IT must have been very funny at
Democratic meeting at Indianapolis, the
other night, to see the candidate for
Auditor General, Manson. vince when
George w. Julian, his fellow refOrmer,

The county has Republican majority
of 2.5C0, and, having faith in the Dem

fair count, the Republican leaders want
to reOrganize and win the ticket. The
above is an indication of what they may
expect if the attempt is persisted in
