The Outlook in Indiana.

Special TO the Boston Journal.
Lucius B. Swift secretary Of the Indiana
Civilservice Reform Association, who Is here,
says of the Republican outlookr.in bis State.
Harrison is undoubtedly master of the situa-
ton. He will gain largely from the Prohibition
ranks, for he is himself temperate man. The
Democrats, however will lose many OF their
late followers to the Prohibition party. On the
question of protection Harrison will also gain.
When you talk to farmer of free wool he al
ways wants to know why, if wool must be free,
sugar should continue to DO taxed. The eol-
diers are rallying to Harrison. for they recog-
nize the fact that he was brave man when
brave men were needed, skill
full officer and a popular leader The
only attempt that has been made to
damage his candidacy by the Democrats Was
the publication. far and wide. OF Cen Hsrrison's
alleged utterauces with regard to the working
mans compensation and on tho Chinese cues
ton. These stories are so false in every respect
that but few men have placed any confidence IN
them. They cannot wear through the cam

getting themselves on the wrong aide OF the
State Issues. Their machine has supported the
tally sheet forgers all through, aud Representa-
tive Bynum. ex-senator Mcdonald and senator
Turpie did their best with the administration
here TO have the prosecutions stopped Other
matters of local Importance have been similarly
treated by them, and they have put themselves
