The grand reason why craftsmanship is and al
ways has been failure, is just because love is
not ana never has been allowed to be its constant
prompter and ever-burning soul. Unhappily, it il
thought that having heart disquaGes a man for
being statesman. But he, aud he only, can be n
true statesman whose understanding is controlled
by loving and Christian heart. Love is looked
upon as a weakness and as incompatible with wis
dom. But love alone is strong and where there
Is no love there is no wisdom.
Political men who take up the subject of Slavery
this Convention which is taking it up political
ly-must take it up in love, or more harm than
good to the cause of Freedom will como Of it.
Inc aoolitionlsts, too must infuse more love into
their Efforts Vigorous and clear as are their
apprehensions of Slavery-iust and impress
i've as are their descriptions of it-that is
not enough. They must have more heart and
they must have it not for the slave only, but
tor the stakeholder also. The chief reason why
the southern conscience yields slowly under the
laoor Ot the Abolitioniss, is that it does not feel it
to be labor Of love. / would that all the Abo.
iitonists lay hold of this measure, which we are
now laying hold of do not say that they would
IN TINS wise give all needed proof; but do say
they would give one strong proof that the truth,
which they speak to Shareholders, is spoken in
love.
The Republican party is ated by the South
because it is regarded there as selfish and sordd
Let it, however, identify itself with the great
measure of this Convention and it would give
therein such an evidence Of its benel oent and
fraterna interest in the South it has not hither
to given. Cordially do we invite lis co-ope alton.
Cordially, too, do we invite the cooperation of the
Democratic and Native American parties, and of
the hurches,and Of the Anti Slavery Societies In a
word we call upon the whole country to come for
ward under the prom ptings Of lOve-of love to the
stakeholder and the slave, TO the Slave States and
the Free, to earth to heaven aud to put away Sla-
very entirely and forever. That is a work worthy
of the help of all. Who is there that can refuse

SLAVERY IN INDIANA.
BLOOMINGTON, Oct. 6. 18,

BLOOMINGTON, Oct. U, 1901.
take the liberty to send the following bit of in
formation. There is a man living in OrangeCounty
this State (Indiana), by the name of Wm. A. Bow,
les. l believe he originally from Kentucky.
Said Bowes has some eight or ten negroes in his
employ. Formerly he paid these negroes rs hired
men, but since the Dred Scott decision he has clam-
ed them his slaves and declares if any in ter.
feres with his property, he will appeal TO the
courts for protection.
In all probability the case will 60 before our
courts before long,and we may Look out for another
turn of the Democratic wheel. The Methodist
Conference at New Albany on the 9Th inst, passed
some of the most ultra Ant-Slavery resolutions
that have been published in this State,
Among others, they passed one proposing
to change the discipline to prohibio
the holding of hnmAR beings as property by
any Of their church members. About the
time the Conference in meeting, slave from
the Kentucky side crossed the Ohio River, passed.
through the city and made for the hills, which lie
some ten miles back Of New Albany. Soon after
a and pack OF hounds came over and made
directly for the hills. The hounds we're not long
in striking the iugitve's track and away they
their captive and crossed the river, while the
great principles Of the Democratic party were sus-
tained and carried out aud the Union more firm
ly comented. So you see, since this State gave
Mr. Buchanan 10000 majority the principles Of
Democracy are practically applied No wonder
Mr.. Bowles holds on tn his human chattels, since
men may be hunted down here by a pack Of
hounds. Surely Mr.. Bowles has as much law
for holding his negroes the man from Kentucky
had for hunting his negro down with pack Of
bloodhounds, and returning to him his master in
Kentucky. In the south part of this State, in
those counties bordering on the Ohio River, where
they are largely Democratic, informed it is
a common thing for Kentuckians to come over
and kidnap negroes. Such is Democracy in the
State of Indiana.
