The Democratic State Committee of
Indiana met at indianapolis Friday and
issued the following address:
10 ne Democrats Of Indiana The
result of the election last Tuesday is a
deep disappointment to us all. The extent
Of the success which the Republican party has
achieved In this state is as much a surprise to
the Republicans NJ to the Democrats and
proves that the majority of the Republican
party was as ignorant Of the means which
their corrupt leaders were employing as we
we're The temporary loss of our state il
calamity that time will enable us to retrieve,
but the injury which our free institutions
will sustain, resulting from the frauds and
cOrruptons practicod by the Republican
leaders to secure their triumph, il incalcula-
DIc The causes which enabled the Repnbli-
can party to succeed i'll the late election are
nov plainly
First The partial success of their scheme
TO Africanizc our State for political purposes.
Second. The corrupt use Of money for the
purchase of votes.
Third. The importation and use of repeat

Fourth. Ihs aid derived by them from the

under the pretence of supervising the election
ni members of Congress.
In the Presidential election we will not have
to encounter these forces to the same extent

fund will have to be divided among other
other states, their repeaters will be at home.
and those Of them who We're discharged from
arrest by deputy marshuls ON straw bail will
not be likely to make their appearance in our
state soon again.
We shall have no Federal marshals or
Federal machinery to contend against.
We are thoroughly united in our councils,
and whatever our adversaries may say to the
contrary IL untrue.
We therefore call upon you not to relax any
ol your efforts Put new life and energy into
Your county and township organizations, and
take all measures in your power to bring out
yonr full strength to the polls. The same

November, will secure to liz the State. The
average majority against us at the large cleo

that figure. This majority can, and in our
opinion will be overcome in the Presidential
election A change of three votes in each
precinct will accomplish it.
Remember you have leader in this contest
who never sounds a retreat, and he commands
an army that never snrrenders.

hundred or more leaders of the party
were at the rooms of the State Committee
Friday. The feeling to continue the
fight was unanimous, and theopinion that
Hancock could carry Indiana in November
was universal. The Democrats have
recovered from their defeat of Tuesday
already, and are aroused and full of fight.
Leading men from Democratic couoties
which gave largo Republican gains on
Tuesday, earnestly aud vehemently aver
that those counties will redeem themselves
in November. Letters and kilograms are
pouring in from all parts of the State
from the Democratic masses, demanding
of their leaders not to delay an instant in
renewing the campaign, and asserting
that there are many men in their respec-
tive regions who will vote for Hancock
who did not vote for Landers.
The Democratic leaders feel greatly
encouraged at such bright prospects only
three days after such defeat. The cam
paign will be begun at once, and pushed
forward with earneblness and vigor to the
end. The word mas gone out along the
line. There is astonishing confidence in
the rank and file They do not even
doubt that Hancock cen carry Indiana.
