er the best means Of supplying a candi-
date for Governor. The declination Of
Elisha Embree. nominated in January
last. by the Wing Convention. leaves a
vacancy in our general ticket, and impos-
es the necessity of a speedy choice ofan-
other proper and acceptable name, for that
high trust.
The State Central Committee. after a
careful consideration Of its duty to those
represented by it, have deemed it proper
to postpone any nomination till the great
body ofthe Wing party. through its chosen
delegates, can be heard from in State
Convention. For this purpose. the COM
mittee would mostrespectfully recommend
that delegates chosen b. the People, in
the respective counties, assemble at lndi-
apolis, on THU RSDAY, the third day of
NAY next, TO nominate a Candidate for
Governor, and The prompt and speedy CO.
operation Of our fellow citizens, in this
matter, is urgently invoked.
In thus deiering to the popular will, and
invoking an expression OF its wishes in a
matter Of such high concern, the committee
feels that it is dischargng its duty to those
from whom it holds q limited authority
While SO many names are at the service
Of the party-honorably conspicuous in
defeat and triumph--it is due to the great
Wing family Of Indiana that its chosen
delegates should designate THE NAN to
conduct our glorious State to the new civic
victory which awaits the Wing Standard
in August next. To you belongs the right
10 make this selection, and we doubt not
that it will be properly exercised.
In looking over the condition Of our be-
loved country, there is much to inspire
and but little to depress the Patriots hope.
For the first time in twenty years with
but ghtinterval,) the Wing party Of the
Union have a permanent hold on the gov
eminent Of the country, and with ANNA
ting prospects that the people will sustain
the good work began and finished by
themselves in November last. A patriotic
President occupies the seat Of WASHING
ISGToN, and aims to bring back our Gov.
eminent to the practice Of our earlier
Chief Magistrates. Full of sentiments OF
justice, federation, and love Of the Union,
he only asks that his country should award
to his Admin str alton fair and impartial
trial, willing that his own fame and the
success Of his Executive Mission be judg-
ed by the body Of his coun,rymen. Un-
prac,iced in the arts Of the politician, ne
can reasonably expect no justice from the
political leaders who opposed his election;
but from the mass Of the honest, intelli-
gent, and patriotic friends of his defeated
competitor, he may, and Of RICH, does, ex-
pect fair consideration Of all proper eff.
forts to serve his country.
The sense Of justice which animates
the American people, and which is bu
seldom appealed to in vain, will be heard
and felt in our coming contest, and the
ground swell of that popular current which
bore the old Patriot to the Capital. will
sustain. on its mighty bosom, the edifce
Of the NATloN's HoPE. Fifteen States
including the empire" and the "Key
stone''-cast their suffrages for Presiden
TAYLOR in November; and we trust tina
IND1ANA-thc early object Of his labo
and Of his solicitude-will be found rank
ed with the sovereignties which sustain hi:
Adminst ration. so far as that administra
ton tends to the tranquility and honor o
our beloved Union. The commencement
of that Administration is suspicious, ant
all the Just expectations of the American
people will be realized in the sequel Of it:
history.
To the Wings Of 1niiana-she men o
1910, "a, and lo48-we would appeal t
sustain the sovereignty Of the people ane
the freedom Of Congress against the Vete
Power. On call questions Of domestic
policy" President Taylor rejects the RICH
to use that negative on the action Of Con
gress. His Inaugural Address is before
the country, and no fair man will charg'
that he is not explicit on this head. Man,
) Of those who acted with the Wings of In
diana, in years gone by. abandoned thei
party in 1913. and voted for Mr.. Van Blu

Gen. Taylor! Thousands Of them wer
