None of the active managers of the party
here perhaps fully realize the extent to
which the local canvass had been affected
by the unstinted use of money here during
the week preceding the election by the
Republicans, but now that this corruption
fund has been expended and that the
Democratic disafection with the Guberna-
torial nominee has worked itself off in the
state election, the Democratic managers.
measuring exactly the situation, are tax
ing steps to reform the whole Democratic
line and throw Democratic Indiana with
renewed energy into the battle for No
vember. Mr.. English will at once
call the Committee together and
concert a plan of action for the Presidential
rally. He will be warmly supported by
Senator Mcdonald and by the whole Demo
cratic strength of this state, and he will
receive the most cordial encouragement
from the National Committee. 1t the Re-
pubIicans are wise they will not proceed
to make arrangements with Mr.. Garfield

Such a step would 90 long way in the
wrong direction. 1t may safely be sald
that every Congressional District IN the
country would feel instantly the cessa-
ton of the fast mails The step should
be taken the other way. Instead OF the
S15O,OOO, with which so much has been
achieved in past years, the Department should
have the 100000 which has been asked
for. and with which so much more can be ac-
complshed. We should push ahead steadily to-
ward faster and cheaper mails. The quicker
they are made the more they will be used
and the smaller the deficit is likely to be.
There should be no steps backward.
