His Adams county friends will do all in their power to aid him in this high ambition, both in the convention and at the polls. Judge Erwin has always been popular here. He has served us as representative, as circuit judge, and as a leader and fighter in the cause of democracy. He was a candidate for the supreme judgeship four years ago. but was defeated by Judge Monks. It is believed he will be nominated without opposition and that he will win with the rest of the ticket next year. He is a pleasing gentleman, a learned lawyer, a wise and impartial jurist and in every way worthy of this honor. Governor Marshall has complied with Mr. Bryan's request that all who aspire to the democratic presidential nomination should make clear just where they stand on the various issues now before the people and he has done so in away that will add much strength to his candidacy. He favors the abandonment of the Philippines, a tariff for revenue only, believes the government should be kept within their respective sphere, opposes the Aldrich currency bill, favors election of senators by the direct vote, the publicity of campaign funds, the income tax and opposes the repeal of the antitrust laws. He also announces that he is not a candidate in the sense that he will push his own campaign, but is receptive if the Indiana democrats want him. MONEY TO LOAN.
