From the Cincinnati Enquirer
Indiana Election.

Our Democratic friends in Indiana
have done splendidly. They carry the
State ticket by 300 majority. They
have majority in the Legislature on
Joint ballot certain, il not a working
majority in both branches. This is a
wonderful success, when tits remember
ed that the legislative apportionmen t
was made by the Republicans with the
idea that, so great was the gerrymander
such a result was impossible The
Supreme Court for six years will be
composed of Democratic Judges. They
have five congressman out Of eleven, q
gain of one, and they came within
four votes of gaining another
In another district, misrepresented by
Mr. Shanks, they are barely 200 be-
hind. The Hon. Daniel w. Voorhees,,
who in 1868 had but l2S majority, has
now over 1900. In the Third District
Judge Holman increases his majority
of 762 to 23O0. In the Second District
Mr.. Kerr has 900 majority, and in the
First Mr.. Niblack is reelected by a
largely increased vote. Thus carrying
the State ticket, the State Judiciary, a
mos tieing the Congressional delegation,
our Democratic friends in the Hoosier
State have good reason to rejoice.

LONDON, October l9.-An ammuni-
ton wagon was blown up yesterday,
near castle at Sedan. The greatest
CONSERVATION was created, the gates OF
the town were closed, the drawbridges
were drawn up and the guards recalled
to the castle, as il was thought that an
attack had been made. Order was
soon restored however. Three Bavarians
were killed by the explosion and great
number injured. The accident was
caused BY spark OF fire from a smoke
pipe.
On the l4th the Parisians made
another sortie with several battalions
of troops and were repulsed. A
French entrenching party at Villejnif
was driven into the city on the same
day. Five hundred Garde Mobiles
escaped from the Germans on the 10Th
near the Cheteau Itinerary during an
attack made by the Franco-Tireurs.

South Carolina Election.

CHARLESTON, October l9.-The cleo
ton for Governor, members OF Con
gress, Legislature and county officers
took place to-day. In this city the con-
test was excited, with extraordinary in
terest. Business was universally sus-
pended. The day passed off quietly.
The contending parties were Republican
and Union Reformers. Owing to the
peculiar features of the election law the
votes could not be counted and the re-
suit can not be ascertained for week
hence. 1t is, however, conceded that
the Reformers have carried Charleston
BY at least thousand majority. Both
parties confidently claim the State.
The contest in this District between
Bowen and his mulatto opponent De
Large, for Congress, has been close.
Both are Republicans.

Manure Sod Land.

Manure Your land with sod. Our
best farmer does this invariably. He
applies the manure on grass, using also
ashes, plaster, salt, etc, to help make
the sod, and then turns it down. His
land which was once poor; is now fat,
it always yields well when to grain
first corn, then oats or barley, and then
wheat (fall wheat the same year, thus
making fallow and getting a crop
besides. After the wheat (on the SHOWS
in the spring. or summer grain, if that
is raised it is seeded Thus, in good
condition, it is just the thing to grow a
good crop of grass and make the land
still tatter. Here on pastures, and
meadows, and grain fields, it is worth
while to look at and yearly.
With this treatment OF land no
manure need be narrowed in for grain
You always have 1.-THE manure in the
soil and of the best kind and ready
soluble You need but use it and get
the good at once, and ameliorate the
condition OF your land You have this
one advantage, which is not generally
thought of-you have no harsh or raw
manure to apply; none with that effect :
hence no manure to prepare. But what
you have is a sweet, wholesome thing,
well distributed in the soil-roots and
soil and all doing its work, without
harm to any grain or product, but with
great benefit, and just the right kind
Of benefit
There is no such healthful, ready
manure as sod, and answering for all
purposes. Besides, it is natures ma
nure, if we may so distinguish it. 1t
has proved itself what we have said it
is doing that constantly, and it is the
great regenerator of the soil. 1t is GER
tain we are not using sod enough.

PENNSYLVANIA Election.

The result of the election in Pennsyl-
vania was but bunglingly and imper-
fectly transmitted by telegraph, On
the night of the election fragmentary
accounts Of the vote were given in such
a manner as to lead to the impression
that the Republicans had swept the
State by as large, if not larger majority
than before. After that the news stop
ped, and we were reduced to the neces-
sity of depending upon our exchanges
for it. This is always the case when
the news is not particularly gratifying
to the Republicans. The Pittsburgh
Commercial (Republican), Of Monday,
gives the following as the Congressional
result.

This would indicate a Republican
majority in The State on the Congres-
sional vote, of 1912. 1t thus appears
that eleven Democrats and one indie
pendent Republican chosen over the
regular Republican nominee, were
elected, and that the delegation is about
equally divided. There is a Democratic
gain Of five members. The Republican
majority on the popular vote, which
was nearly 10000 for Grant for Presi-
dent in November, has sunk down to
1912. The Democrats claim majority.
This victory, too, has been won in de-
spite OF the fact that in Philadelphia
the United States marines, under the
orders Of the United States Marshal,
seized upon the polls, and by the terror
of the bayonet, deprived thousand Of
Democrats of the right Of suffrage.
