hearty welcome. He first spoke of the
gallant fight being made by Charles l..
Henry, of the vile methods adopted by tin
horn politicians to SANDER him by aiidavits
OF a most ntempti character. and
which have been shown TO be nothing more
than the perjury of tools in the hands of
INSCRIPTIONS ringsterS. He also spoke of
the after-effect of these methods, and of
the grand movement that is destined to
turn down the Democratic congressional
Representative from this district. He read
extracts from the lndiapolis Sentinel which
were anything but complimentary to In
diana and national Democracy, and closed
his remarks with a telling charge on the
corrupt manner in which the Democracy
is now trying TO rob the workingman and
then vote him for more wholesale robbery.
The overflow of the court room was adj

II. Cockrum. He was introduced by NJ. A.

burst of applause that was simply start

clerical incomes, as well as some exceed

with regard to teaching. facts and figures
prove that the average pay OF the teacher

Rev. DIR. II. X. Carroll. II need hardly be
said that city salaries are much higher
than those of rural churches, but IL may not
be so generally known that the average
salary up North is far ahead of that in the

race between James f. Watson, Repub-
lican. and William S. Holman, Democrat.
in the Fourth congressional district, is
daily growing in interest. Every day the
fact becomes more and more apparent that
the Republicans made no mistake in nomi-
mating James f. Watson. He is indefatiga-
BILE and an incessant canvasser, often max
ing two or three speeches a day, the last
being as fresh and interesting as the first.
AS a public speaker he is brilliant. logical
and convincing, and he is winning golden
opinions wherever he goes. An evidence of
mis- popularity is witnessed in the fact that
at all points at which he has spoken the
.seODle desire that he should return and
address them again. He speaks in both
German and E~lnglish-with as much ease
in one language as in the other. Many
German Democrats will vote for him, as
they desire q Representative in Congress
with whom they can communicate in their
own language. Another class who are com

the younger element in the Democratic
party, who think 1T is time that Judge

MUNCIE, Ind, Oct. 19.-The most enthu-
siastic Republican meeting in Delaware
county since the present campaign opened
was held in Heekin Park last night. 1t
was the occasion of the speech to be made
by William Pemberton, of Albany, Della
ware county. For two weeks past he has
been making speeches at night and blowing
glass in the daytime. Mr.. Pemberton is an
Engrishman by birth, and came TO this
country about eight years ago because he
learned that il was the best place for the
wage Garner. He was an officer of a glass
blowers union in England during the
Graut-Greeley campaign in the United
States. He stated that at that time his
union asked for a slight increase in wages.
but Il was not conceded until after the
election in this country, when Grant was
elected. The English boss told the men
that if Greeley was elected there would be
an influx of American glass workers TO
England. as free trade would be the rule,
and all wages would go down. Said the
speaker: II kept thinkin over that state
ment of my boss until l was convinced
that protected America was the place for
me, and L finally came here. He closed
with a strong appeal for American wage
earners ito stand by protection and the
