INDIANAPOLIS, July 5.-The con
census of opinion of the members of the
Harrison notification committee is that
the Republican ticket will be elected
NJ. M. Estee, who was chairman of the
Chicago convention, says that since
the convention he has travelled in New
York and Pennsylvania, and the result
of his observations is that Harrison
and Morton will carry New York.
0. b. Wheeler, New York member
of the committee, says that he has
talked with many of the leading politi-
clans of New York City since his re-
turn from Chicago and his conclusion
is that New York will go for Harrison.
The issue of protection will be fought

tons nomination would add strength to
the ticket. II have been mainly in
New York since the convention" said
Mr.. Faley," aud my opinion is that Mr..
Morton S record rs business man will
be an important factor in our favor in
our campaign. When Morton failed in
the panic through the failure of his
customers, he turned over every
thing to his creditors. This paid
them a certain amount OF their
claims and when some years later
Mr.. Morton made money, he paid every
cent of the old Indebtedness with in

honor that is too often lacking, and
Mr.. Morton's possession of it will raise
him in the opinion of the people

Judge Charles w. Clisbee, of Mchi-
gan, said the people who talk about
Michigan being doubtful State simply
don't know the facts. Michigan is
absolutely safe for the Republican
party. The protection plank alone
would carry the State, but a
large proportion of the Prohibition
will come to US. Another thing, there
are thousands of old soldiers vino have
been Democrats and voted for CIeve-
land in 1884; not one-half will do so
this time. they have enough OF him,
they will vote for the old soldier, Benja-
min Harrison.
MIR. Estee, speaking of the pros
poets in Indiana said, "We will carry
Indiana certainly; Democrats, while
they keep up bold front, admit when
they speak their real minds that they
