmosphere and Stumbling Blocks," "Skirmishes aud Sketches," "Red Letter Days in Appletborpe and Summer Rest," "Wool Gathering," "Woman's Wrongs," "A Counter Irritant," "Battle of the Books," "Woman's Worth and Worth uness," "Little Folk life," "Child World." In 1887 she wrote a series of letters on civil service reform for a New York paper. Letters on a wide range of public questions written for the Boston Journal, were widely copied through out the United States. Miss Dodge's one novel, "First Love Is Best," had not the success which attended some of her other works. During recent years she engaged in political writing and many famous review articles and politi cal "interviews" have been accredited, to her which have aroused much warm discussion and have exerted more or less influence upon national politics.

The war de partment has received dispatches from General Wheaton, commanding the de partment of Colorado, detailing the movements of troops in pursuit of the Indian raiders from Mexico. It is be lieved the Indians having gone north and such a disposition of troops has been made, it is believed, as will inter cept them if they attempt to cross into Mexico. The Indians are on foot and are pursued by mounted troops. It is stated in the dispatch that the Mexican authorities will establish a garrison at Negates for the purpose of preventing further Indian raids. Iawa IJkeral sVaaaae la Seaalaa.
