The people of Indiana are intense
iy enthusiastic over the nomination
of Gen'l Harrison, for President.
And there does not seem to be a
doubt of his carrying that state by a
decided majority. One of the lead
ing Democratic Journals in the
state warns the Democracy to look
out for the result in that state, and
says, "the nomination of Gen'l Har-
rison is strong one for the Repub-
licans, and dangerous one for the
Democracy.

The Detroit Evening Journal one
day last week stated that the plurality

gan, in 1884, was only 3,29o, and
from that mis- statement proceeded to
print an article setting forth the I'm
certainty of the result in Michigan in
1888, and expressing the opinion
that the chances were that Cleveland
would carry the State over Harrison.
But the fact is, the vote for Blaine
was 49,, 500, for Cleveland 14o,S3s,
the plurality being 4a,834. The 3,ao9
of which the Journal speaks being the

ing the vote of the State in 1884, in

opinion is that it had better leave all
that kind of dirty work to the Even

expect to find the truth told in any

expected better things of the Journal.

Typhoid Fever Near Salem.

North of Salem, in the vicinity of
the fair grounds, there are a num-
her of cases of typhoid fever. In
truth, ever since early spring there
have been more or less cases of
this dread sickness in that neighbor-
hood. During thepast nine months
there have been several deaths in
thai vicinity from this cause, and
for this reason we are endeavoring
70 discover the causes. At present
four members of the Massey family
are confined to their beds with ty-
phoid fever, as also several members
of the Brooks family and others.
The Masseys contracted it while
caring for and nursing the sick ones
at Wallets, where there were nine
persons down at one time. They
are now about all recovered. The
doctors say that from the fire.
ouency with which they are called
TO this neighborhood to treat ty-
phoid patients, something should
be done looking to a thorough
drainage of that vicinage. Bad
drainage and impure drinking
water are the predisposing causes.
From the large number of persons
living near the fair grounds who
have taken this fever it is evident
that particular section needs looking
after. Some sanitary measures
should be adopted before more loss
of life results.
