SOMETHING WRONG.
When you see men out Of employment you NAV
know there is trouble somewhere. God wrote IL
in the early days for race that by the sweat of
his brow man shall earn his bread. But it did
seem that there was coupled with that divine SEN
ument that perhaps man should have cnance
TO earn his bread by the sweat of his brow, but it
Is not so now with all. There are some that can
not get employment to earn their bread. have

graveyard across the way. The stimulant OF labor,
the stmulant of enterprise, of lie OF activity, is
dead. IL Is locked up in the Nations treasury.

a few other matters about which probably ought

SUCCESS ASSURED.
Now, my fellowcitizens 1 think can say to you
this afternoon that our cause will be successful
this year. We have a candidate for President that
has borne himself with distinguished credit and
honor in the high Offices which he has hitherto
filed, He has borne himself with great credit as
Chief Magistrate of the greatest State in this UEiOn
his administration. He is to-day supported By
the ablest men of the Republican party. The Ia
dependents of New York, Connecticut, Masslchu.
setts and OF Indiana say he is worthy their sup
port. They have many reasons for that support.
There are better assurances of good government |
OF American protection everywhere and under all
circumstances. If Governor Cleveland be made
President instead of James q. Blaine and with
sSTh s05e., zeal support tb rSdIsCn TO the
favor of his election, can enter;eip no
doubt OF the result paper the other day found

eight years ago.; did not desire it at Chicago
when, with absolute unanimity, il was conferred
upon me; but now that have been nominated
and have accepted the nomination. come before
you my fellow citizens of Indiana, and say to you
that my hearts earnest desire is to receive your
support. Will be glad 10 receive every Democrats
support. will be very proud of the support OF
my Republican friends of my Greenback and Iu-
dependent friends, and when IL is all counted up

it's going 10 be decided majority in November

my faith only, have right to ask you to try
