Indinnapolfs Inkings

INDIANAPOLIS, December 22.-This
was busy day with the President
elect. The morning was largely given
to his correspondence. There were
many callers in the afternoon and even
ing, mostly town people. OF out-of-
town callers of prominence there were
Judge 7. B. Catron and Colonel A. l..
Rynersen, of New York, and Samuel
w. Allerten. the well-knOwn Chicago
capitalist. Their visit to General Har-
rison was largely social, but also polltI-
CAL since they are earneatly adyocat-
ing home rule" for the Territories. 1t
is believed they urged upon the Presi-
denU-slect strict observance OF that
plank in the Republican platform Whlc b
fsvoTs the appointment of residents OF
the Territories to the Federal offices
therein. they claim similar promises
in other national platforms have been
grossly violated in New Mexico, and
they believe all Federal officers, from
governor down to stenographer ought
to be supplied from
RESIDENTS OF THE TERRITORIES.
r tbs thought their visit to- day was
merely informal, and merely precur
sorry to the same general movement on
the part of the people, especially Repub-
licans of New Mexico looking to their
complete emancipation from non-resi-
dent rule. 1t is not known what views,
if any, the President-elect expressed in
his talk with the New Mexicans, but a
gentleman who claims to know some
what of General Harrison's views on
Territorial questions, says the General
has for years been a believer in Terri
torial home rule, and that if he follows
out his former opinions he Will vigor-
ously adhere to the plank advocating
home appointments for all the Terri
tories.
A number of Christmas gifts arrived
to-day. From Park City, Utah, there
came to General Harrison a miniature
silver brick paper weight some three
inches long and over an inch thick. 1t
is engraved ITO Benjamin Harris on,
from Alfred G. Reese, Angus Gibbon,
Louis Gerhoof. Gus Lubbock and John
A. Lenzi." From California, j. H.
Hendricks sends a specimen box of
Muscat grape raisins, the production OF
which he writes are the direct results OF
protective tariff.
During the holiday week the Harri-
! son houss hold anticipate a quiet time,

mense Oklahoma movement, which has
forces in all the leading towns of south
western Kansas, northern Kansas and

nor tbs the movement has been
worked quietly. Pawnee Bill said +,
tonight, the movement was backed
by strong financial support, and while
some were fayo ing an immediate
march into Oklahoma proper, he would
certainly oppose such a movement until
action on the Oklahoma bill now pending
could BIS taken, and if unfavorable &C
tion were taken, an immense colony
would certainly march toOklahoma City.
Arms would not be resorted to except
for self projection.
