TIE defeat of Major Steele. in the Eleventh

The defeat of Major Steele in the Eleventh
capable and influential Representative, and
the State and district lose by his retirement
from Congress. It is simply disgrace that
the majority Of the people in the Eleventh
district should prefer a man like Martin to a
trained and experienced Congressman like
Steele. The district was gerrymandered to
defeat him, but he carried it in the upheaval
of 1886. Major Steele secured branch of the
National Soldiers Home for his district, and
defeat is his reward. The election of Martin
is simply the blindest, stupidest, most malig-
nant Bourbon Democracy-the spirit that
keeps Indiana back.

FRAUDS again in Speaker Carlisles district.
This time it is ticket SO printed as to be
readily distinguishable, thus destroying the
secrecy of the ballot and placing the voter
under possible or actual intimidation. Mr..
Carlisle has engaged counsel, and the case will

If it does, it is to be hoped that justice will
be done the people this time. and that the
Speakers power and position will not be used

THE double ballot fraud was not exposed
too soon. Evidences all around showed that
the Democratic managers had prepared to play
it on q systematic plan and comprehensive
scale. On the day of election there were
number of double-ballot voters arrested, and in
every instance the scoundrel detected was at
tempting to vote Democratic ballots. In one
of the precincts of the Twenty-third ward in
this city twenty more ballots were found than
there were names on the poll.books These
evidences are conclusive of the Democratic
intention and preparation. The people of In
diana can scarcely realize from what de-
bauchery and fraud they were happily saved
by fearless and prompt exposure, and by the
display Of spirit that did not propose to
have q well-earned victory snatched from

A DECISIVE ELECTION.

The country is to be congratulated that the
result of the election was ascertained and an
nounced so soon, and was SO decided and pre-
ponderating in favor of the successful candi-
date. If it lad been foreordained that Cleve-
land was to be elected, we should have wished
to see his majority in the Electoral College as
promptly and clearly ascertained and as de-
cided as that of General Harrison has been
and is We have had two memorable expe-
riences of close and disputed presidential cleo
tons recently-enough to make US wish not to
have another. The elections Of 1876 and 1880
were painfully close, and the ascertainment
of the result attended by circumstances not
pleasant to recall nor desirable to repeat In
both cases the suspense was painful, and in
the former case the strain upon the constitu-
ton was very great. 1t is to be hoped We may
never have repetition of either OF those
cases. There is enough excitement. irritation
and friction in presidential contest without
having it prolonged and intensified by an un.
certain and disputed election.
This election hinged on few doubtful
States, and the result in these was practically
known the morning after the election. 1t re-
quired POI electoral votes to elect, and it was
reasonably certain on Tuesday morning that
General Harrison had 233. His majority in
the Electoral College was such that the result
could not have been changed. except by steal
ing New York, and the popular majority in
that State was SO large as to forbid any at
tempt in that direction. 1t looked, on Wednes-
day, as if an effort were being made to lay a
foundation for some such attempt, but if so,
it was soon abandoned as impracticable, and
the result stands as it was announced
Wednesday morning. The people themselves
settled the election by majority so decided
as to remove all opportunity for fraud or ne
cessity for supplemental action. The result
places the title of the President-elect above
question, and will greatly strengthen his posi-
ton before the country.
The Indianapolis journal. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1867-1904, 1888-11-09

all the others were filling the country with
panegyrics upon the wisdom of the Demo
cratic managers, and making the widest pos
sible claims based upon their superior politi-
cal wisdom and generalship. Thousands and
millions Of Democratic dollars have been lost
upon these gentlemen's statements and as
sertions made the day before the election,
which they now confess they knew to be alb
solutely false and without basis. 30. o. g."

PREsIDBNT-BLBoT HARRISON.

Benjamin Harrison, lately private citizen
of Indiana, is now Presidentelect Of the
United States. He belongs now to the coun-
try instead of to his State; he represents the
people, and not merely a party. From this
time on for four years he will occupy the
proudest worldly position that can be given to
any man. He will be the recipient of honors
and attentions from prince and potentate; he
will be the observed of observers a center of
interest not only to Americans but to for
eigners. All the distinction and respect that
accompany the position itself he will have;
but he will have, in addition, the regard and
esteem which are his due as a man of great
ability, of proved integrity and of immaculate
purity of character Every citizen of the
United States will have a right to be
proud of such President Every respecta-
BILE citizen, not blinded by partisan
prejudice and disappointment, should rejoice
that the man elected to the high Office does
honor to it and to the people who chose him.
That they do so is manifested by the readiness
with which the better class of his opponents
accept the result. They recognize in him a
statesman who will rule for public benefit and
not partisan and demagogue. No one un-
derstands this better than Indiana Democrats,
and already the more respectable members Of
the party are indicating their satisfaction with
the result. They are proud of Benjamin
Harrison as q man, as fellow-citizen, as a
brother Hoosier. They know that public and
private interests will be safe in his hands, and
that the administration. though not conduct
ed upon Democratic basis. will oe safe and
sound one. Now that the election is over
they are willing-nav, anxious-to concede
these facts. They desire to share-at Leaf, in
a small measure-in the credit that reflects
upon the community which has produced the
President Praise and even fulsome eulogy
are already taking the place Of detraction in
the more reputable Democratic circles.

NOTHING but the steady, down-pouring
rain yesterday could have prevented an un-
precedented outburst in this city of popular
enthusiasm and rejoicing over the election of
Harrison. Even as it was the streets most of
the day were moving mass of decorated Re-
publicans, and the air was filled with a perpet-
ual din. The rain somewhat dampened the
ardor of the people and interfered with the
outdoor demonstration, but it may have had
good effect in preventing the congregation

DECENT" INDIANA DEMOCRATS.

Those Indiana Democrats who now hasten
to do honor to the coming chief should hide
their faces in shame when they remember
the campaign their party has waged against
General Harrison. 1t is idle to say that the
best members of the party are not responsible
for the villainous ISLANDERS upon which the
managers mainly depended for his defeat.
The Chinese lie. the labor lie, the dollar-a-day
lie, the Irish lie were circulated as campaign
documents, were used by speakers and were
printed over and over again in their party
papers Decent" Democrats knew these
stories were ISLANDERS, but they did not de-
nounce them; they knew General Harrison
was likely to be elected President of the
United States, but they had not the decency,
the honor, the manliness to come forward and
give their testimony in his behalf. They
were willing to profit by these and other
shameless SANDERS even if they did not &C
tually disseminate them. They are willing
now to kick Ed Gould and the other shiny
tools who did the party's dirty work con-
temptuously aside, and would be glad to for
get even their tacit encouragement of such
methods. They will proclaim their admira.
tion of General Harrison, and will be pleased
if the character of their opposition is not re-
membered against them.
The Journal does not speak for General
Harrison in this matter. He is in position
to forgive and forget, and, being amiable in
temper. will, perhaps, overlook his personal
injuries. Other Republicans, however, are
not likely to be so forbearing. They will
have other fights to conduct against these
same decent Democrats, and can hardly be
expected to forget the disgracsful course of
the late campaign. Common justice requires
that it should be very distinctly remembered.

MARSHAL HAWKINs's THUGS.

The Sentinel says the censure of Marshal
Hawkins els utterly without Justification"
that he FUSED special care in the selection Of
his deputies" and that the arrests made of
leading business men were entirely Unsuitable.
The gentlemen arrested were characterized as
"bulldozers, and it adds: 1.-THE only cause
for regret is that they cannot be punished as
they deserve to be. They succeeded in de-
priving a good many legal voters of their
rights, and there ought to be some way to
make them atone for the wrong" This
caps the climax Of impudence and mendacity.
The gentlemen referred to as bulldozers who
deserved arrest for depriving legal voters Of
their rights, are such well-known citizens as
Messrs. Atkins. Nordyke. Rorison, Fletcher,
and many others who were arrested without
the slightest cause or provocation. The
deputy marshals who made the arrests were
ex-convicts, saloon-keepers. or characterless
fellows who were only intent on annoying and
intimidating Republican voters. The arrests
were part of premeditated and systematic
plan to carry Marion county. 1t was worked
in conjunction with the importation of illegal
voters, the double ticket fraud, and other
'good schemes by which Marion county was
stolen and false and fraudulent Democratic

REPUBLICAN United States Senators from

interested in the dissolution of Southern
solidity as the South itself. The South will
find itself the greatest beneficiary of the
election of General Harrison. We have fought
this battle on the broadcast basis of nationalism,
to emancipate the South and the national
Democracy. The North and Repu blicana
could get along very we'll with a Bourbon
Democratic administration; but it was an
absolute necessity that the New South and
national Democrats should be freed from the
chains that enslaved them. There will be q
rising in the South, and General Harrison'a
administration will lend them a friendly and
a strong hand.
