Thos. II. Nelson at BoonvilIe.

Correspondence of the Indianapolis Journal
BooNvtLLE, Sept 13.---A large crowd of ladies
and gentlemen, probably 600, Of the town and
surrounding country, assembled at the court
house park, Thursday night to listen to a
speech by Hon. Thomas n. Nelson. Mr.. Nelson
made an excellent speech upon the political
issues Of the day, paying considerable attention
to the tariff. Then he reviewed Cleveland's
record as Governor of New York, Hendricks
war record, compared Ca1kins to Gray, and
wound up by eulogizing Blaine. Mr.. Nelson is
a forcib1e and ready speaker, and his speech
was received by the audience with much favor.
There are about ten Irish voters in Boonyille
and Boon township, whose Democracy has here
tofore been unquestioned, who are out to day
working earnestly and diligently for Blaine and
Logan. Among the most prominent are Squire
John Q'Grady, Patrick Simon, Martin O'Laugh
lin, and others whose influence will amount to
probably Atty votes for the Republican ticket in
this county. There is some talk of putting
O'Grady on the Republican ticketfor representa-
tive and if this is done he will crowd the Demo
cratic nominee, who has 1886 majority for Han
cock to fall back on.
