WHAT MISS LAURA REAM SAYS ABOUT IT.
THE GENERAL SENTIMENT.
Miss Laura Resm, in letter to the Gin
cinpad Commercial of yesterday, gives ex-
pres sion to the general sentiment of this
state when she says: From Republican
standpoint the Journal has made great
mistake in publishing a phonographic re-
port OF Uncle Jimmy Williams "open-
ing speech. While some portions of that
speech are not up TO the average standard
OF composition, there are others so much
above that suspicion of gsrbIing is in
evitable. The report is known TO have
been correct, but q few dsshes and head
lines can put the truth in bad light.
The publication is not in character with
the Journal management, which knows
the difference betwee illiterscy and ignor-
aDce Loo well to insult the average public
intelligence. The State Central Committee
Is rather suspected of making "Uncle
Jimmy's" speech campaign document,
against the better judgment of the Journal
editors. The policy, by wnomsoever die
tated, is
VERY sHoRT-sIGHTED.
So far from the knowledge of books being
all there is OF learning, it is generally ad-
mitted that man is of little practical ac-
count until he unlesrns the most of his
-
point of view, and it is doubly applicable
to politics, so-called statesmansnip, in
which an experimental Knowledge OF men
and affairs Is the main req uisife. To this
intimate acquaintance with affairs and
men, politician, TO be successful, must
join the merit of personal integrity and
| reasonable show OF judgment In the man
sgement OF his private business. Such a
man Is the Hon. James d. Williams, DEM
ocratic candidate for governor of Indiana,
and 1t Is neither wise nor proper to hold
him up to ridicule. His majority for Con-
gress was overw helmingly large, and he is
better known throughout the state than all
the men on both party tickets thrown to-
gether.
THE VERY MINUIIE OF REFORM
into which be enters will increase his pop
ularity. The men at work in the harvest
field are not apt to waste much sympathy
upon the members of Congress sweltering
In the Capitol for the lack of lemonade,
which "Uncle Jimmy" gently insinuates
is not always a cooling beverage. Aud so
| with the history of the pen knives, and
other Congressional perquisites. IL makes
interesting reading in the excess of stilted
campaign speeches, and was keenly rel-
ished by the enthusiastic crowd at Salem,
which greeted his return. The Journal
has not published speech which has been
more generally and carefully read. On the
3lst OF this month Mr.. Williams is to have
grand reception by his neighbors and
friends, at his home near Wheatlsnd. In
the meantime, be is expected to fill sp-
pointments in different paris OF the state.
A list will be arranged to-day. The DEM
ocrats are perfectly confident of success.
Some claim the stale ticket by thirty
thousand; the least ssDguine calculation
is twenty Thousand. The canvass, so far,
has not been very spirited. AS rule, the
| Democracy is the more enthused.

CHAPTER V
GOV. TILpRN's WAR ON THE CANAL PLUM
DERERS.

Towards the middle of March, 1875 it became gen.
orally accepted as a fact in political circles, that
Governor Tiden was preparing to begin vigorous
and effective campaign against the canal ring, anu
that he would shortly address message to the legs-
lature on the subject. The Times thus anticipates
the governors action:
IN. Y. Times March II, 1871
The governors messaae the canals is said to be
nearly ready, and it is reported to be a document
calculated to spread dismay through the ranks Of
the state the canal ring has been steadasy opposed
by him in the past, and he has certainly nothing
but hostility to expect from it in future His (Til-
den'O natural antipathy to administrative
corruption, will therefore be strength
ened this occasion, etc. etc
10. The Albany correspondent of the Times thus
describes the effect of Governor Tildens famous mes
sage to the Legislature. on the Canal frauds
From the n. Y. Times, March 20, 1851
ALBANY, March 10, 1875.
The campaign against the Canal Ring Is fairly be-
gum and the first advance upon that stronghold o
fraud and corruption was made by Governor Tilden,
who sent his anxiously looked-for message on this
subject to both Houses of the Legislature o-day
The document strong one but is not to be deemed
exhaustive on the subject. perfect state Of panic
exists among all those who have been and are in
yolved in the matter Since the contents of the
sage have become known, il is everywhere admitted
that no such assault had before been made Oh
this Ring. and that its momentum was too great ant
the same day the following editorial comments ap
peared:
GOV. TILDEN AND THE CANAL RING.
The brevity of the governors message in regard Il
the canals may be surprise to the public. 1t

somewhat intricate subject, will surprise nobody
