CAPT. GUTHRIE’S CANVASS.

Visits Numerous Points In the District and Is Accorded a Warm and Cordial Reception. Capt. Guthrie, Democratic candidate £qx_ Congress in this district, has spent the last few weeks in visiting some of the principal points in the district and becoming acquainted with the people. Most of his time hithero has been Bpent in the north end of the district. This week he is visiting Newton and Jasper counties, ana later he will spend some time in Benton, Warren and Tippecanoe. These visits are but preliminary to a more thorough canvass which Capt Guthrie hopes to make later in the campaign. Speaking of his visit to that city the Michigan City Dispatch says: "Caj tain Wil'.am Guthrie of Moi.ticello, the democratic candidate for congress in this district, who spent the past twenty-four hours in the city calling on democrats, went to Laporte this afternoon and will remain there until tomorrow, when he will return to the south end of the district. Hon. Dan W. Simms of Lafayette, the district chairman, who came here with Captain Guthrie, left for his home last night via Chicago. ‘•Captain Guthrie met perhaps a hundred of the democratic leaders and workers while here, and he impressed all of them with his charming personality. He had never visited this city before and he was greatly surprised and gratified with our beautiful town and its hospitable people. On every side he was received with cordiality and fie in turn left a most favorable impression -upon our people. Captain Guthrie earned his title by service in the Spanish-American war, He was in Governor Durbin's regiment, and served alongside the Michigan City company in the same regiment. He saw service in Cuba, and during all of the stirring times of the war he discharged his duty to his country with credit and ability. Captain Guthrie is an attorney by profession and is a gentleman of about forty years. He is making a complete canvass of this district and he is certainly receiving many flattering assurances of support. The democracy and the people generally of the district would honor themselves by the election of such a scholarly gentleman as Captain Guthrie to represent them in congress. “Later in the campaign Captain Guthrie promises to return here and make an address, when all of the people will be given an opportunity to both hear ana meet this able champion ot democracy’s cause," The Laporte Argus-Bullotin thus notes his visit to Laporte: "The visit of Captain Guthrie to this city has convinced the local democracy that no error of political judgement w..s committed in his nomination by the Monticello convention. His candidacy should unite all democrats of she district on a common platform. He stands for the democratic party, and he promises in the canvass which he will make to safeguard its interests. Captain Guthrie is a powiron the stump. He served his country as a soldier, he is an attorney of fine legal attainments, and he believes that in serving the people lie best serves bis country. La Porte county democracy j owes nothing to Crumpacker and the policy which he represents, and men who believe that the time has come to, strike down the trusts and the tariff which fosters trustism should rally to the standard of Guthrie." Regarding his visit to Hammond the Lake County News says: “In company with that stalwart exponent of democracy, Dan Bimms the Tenth district democratic committeeman, Capt. Wm. Guthrie of Monticello, Ind.,

was in Hammond today. Capt. Guthrie is the democratic candidate for congress from this district. Besides being a very distinguished looking gentleman, he is a remarkably able specimen of American manhood, both mentally and physically. Capt. Guthrie is splendidly equipped to giye Congressman Crumpacker the hottest race that he could be given by any man in the Tenth district."
