Special to the Indianapolis Journal
NEW YORK, Sept &c W.. Fairbanks, of In
dianapolis, . prominent lawyer of that city, was
seen at the Fifth-avenue Hotel a day or two ago
by . reporter. Mr.. Fairbanks is q tall, slender
man. straight as an arrow, OF easy. polished
speech and captivating manners. Like many
other aspiring Indianians, he was born in Ohio.
He has practiced law in Indianapolis for the last
fifteen years, during which be has been on terms
of friendship and intimacy with General Harri-
son. In speaking Of the Republican prospects
in Indiana Mr.. Fairbanks said: 1--WE are conf
dent that we shall carry the State for Harrison.
The Generals nomination gave rs the lead in
the State; we have net lost it. and do not mean
to. The Republicans are united rs they have
not been for years. For my own part, / look for
a Republican majority in the State of not less
than 10, 1000"
What il the effect upon the canvass Of the
charge that, eleven years ago, General Harri-
son said 81 . day was enough pay for work
ingmenf'
mot the slightest in Indiana. 1t only shows
the desperation of She Democrats when they are
driven to invent such a story. These stories
are not made with ths-hope OF injuring General
Harrison where he Is known. His ueighbors
know him too well to believe any such ISLANDERS
about him. They were started for their effect
here in New York and in other States, where IL
was thought q prejudice might be excited
AGAINST tas General, where a large proportion
or the voters are laboring men. But in Indiana,
my Democratic neighbor here from Indianapolis
can tell you thu effect as well as l." and Mr..
Fairbanks introduced the reporter to Mr..
Matthews, Of New Albany. Mr.. Matthews
laughed az the idea of the s1-a-day story hurt
ing General Harrison in Indiana "Why,"
he said, "there are too many people
who would be glad to get 81 q
day. / AN now engaged in car
building in New Albany, where we employ hun
dreds of men at 80 cents a day. AS there Is no
immedinte danger of my running for President,
it will be safe TO tell you what I say. When
Republicans like my friend Fairbanks assert
that free trade will reduce wages. / say that's
just what ! want; we have to pay 80 cents a day
now at New Albany. and IL free trade will re-
duce wages below that, let as have free trade.
IF a prominent Republican were to make a
similar statement, he would be roundly de-
pounced and his remark heralded in the Demo
cratic press as evidence of Republican hostility
to workingmen," said the reporter.
Yes" replied Dir. Matthews, "but / am not q
Republican, and l can say what I please; but
you can see that the 81 a day charge was not in
tended for consumption in Indiana

A Famous Doctor

Once said that the secret of good health
consisted in keeping the head cool, the
feet warm, and the bowels open. Had
this eminent physician lived in our day,
and known the merits of Ayers Pills
as an apericnt, he would certainly have
recommended them, as SO many of his
distinguished successors are doing.
The celebrated DIR. Farnsworth, of
Norwich, Conn, recommends Ayers
Pills as the best of all remedies for
"~Intermittent Fevers."
DIR. /. E. Fowler, of Bridgeport,
Conn.,, says: "Ayer's Pills are highly
and universally spoken of by the people
about here. 1 make daily use OF them
In my practice"
DR.. Mayhem, of New Bedford, Mass,
says: "Having prescribed many thou
sands of Ayers Pills, in my practice, L
can unhesitatingly pronounce them the
best cathartic in use"
THE Massachusetts State Assayer. DR..
A. A. Hayes, certifies ct have made a
careful analysis of Ayers Pills. They
contain the active principles OF we'll
known drugs, isolated from inert mat
g ter, which plan is, chemically speaking,
of great importance TO their usefulness.
1t insures activity, certainty, and uni
formity of effect. Ayers Pills contain
no metallic or mineral substance, but
the virtues of vegetable remedies IN
skillful combination"
