in any manner whatever. Mr.. Swank
then remained at home until late in
the fall of that year QS63), when he
visited relatives at Fremont, o., his
former home. Here he remained I'M
til Feb. 1864, when he re-enlisted as a
veteran in the 10th Ohio Reg. His
father wrote him a letter at this time
urging him to come home and enlist.
On the 9th Of May, 1864, he lost his
right arm at Dallas. Georgia. He
then came home as soon as able to
his fathers in Miami county and lived
there until he was married in June,
1865, in Peru, by Justice of the Peace.
John Mitchell. Mr.. Swank continued
to live in Miami county until 1869
with the exception of three months
spent in Porter county. In the spring
of 1869 he went to Kansas and return
ing i'm the fall he took up his resi-
dence in Bourbon township in this
country where he has since continu-
ally lived.
Mr.. Swank has in his possession
three honorable discharges from the
army, the first for expiration of time
of service, the second and third for
disability. He explicitly states that
IL there ever was any indictment
against him for manslaughter that he
never heard of it. He asserts that
he ~vas never arrested on this charge,
nor on any other charges of any char :
acter whatsoever.

The Indianapolis Fraud.

The following circular issued by
George Friedley, Chairman OF the
Republican Central State Committee,
describes the character of the Demo
cratic Mass Meeting that is being
held at Indianapolis this week:
To the Republicans of Indiana:
am in receipt OF information which
/ deem entirely authentic that there
will be brought to this city on the 9th
inst, under the guise of Union sol
diers TO attend the so-called reunion,
gangs OF shoulder hitters, roughs,
professional ballot-box suffers and
repeaters from Baltimore, New York,
Louisville, st. Louis, Chicago and
other cities. The Kuklux, White
Liners, and Confederate soldiers will
be here in the character of Union
soldiers, to remain until after the
election for the purpose OF voting and
fighting in this city and other places
in the State to which they may be as
signed. Let the Republicans OF In
diana be on the look out for these
ruffians. The Democratic leaders I'M
derstand that il the Republicans car
ny Indiana in October, all prospects
for the election of Tilden and Hen
bricks will be absolutely destroyed,
and no means will be left unemployed
TO defeat US i'm this State. We desire
nothing but an honest and fair cleo
ton. With such an election we shall
certainly gain glorious victory on
the 10th OF October. Let Republic
cans everywhere be on their guard.
and let Democrats understand once
for all that the Mississippi plan sh all
not be inaugurated in Indiana.

CLERKS OFFICE, MIAMI Co.,
PERU, IND. Oct. 3. 1876.

O.. X. Chdneu, Esq:
DEAR SIR:-Yours of yesterday re-
ceived, and in reply would say: There
Is no record of amy indictment against
Mr.. Slcallk IN this office.
JESSE S. FERN, Clerk.
Now, neighbor Democrat, who has
put their foot in it this time, to use
your own choice language? Here is
statement made by a Reform"
newspaper, on the eve of election,
which is proved to be false in every
particular and malicious and coward
ly in its conception. Onlysa newspa-
per advocating Democratic reform"
would have the ef.rontery TO give cur
rency to such dishonorable SANDER
and unfounded insinuation. But the
desperate condition of the Democracy
knows no honor and respects not the
truth on the eve of an election, and
how can it's organ" rise above its
fountain head?
Few comments are needed on this
matter since the true facts of the case
are fully detailed in another column.
There it is shown that Mr.. George
W. Swank has had three honorable
discharges from the army; that at no
time was he under arrest for any
crime and that his motives for re-en-
listing were patriotic and above sus-
picion in every case. The charge
then, as made by the Democrat, of an
indictment against him for man
slaughter is wholly false and Demo
cratically malicious; and the addition
al insinuation that he enlisted to avoid
prosecution could only come from a
reform" newspaper which publicly
proclaims the fact that it will Ego to no
trouble to find out" the truth or fall
sity of any serious charges affect
ing the Integrity" Of a candidate.
These false charges are brought
out on the eve of election for the pur-
pose solely ofinjuring the prospects Of
Mr.. Swank, but we believe their COM
plete refutation will react on the
Democracy like boomerang" We
proffer to the Democrat The full bene-
fit OF its base, dishonest and dishonor-
able charges against Mr.. Swank
This last attack will gain him votes
wherever the facts become once
known.
