The way s.rlkes outsiders.

Minneapolis Tribune.
The bad blood in the body-politic of the Ind
lana Democracy has come to head in the form
of large, led and angry boil. The core of the
abscess is your Uncle Joseph E. Mcdonald
formerly yoke-fellow of Thoma as A. Hendricks.
Samuel j. Tilden, Allen g. Thurman and
Horatio Seymour-now spat upon and spurned
by one Isaac p. Gray and his nlinions. Gray re-
presents the machine Democracy OF Indiana and
Cleveland, and is the choice of the latter for the
vice. presidency. Senator Mcdonald has been
spoken OF for every known ofice. from the presi-
dency down TO the consul at St Helena but
somehow the administra zion has not seen fit to
honor him. He has borne it all meekly, like a
weil-trained Democrat, ND to yesterday. when
his manhood asserted itself ard he gave the
Hoosisr Bourbons large slice of his decidedly
active mind.
You see, Mr. Mcdonald was denied the small
honor of being sent deieeate-at-large from
Indiana 10 the ST. Louis convention. and lt
rather CALLED the old gentlemen. He has eased his
mind by telling the truth He declares,
without any circumlocution, that the Indiana
Democrats are sadly demoraiizbd. and that, with
Gray as a candidate for the viee-presideucy, the
Republicans are certain to carry the State. As
Gray will surely be nominated at St Louis
unless miracles be performed ia these days--fhe
Republicans may well begia counting on In
diana; and they need not be at all surprised IL
Uncle Joseph assists them q Ettle-etrictly on
the quiet, of course.

ers say they intend to let the law take its
course, there is yet deep undercurrent of feel
ing that may produce violence. Hedberg is
twenty-five years of age, and is related to a
number of leading Swedish families of Gales
burg. He says he was on the way home when
he noticed Newell and Cable coming toward
him. AS they passed, Hedberg says, Newell
around the neck with the other, twisting his
head to one side. while Cable struck him on the
right temple. His left arm was bound fast, but
his right was free. and with this he drew his re-
volver and firod twice. The frat ball entered
