more votes than they gave Chase. A large proper
ton Of the citizens Of German birth, who went
strongly for Medill last year, are now warmly for
Fremont. We hear from Ohio no doubt expressed
that Fremont i'll carry the State BY at least 80 0O0
We do rot say it will be so much, nor that il will
not be more, but we think there can be no reason
able doubt that the State will vote for Fremont,
and we believe his majority will be large.
INDIANA-The only State Election held since
the passage of the Nebraska bill was that of Oct,
1854, when the aggregate vote stood
State. Republican. :. 90 63s Democratic. s7,O27
Congress.ReJ ubican. 424 Democratic 81 500
Atti-Nebraska ma.-State 1869 Congress l4,557.
There was an election held last year for County
Officers only, In which, mainly through hostility TO
the Liquor Law, the "Demcrats" succeeded;
hut we have no definite returns OF that contest
We believe the State to-day approves and upholds
the verdict che passed the Nebraska bill and lts
supporters in 1854 and yet we do not share the
COL fder ce with which most friends of Fremont re-
gard her vote. If the contest were single AMI
simple. we should have 70 doub! at all; but Mr..
George G. Dunn, one OF her abless Members OF
Congress, who is accustomed ID ruin where ne
csnsOt rule, having broken down in an attempt to
bully the Anti Nebraska Members OF Congress into
changing their candidate for Speaker, has deter
mined to do his best to carry off votes enough from
Fremont to Fillmore to give the Electoral Vete Of
the State to Buchanan. This is the short way of stat
ing The danger and suggesting tneremedy. Mr Dunn
can do more for Buchanan than any five men IN the
State who openly support the latter, and he will
doubtless have acconplices. We trust the State
will be saved Notwithstanding but 10000 votes
wasted on Fillmore will give it to Buchanan.
MICHIGAN This State also has held no political
election since the Nebraska bill passed but that of
Nov, 1854, when her aggregate vote stood
Gorernor-Republcan 43 652 Democratic. :. 3s, ,675

We believe the Town Elections this Spring
showed gain for the wrong side but this does not
shake our confidence in her fixed and emphatic hos
tility to tie men by whom and the measures by
which the fair plains Of Kansas were opened to
Slavery and their ttlers thus subjected to usur.
patton, outrage, violence and death. Michigan is
being thorough canvassed, and we shall be soreiy
disappointed if she fails to give Fremont aud Day
ton at least 5,CO0 majority. Fillmore is notheard
of in the contest in this State.
ILLINOIS In Nov, 1854, Illinois elected her
present Delegation in the House and State Treas
uuer. The vote for the latter stood:
Miller Anti Neb.. 65 AT Moore, Neb. 392
Nebraska majority ---2,9l5.
The vote for Congress was confused by multi
.pIici.y of candidates. but it showeda clear majority
adverse to the Nebraska bill. For instance in the
Springfield District, Maj. Harris was chosen to
Congress by only 200 majority, while Moore for
Treasurer had 1870 In the Alton District,
Judge Trumbu Anti Nebraska, wss elected TO
Congress by 2,6l1, while Moore for Treasurer had
2,795 In the With District, Allen (Nebraska)
had one majority for Congress, and that one gained
by miscount, which the House has just in part
corrected, while Moore for Treasurer had 1898;
Miller receiving no vote at all in three counties of
this as in ten of other Districts. The AntNe-
bIaska majority on the entire Congressional vote
was not less than TO- 0QO; but it was given by men
who did not and do not choose to be called any
thing but Democrats. Thus Col. WIN. II. Bissell,
who opposed the Nabraska bill in Congress, and is
now running on the Fremont ticket for Governor,
is running as an Anti Nebraska Democrat, not as b
Republican. So with the AMT. Nebraska capd-
date for Lieut.. Governor, Francis Hoffman. We do
not appreciate such shadowy distinctions, but there
are those with whom names are things, as was
shown in the cOntrasted vote Of this State for Con-
sress and for Treasurer.

brown away on Fillmore Electoral Ticket We
shall have some apprehensiOns as to the result.
Douglas and Richardson will canvass to make cap

secondly, by driving Adopted Citizens, through |
fear of Nativisln, frpm Fremont to Buchanan. If
the Germanborn citizens vote as their freedom |
loving instincts naturally incline them to do, FIRE.
