strongly Democratic with a majority, easily, of
5000. Ten days ago the Republicans prepared
for Blaine's appearance. ltwas arranged that
he should speak from the balcony of the Ave-
line House Opposite this hotel is the open
Court house square. Two days ago the Demo
Gratis got up an opposition meeting, to be held at
the same time as the one advertised for Blaine.
They selected spot forty feet distant from the
.kveline House balcony. The Democrats adver-
tised their meeting TO be addressed by Hen
drlcks and Senator Bayard. They didn't come.
Ihelr names were merely used TO draw crowd.
Blaine was wholly unadyised of the situation.
When Blaine entered the town he found the
place wonderfully crowded Twenty-Five
thousand persons were in the streets and
along the line of march. The carriages of
the party were driven two miles through
cheering crowds 20 the hotel where Blaine was
to speak When he came out on the balcony
there was in front of him at least one thousand
democrats. They had 70 take their position IN
advance al the arrival OF the Republicans. and
were therefore masters of the situation Blaine
began TO speak, when his appearance was
greeted with storm of yells and gruanS. lie
waited ten minutes, during which he essay ii to
speak four times, and each time he was yelled
down- Ihen he consulted with the local COM
mltteemen. Blaine was very indignant at being
placed opposite the Democratic meeting hui Il
was too late 10 mend this. "Well, let us see"
sald Blaine, TO whom this crowd belongs"
lie entered carriage and was driven 10 an open
space eight blocks away. He was followed 10y
great majority of the crowd. Not more .hau

Blaine stood upon the coachman's : box and made

up SO that he made one of the most spirited
speeches OF the canvass He WAS received with
storm OF cheers. His reception nt Fort Wayne
would have been the most brilliant OF the dayit

line of his Journey rom South BEND he had cx-
ceptionally large and enthusiastic crowds At
Elkhart he addressed SCUO at Goshen 6.h0 at

to day, Rlaine asked il they wanted 20 have
solid, free trade South and secure the votes OF
New York and Indiana 30 MS 10 bring into power
the section which had sought 10 destroy the
Government? The best proof that this State has
gone crazy upon the election is the fact that at
all the stops to-day there were long lines OF
young women wearing campaign uniforms,
marching with torches over their shoulders
with the men. In some places, as at Kendall
willie, the young women were the beauties OF the
place. The general uniform is u white duck
dress trimmed and slashed with scarlet, with
bands of red across the breast The cap IS
juunty and of red silk. These young women
march and sing, while their brothers shout To-
night the city o.. Fort Wayne appears to have
gone absolutely mad.

The Indiana Outlook.
NEW YORK, October 2lst.-Thc Slu's CORE
spOudent travelling with the Blaine party tee-
graphs from South Bend Ind. Before Blnfne's
advent the canvass here had become warm.
Both sides are very active; active, in fact,
that Blaines visit 10 the State can hardly in
crease the energy of the fight. The Republicans
pretend to be as confident of carrying the State
as they were in Ohio on Tuesday last.
One of the directors of the Republican canvass,
General Williams, who is here to take charge OF
Blaine's train, says the state can be carried by
an increase over the majority in 1850. He pre-
diets majority of 5000, but comedies loss TO
the Republicans of $500 from the Prohibition
lists and Germans. lie says the Republican
ticket will gain 1eG veteran soldiers. LOCO
young men, 1000 Irish Americans and 900 Pro
tectiOnists The 1501 net gain, added to the
Garfield majority of 1880, gives his estimate of
5000.
