INDIANAPOLIS, Aug. q, 1876. !
DEAR SIR Il have now finished
a tour Of six counties in Indiana,
and feeling that any reliable in
formation from this State will in
terest you, I write.
In the first place the canvass is
we'll conducted. the people are en-
thusiastic and determined, and the
old war spirit thoroughly aroused,
and if it were not for one thing we
could rest certain of victory in
October. There is an Iudepend-
ent party in this State, confined,
it is true, to few counties, but
formidable, aud it will defeat Gen
eral Harrison. There is but one
way to overcome this movement
The leaders of the Independents
are poor, needy and in debt. They
must be lectured to documents be
placed in their hands that they
may be convinced of their folly.
A bloody shirt campaign with
money, and Indiana is safe A
financial campaign and no money,
and we are beaten.
The National Committee has
dcne nothing for Indiana. Alone
they are fighting this battle, and
bravelv but unless the National
Committee wakes up aud does its
duty to you, to the party and the
county, defeat is certain in o.
! tober.
I never in all my life felt so GER
tain that l was doing my duty as
in this contest, and my desire tol
success, my dear sir, is my only
excuse lOr writing.
Your Friend.

COMMENTS OF THE - sEss8zE7EEsE=s555z
Tha-lattar F7iET We P0Onsh
elsewhere in the Sentinel this
morning from General J. Xii
patrick, the distinguished republic
can orator sent out by the repub-
Iican national committee to this
State from New York, to Governor
Hayes, the republican candidate
for the Presidency, is a document
so characteristic, aud so clearly
develops the rotteDness Of the re-
publican party, that its publication
to the world is deemed a plain
duty that no patriotic citizen
should shrink from. 1t develops
several facts disgraceful in the ex-
treme to the leaders of the party,
Gov. Hayes included.
General Kilpatrick's letter to
Governor Hayes shows that the
radical power in this State is
already defeated, and the effort is
to be made to defrnud the will OF
the people by corrupt means.
1t shows the estimation in which
the greenback men are hold by the
republican party, "poor bankrupt
set" that can be bought with
money and changed by lying re-
publican documents.
It shows that Governor Hayes,
the spotless, incorruptible states
man, who is the candidate of the
republican party, can be APP
,proached in IL familiar way with
corrupt propositions.
1t shows that General Harrison
is to secure an election by the use
of money. General Fitzpatrick is
one of the leaders of the ring, and
is constrained to tell Hayes how
the republican national committee,
lin not furnishing money, is neg
Iecting the opportunity to carry
the State.
It shows that the lowest po-
litioal debanchery is to be used tC
carry the State of Indiana for
Harrison. General Fitzpatrick has
been in close communion with the
central committee here. He is
working at their bidding, and, &C
cording to the Journal, he is doing
effective work. The Journal, on
his arrival in the city, gave him
the fullest endorsement. He there
fore represents the views of the
party. ,
The letter further shows that
two of the basest means used by
the republicans in carrying the
elections, the bloody shirt and
money, are the only means that
can now save the State. The
bloody shirt argument has been
used effectually by General Kill
patrick, and his friends say that
he is accomplishing wonders, a.
witness the following from the
Journal:

other in giving him a patriots
welcome. To describe the Gen
erals speech would be a useless
task; it must be heard to be APP
preciated. 1t will be sufficient to
say that it was one of the most
effective, eloquent Campaign
speeches ever delivered in this
town, and has done us great good.
1t has aroused again the old spirit
Of 81 and So. Such cheers as
went up from the vast audience
for Harrison and Hayes and Kill
patrick, as the gallant soldier and
brilliant orator sat down, were
never heard before in Bedford.
But General Fitzpatrick turns
away mournfully from the ovation,
aud reports from here at head
quarters to Hayes himself, after
seeing the central committee, that
war speeches alone will not do,
but that bloody shirt and
money" would do the work. War
speeches for democrat soldiers, we
presume. and money to purchase
the poor bankrupt greenbackers. "
Citizens of Indiana, voters of
the proud old Hoosier State, can
the corrupt means be used by the
radical party by you to support a
man who is acknowledged to be
defeated? Can you give your sup
port to a Presidential candidate
who can be Familiarity addressed
by his friends with such PROPOSE
tons? Independents of Indiana,
you who have been battling
against the money power, are you
willing for the republican ring

sell your poverty for so much :
II anything more insulting has
ever been conceived 10 the man
