The Indiana programme.
detroit Free Press.1


Some republican papers claim that the re-
publicans are sangulne of carrying the legis-
lature of Indiana this fall, and thus securing
the gain of United States senator. The
democrats in the state have little fear of this,
and express great confidence in their ability
to carry the state by majority so large as TO
bring with it democratic legislature. They
do not close their eyes 10 the fact that repub-
ncan serrymandering has made the election
of democratic legislature task of no in
considerable magnitude. 1t was calculated
at the time of the last legislative apportion-
ment that the districts were so arranged that
with a democratic majority of less than
twenty thousand in the state the legislature
would be safely republican. They also re-
member that although they carried the state
handsomely in October, 1875, the congress
sional districts were so gerrymandered that
they elected less than one-third of the repre-
sentatives in congress. But they propose to
give little extra push this year and over
come these obstacles

In 1868 entries were made in only IA of
the states and territories, as follows: Cali
fornia, Colorado, Dakota, Illinois, Iowa,
Kansas, Missouri, Michigan, Minnesota, Ne
braska, Ohio, Oregon, Wisconsin and Wash
ington. No entries were made in any of the
southern states until 1866. and in Louisiana
not until 1867. The entries for the first half
of this year nearly equal those of any whole
year since the panic with fair prospect of
exceeding any of the years that have proceed
ed it. The change in the tide of emigration
at different periods is quite noticeable. In
1875 Colorado received S25 entries, and in
the first half of 1878 there were 4,12S entries.
Kansas shows in the same period a gain
from 2, 1856 in 1875 to $500 in 1873 Mime
sofa has gained from 2,034 to 1862 entries,
and Washington from 300 to $50
entries. California, under the influence
of the general prostration in the
east, ran up from 1,521 entries in 1873 to
3,400 in 1875, but fell off to l, 746 entries in
1877 and 923 during the first half OF the
present year. Michigan, Wisconsin and
Alabama show a great decline, which is
doubtless due to the fact that most of
the desirable lands in those states have been
taken.
In the above statement no account is taken
of presumption entries or cash sales, but
these, it is believed, will be offset by the
claims abandoned under the homestead act
The settlements on the lands granted to rail-
roads are not taken into account in the
above tables for lack of sufficient data. In
the state of Texas the tide Of immigration
has poured in freely, hut as all the lands be-
long to the state the general government has
no record OF the emigration thither.
Each entry in the above table probably in
dicates the addition of at least five persons
to the population of the locality. This
movement of non producers from the east
to the new states and territories, where they
become producers. is regarded as an essen
tial element in the restoration Of general
prosperity in the country. ..4.--....s...
