INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, April 7.-At
this hour, II o'clock, the dispatches re.
ceived by the Journal, from more than
q quarter of the State, indicate the most
decided Republican gains In the town
ship elections. In the city of South
Bend there Is a gain of 400 over two
years ago, and in New Albany there is
notable gain. The latest returns show
a uniform Republican increase.
In this city the Republicans made q
mistake at their nominating cOnven-
tions and have consequently been on
the defensive in the campaign. The re-
suit was that. although the Democratic
nominee for trustee, the present incum.
bent had bad record, there was not
sufficient confidence felt in his com petit
tor to warrant the Republicans in rally.
ing to the latter's support enthusiastic
cally and he Is defeated by about 1000
votes, Democratic loss, however, of
300 from the majority two years ago.
CLEVELAND, April THE election
was quiet; full returns will not be in
until late. The Republican police COM
missioner, fire commissioner, and
water works trustees we're elec ed
by majorities estimated at from 1900
o $500. The Republicans claim the
election of twenty out Of thirty-two
councilmen, but will not have a ma.
jority In the next Council unless they
elect twenty two.
BRLDGEPoRT, Conn, April AT
the town and CITY elections here TODAY,
the Democrats elected both OF their
tickets, with the exception of Charles
E. Wilmot, Republican, who was
elected town clerk.
CALAIS, Me-, April John G.
Murchie (Rep.) was reelected Mayor
today by LAG majority. Last year he
had 463 majority. The Democrats, for
the first time III many years, elected an
Alderman.
There il no definite report Of the Gin

A Prejudiced Mina.

We should not forget that q prejudi.
ced mind may be an honest one-in.
deed prejudiced people are gsnerall y
sincere and earnest. Their chief fault
is q sort Of mental blindness or distor.
ted vision; and this is rather q
disease than sin, and they are far
more likely to be cured of 1t by gentle,
persuasive measures, or by tacit tolera-
ton, than by violent or aggressive ar-
