Gkeen Smith disgusted democrats as well as republicans with his braggadocio last evening. His speech was a mess of eulogy for Smith. Smith should defend his school fund grab as he goes along. His statements about the state debt were untrue as his grammar was bad. Indiana has nothing to be proud of in her present attormy general.

Smith last night told the poor workingman how to buy cheap woolens but failed to tell the workingmen under the existing democratic (listless, where they could get the li^.oO with which to buy blankets.

A LIE NAILED. In his speech lust night Green Smith suiii that the state debt was of republican origin. That his statement was false to its core is proved by the following taken from the records of Indiana and expounded by Hon. John M. Butler at Lafayette last week in his great

speech:

The statement is made by democratic

speakers—some of them democratic oltKe-holders of high rank, who ought to know better, and probably do know better—that the state fiebt of Indiana is a republican debt, created by the republican party while in control of the stale government. That statement is untrue. Its falsity is easily proved by

the official records of the state. I r mi January, ls-t4, to January,

Indiana was ruled by tiie democratic paity. Our governors during those sixteen years were Whitcomb, Wright. Willard and Hammond. The state debt incurred during those sixteen years was created wholly by the democratic party. The state debt in January, IStit. when Oov. llenrv S. Lane took possession of

Smith, who represents the plug ugly stamp of humanity, stood up and ranted, showing himself to be the bully he has tiie reputation of having been in the legislature, and exploiting himself at the ex pense of an audience made up principally of women and boys. Smith told how Smith had worked for the tax law, and Smith had defied man and the devil and bow Smith had killed a bear! Smith didn’t say a word about how Smith was engaged iu grabbing the school fund of the state, how he has taken thousands of dollars from the peo' pie in that twelve per cent, swipe

this morning for a list of the visit-

A letter to a gentleman in this city from a gentleman who ocea sionally makes his home here, has some interesting facts about the condition of business in Chicago, and the results of the coming election. The Banner Times is permitted to quote from the letter as follows: “General business is still much depressed here, but shuns improvement over conditions of last spring. The improvement ap pears to be wholly in anticipation of a republican “landslide” in November. Should there be any disappointment in that direction I am satisfied that we will see a rep etitlon of the demoralization of last year. There is no question but that many manufacturing concerns have resumed with their only hope of success based upon the belief that the democracy will he <le prived of the power to do fuithe. damage, and that lor the future the industries of the country will have an opportunity to try to exist even under present conditions, but 1 am satisfied that a democratic victory in November, or even a moderate republican success only, will create a worse condition of affairs than we have yet seen. I find ibis to be the opinion of business men generally and as a eonsequence there is intense interest in the result of the approaching elections There appears to be unlimited confidence, and the more hopeful seem disposed to discount to some extent the hoped for result, the effect being plainly to he seen in the ••bullish” tendency of the different speculative properties in the various markets.

From January, 1SG1, to January 1871, Indiana was ruled by the republican party, excepting one democratic legislature, which tried ilsltest to hanknipt the state and destroy its credit by withholding appropriations. Oliver 1*. Morton and Conrad Baker, men whose names will never fade fn in th • memory

of the people of Indiana, were our governors during these ten historic years.

During these ten years—1801 to 1871 —the state of Indiana under the control of the republican party, paid all interest promptly and reduced the state debt front $10,179,207 to $4,167,'<07. From January, 1871, to January, 1881, the state of Indiana was chietly controlled by the democratic party, uii(h rthe lead < of Governors llendricks, Williams and Gray. From January, 1871, to January. 1881, the state debt increased $S:10,671 leaving a total debt at the close of 1880 of $1,998,178. From January, 1881, to January, ISS.j, the republican party again ruled Indiana, and the state debt during that f ur years was decreased $121,570, leav-

ins tiie total slate debt on January 1,

1886, $1,876,608.

Since Jan. 1, lssr>, democratic !■ gislitmes have ruled the state of Indiana, and our state debt is now $8,830,615. In the single year of 18S9 $1,770,000 was borrowed by iho state of Indiana to carry on the state government, pay its ordinary expenditures and pay inter-

est on iis state debt.

Since 1:89 the United States g >vernmeut refunded to Indiana about - non paid by Indiana in direct taxes imposed upon our state by Hie United States government during the war. This tfioney went into the state treasury, and ( (institutes almost the entire amount which our democratic governor is claiming ids administration lias paid out upon the state debt by way of re-

duction.

During the sixteen years of democratic rule—front 1814 to 1861—the democratic leaders and politicians of Indiana robbed tiie common school fund of our state of 1,252,638 acres of swamp laud donated to the state by congress for the benefit of the common school fund. This land was worth at least $2.000,non, and today constitutes some of the vety best farming lands of the state. Yet the school fund never received one penny from this munifi-

cent donation.

It vnts during tiie last half of this period that a democratic supreme court paralyzed and well-nigh destroyed our fiee school system by holding that the (icopli; of a township could not tax the nselves to pay teachers in their free

schools.
