Dut the tarll1 question Will proDa-
bly, be treated with justice to all oul
interests and people by some such
bill as Mr.. Eaton's. Ibelieve thai
a commission OF intelligent experts
representing both the govetnmen
and American industries, will sug'
gest tariff measures that will relieve
us Of any crudities and inconsistent
cies existing in our present law
and confirm to us a system which
will be judicious, just, harmonious
and incidentally protective as wei
as stable in IFS effect, | am, very

COCK.
New YORK, October 15,-The
following is Gov. Randolph's letter
to Gen. Hancock on the tariff ques'
ton;
M0rristo,0n, October II, 1880,
My Dear General My attention
is called to-day to an interview, OIL
a reported interview, had with you
by person representing the Pater-
son "Guardian," of this State. As
I read the report it seems TO me
you were very imperfcctly under
stood or very indifferently reported.
came to this conclusion because
Of my knowledge of your views up
on the tariff question. The report
does you injustice the subject is
one which our manufacturing friends
are very solicitous about and very
properly so, | regret that your
views upon the tariff question. as [
understand them to be, had not
found fuller expression in your let
ter Of acceptance. Ifthe misrepre-
of your tariff views con-
tinue would it not be wise and just
to take some occasion to put your
self right ? Very truly yours,
THEO, f. RANDOLPH.

AN ADDRESS To VOTERS.
The Democratic executive COM
mittee have issued the following ad
dress
70 the Democratic and Mdepen-
lent Voters Of Indiana : The re-
suit of the election last Tuesday is
4 deep disappointment to us all.
The extent Of the success which the
Republican party has achieved in
this State is as much surprise to
the Republicans as it is to the
Democrats, and proves that the ma
orty of the Republican party were
rs ignorant of the means which their
leaders employed as
we were. The temporary loss of
our State is calamity that time
will enable us to retrieve, but the
injury which our free institutions
will sustain resulting from the
'raunds and corruption practiced by
he Republican leaders to secure
heir triumph is incalculable, The
causes which enable the Republi-
IAN party to succeed in the election
ire now plainly the partial success
If their scheme to Africanize our
State for political purposes, the cor
'upt use of money for the purpose
If obtaining votes, the importation
md use Of repeaters, protected by
leputy marshals and the aid de-
lived by them from the use OF the
Federal machinery of elections I'M
Ter the pretense ofthe supervising
lie election Of members OF Con-
,ress.
In the presidential election we
viii not have to encounter these for
:es to the same extent as in our
State election. The corruption fund
vii have to be divided among many
States. Their repeaters will be at
lome, and those of them who were
discharged from the arrest of the
Ieputy marshals OH straw-bail will
lot be likely 10 make their appear
nee in our State soon again. We
hall have no Federal marshals or
federal voting to contend against.
We are thoroughly united in our
councils; whatever our adversaries
nay say to the contrary is untrue.
We, therefore, call upon you not
0 relax ally of your efforts. Put
p,v life and enerov into vour coun-
