Green Smith Says IL Is Only a Question oi
Majority.
LOUISVILLE, July "a. - Hon. Green
Smith, the celebrated Hoosier politician,
has been in Jeffersonville for several days
engaged as an attorney in damage suit
before Judge Ferguson. He chatted poll
tics while yesterday.
'What is your opinion of the situation
and the prospect for the Democracy in In
diaDa?" was asked.
Mr.. Smith: 81 don't think the outlook
was ever more encouraging, and / never re.
membered so much activity among the
party leaders this far in advance. Clubs
have been organized and enthusiasm dis
played everywhere"
''How do you regard the tariff sgita.
tiou?"
''The best thing that could have hap,
pened. The more the people know on that
subject the more ardent they are in sup.
port of Cleveland and revenue reform.
Every day 1 meet Republicans who are
persuaded that our principles, as declared
at st. LEfs, are the wisest aud best, and
who will not vote for Harrison and free
whisky"
what estimate do you place ON Porter's
strength as the Republican candidate for
Governor"
''Not much, and I'll tell you why. His
following is mostly imaginary. In Octo'
ber, 1880, he was elected Governor, it is
true, but consider the agencies that bought
him the office-Dudley, Dorsey and two
dollar billie. The place was purchased for
him outright and barefscedly, but they
won't do it again. Itis believed that Por.
ter will save the labor vote to Harrison
Events will disprove that as sure as No
yember comee."
All through Southern Indiana there is a
listlessness that portends harm for Harri.
son among the Republicans. A great many
of them were for Gresham for the Pres
idential nomination. When the time came
to select delegates to Chicago the Harrison
machine was brought into service aud the
selections were made to suit the politicians
and not the people. Very naturally the
latter are not bestirring themselves for the
nominee. Many of the men who formerly
contributed largely of their time and
money have publicly announced that they
will do nothing more than vote this time.
Some will not vote, while others still, es'
pecially in the agricultural districts, vel
come the opportunity to count themselves
for Gle Veland and q reduction Of the sur.

PARKERsBURG, W. Va, July "a This
afternoon Captain James Mcclure, for
eight years Prosecuting Attorney of this
county, WAS nominated by acclsmstion for
Judge of this judicial circuit by the Demo-
cratic Convention held here. The term of
Judge James Monroe jackson expires in q
few months, and Captain Mcclure, if elect
ed will be his successor. After the con-
vention Ex-Governor Jackson and Captain
Mcclure addressed the convention.
Excitement is at fever heat to- night over
the coming Democratic Congressional con-
vsntion tomorrow. The afternoon trains
brought ia delegates from the down river
counties and the hotel Hobbies are filed
with the enthusiastic Democracy. HOgg
and Jackson are busy rs bees. Both claim
to be sure of the nomination. The most
reliable figuring gives Jackson so votes
on the first ballot, Hogg 60, aud Gibson
30. Judge Jackson claims that he will be
nominated about the third ballot, and such
seems to be the general impression. The
convention will be called at IL a. IN.
Your correspondent met Congressman
HOgg this evening. He expects seventy
five votes on the first ballot. q. He says
Wood county will be solid for Jackson and
Mason county will stand solidly by him.
He does not expect any change on the
second, but if there is any it will be in his
favor. Eustace Gibson is on hand, and
working like beaver, he expects forty
tive votes on the first ballot. The Csbell
county men are just in and things, are
lively.
