DEUPfiRATE STRAITS. j -Y a . ** -’ M JOHN K. GOWDY’H VILLI ANT EXKXPOSHI). Dutllcy’i method, of Corruption Reflected In an cfl’orl to Bleesl and Predjudlce In One Stroke! Here they oome again; John K. Gowdy, chairman of the Republican state central committee, is now sending out to voters over the state pieces of card board with chambers cut m it, suited in size to nickels, dimes, quarters and half dollars in silver, pasted fast to a piece of gummed paper/4|xs.s inches, in such a manner to cover both sides of the card board, when wholly pasted. Upon the reverse side of the gummed covering of the card board is the following addressed to the person receiving same: , “WK CAN CARRY INDIANA.” “We can carry a majority of the congressional districts. We can elect a majority of the legislature. We cannot draw upon importers and foreign manufacturers for funds to pay campaign expenses as is done by them. We must look to our friends at home to assist m protecting home i idustries. •WILL YOU HELP Usfby filling the enclosed card and mailing same to us? Whatever you give will be placed to your credit on our books.” (Here follows mention of the patent device for sending coin by mail, which they are employing.) Then upon the other outside page of the cover is “Amount Date Sent 189., From Street and No vj .. P. 0 ! To John K. Gowdy, Room 17 Journal Building, Indianapolis, I rid. Directions:—“After placing coins in proper chambers, seal the whole flap lightly- down and enclose in envelope sealed and addressed.” □ Read between the lines, this scheme discloses the following state of facts: First, they seek to inspire the receiver of the missive with the idea that the Republicans will sweep -the state, he, the receiver, will put “up.” Second, they seek to renew their effort to villianously poison voters with the delusion that Democrats are so un-American as to receive campaign funds from foreign countries, thereby intimating that our polioy is intentionally in favor of foreigners and against ourselves. Third, they seek to create the impression among Democrats, knowing we will learn of this scheme, that we are sadly in need of funds, and compelled to resort to this plan, when|we know that they are receiving contributions in large sums from every trust in the country, and especially from the sugar trust, which is now wholly Republican, and which hopes to get its hands back into the public treasury up to theircelbows, if Republicans are successful in putting the trust firmly hold of the public teat. The truth is, the Republican com mittee are literally swamped in money now, and while they do not need it,’whatever may come in this way the managers down at Indian--apolis will manage seme way to take care of it.” With the above stamped envelope addressed to Chrirman Gowdy, Say, Bro. Gowdy, neither silver nor salt will save you, you may as well prepare for the worst.. L I, .

rntOKT IK leg AIR. The Booster Will Surely Crow This Year. • All That la Nceeaaarjr la For Democrat* to do Their Fall Duty oa Election Day end the Bottle to Won—All the Indication* are Uniutotakeahe tor Democratic Surer** -The Casting of the Vote the One Thing Needful Now. * “All that is necessary now Is to get ont onr vote, and the rooster will crow the morning after the election.” That was the response of the Hon. Thomas Taggart, chairman of the Democratic state committee, as to what he thought of the outlook in Indiana. There was earnestness in his manner and oonviction in his tone. ~- “There is every reason to expect a Democratic victory,” lie continued. “The issues have all been favorable to us. There is every gojd reason, state and national, why people who have the good of the country at hoart should desire a continuance of Democratic mlo and no good reason why a return to Republican misrule should" be favored. Under Democratic laws the country is rapidly returning to an era of prosperity after being nearly bankrupted by Republican laws. Evideuces of reviving business activity are to be seen on every side. Then why should the people wish to reverse the order of things ? Ido not believe they desire it, nor that they will vote to bring it about. The government of the state has never been better than under Democratic rule. The people do not want that changed. “But these are .generalities. There are specific reasons aside from these why I think the Democrats will carry the state. The Democrats liave in the past few weeks become thoroughly aroused to the importance of the electida& and are taking an interest that is really remarkable for an off year. Indeed it seems in many cases fully equal to that usually shown in a presidential year. Our meetings aro largely attended, the closest attention is givon to our speakers and the demand for literature is unprecedented—really beyond our power to supply. These are the best possible indications, and do much to give me the faith I have iu the result. “Again I say, the Democrats will win if Democrats themselves do their duty aud get the vote out. That is all that is necessary. We have a majority of the votes in the state if we can get thcitf into the ballot boxes. This I believe will be done. Our organization is working well all over the state, and I believe will get out a phenomenally large vote for au off year. That being the case we (will have a big majority on the state ticket, will hold all tho congressional districts we now have and will have a good working majority iu both branches of the legislature. “I am asking Democrats now to do their duty and I will guarantee them a big victory Nov. 6.” VALUE OF A SINGLE VOTE. IT MAY CHANGE THE WHOLE COURSE OF AMERICAN HISTORY. One Tote Way Down In Switzerland Connty Made a United States Senator, Admitted Texas to the Union, Brought on the Mexican War and Made Taylor President—A Moral For This Year. The Harrison managers are now making most of their fight to capture congressional districts. This is not because they hope to get any legislation. They have no thought of that; Indeed, they have officially declared that they have no congressional programme. But by so doing they expect to carry the next presidential election* There is a strong probability that the next election of president will be by the house of representatives, in which it requires, not a majority of members but a majority of states, to In Indiana the Republicans hope to get seven representatives, giving them the state’s vote in a presidential election in the honse. For this same reason the Democracy should absolutely refuse to scratch their candidate for congress this year. A vote against a Democratic candidate for congress may not only cause the loss of the house, but the loss of the presidency in 1896. Each Democrat should bear in mind that his individual vote may control the destiny of the nation as it did in 1844. In that year one Indiana vote in Switzerland county cut a tremendous figure iu national affairs. The story is doubtless familiar to our readers, but it will bear repetition. Daniel Kelso was the Democratic candidate for state senator in Switzerland county. David Henry was the Whig candidate. The Democrats were in a minority in the county. At the term of oonrt preceding the election a young man was indicted for shooting to kill a false friend who had basely betrayed him in a love affair, aud had sought to ruin his reputation by slanderous reports. Kelso defended the young man. He secured the acquittal of his client, who, although poor in purse was rich in gratitude, and who promised that, he would spare no pains to repay the generous attorney for the valuable services he had rendered him. But when election day came around ■ the young man was bedridden with a dangerous fever. He determined, however, to go to the polls and vote for the man who had saved him from the penalty of his unlawful act. Medical protests and parental objeo- t tions were alike unavailing. It was two miles to the voting place, but the sick man could not be deterred from undertaking to reach the ~>olls, and late in the day his friends yielded to his persistent request. The bed, with the pleading patient, was placed on the wagon aud driven to the polls. Unable to leave his bed, the ticket was taken from his trembling hand and deposited iu the ballotbox before the watchful eyes of the wearied voter, and then his attendants hurried him back home. But the seal of death was on his brow and that night his spirit passed away. When the votes were counted to ascer- ..

Gun the rMijM of ui« eteotopu Mvh 1 foortfl ttof aJiso had been vmoatoua by due majority. The sacrifice th# young man trad made to emt his vote had not been in vain. Fie had given hie life for the effort, but Kelso Ihul been elected by that one vote, and a singular coincidence of importwit events started on their strange oonrae. Kelso took his seat In the senate of his state and it became the duty of that legislature to elect a Uuitod States senator. Th<* Democrats had a majority of the two branches of me legislature. Tihnan A Howard and Oliver Smith were the candidates. The latter was sure of his election, for his party was in the majority. But to surprise and indignation of tho Democrats Kelso announced his determination to never vote for Smith under any consideration. He refused to be bound by the rules of the caucus, but proclaimed his fealty to his party and asserted that he was ready to vote for any other Democrat that might be named, but for Smith — never. He succeed! si in getting another member named Hoover to stand with him. For many days and weeks the weary voting wojit on as required by law. Each report of the ballot showed: How- I ard, 74; Smith, 74, and Hannigan, 2. Tbie senate was at that time, as now, composed of 50 members and the house of 100, malting 70 the necessary number of votes to elect, but which number J neither of the anxious aspirants was t able to secure. Edward A. Hannigan was a brilliant youug man and Kelso selected him as his candidate, without his favorite’s knowledge or consent, in the beginning of the prolonged contest. Every’ effort to bring Kelso over to the Democratic caucus nominee only strengthened his stubbornness. Day after day he continued to cast his vote for Hatudgan, and stand as au immovable barrier between Smith and the coveted senatorial prize. At last he pronounced his ultimatum, and announced that tho tiresome farce ; of daily voting in the sumo manner should cyase, or he would cast his vote for the Republican and break the existing deadlock. His resolution reconvened the Democratic caucus, and Kelso arose aud delivered one of hi.-, flaming arguments in favor of his friend Hannigan, aud by his persuasive powers, as well as his stubborn opposition to Smith, succeeded in getting the 74 members to come to the support of Hannigan, who was duly elected United States senator the ensuing day. The following year a fierce controversy took place in tho senate of the United States over the admission of Texas into the union. Her admission was finally secured by one vote, and that vote was • the vote of Edward A. Hannigan of Indiana. Smith declared that he would have voted against the admission of the “Lone i Star” state if he had been chosen in the place of Hannigan, and thus 'the one vote that had been cast for Kelso among the wooded hills of Switzerland county by the dying voter led up to the admission of Texas into the Union, from which resulted the war between the i United States and Mexico and the making of many illustrious fieldls of battle, on'which the valor of American soldiers was displayed in dazzling brilliancy to' an astonished world by the splendor of their wonderful military achievements. The value and importance of a single ■ vote was never more fully displayed in the history of elections, aud never has au individual ballot been followed by" greater or grander results than are ‘ shown, to have emanated from that one 'Vote, east at the sacrifice of a human 1 life at the little voting precinct iu the remote corner of one of the smallest counties in the state. This little bit of history carries its own moral with it. It.ought to impress each Democrat with his individual responsi- , bility for the future welfare of the land when he goes to the polls. By voting against his congressman he may, by that one act, not only defeat the congressI man, bqt also drive his party from power I • in the nation for many years to come. The importance of a vote for a legis--1 lativo candidate is also readily appreI ciated as a result of this illustration. It 1 would be very easily possible for a sini gle vote for state senator this year to control the election of a United States senator two years hence, as it did in. 1844. > for the state senators chosen this year will hold over and vote for a United ; States senator in 1897. 1 REPUBLICAN GRIEF. Cau*ed t»y the General Resumption of Work In Factories. The universal return to work by factory employes is causing the Republicans grief. Since Sept. 1 the Cincinnati Commercial-Gazette and Indianapolis Journal, both stanch Republican papers, have reported the resumption of work of more than 100 big factories employing 28,642 men. This probably does not represent one-third bf the number who have seenred work under the revivifying influenoe of the new tariff law, for it does not pretend to be anything like a complete census, for it touches no small factories and takes no account of the enormous increase of employes in factories which had been iu Dartial operation and which are now ninning to their full capacity, many with day and night forces employed. * GO TO THE POLLS EARLY. ( Republicans Will Try to Close the Polls at 4 O’clock. It behooves Democrats throughout th .■ state to go to the polls early on election day. The Republicans are desperate at the prospect or defeat and are ready to resort, to the most despicable methods iu order to carry out their schemes. Tho managers of the party have sent instructions to Republican election officers in the various precincts to take advantage wherever possible of that section of the election law which permits of the closing of the polls at 4 o’clock in the afternoon in the event of the failure of a voter to appear within a certain length of time. This is one of their schemes to prevent the laboring man from exercising his right of franchise. Tariff Law Effect*.
