WARRINGTON. d. c., Sept 20, 1885.
Undoubtedly the finest speech OF the cam
paign was made in New York last Friday nigh
by Senator Conkling. There have been many
tales circulated by the Democrats, charging the
Senator with apathy and indifference as to the
result of the campaign. His powerful presenta-
ton of the issues Of the campaign show at 8
glance that he has given the political aspects O!
the campaign close study, AID is fully prepared
with the necessary knowledge to take an active
part in the canvass. OF the purposes OF the
Republican party, and III concluding his speech
he says: 1t proposes to rebuild our CONNER
cial marine, driven from the seas by Confeder-
ate cruisers, aided and Allotted by foreign hos
tihtY. 1t proposes to foster labor, industry and
enterprise. 1t proposes to stand for education
humanity and progress. L. proposes to admin
lister the government honestly, to preserve am
ity with all the world, observing our own obi-
cations with others and seeing that others OBJ
serve theirs with us, to protect every citizen OF
whatever birth or color In his rights and equal
ity before the law, including his right to vote
and to be counted, to uphold the public credit
and the sanctity OF engagements; aud by doing
these things, the Republican party proposes to
assure industry, humanity and civilization IN
America the amplest welcome and the safest
home"

field has the intelligence, experience, and hab-
It's OF mind which eminently fit a man for the
Presidential Office" OF Gen. Arthur he saws !:
If the character, the popularity and PERSONAL
ity OF candidate can add strength to the Re-
publican cause, General Arthur Will add that
strength"
Senator Conkllng proceeds west Immediately,
and will take active part in the campaign.
Hancock's GLORIOUS dispatch is destined to
be the greatest curiosity of modern times. 1t
supplies the missing link in his record upon
finances, and places HIM in the debatsble posi-
ton OF Democratic leader jubilating over
supposed Greenback victory. The General, in
bis dispatch, shows considerable anxiety Of
mind, and bis readiness to snatch at anything
that savors OF Democratic victory is proof that
he s not so cure OF his own election as his
friends try 10 make their followers believe
Wm II. Barnum has endeavored to soothe the
poor mans feelings, and let him down from his
high pitch Of enthusiasm, by circular, charg-
ing fraud in Maine. This charge, coming from
a man famed in "mule BUYING" does not sur
prise honest men. lie has never been known
to deal in anything but fraud, lit his political
stock in trade.
Hon. Fred. Douglass, Marshal of the District,
has returned to the city from Indiana, where he
has been busily engaged for some weeks past
campaign speeches. and it is said by

Republican cause. The Marshal is thoroughly
with Indiana politics, and his views
possess unusual value. lie says the Republic
cans have excellent prospects OF carrying the
state-that their canvass is much superior to
The Democrats, and is having excellent effect
lie says the Republican chances are two to one
better than the Democrats. Marshal Douglass
returns 20 Indiana in few days and will re-
main until the campaign closes
