Marshall County Republican. (Plymouth, Ind.) 1856-1878, 1876-09-14

ably as did the fraternity OF Free
Masons when he presented his name
to become a member of that order.
On the 7th about fifty ladies and
gentlemen of this township went to
/ Warsaw to hear Senator Morton,
He spoke two hours to an audience
Of three or four thousand, and all
! spoke highly of the sentiments put
forth. He dealt, as he always does,
in facts, figures and official docu-
ments, which can not be gainsaid
by his opponents. At night General
Sheridan spoke in the Opera House
to large audience, and meyer did we
hear so much applause in the same
length of time. He spoke an hour
and a quarter and covered the entire
ground usually trayersed by political
speakers, besides illustrating every
thing by comparisons and anecdotes
Of the most laughable character. AS
he was Southern man, he explained
the reform" plan OF carrying the
election in those States, which is by
well organized system Of "nigger-
killing" and intimation.
Judge Corbin spoke in Match
cites hall last Saturday evening to
an audience of about one hundred
He gave Mr.. Wheeler OF Plymouth,
such raking that he will not soon
recover from it, and one would natu-
rally have supposed that he, instead
of Capron, was the other Democratic
candidate for Judge. Much time was
spent in calling the friends of Mr.
Capron coarse, slanderous and other
pet names, but he utterly failed to
prove that he was not guilty Of gam
bling and other offenses. He an
swered the charge of depositing
large sums of money just after re-
turning home from Indianapolis,
which Mr.. Capron said was part of
his bride money, by stating that he
had forgotten where it came from.
How strange 1t is that a business
man should have thousands of dol
lars and not know where it came
from! have not had hundred dol
lars within the last twenty years that
1 can not tell just where it came from.
Before closing he made the asser-
ton that Mr.. Keith, the Republican
candidate for Judge, was not able and
had not the ability to fill the Office,
which he knew to be untrue when he
made the assertion. The sheriff Of
Fulton county was here to testify to
one point Doc. Mock was called up
on to fix up" another, and just as we
were listening for him to call upon
10. Davis to prove the rest, he stated
that he was through.
The Bourbon glee club and the
martial band, accompanied by sever
al of the citizens OF Bourbon, went to
Tippecanoetown last Thursday even
ing to hear Messrs. Bender and Hess
speak, and to enliven the occasion
with such strains of vocal and instru-
mental music as was thought best.
Mr.. Hess made quite a lengthy
speech, which was followed by a short
address from Mr.. Bender. Mr.. Hess
devoted the greater portion Of his
speech to disclosing Tiiden's past
record Mr.. Bender then arose and
made few very instructive and in
telligent remarks. He spoke OF Til
den's and Hendricks past record" as
being corrupt, and if elected would
be the forerunner of some great ca
lamity. There was as many present
as could be comfortably seated. On
the way home the band stopped in
front OF Matthew Erwin's new resi-
dence and played a couple of quick
steps that brought Mr.. and Mrs. Err
win to the door. They thanked the
band and invited them to call again.
