which says: "The Democratic party
in this State shows more vitality than
| [ have ever seen before since my COM
| ing here in 1854 In our town of
| $4,000 inhabitants we have already
| nine Cleveland and Hendricks clubs
and three more organizing. Since my
return from the East L find the Cleve-
land sentiment in the West stronger
than I expected. I think Indiana
certain, Ohio probable, and a fair
chance in Wisconsin; while in Hi
nois there are many cautious and con-
serYative men who believe that the
State will be carried for Harrison and
| the National ticket" From Adrian,
Mich, accompanying large order for
Grover Cleveland's public record :;
eve don't want them for defensive
purposes, but the reverse. We shall
get large share of the Republican
vote and will elect Col. Elredge to
Congress. The time is past when any
one can carry Michigan" The Pro-
| hibitionists are active and numerous.
Among the notices of Cleveland and
Hendricks clubs received is one from
Vincennes, Ind, of 400 msnbers,
chiefly mechanics, over 100 of whom

Cleveland and Hendricks 1900 ma
iority, an increase of 300 Indiana
| Cleveland clubs report from Oaktown,
Freelandsville, Edwardport, Bicknell,
