JUNGLE DICK" SPOKE
ROUSING MEETING OF REPUBLICANS
AT TERRE HAUTE SATURDAY.
Hon. Frank POsey Introduced by Col.
IL. w. ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
Meetings Not Well Attended.

Special to the indianapolis Journal.
TERRE HAUTE, Ind, Sept 30.-About
the best meeting the Republicans have
held this year was that of last night. when
the Hon. Frank Posey. of Evansville, was
the speaker. The Mckinley Club turned out
in large numbers to escort the speaker to
the armory where the meeting was held.
To the surprise and qualification of all Col.
X. w. Thompson was able to be present
ard preside at the meeting. He said: "As
you know / have been dealing in doctors
truck for some time on account of my
physical condition. but 1 believe that the
excitement of the times and the present
bright prospects of the Republican victory
in November have done more for my illness
than all the doctors. 1t gives me pleasure
at least" He introduced Mr.. Posey as one
he had known since boyhood.
Mr.. PoSey drew a contrast between the
condition of. the country in 1892 with what
it has been since. He spoke of the fact
that the Republican party under President
Harrison's administration paid off $2o0.O0O,-
900 Of the public debt, when at the SAM
time the people were more prosperous than
ever before. In addition the party inaugu-
rated and kept up the most liberal pension
system yer known. He spoke of the tariff
as being a labor question and nothing else.

if she did by great care succeed in making

SHELBYVILLE, Ind, Sept. 30.-The Re-
publican campaign in this county is pro-
crossing under the most favorable circum-
stances. The failure of the Democrats TO
secure anything like a crowd at any of
their meetings, even at the country cross
roads, has discouraged the management.
The last assessment they levied on the
township candidates has not been respond
ed to, and the county candidates. believing
they can be elected any way, are slow in
contributing. Last election Cleveland car
ried the county by S26. but there are none
SO sanguine as to expect more than 500
majority for their most popular man. Capt.
John Worrell has been campaigning in the
county the last week and reports show that
he has been greeted by enthusiastic au-
dience5 and large crowds at every point.
James z. Watson, Holman's opponent for
Congress, will begin his campaign in the
county on Tuesday.

Wolf declares that he will continue to

Chase, a director in the same bank, who
solicited the deposits, must stand trial,
even though Paris be acquitted. In the

the trial of Mr.. Chase is considered as no
