A single fact is worth thousand argu.

Company's contract by British iron found

his own name at $50. Thus the broker makes

facturers on this contract is that much money

for this job, amounting to over 100000, is
taken from American workmen and given to

should be increased so as TO keep all such

Observations of a Wealthy German.

Dir. Isenmeyer, a wealthy German OF st.
Louis and father.in-law OF DR.. Wehrman, of
this city, has just arrived from Europe, where
he has been for the past four months. He says
tits surprising the interest Germany 10 eviuc.
ing in this American election. He took occasion
to visit while there large number OF manu-
featuring establishments which are building
largely on the hopes OF Cleveland's election.
The manufacturers there seemed very much
surprised that Mr.. Isenmeyer, being German,
was not going to vote for Cleveland. from the
fact that his election would be such an advant-
age to Germany. Mr. Isenmeyer says that if
the American people could only realize the in
terest that the European countries are taking

Gen. Ben Harrison.

CHANDLER OR BYNUM.

II the question of re-electing Mr.. Bynum to
Congress could be presented to the people Of
this district as business question, and en-
irely free from partisan politics, he would be
overwhelmingly defeated.
Mr. Bynum does not represent the business
interests of the district. This city especially
Is deeply interested in the development Of
manufactures, in building up those we have,
and getting more Our manufacturing in
terests are already large, but they ought to
become much larger: Mr.. Bynum is bitterly
opposed to the policy of protection under
which our present manufactures have grown
up, and under which alone they can be ex-
rected to prosper. He favors free trade, and
free trade would knock the manufacturing
industries of this city higher than kite.
Mr. Bynum's advocacy of free trade has led
tim to make some very injurious attacks on
American industries in general, and those of
this city in particular. In his Atlanta speech
be grossly slandered the city's manufactures
and its workingmen, saying our factories
were closed four months in the year, and our
workmen out of money and out Of credit as
long. He drew a picture of an indianapolis
factory hands wife supporting the family a,
the wash-tub because her husband could no,
get work, owing to protection. This speech
alone ought to cost him his seat in Congress.
Thomas E. Chandler represents all tina,
Bynum opposes. Under protection he has
risen from journeyman to be an employer,
and now pays good wages to other men. He
favors the policy which has made indianapolis
manufacturing city, and which will keep it
So II the question could be presented as a
business question, OF free from partisan poll
tics, Chandler would beat Bynum two to one.
He ought to anyhow.

Where the German Vote Is Goine

Louis Haase, Of this city, in his earnessness
for the Republican cause, wrote recently to his
cousin, Joseph Levy. in New York city, relative
! to his political preferences. He was somewhat
in doubt as to Mr. Lsvy's position, but vester-
Cay that doubt was removed by his receiving a
letter from him in which the following is given

sentiment which speaks poorly for those who

it should be thoroughly discussed and rightly

Close of the County Campaign.

the county campaign closed satisfactorily to
the Republicans in every way. and the party
workers feel confident that General Harrison
will carry the county by q good majority, and
that every candidate on the Republican county
ticket will be elected. 1t has been long and
hardfoueht battle, aud the chairman of the
county committee, and his assistants ia every
precinct, deserve credit for the manner in which
they have conducted the campaign. From the
beginning the drift Of the sentiment has all been
with the Republicans, but still q great deal Of
hard work devolved upon the central commit
tee. So far as Mr.. Harding and his assistants
are concerned il has been a campaign of inteli-
gence. Everything has been done openly and
the citizens of Indianapolis have been asked to
support General Harrison because Of his states
manship and high character. and because he
represents the principle of protection for homo
industries. His election, they have also kept
prominently before the people, would be q credit
to every citizen of Indiana, without regard to
politics. Chairman Harding and Secretary Saul
cy agree in saying that from the beginning Of
the campaign they have had the hearty cooper.
alton Of hundreds of Republicans who never be-
fore took an active part in politics Instead of
having to hunt men to do work, applications for
something to do have come from scores of Re-
pobicsns in every ward. Republicans recognize
that this is not year when scratching should
be done, and every candidate on the county
ticket is certain of q good majority.
