The Louisville Courier Journal recently devoted almost a page to giving an account of “Indiana in the war.” It shows that Indiana was first in devotion to the union and no state shows a brighter record. “When the end of the war came, although Indiana was a border state and her strength might have been needed to keep the enemy off her soil, still when the books are balanced it was shown that Indiana had put into her army 75 3 per cent of her men of militia age according to the census of 1860, a higher percentage than any of 1 the larger states, the average of the north being 61 3. “The deaths were 17 7 percent of the enlistment. The average death rate of all the states is 16 7 percent, showing Indiana's death rate to be higher than ' the average. At the battle of Manassas the Nineteenth Indiana regiment lost 51 2 percent of her men. •'No state Ims erected such a mono- i ment in honor of her awldiem as can be seen at Circle park, at Indianapolis, and in addition to this Indiana has for years kept a soldiers’ and soldiers' orphans' home, and a soldiers’ home is now being erected near the famous Tippecanoe battle ground in the vicini- 1 tv of Lafayette.” Farmers! .
