THURSDAY, NOV. 21, 1895.

THE Republican meeting at Indianapolis Wednesday, Nov. 20th. was a notable gathering. Leading Republicans were present in large numbers from all over the State. That honored old Republican, Richard W. Thompson, of Terre Haute, full of years and honors, presided. Speeches were made by Mr. Thompson, Chas. W. Fairbanks, S. N. Chambers, Henry U. Johnson, Jas. IS. Watson, Will Cumback, Jno. L. Griffith, Chas. Landis, Joseph B. Cheadle, J. C. Adams and ethers. They were full of the spirit of vim, vigor and victory. The hall was not half large enough to hold the audience. The people are going to be slow about picking out a candidate for Governor, they desire the man who is the best qualified. As to the State's chairmanship, about nine out of every ten were in favor of retaining Honest Jack Gowdy who has conducted two very successful fights.

"THE Republican candidate for Governor," said a bright young Republican of the last Legislature, "must be a man wlio has shown capacity end energy in some vocation—if a lawyer, he must hare been a good one if a farmer, a first-class one who has succeeded if a business loan, one who has shown business capacity." And the young Republican was right by a majority as large as that of the Republicans in the last election.—Iudiamipjiis Journal.

The above deserves the careful consideration of all voters, of all men who may become delegates to conventions. Let men who are asking for public office bo measured by a standard which men use in securing a man to look after their private business. The public business is of so much importance that it demands men of first.class ability—proven ability. If men hare not made a success at their own calling, whether it be lawyer, doctor farmer, merchant, or whatever.-their vocation may have been, they are not qualified to look after the people's interests. It i* not necessary to give a man an office simply because he wants it. Let the delegates and voters seek and select men who are worthy and well qualified, and pass those men by, no matter how loudly tuey call, who are simply offic«seekers with no special qualifications. The old adage: "Let him who would wear his spurs win them," is a good one to follow.

MRS. KATE PRICE, AGENT.

H. English, of Indianapolis,

Is certainly deserving of the highest commendation for his action in withdrawingfrom public life several years ago in order to devote himself to the task of writing ai history of Indiana, the Introduction of which Is now appearing In two volumes under the title ctf "CONQUEST OF THE NORTHWEST*1 He if a million™ and It la therefore unreasonable to suppose thait his work along historical lines was animated by any spirit of selfishness or sordidnesa. No other nian Is so well equipped for the task he self-imposed. Ha has been a conspicuous figure in Indiana almost continuously since it was" admitted to Statehood!. He Was secretary of the Constitutional Convention, and his personality is strongly marked in the organic law as well as in much of subse-

quent legislation. His great wealth has afforded him opportunities for devoting1, his entire attention to literary labor. His Intimacy with publifc men and State and Federal officials, has given him exceptional facilities for gaining access to documents necessary to Insure thoroughness and exactness in the preparation of his history. After several years of ardent devotlon and labor, undertaken in a spirit of State pride and for pure love of it, the publication of "THE CONQUEST OF THE NORTHWEST" will cause him to be kindly remembered as an Indlaniara whoso motives have been often misconstrued,, ana whose real worth as a man. and citizen has been often Ignored byi unreasonable political bias and human na* ture's Inherent prejudice against men ofl Immense wealth.—Lafayette Courier.
