Major Grubbs AT PIainfield,

Correspondence of the indianapolis Journal!
PLAINFIELD, Nov. "A large Republican
meeting was held here yesterday. Large delega-
tons from the surrounding villages and town
ships were here in carriages, in wagons on
horseback, and on foot, to make the reception
to Major George w. Grubbs monster affair
1t was a direct answer to the handful of Demo
Gratis who listened to the wall of Congressman
Matson a few days ago The procession was the
largest and most complete of the campaign.
Major Grubbs spoke full two hours and was lis
tened to with the closest attention, with here
and there hearty round of applause as he
showed up the thinness of the claims of the
Democratic party, and especially of his opponent

From a letter written to this Office it is learned
that Shoemaker was devoted member of the

exemplary soldier. He died about four hours
after he was shot, and before his death gave his
Bible, stained by his gn blood, to a comrade,
requesting him to take it to his wife and family

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE.
A Decided Prohibitionist.

To the Editor of the indianapolis journal:
There is very unkind insinuation in a short
paragraph in Fridays Journal Read between
the lines, you mean to say that DR.. Thompson is
not Prohbitionist. Have you any authority
for thisl He is not working prohibition much
this year, but no one can point to the time or
place that he renowned his faith. The mere
fact that he is in the Democratic party this
year is not conclusive when it is known that he
left the Republican party because of personal
difficulty with a leading Republican or two and
because he could not be nominated for Congress
in 1874. He voted against the Baxter bill in
1873 because it was not prohibitory enough to
suit him and had not been an ssue in the can
vass. He was nominated for the Senate
over Judge Martindae, in 1872, because
he was better temperance man
than Martndale, and he has never
publicly renowned the faith of thirty years ago
He was, in that campaign, more in demand as
Prohibition speaker than any other man in the
State, going into all parts of the State. Such
plodding Prohibitionists as DR.. Brown were no
where, compared with his fiery style. l remem-
her u meeting we had in the old Baptist Church,
corner of Maryland and Meridian, that year,
which was addressed in chief by visiting breth
rem, but the people, seeing Dr. Thompson in the
audience, would not leave until the meeting
topped off by one of his characteristic speeches.

Correspondence of the Indianapolis Journal
HARTFORD CITY, Nov. Yesterday, at the
grand rally given by the Republicans, was the
most perfect demonstration of popular feeling
ever witnessed by our people. Never was there
a rally here in which the arrangements were
more symmetrical nor their execution more sat
isfactory. The delegations were somewhat de-
layed by the rain, yet they poured in from Bluff
ton, Montpelier, Dundee, Cumberland, Wheel
ing, Migrove, Dunkirk, Trenton and Knox
township, Jay county, until our city was filed
with people. A procession was formed which re
quired an hour to pass given point. The pro-
cession marched to the ir-ground and listened
to some excellent speeches from Oliver L. Morton
and Gen. W. H. Gibson, of Ohio. The Button
glee club was present and furnished some excel
lent music.
Last night at the opera hall, which was almost
crowded to suffocation the people were ad
dressed by Judge E. r. Wilson and General Glib
son. The speech of General Gibson was very
able, and he held the close attention of his audi
ence.

Congressman Lowry's Ruffianism.

To the Editor Of the Indianapolis Journal:
am not very good writer, but l can say
anyhow that know what is right" and know
that Congressman Lowry, from Fort Wayne,
acted unbecoming to gentleman and states
man. His conduct was contemplate Blaine is
gentleman, and so is General Logan Both
conducted themselves while in our State as
noble and educated men. and won thousands of
friends irrespective of politics. Mr. Blaine is
an Eastern man, and people there have often
heard about Western rufians and rowdies. Mr.
Blaine can tell his friends at home that he has
seen the boss rowdv of Fort Wayne the Hon. IN
Lowry. If presidential candidate cannot speak
in Indiana without being insulted it lisa shame for
our noble State, and if the good and respectable
Democrats of Fort Wayne take my advice they
will not vote for this man Lowry, who headed a
gang of rowdies, saying: Don't let this man
Blaine speak. Cheer for Cleveland and Hen
bricks" How would he have liked it if Cleve-
land had been at Fort Wayne and Republican,
with some other ruffans, should have shouted at
the top of his voice: Don't let this man Cieve-
land speak; cheer for Blaine and Logan" N.Y.
self Democrat, but have done with the
party. At my house there are four men, each
one Democrat; but each one will vote this time
for Blaine and Logan, because we are sick of a
party which allows its represen tatives to insult
the most noble and inoffensive citizen and states
man who ever visited our State.
