THE STATE PRESS.
The Logansport Pharos saws:

Treasurer of State Fleming was In the city a
few hours to-day and paid the Pharos pleas
ant call. Mr.. Fleming has been in i'll health
for some months, but he has fully recuperated
and is looking better and feeling better now
than he has for a long time. He is In good
trim, physically, to enter the political contest
OF 1885,, and some excellent work may be ex-
pected of him. Mr.. Fleming is without doubt
the best political organizer In Indiana to-day
the management OF the campaign in this state
need not be doubted. He takes rosy view of
the political situation. He says that Indiana
will certainly maintain her position in the
Democratic column, but that the size of the
majority will depend largely on the actions OF
the Chicago and Cincinnati Conventions. MI.
Fleming is Hendricks man, and would pre-
fer the nomination of the "favorite son" before
all others, but is not very Sanguine of that
that gentleman's success at Cincinnati. After
Hendricks he regards Seymour as the strong
est man. He takes no stock in Tilden. Re
ierring TO this Congressional District, Mr..
Fleming expresses the opinion that the race
Is by no means a hopeless one for the Demo-
Gratis. He thinks strong candidate could
win as against any OF the men on the other
side-and the opinion is based on a full review
and consideration OF the figures. Mr.. Fleming
is right. If the Democrats nominate a strong
man In this District they can elect him, and
the Pharos feels certain that 1t will be done.
AT any rate, the RAIDS may put it down as an
undOubted fact that they will not get Rep
resenJative in Congress from this District
without a struggle, and hard one. Mr.. Flem-
ing will be renominated for Treasurer of State
without opposition, and hence his visit to Lo-
ganspOrt to-day has no political significance
He has no fences to look after.
The Sullivan True Democracy says:
The name of Napoleon B. Taylor, Esq, OF
Indianapolis, will be presented to the Demo
cratic State Convention to assemble June g.
1880, for the nomination for Judge of the Su
preme Court, from the Third Supreme Judicial
District. Mr.. Taylor has been Endorsed by the
legal profession of this State in a manner that
and capable, aud should the honor of the nom.
| ination fall upon him, 1t will be received by
the people of this part of the State in the most
truest and purest type; and as Judge of the
| Supreme Court would discharge the duties OF
| that responsible position creditably to himself
and honorably toward the people of this State
| The Wabash Courier says:
Hon. John Lee of Charlottesville, would
make a mighty good Lieutenant Governor
| and it would only be rewarding an old Demo
| the Office upon him. He is competent and
| worthy.
The Brownstown Banner of last week SAYS:
Hon. Frank Landers candidate for the Dem
| ocratc nomination for Gov ernor, reached our
town at 30 o'clock last evening. Immediate
ly after his arrival the Court House was lighted
| up, the bell rung and the band brought out,
and In a short time the commodious court
room was filled with people, including many
who were in town attending Court. Mr.. Lam
| ders was brought from the Etna House, and
| introduced by Judge Ralph Applewhite. He
delivered forcible speech, which had the
ring of the true Democratic metal In 1t, and
| which was received W tn unbounded satisfac-
| ton by all who heard 1t. Mr.. Landers is a
man OF great earnestness and statesmanlike
| ability, a profound thinker and fore BILE
/ speaker, and should he secure the nomination
/ for Governor, may count upon jackson Coun-
| ty for majority OF from 900 to 200.
The Warsaw National Union says:
| 1t thunders all along the line that Freeman
Kelley, of DeKalb County, has an eye upon
4 the nomination for Lieutenant Governor or
4 the Democratic ticket. Should Mr.. Kelley re-
ceiye the nomination, look out for q roarinl
canvass. He will pour heavy grape shot and
| canister into the Republican party, and be
| fore the campaign is ended he will have dustes
the jacket of many a Radical stumper.
The New Harmony Register says:
| Streight is the old man OF the sea on Indians
Republican shoulders. 1t won't do to put hin
| up for Governor, yet they can't get rid of hin,
! He has bari, and is backed by the FEEDER
| ring at Indianapolis.
The Evansville Courier says:
The returns rom the city and town election
| throughout the State indicate that the Demo
| cratic majority in Indiana next fall-f tn
Cincinnati Convention does not handicap u
! with a dead we1ght-will not be less than $500
or 5000. With Hendricks for President w
would carry the State easily by $500.
