Another point Of interest in the cun>lllta-

ditiun of affairs in Indiana. about Which SEN
ator Morton manilr>ts the greatest apprciiciI-

thrown away in North Carolina, but SoInc-

Morton is 10 have his State cared for,
though from all accounts money will
not save Morton. There was one
other point developed in the consultation
which will be of interest to The public "clIr-
rally. and that was the necessity OF protecting
and strengthening the Cameron ring in Penn
s~ylyania and the other rings throughout the
country as a means to help Grant. The pro-

rings was thought TO be Of the first con>c-
