Hawkins's Marshals in Clay County.

epecal to the Indianapolis journal
BRAZIL Nov. 1o.-Clay county increased her
vote for Harrison by 43 o-er that for Blaine.
Blaine polled the full Republican vote here, but
there has been an increase IN the
voting population, with additions from the
Democratic ranks. Hawkius's marshals kept
the Republican majority down. But for them
the county would have gone Republican, and
Johnston would have been returned to Congress.
There was q posse Of these sluegers in almost,
if not quite every precinct in the county. Re-
publican voters were challenged by the scores.
Many arrests were made and there was much
intimidation. In Brazil the scheme did
not succeed. Here the marshals
got o hearty reception ard were routed,
while their commissions were shown to
be fraudulent. The indignation developed here
was very bitter. and Marshal Hawkins came
near being responsible for disturbance Of
serious character.
The Republican central committee. Dr. j. c.
Clifford chairman, aided by Republicans gener-
ally, made a gallant fight. Republican gains
were every where made, and Democratic county
officers were elected By meager msjorities. one
