Pnlladelpnla PresS.
There are 1913 electoral votes which may be
counted as surely Republican with any fair and
probable candidate But it requires 20I to elect,
and who can best span the margin of 80 between
the certain and the necessary is the problem be-
fore the Republican party. The States from
which these thirty three votes must be won are
New York, New Jersey. Connecticut Indiana,
and the three States of the Pacific coast-Cali-
fornia, Oregon and Nevada With Mr.. Blaine
the last three States were sure; they probably
wonld be with most of the other candidates who
have been named. There is ground also for
including Virginia. West Virginia, North Caro-
lima and possibly Tennessee among the States
which may fairly be ciassed as doubtful. All
of those doubtful States together cast 121 votes,
and il the Republican party should carry them
all il would gain one of the most sweeping vic
tories it achieved. It only required
full vote to elect the President. There sew
eral different ombinations by which this could
be done. To carry New York alone, with it's
thirty-six votes, would be enough, and leave
three votes TO spare. To carry the Pacific
and Indiana, with either New Jersey or
Connecticut, would do it without New York OF
any Southern State. To carry the Pacific coast
and Indiana and West Virginia would do it
without either New York. New Jersey or Con-
necticnt II Virginia aud North CAROLINA or
Tennessee were secured with the Pacific States.
then victory would be obtained without one of
the doubtful Northern States.
In selecting the candidate these decisive
points must be remembered. It is not wise,
them and disregard tine others. In seeking a
candidate strong for New York. we must not
overlook Indiana or the Pacific coast In hunt.
inc a leader who may run well there we must
consider whether it is not good policy slso to
make fight for Virginia and West Virginia
other combines elements of strength for this
whole held, he is the N an who should be chosen

offers the best advantages to Manufacturers, out

Sunday Evening Services.


70 the Editor of the Indianapolis Journal:
I notice in this mornings Journal an article
from some saying it is not possible nor best
for morning church goers to attend evening serv
ices and that the aim of such service should be
to reach those ontside of the church life. Now
please tell me how the dear Christian ministers
of this city going TO get the worldly people
interested in this great work il we church mem
bers simply go to morning services. and stay at
home of evenings and shift the responsibility on
to thu shoulders of our dear pastorss Now
would suggest that we church members OF all
denominations go to every evening service for
the next three months AMI by our presence we
will enthuse pastors, and they will preach
better sermons, and we will get little more of
the Holy Ghost in our own hearfs:and then we will
want to shake hands with each other and well
come all strangers that NAV come. and then we
will have full pews. happy hearts. and hope

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE


TO the Editor OF the Indianapolis Journak
The argument Of the Journal fsvoring the
erection OF government buildings in cities OF

able. and should be Endorsed by every pa trios
the Union over. But why draw the lin on
population of 10. 000i
There are thousands OF cities and towns OF much
less size VIII ere the service of the government

Ion aud erect thereon a stone or brick building
commensurate with the needs OF the service,
there is no question but the governments and
the people would be- jointly benefited thereby.
The range of cost should be based on the size OF
the town and the amount OF mails received and
transferred. and would probably run from 3d.
