The Indiana State sentinel. [volume] (Indianapolis) 1868-1895, 1879-10-22

Republican conspirators are now discuss
ing the situation in Indiana. They want it,
and have determined to have it if foul me ans
can by any possibility accomplish the result.
The Republican party even now Is we'll
organized in Indiana. Noses have been
counted and the leaders know that the party
is in the minority by several thousands.
But Indiana is the home of Hendricks, who
is very generally regarded as the statesman
most likely to receive the Democratic nomi-
nation for president, and, as a consequence,
the mightIest efforts will be put
forth by the Republican party to
capture the State. To accomplish
this Republican tactics will be put to their
severest test Frauds will multiply in geo.
metrical progression. Frauds will peep DER
frauds, and lies on lies arise National banks
will be assessed, and Government employees
will be compelled to contribute to the cor
ruption fund. Hayes administration will
be utilized, and John Sherman will not
hesitate hers, as in Louisiana, to barter Fed
eral o.nces for perjury. In ad .ition to all
this the negrC exodus will be a factor. In
diana is to be Africanizsd in the interest of
the Republican party. The agents are al
ready at work. The boom is inaugu-
rated. The tide is to be turned
from Kansas to Indiana. Some have ar.
rived. others are coming. and still more are
to pour in. This movement is not designed
to promote the welfare of the Southern
negro or the white laborers of Indiana. 1t
is as devoid of philanthropy as hell is of
virture. It is the last resort OF set OF
political DIES perados who would bury a mill
ion of Southern blacks in Indiana soil il
thereby they could succeed in wrestling the
State from Democratic supremacy. They
would impoverish every white laborer ia
the State, and compel him to work for a
nickel day IN competition with negro la
Dor, if thereby a partisan triumph
could be secured. In view of these sur
roundings, what will Democrats do2 Will
they at once take the alarm and organize?
Will they invite defeat by supineness? The
Sentinel has not hesitsted to urge upon the
attention of Democrats the great importance
of action. While the Democrats are inert,
the Republicans ara active and wide awake.
We have no disposition to magnify the
danger; indeed we regard. it quite sufficient
grsmme of the Republican party. With its
triumph in Ohio it will be more than ever
aggressive. Assuming that the people have
Endorsed its louisiana, Florida and
South Carolina methods. it will
not hesitate to inaugurate them in every
Northern State. with even more impudent
boldness. The negro exodus scheme fore
shows their policy, and should put Dsmo-
Gratis on their guard. Democrats should
organize in every county in the State. There
should be entire harmony in their counsels;
there should be in these preliminary meet.

determination by concert of action to
counterfeit the Vaccinations of the enemy.
We know whereof we speak in giving these
timely words of warning. A fierce campaign
is in the near future. Indiana is Democratic,
but stroDghclds have been captured by
eggressiveness when the opposing force has
been supine.
