Cincinnati Platform
(Column 1)

Summary: Editorial condemns the Democratic Party's 1856 platform at the Cincinnati convention, as protective of slavery.

Hot and Cold
(Column 2)

Summary: Editorial suggests the state Democrats and the Valley Spirit are two-faced in supporting a national party committed to free trade while advocating protectionism in their home state.

Excerpt: We would like to know which is genuine democracy; the Free Trade dogma of the Cincinnati resolve, or the protection sentiment of the Reading Convention. We would like to know whether the faithful, in this part of the State, endorse Foster's antiLecomptonism--by accepting him as their candidate, without his recantation--or if they intend to stab him in the dark, as the Buchananites did Douglas in Illinois.
