WAsHfSGro~. July ~. Tho Gresham
boom 80 vigorously started by General
Terrence causes considerable stir IN
political circles here. With one accord
the Indiana democrats enthusiastically
indorse Gresham. hut they deprecate
the prcsent launching of the boom a.
entisiy too early. Prominent Indiana
democrats. men who have been tho stay
and support IL the party In that state
Tor years. readily avow their belief In
Secretary Gresham as the coming prcsi-
Dental candidate. They say that no
man. not even the lamented Hendricks,
ever aroused such enthusiasm or at.
tanned such cordial support as will
Gresham IL nominated in 1876. There
are democrats in Washington from all
parts II Indiana, and without exception
they declare Gresham 10 be stronger by
all odds than any other man In the state.
But they all say that Torrencc has been
very indiscreet in naming Gresham 50
early. The florence interview has
served 10 develop the fact that the lead.
ing democrats OF Indiana had already
turned their attention to Judge Gresham
for president.
Indiana Enthusiasts.
The man who is now conceded to be
the chosen leader of Indiana democracy
said today:
General Terrence is no doubt sin
cere friend IL Judge Gresham. but he is
foolish in talking about him as "A presi-
Dental candidate now. There is time
enough for that and at the proper time
Judge Gresham's friends will bring him
forward with no uncertain sound and In
numbers sufficient to accomplish their
end"

representatives has just returned from

gestiou Of Secretary Gresham as the
democrat candidate for president i'm.
pressed the people OF his state, he re.
piled:
-Splendidly. He's the man we want
next time, and l believe he will be the
nominee. Judge Gresham is extremely
popular in Indiana. lie is known 10 be
a man of the strictest personal and po
litical integrity. and the democrats ol
our state would support him TO man
He would draw thousands Of republican
