First no election of United States Senator, as fill
busterng WILL in certain contingencies be resort
ed To by both sides to delay an election on the
contested election cases; second, the election of
TWO persons as senator's one by the Democratic
majority OF the Senate and Democratic minority
OF the House. and the other by the Republican
majority of the House and Republican minority
Of the Senate While the Democrats are talking
about bslldozing and violence to secure United
States Senator the Republicans have compiled a
statement which shows that the full measure Of
the Republican victory In Indiana is not shown
by the vote on the State ticket. Ii becomes more
apparent when the congressional vote is analyzed
Two years ago the Democrats polled for their
congressional candidates 248,521 votes, and the
Republicans for their congressional candidates,
23S, ,433 votes, leaving the Democratic plurality

as follows: Republican, 23S, ,317; Democratic,
227 ,36S; Republican plurality l0,954. Here is
Republican gain In two years Of 81 ,042. IL will

The memorial arch to the soldier and sailor
dead recently dedicated at Hartford, Conn,
is one Of the unique monuments of the coun-
try. 1t is out of the regulation style. 1t is
built across the end Of a stone bridge that
leads into the city park and to the state cap
itol. The arch is so feet span and springs
from two massive round towers, each of
which is 60 feet in circumference and GO feet
high. Above the archway, about 40 feet
from the ground, a sculptured frieze about
IT'S feet in length and 6 feet 6 inches in
breadth runs around the monument or these
towers it has been said: "They seem like two
huge s~entinels guarding the bridge, or mighty
standardbearers holding aloft q mighty ban
ner on which is emblazoned the deeds Of the
men of Hartford who died for their country
on land and sea in the war which kept the
Union whole.
The memorial is executed in Connecticut
brown stone, similar to that Of the old stone
bridge with which it is connected. The gen.
eral surface is rock-faced, in keeping with
the simplicity Of the design, but relieved by
buff-colored Ohio stone dressings; and the
Erieze, which is Of light-colored terra Gotta,
MATCHES the color Of the Ohio stone.
