He gave cred--1 it to the other men of his administration for assisting him ami named ' Ellingham, O’Brien, Greathouse. Mel bourne, Honan and the others. He pleased the several hundred who 1 heard him and enthused them with the idea of changing conditions so that the people can live and be happy. In introducing him John T. Kelly, president of the Jefferson club said: “Ladies and Gentlemen: —A tew years ago easily within the memory of every voter, Indiana was out of debt, with plenty of money in the state treasury to meet all expenses ' of tile state, and your taxes were less than one-third of what they are now, and the state board of tax com missioners were not compelled to force a ficticious valuation upon your property in order to raise money sufficient to meet the running expenses of the state, and in explanation tell you that the reason your taxes are high is because you have suddenly become immensely rich. Those were in good Democratic times when the man that 1 am about to introduce to you was governor of toe state of Indiana. I now have the honor as well as the privilege and pleasure of presenting to you the Honorable Samuel M. Ralston, who will talk to you from a Democratic standpoint.” Mr. Ralston went from here to IWucton, Mr. E. A.
