THAT GREAT VICTORY.

CHAIRMAN JEWETT CONGRATULATES THE PARTY. Indianapolis, Nov. 6, 1890. Frllow Democrats—Your state committee sends you congratulations and hearty thanks for the glorious work of Tuesday. You have been victorious along the entire line and elect your state, congressional and legislative tickets by the largest majorities given in moie than thirty years. This is the result of your personal exer- i tiona for the cause you love, aided by the fearless democratic and independent press all of which found untrammeled effec* and expression because of the admirable provisions of our splendid election law. In this time of triumph and rejoicing it ought to be remembered by democrats every where, that a greater struggle is|at hand. To elect a democratic president in 1892, jndiana must be carried. You have accomplished much, but more remains to be done. Preserve your organizations and strengthen them. Calculate closely how you may retain at the next election the advantage you have gained in your several p •ecinots at this one. Above all extend to your democratic sewspapers encouragement and substantial support. Do everything in your power to increase their circulation and extend their influence. Be untiring, fearless and generous in the party service and permanent success will be achieved at the next election. _ _ _ 0. L. JEWETT, Chairman. J. L* Reilly. Secretary.

We extract the following from a letter written ua by an old and highly eateemed Democratic friend in Pennsylvania, just before the election, but which came to hand too late soy publication. It truthfully portrays the methods followed out by the monopolists of that State, and the influence and power of the same, exerted over a large mass of the voters. It also expresses very correctly and forcibly the sentiment of the people regarding the McKinley bill and their viewe as to what necessitated its enactment. Our friend says: But “What of the Night?" I wish I could give you such positive promise of triumph of the right, of justice and integrity, consolidated in Democracy, as would comfort you as a former Pennsylvanian. th S\. and ? et if the P e °P le of this State shall get leave to voice their Payers, ex-Goveruor Robert E. Pattison , elected by ne hundred thousand majority. Only the result will demonstrate how many of the honest, humble >eople of the State have been throttled by boodle or compulsion by threats of the loss of employment from expressing their judgment at the ballot-box. You know this is very largely a manufacturing state; that the manufacturers, corporate and incorporate, employ a large body of men, and that they have been inordinately wealthy, and that with the exception of Eckley B. flox* end William L. Scott, both Demoorts, they }>®®n paying only starvation wages; that the master of Pennsylvania republicans, Matthew Stanley Q aa y, with the co-operation of that saintly fraud, Post-mastor-General Wanamaker, bled them to the bottom of their resources to elect Harrison; that the “fat fried out of them" was not expended in Pennsylvania, but in Y . Or^’vln^ lan a. New Jersey and West Virginia: that In Pennsylvania the workman had to vote for Harrison and the republican ticket, or go without means of support for himself and his family; that under the promise to those they bled a Tariff bill should be passed that would greatly augment their profits, and thus repay them for the enforced assessment upon them to cany that election; that the infamous McKinley Tariff bilf was the outcome of that contract with the manufacturers; that it taxes far out of proportion the necessaries of life that are imperative for toe subsistence of thoso who toil forthemselves and their families, and of which the Augur of the republican Party, Blaine, (who aflected a desire to soften its rigor by a suggestion of Reciprocity) said "there was not a line or a section in it that would open a market for a bushel of American wheat or a pound of American pork." And the Augur, Blaine, has just gone into Ohio and made a speech or speehes to aid the return of this monopolistic pimp to Congress!— Such is the nature of republican sincerity. Again, What of the Night of discouragement and despair of the laborer and farmer? We look hopefully for its darkness to be dispelled and believe, if the masses of.the people are allowed to voice their own judgment, there will not'be enough of vitality left in the bandits who run the republican party to pose in the character of a diaphanous ghost. LOGAN. The Philadelphia Record claims the elect on of the entire Democratic State tibket in Pennsylvania. The Lincoln Independent Republican Club in conuction with the Democratic committee* : n Philadelphia, are engaged id unearth, ing Republican frauds of huge propertionsin that city.

It is now said that Quay will resign as chairman of the Republican National Committee and proceed to vindicate him self. If eur neighbor would but consider that while Dr. Patton is not the silly chatterbox tqat Owen is, he is in every othrr respect a far superior man, he may derive some comfort in his defeat. The defeat of Billy Owen seta awful hard on our neighbor, and he refuses to be comforted. But his spiteful slurs at the good people of Remington and Car. penter township will only recoil upon himself. It is evident they acknowledge no bosses.
