The New York Tribune is mistaken in eaying that "the fraud business mar be said to hare been closed oat." The fraud business, however, will be closed out on the 4th of March, 1881, when Hancock and English take the helm . Gactiexd made a little speech at Batavia, N. Y. He said, "it is early rising that has made us what we are." and now It woujd be interesting to know if, when Garfield was shinning around Washington for $320, it was early in the morning? Will Republican organs answer? Conkiing seems to continue his "sulking." He refused to be present at the Republican conference in New York,on Thursday. Garfield is too "eee" him, and it is thought that by promising him all the Federal patronage of the Eastern States that he may yet be used to advantage in the campaign, ; One point stands out clear and distinct in that recent Republican conference in New York, and that is that Indiana is to be made the battle-ground of the campaign. In a short time the Indiana Democracy will be face to face with all the rascalities and sub terfuges of Republicanism with all that money can influence and unscrupulous political machination can accomplish. G ix ee als Eteeight and Ben Harrison ac. companied Mr. Garfield on his Eistern pilgrimage. Stanton J. Peelle should have been along. This quartet would have suggested thoughts of the old Returning Board rascality. Garfield was in New Orleans aiding in the rascality which, aa soon as consummated, was duly ratified in Indianapolis, and the speakers on the occasion were Ben Harrison, Streight and Stanton J. Teelle. They promptly met in front of the Journal office m soon as the conspiracy wasl accomplished, and, to a small audience, indorsed the entire miserable business, instead of covering themselves with sackcloth and ashes. POETZR'sTLITICaL CaARLiTAlJRY. The evidence accumulates that the Republican candidate for G overnor is a mere political empiric thoroughly versed in all the finessee of one who, barely comprehendIng hi3 own inherent weakness, seeks to hoodwink the honest people of Indiana by pretentious claims of statecraft for himself and an honest, beneficent record for his party. Said an old citizen, the other day, who knows Albert G. Forter well: "He should have remained in Washington and allowed his friends to have made the canvass for him. He won't wear. There is not very much of him at beet, and the more he mingles with the people the leas substantial progress will he make lor timfelf or for his party." How different this is as to the estimata of the character of Mr. Landers. The more Mr. Landers mingles with tbe people, the more is he appreciated. Said one the other day: "I did not intend to vote for him, but Bince I have seen him and heard ! him talk, I will vote for him cheerfully." Mr. Landers ia a practical, active, energetic, large brained man. He thoroughly knows Indiana, from the lake to the river; he knows her people and comprehends their interests, their manners, customs, necessities and peculiarities. Mr. Forter never did comprehend them never can never wiU. He is simp'y a clever gentleman, and as to his professional attainments stands perhaps a little beyond the line of a second rate, but hardly np to that of a first-class lawyer. We distinctly assert that ; the Republican candidate for Governor is a political empiric or charlatan. Here is a bold, fair instance In point At Brazil he absolutely and unblushingly told his audience that the Southern Senator had opposed and voted against all bills looking to soldiers pensions. When Senator Yoorheea held a meeting a few days later in the same County, several of those who had heard Mr. Forter make the assertion told Mr. Yoorheea, and asked him to contradict iL It so surprised the Senator that he exclaimed: "It is Impossible that any man with any brains could make such an assertion. Gentlemen, yon certainly are mistaken." They insisted that they wer not, and immediately went out and soon brought in several more gentlemen who had heard Mr. Porter make the same remark. This satisfied Mr. Yoorheea, and at the meeting In Carbon, Clay County, the auue afternoon, a gentleman who heard the, Senator, says that he sever heard such a terrible scoring . given any man on the stamp as Senator - Yoorheei gave Albert G. Porter. This Is one Inexcusable instance of Mr. Porter' political charlatanry.,.,' ,0 . In the same Brazil speech the lame trait of demagogy waa again illustrated in the check clftim that he made for the Republic

an party in regard to "homeeteada" and the public lands. He claimed all tbe credit for the Republican party in having looked after the Western pioneer and his interests. Was there ever such an illustration of ignorance or political quackery? VTe answered Mr. Porter a few days after his Brazil speech, calling attention to the fact that the measure granting pre-emption rights to settlers on the publio lands originated with Thomas H. Benton, and the bill as passed granting those rights was signed by a Democratic President, Andrew Jackson. The Republican party has squandered an immense amount of . the pnblic domain, that is, it has oircn to railroads over 175,000,000 acres of publio lands amounting to rilAm 50,000,000 acres of the entire area of the thirteen original Stales. We understand that Mr. Porter has repeated this same false statement as to homesteads elsewhere in the State, These are but a few illustrations of this political empiricism which seems to be the leading qualification of the Republican candidate for Governor. We are glad to note that he is making frequent speeches and an active canvass. The more speeches he makes, the more freely he mingles with the people, the quicker will he reach the end of his political rope, and the sooner will tbe people of Indiana come to the conclusion that he has not the making of a Governor of Indiana in his composition.

EON. FRANKLIN LANDERS AT SEYMOUR. Last evening Hon. Franklin Landers addressed the people of Seymour and vicinity. This speech of the Democratic candidate for Governor we lay before our readers to-day, and ask for it the attention its merits demand. We have no desire to overestimate Hon. Franklin Landers, Democratic candidate for Governor, nor to underestimate his opponent, Hon. A. G. Porter.- Mr. Porter is a lawyer, versed in quibbles and technicalities. His ambition has been to hold office, and his political friends rate him high as a speaker and as a logician. Hon. Franklin Landers is a business man a practical business man, prominently identified with a number of the business enterprises of the State. Porter is put forth by his political friends as a college graduate, a man of learning; as an orator powerful on the stump. His speeches are published in tbe organs of his party. They are regirded as perfection. We do not objzet to these h!ga estimates; on the contrary, we like them. Bat we ask the people to real the Bpeech of Mr. Landers at Seymour, whic we publish to-day. We invite special attention to the facte, to the crguments, and then we challenge comparison with anything Mr. Porter ha said. Hon. A. G. Porter, it should be understood, is an apostate Democrat. All understand the meaning of apostasy. When convictions have no higher signlfhancs than office, they degrade instead of elevate. A treach erous man is always woak; a false and faithless man is always an object of loathing; a renegade who deserts one cimp and flees to another for office Is always deficient in honest convictions, and when such a man places himself before the people for their approval he is deserving of condemnation. Mr. Landers exposes Mr. Porter. He removes Mr. Porter's cuticle. He excavates Mr. Porter. He gibbets Mr. Porter. He puts Mr. Forter in tbe pillory. He lifts him out of his boots and his socks, and lays him out a political corpse. Ha battles the Republican Porter. He corks up tbe Republican beverage, hermetically seals it. and labels it "worthless." All this the Democratic candidate for Governor dws genteelly, decently and in order. He ties Mr. Torter up to the Democratic whipping poat, and with cat o' nine-tail arguments flogs him until his friends cry oat "crueL" Leaving Porter to writhe, Mr. Landers pays h:s attention to the R3pubiican party, anl, It i fair to say, that the dog fares worsa than the fleas in its hair. If Bsrgh were in Indiana, he might prefer charges against Mr. Landers for cruelty to animal. Bat, we ara eilend ing our notice of Mr. Lmdsr' .speech at Seymour to too great length. Oar purpose was simply to invite our readers to give it a careful perusal. Tals done, th9 jastica cf our criticism will be apparent. REPUBLICANS IN COUNCIL. On Thursday, the 5th Inst, the republican managers, Garfield and Arthur included, met in council at the Fifth Avenue Hotel, in the city of New York. Among those present were Blaine, Sherman, Logan; Cameron, X. P. Banks, William E. Chandler and Finchback. We mention the most distinguished" conspirators. True, General Ban Harrison's name is mentioned, but since Hon. James D. Williams parsed him through the Democratic thrashing machine, General Ban has not amounted to much in Indiana. Probably the meat attractive features of the conference was the presence of Garfield consulting with N. P. Banks and Chester A. Arthur cheek by jowl with John Sherman. Such combinations indicate' pretty clearly that the Republican party does not care a fig for the eternal fitness of things. It will be , remembered that when Oakes Ames had bribed Garfield,' the Republican candidate for President, that an Investigating Committee, composed of three Republicans and two Democrats was raised to investigate the scandal. N. P. Banks was on that Committee. Oakes Ames swore that Garfield had Credit Mobiler stock and had been paid Credit Mobilier dividends. Garfield txcore he had never held any Credit Mobilier stock, and had never received any Credit Mobilier duulenJs. The issue was dis inctly made. Garfield had raised his hand to Heaven and had sworn. The sanctity of an oath was upon his lips, and the terrible responsibility rested upon his naked soul. N. P. Banks was familiar with all the facts. He had heard all the testimony. He knew Oakes Ames and Garfield personally.' He was their associate and fellow member of Congress.. They were all Republicans. N. P. Banks was also under oath. He was sitting as a judge. He knew the effect 'and force of his decision. Under such circumstances what did he dof He put itoa record that James A. Garfield ; s, had sworn ' falsely, . aad from that. moment James A. Garfield's name end character was Wade black .with crime. N. P. Banks said: "The facte in regard to Mr. Garfield, as found by the Com

mittee, are that he agreed with Mr. Ames to take ten shares of Credit Mobilier stock, but

did not pay for the same. Mr. Ames re ceived the 80 per cent, dividend in bonds, and sold them for 97 per cent, and als j re ceived the 60 per cent cash dividend, which, together with the price of the stock and interest, left a balance of $320. This sum was paid over Mr. Garfield by a check on the Sergeant-at-Arms, and Mr. Garfield then understood this sum was the balance of dividends after paying for the stock." And, yet, X. P. Banks appears in he presence of Garfield to perfect schemes by which he may be placed in the exalted office of President It is not possible for partisan duplicity to reach profounder depths of Infamy. Nor is this all. John Sherman was prominent in the Fifth Avenue Hotel Republican Con ference, where he met the conspirators, and Chester A. Arthur, the Republican can didate for Vice President John Sherman is now trying to devise schemes to elect Ches ter A. Arthur to the second highest office in the gift of the American people. This Chester A. Arthur was at one time, not long ago, Collector of the Port of New York. He was removed for cause. What cause? Let John Sherman tell in his own way. Here is what be eaid: Oroes abuses of administration have continued and Increased during your incumbency. Persons have tx-en regularly paid by you who have rendered little or no service; the expenses of your office have increased while its receipts have diminished. Bribes or gratu ities In the chape of bribes have been received by your subordinates In several branches of the Custom House, and you have in no case supported the effort to correct these abuses. And now John Sherman seeks to make such a man Yice President With such facts in full view, with suoh documentary evidence before them, with such verdicts on record, made by prominent Republican of ficials, what will honest Republicans say? What will they do? Is it probable that they will vote for auch candidates? Will party triumph over their patriotism? Yenly, we believe not THE GERMAN ELEMENT. Thonghtlul Democrats find moBt encouragement in the fact that the party is being largely reinforced by the German element of our fellow citizens. It is palpable that because of the Teutonic aversion to the "Oaio Idea," on the money queetion, the Buckeye State has beeen voted to tbe Re publicans. Recently the most influential German paper in Northern Ohio, the Cleveland Wächter am Erie, has abandoned Ihe Republican party and come out for llnucock and Eugliüb. bo has the PitUburg Volibb ait. The Conservative property-holding and tax-paying sons of the fatherland naturally do not take kindly to Garfield's wabbling letter, tainted record, anl surrender to the machine politicians, on the question of civil eervice reform. They take it, doubtless, that their best chance to contribute to harmony, prosperity and the public good lies in the support of the Democratic ticket Thet the Republican party has given the country an expensive and extravagant Govern meat waste to the German mind is a crime affords one good reason why tbe hearty co-operation of these valuable allies may be expected. The Republican party is also a party of centralization; thousands of German Americans have felt tbe full force of that imfamy in tbeir native country. Besides this, the Republican party is a party of "Know Nothingism" and intolerance, and, in truth, has do sentiment in common with the German people. MORE REPUBLICAN MISREPRESENTATION. There seems to be a regular system of misrepresentation inaugurated by the Republican pipers, and especially by tbe Indianapolis Journal and its correspondents regarding matters connected with the State canvass We have exposed much of this miereprcten tation not to say downright lying, and we now have another case in point. Our CoryJon, Harnscn County correspondent, writes us as follows: Tbe following appeared in the Indianapolis Journal of the 4th inst: "The Harrison County Republicans are wide awake and In active motion all along the line. Meetings are being held In ail the out Townships and speeches made by Major Wra. T. Jones, R. J. Trucewell and others equally posted, and tbese meetings are well attended." Reports of this kind might deceive people In other parts of the Btate where the facts are not known. The truth is. there has not been a single Republican meeting in this Couatyup to this date, and several Republicans who saw the report above referred to, expressed thtir utter disgust at the misrepresentations that appear from day to day in the Journal, of which this one is ouly a simple. Whatever the Rads do in this County, the Damocratsare determined they shall not willfully misrepresent the status o.' the campaign wlLho.H contradiction. The meetings aud crowds above reJerred to exists here only in the mind of the Journal's correspondent. As to this Republican s'yle of reporting the progress of the campaign we may exclaim with Charl?s Dicken "And now you may have a pretty cansiderable damned good sort of a feeble notion that it don't fit nohow." THAT CHALLENGE. " We publish elsewhere this morning the challenge of Hon. A. G. , Porter to Hon. Franklin Landers for a joint canvau of the State. The Republican papers baye been alluding to this challenge as having been sent several days ago. Oar readers will notice that Mr. Porter's letter bears the date of yesterday (August 9), and that the reply of Mr. Landers bears tbe same date. This invitation to a joint canvass was promptly answered by Mr. Landers yesterday as soon as received. The Republican papers have permitted a great deal of unnecessary "blowing" and "bragging" about this matter, and some have intimated that Mr. Porter would annihilate Mr. Landers with his first effort. We have no reply to make to this class of braggarts. We say briefly to our friends throughout the State that Mr. Landers will bear himself creditably and satisfactorily to his friends, and also io such a manner that his political enemies will not bs so keen to indulge in any future foolish bravado. One good end. will be reached, at least, and that is, Mr. Porter will not probably indulge himself in loose ard reckless statements in a joint canvass, as he has been doing during ihe past two weeks. . The statement is very widely published that Hon. AlbertG. Porter has challenged Hon. Franklin Landers to a joint discussion of the issues of. the campaign. The statement is simply a lie. Hon. Albert G. Porter has done nothing of the tort, nor Is he likely to commit such a folly while

under the training of those who are such imbeciles as to bet money on him. The fact is, Albert G. Porter is already played out Asa stump speaker he is rec

ognized as a dead failure. He has been tremendously overestimated. Lake Garfield, he prefers to go "shinning around." As a big gun he Is a failure. He has got bore and muzzle, but somehow he flashes in the pan. His most powerful efTjrts are when he sneezes. He is great on a sneeze but as a pun he is a failure. Loaded for long range he kicks; for abort range he scatters. His managers think of taking him In for repairs. So far, he is beating "Frank Landers as Benny did Bine Jeans," and that Is nothing to boast of. Porter has made himself an object of sympathy. He is thought to be too pretty to be slaughtered. He is a nice Utile man who doesn't know a hayvrake from a fine-tooth comb, nor a reaper from a piano. His mind and energies have been for so many years devoted to neckties, silk stock logs, kid gloves and Washington society. that his stump efforts are as barren of ideas as Tanner's stomach was of food after forty days' fasting. Under such circumstances Mr. Porter is not In a fix to challenge anybody to stump him . Hla present position is very annoyicg. Hs has to make speeches, but he has nothing to say. To keep him on the track is cruelty to animals. Like an old cart wheel, he needs ro-tiricg. Like an old shoe, he n rnn down at the heel. On a hunt for office, he is about as dangerous as the gun which Paddy carried when he was hunting rabbits it had no lock. Bs assured that under such circumstances Porter won't fend a challenge. That Republican Conference. Hon. John A. Finch returned from an Eastern business trip yesterday. He was in New York during the late Republican conference. A representative of the Sentinel meeting him last evening, drew the following from him regarding that meeting. Mr. Finch said : The political conference was a grievous disappoiutment to Oeorge William Curtis, and many who had hoped to see the party take high ground. The independent press of the East are unsparing in putting upon General Garfield the responsibility of tbe tone of the speeches. They were of the lowest order of blcody shirt harangues The whole intent apparently was to iutlame the iortn against the South ; to create anew every evil passion born of the wtr; lo maK it forever impossible that there shall be peace and fraternization between the sections. They desire a sectional strife inaugurated thatsluill last forever. This the independent element will not sub unit to, aud nnless some bold etep Is taken, and taken immediately, to lift tbe canvass out of tbe slough, the independents will vote for Hancoca or not vote at all. Many of the mu who attended the famous conference of Independents In 1S7Ö were present. Many more were watchful of whit was belog done. They were diseusted both at the company and at tbe speeches made. They, looked to Garfield to introduce something better. He lot Imineasureably that he did not tafte a high stand and compel the orators to come np to It. The conference practically abandoned the field proposed by Schurz in his speech at Indianapolis. It will heavily react upon the party. A Joint Canvass. The following correspondence passed yes terday between the two distinguished candidates for Governor of Indiana: ' Hon. Franklin Landers: Dear Sib It is understood to be the desire of many of our respective political friends that we shall, at some period In the present canvass, engage In tbe folnt discussion of political issues. I have, therefore, tne honor to Inquire if It will be agreeable to you to enter upon such a joint dicussion. X would respectfully suiget tbat it it will, the timed and places for the discussion might be fixed by persona to be mutually chosen by us. Yours, very resptetfully, A. U. Porter . Indianapolis, August 9, 1SS0. To which the following reply was promptly made: Hon. A. G. Porter, Indianapolis: Dkak 8ir Your note of to-day inviting me to discuss with you the political Issues now before the country Is received. 1 accep, your invitation wttn pleasure, and respectfully refer yea to the Knecutlve CummUtte of the Democratic State Central Committee, which is authorized to act for me in makiug the necessary preliminary arrangements for our meetings.

It Is stated by men who ought to know that the stockholders will lose heavily. There is good authority for the statement that General Hancock has written a letter to General Sherman requesting the privilege o' making public Sherman's letter upon which waa ba.xed tbe reply of General Hancock, recently made public, and which is now memorable. Sherman has refused to either give the letter to the public himsslf or to permit General Hancock to do so.

The important feature in this Invention Is that an a ttachment Is provided wh'ch will render collisions Impossible, each train automatically preserving a sale distance from that following it. The brakes are t be operated by the same electrical currents which propel the motor. General Garfield and his party, on their way, lat week, to attend the conference of Republicans in New York, made short baits at many of the principal towns on the line between Buffalo and New York. Large crowds greeted the arrival of trains, and considerable enthusiasm prevailed among the Republicans. There was cannon firing, cheers and music. Lieutenant Governor Hopkins accompanied the party from Buffalo, and introduced Genera' Garfield to the thrones at the stations. Governor Cornell and Geoeral Arthur joined them at Albany. When they ar lved In New York Republican leaders greeted tbem. Garfield and party returned borne yesterday. Tbe conference in New York seems to have teen a Republican wall that everything was going to the "demnltlon bow-wows."
