TO CAPITALISTS

Recent experiments have demonstrated
the fact that BEssEMER Steel Rails can
be made in Indiana at a cost of from $50
to so less per ton than the price of for
eign rails delivered in New York CITY.
Capitalists IN Chicago are engaged in the
folly of freighting indiana pig iron and
Indiana coal to that city for the manufac-
ture of steel rails, when cost So per ton
more than if made in Indiana.
The above is published every day in
the Indiana Journal, under, its editorial
head. If true, which is probable, Indiana
contains the elements of wealth and sub
sistence for greater population than any
state in the Union.

The Monticello Herald saws.

The people Of Northern Indiana will
net foTget that Orth, while in Cong ress
was Instrumental in obtaining an a, Dro
priatien in aid of the Michigan CITY har-
Dor.
The Michigan City Enterprise has a
long article, urging his nomination, from
which we clip the following:
Mr. Orth is statesman of experience
and asility, and popular man with the
masses. He lives in the northern part of
the State, which has seldom furnished
candidates for our ckief offices. That
Northern Indiana has not fur nishpd such
candidate heretofore is not so much the
fault, perhaps, of other port of the
State as it is of our own want of accord
In the present case, the noI'th-so pres
ent indications warrsnt-wil be almost
uait in its desire to secur the Cover
norship to Mr. Orth. No bet ter candidate
can be suggested; and this part of the
State, we candidly think, is entitled to
the nomination, unless a stronger man
be presented-which we doubt.
From the Howard County Republican ),
While we have no utteran ce against any
gentleman named, we are inclined to the
opinion that it is to the inter IT of the
Republican party, at this pa rtlcular peri
cd, to nominate Hon. Godlo'ye s. Orth, of
Tppecanoe.
In view of these facts, we think il is to
the interest of our party to select some
man who neither resides at the Capital
nor whose business is situated there
Godlove S. Orth has never been suspected
even. much less charged with pecula ton
of any kind, has served his party, the
State and the nation faithfully in Con
gress, and while there made a record of
which Indiana may well feel proud
We have not space for more than the
following words of wisdom" from the
Fort Wayne Journal:
Among the several candidates named,
by friends and the press, for Governor, no
one is more popular and favorably men
toned than Hon. g. S. Orth, of Tippe-
canoe County. 1t is not our purpose to
mention his many qualifications for the
position. No one has yet dared to make
single objection TO him; talented, up
right. frank and truthful, he has no su
perior in the State as debater; and is
better informed, perhaps, on all the politi-
cal questions of the day than any other
man in Northern Indiana He has been
tried and not found wanting. He will
command the support Of radical Republi-
cans and has the respect Of the entire
moral portion of our people. He will not
be the 65fee holders candidate, nor the can
didate of clique or ring. To insure sue
cess to the Republican party in Indiana,
the very best man must be placed az the
head of the State ticket in the coming
campaign. We are satisfied that G. S.
Ortiz is the man, and that he combines in
himself more of the elements of success
than any candidate yet named
Marshall County Republican. (Plymouth, Ind.) 1856-1878, 1872-01-25

over 100000 Texas cattle have died O
