we nave lost the state and every R0puDllcan
have seen since the Maine election is more
than ever to win the victory. |
We shall get more work out of our people |
in every way in consequence of it. 1t is
the Bull Run of the contest. Let US win
at Appomattox. I am somewhat disap-
pointed but not discouraged. You will !
have more help in consequence of it. !
Push the fight in Indiana. Very truly |
yours, j. A. GARFIELD
Hon. S. W. Dorsey, 241 Fifth Ave., N. Y.
The next letter shows that Garfeld's di
rection to "push the fight in Indiana"
was not unheeded. 1t is as follows:
MENTOR, O., Sept. 1S. 1SSO-HoN. S. W.
DORSEY, indianapolis Sir: do not |
know that in my letter of to-day I spe- |
officially answered your inquiry of the
adopted in our campaign in consequence
of the disappointment in Name. Clearly,i in
my judgment, we should push the policy we
have already adopted for Indiana with the
utmost vigor. Iwlsh you would write to
Governor Foster stating your apprehen-
sions about special efforts to be made in
Ohio, and giving him your grounds. I
will do the same another way. We have
every reason for hope and hard work.
Since writing the aboveI have received
letter from Captain Henry, informing
me that men are reported on the railroads
every day with the address of some Demo
crat and asked to be let off at
the station nearest his place. Do you
know the meaning of this? These rascals
must be watched at every point.
How are you being sustained by our
friends in tn East? am glad you are
moving our headquarters into the imme-
diate field of action. j. A. GARFIELD.
HOW IT WAS PUSHED.
And the following letter from Levi P.
Morton, now minister to France, but dur
ing the campaign treasurer of the national
campaign committee, shows how it was
pushed:
