Mr.. Roache graduated in the Bloomington College

Roache will be thrtyive years old fall and has

practice, which practice he did in competition with the
abest lawyers Of the..Sate. In the Wabash valley

every Democrat in the township be enrolled book
prepared for the purpose and let lists be sent either to
of your Senators of the Democratic Repre-
sentatiyes in Congress- you may choose and they win
furnish you speeches and documents As these speeches
cost from 80 cents sIOO per thousand, let small
amount in each be forwarded with the list, and the
documents will be forthcoming. Your Senators and
Representatives are doing their duty, but to furnish
documents all the Democrats of Indiana would ex-
haust their per diem
From these associations more effective and minute or

The name of every Democrat will be enrolled and the
whole strength of the party may be poed If this sys-
is fully adopted we shall increase the Democratic
vote Of Indiana by thousands But make this organi-
cation perfect it be commenced in time Let the
Democrats at the of Justice of each county, first
commence, and the example will be followed by the

deavor to do duty, and if have the hearty CO.
operation Of the Democratic press Of the State as we
feel certain shall have, and the auxiliary aid of the
Democratic Associations and Clubs, shall roll up in
