Both Of them made highly interesting and important

No sooner had the long applause, amidst whlch

now drawing 10 q close satisfies me that the predc-
tion of the eloquent old ex-senator Is certain 10 be
verified on the 18th of October Never before has
such energetic and telling work been done IN any
campaign in Indiana. Both IN regard to meetings,
and efiectual work Of township and ward organza-
tion the Republicans in most of our counties have
dispaved the most praiseworthy activity, and sue
cess will certainly crown their noble efforts. Ot
course our majority viii somewhat suliei IN cose-
quence OF the GIGANTIC frauds by which the unserl-
pulous leaders of the Democracy hope 10 save their
sin king cause; but the Republicans are wide awake
throughout the State; the registry lists are closely
scanned and suspicious strangers are VIg!lantly
watched so that the frauds viii be principally con
