IMPROVED OUTLOOK In INDIANA.

The reports which have come to the
Journal and to the Republican head
quarters from every part of the State
during the past few days are of the
most cheering character. For several
weeks the Republican prospects have
been improving, but during the past
week genuine indications of deep and
enthusiastic interest have appeared in
the larger cities. The Friday night
demonstration in this city has given the
Republican cause q powerful impetus,
because it showed that the mass of Re-
publican voters in Marion county only
waited an occasion to show their old
time devotion and enthusiasm. The
great meeting and magnificent indus
trial display at Connersville Saturday
was one of the largest Republican as
semblages and the most unique Repub-
lican demonstration ever witnessed in
that locality. The Evansville meet
ing disclosed the same intense in
terest and hearty enthusiasm. The
same is true of the great meetings
in Lafayette and other cities. The
reports from all parts of the State show
large meetings and deep interest. There
has never been so great a demand for
speakers upon Republican committees
OF for inforpiation regarding the issues
before the country. In the light of
recent developments. it may be doubted
that at any time during the last two
months the Republicans of. Indiana
were apathetic, in the sense that they
were not interested, but now all that is
a thing of the past. During the past
week the Republican campaign reached
o stage of enthusiasm which will in
crease until election day. 1t is better
80. because there is danger, in a long
campaign, of a relaxation of effort after
weeks of intense activity.
The outlook is bright with promise.
All the indications warrant the con-
clusion that the drift is clearly toward
the Republican ticket. All the argu-
ments arc on our side. The general
prosperity, like the stars in their
courses, fights for Republican suprem-
y All that is needed to win is tho
best effort of every earnest Republican.

A scHEaE TO CHEAT REPUBLICAN VOTERS.

The Democratic leaders in this State
did not become converts to the secret
ballot system until they learned that it
could be employed to cheat Republicans
out of their votes. AS tried in 1890 it
did not fully meet their ~anticipations.
A large number of Republicans were
robbed of their votes because Of alleged
irregularities in stamping and folding.
But it was not enough, so they modified
the law in 1891 and passed another, by
which party watchers will be excluded
from the room where votes are being
counted. No satisfactory explanation
has been made for the repeal of q law
which has been on the statute book for
years. The natural conclusion, there
fore, is that It was done to enable the
Democratic vote-inspectors to throw
ont more votes and to carry the
election by Mississippi methods rath-
er than by O fair vote. This is
a serious charge to make, but who
will say that it is not warranted by the
throwing ont of votes in 1890, the pro-
vision for the immediate destruction of
ballots, which will prevent reviews and
the evidence of fraud against election
officers, and the tally-sheet crime in
this county in 1867 The United States
supervisors did stand in the way of the
scheme that year. but there will be but

danger is in the use of the stamp. In

ayers in the last election it was used to
cheat Republicans out of their votes. If
the greatest care is not exercised
the ink used in stamping will show
through or blot other parts of the
ballot in folding. Great care must be
taken in this matter. The Republican
central committee is sending out speci-
men ballots with instructions for stamp
ing. There are hundreds of young men
eager to help the cause who can give
instruction in this matter under local
committees. They can get stamps and
ink-pads, and show how they can be
used to dofeat tho probable scheme of
the Taggart-Coy managers. One fact
should be specially impressed upon the
Republican voter. and that is that any
attempt to stamp more than the square
in which the eagle is printed multiplies
the danger of vi tiating the ballot.
Every time that implement, devised to
rob Republicans of their votes. is put to
a ballot with Ink increases the chances
of its being thrown put by the instructed
minions of the Democratic management.

THE Journal has received numerous
inquiries in regard to the qualification
of voters and the necessity of register
ing in certain cases. To all who are in
doubt on the subject. we will say that
the sections of the new law III regard to
registration are undoubtedly unconsti-
t~utional, and will be so held by the SUI
preme Court. 1t is too late nov to reg
lister in any case, but no person should
refrain from offering his vote. and in
sisting on its acceptance because he has
not registered.
The constitutional qualifications for
voting in Indiana are six months resi-
dence in the State, sixty days in the
township and thirty days in the pre-

ton. These qualifications cannot be
varied in the manner attempted In the
registry section of the new law.

REMARKABLE FACTS REaARDna WAGES.

The Census Bureau has begun to send
out bulletins containing the preliminary
reports of the mechanical and manu-
featuring industries in the cities of the
United States for the year which ended
May 81, 1890. in comparison with similar
reports for 1880. These reports show a
growth in the industries of the country

BALLOT INSTRUCTION.

The Journal has repeatedly called
attention to the necessity of instructing
voters how to prepare their ballots,
and it has reason to believe that the
Importance of the subject is not appre-
ciated. 1t is a real danger point. The
preparation of the ballot and the man.
ner Of voting are simple enough when
understood, but there is q surprising
number of persons who do not under
stand how to do it. A Republican travel
ing man writes to the Journal as follows:
Travelling as / am over the northern por-
tion of Indiana | am surprised at the

pairing their ballots for the coming election.

At the risk of being CHI arged with re-

ter to Republicans that We are in dan
ger of being beaten on this point. We
have said before, and We now repeat,
the chances are that the party which
best instructs its voters how to prepare
their ballots under the new law will
carry this State. A great many voters
will not go to the polls if they are in
doubt how to stamp their ballots, while
many others will make mistakes that
will invalidate their ballots. If explicit
directions how to prepare their ballots
could be placed in the hands of every
Republican in the State during the next
three weeks it would make more votes
than all the speeches that will be deliv-
cred between now and the election.
