YVe are assured that the Democracy will spare no pains to overcome that majority. __TUejr determination .way fie Seen in the fact that they have not only ali Uteir other speakers still l»i the Sold, but they have resorted so the desperate expedientof placing ilioir candidate for the Presidency on the stump; something they would not have done if they had determined to give «p the contest, as some of t Iteir-friends would uikkc ns believe. . They : have Tailed to appropriate the .‘Tate offices, and have now- concentrated all their energies on the election of their so that the places at his disposal may be given to the faithful. / No effort wiH be spared by the Democracy to keep up the appear mice of doing nothing in this county, but on the day of the election you will find every Democrat at the polls. We know that Indiana is a Republican State, and that the majority at the Presidential election can be increased to 5,000 oreven 10,000. But this can only turning out next Tuesday and voting lor Grant and Colfax. - 'i, . .

On. that day the hope and cotivoge wliich had been given the armed rebels tn the field, by the Chicago platform, left them, and from that time they never gained a victory. Ami when in April they finallylaid down their arms before the victorious hosts in blue, they one and all declared that tho “lost cause” was lost indeed. They even supposed It whs so dead that nothing could put the breath of life into it again. But all were deceived. At New York on the 4th day of July, 1888, in the great Democratic Convention, the filthy, rotten, polluting body of the lost catDo was again brought to light aud its votaries declared it was more alive than evor. On the first Tuesday of next November we. are called on to again strangle this matiy-lived monster; aud we will do it so effectually that even Wadi; Hampton, Butcher Forrest, Toombs* Hill, Vai.hmuuiiaji, Skymoi r, Blau:, and all its lesser votaries shall not only declare that it is dead, but they shall be glad to bury tho remains out of sight, so deep that no succeeding Democratic Convention can resurrect it.
