Excerpt from State Platforms of the Two Dominant Political Parties in Indiana: 1850-1900

Together with the growing interest in matters historical relating to our State there is a corresponding demand for ready access to all documents relating to our State's history.

Many requests for statements of doctrine set forth in the State plat forms of the two. Dominant political parties have convinced me that the publication of these documents in a compact form will be of great service to all who are interested in the history of politics in Indiana. Therefore this publication.

In every instance except three the text from which each document is printed is that found in the State organ of the party represented. The Democratic platforms for 1856, 1866 and 1868 are copied from a Repub lican paper, as I have been unable to find copies of the Sentinel for those dates.

This publication covers fifty years, and includes all the platforms of the two parties from 1850 to 1900; but the first conventions after January 1, 1850, occurred in 1852, and provided for the first election under the new Constitution adopted in 1851.
