Resolved, That the Democratic State
assembled at Indianapolis on this 18th day
of December, 1895. unanimously recommend
to the Democracy of the Union Governor
Claude Matthews a suitable candidate
for the presidency OF the United States.
I'VE know him TO be lifelong Democrat
and that he possesses the Jeffersonian quail
iflcations: that Is TO say, he is honest. COM
petent and worthy.
I've know that he is thoroughly devoted
TO the fundamental principles OF the Demo-
cratic party, which must endure as long as
our Republic stands. Like jefferson and
Jackson, he has come into official life from
among our agricultural people. and is broad
and liberal in his views concerning all the
great interests that go to make up our ac-
tive, progressive and patriotic Nation
That Governor Matthews, in his services
in the Legislature of our State. in the adj
m.nistrative office of Secretary Of State and
as chief executive of the State of Indiana
has gained very useful experience in pub
lie affairs. That he is studious. Industrious,
cautious and firm in the discharge OF public
duty. That his popularity is evidenced by
the uniform success of his canvasses before
the people hitherto.
1--WE, therefore, respectfullopresent him
TO our fellow-Democrats of the Nation as
a fit and proper person TO be the standard
bearer of the national Democratic party
In the presidential contest OF 1896"

MR.. STEELE'S PICTURES.
A Collection of Beautiful New Work
at His Studio.

Mr. T. c. Steele, acknowledged as the
leading artist of Indiana. has recently re-
turned from the Vicinity of Muncie, where
he has been painting for several weeks.
Previous TO going to Muncie, Mr.. Steele
spent most of the summer at Spencer,
taking the house, Ludlow Hail." formerly
occupied by Mr.. Calvin Fletcher. which is
known throughout the State as one of the
most beautiful country places anywhere
about Mr.. Steele has completed a number
of pictures and these he has placed on ex-
hibition in his studio. at the corner of
North Pennsylvania and Seventh streets.
The exhibit is open to the public. and those
who appreciate fine bits of scenery trans
ferred to canvas by a master hand. can
find them in the collection shown. One is
named Sweet Fields of Owen" The scene
looks across fields to hills beyond. Near the
foreground are two figures walking in the
shade Of a row of straight naples. The
place is most enticing for walk: with the
Green and Cold is the name gwen TO a
picture which is largely of the two colors.
1t is more in the decorative effects than
any other picture In the exhibit and is quite
unlike anything Mr. Steele has previously
done. 1t shows millrace with overhanging
trees and bushes, which have taken on their
most gorgeous autumn colors. The Mys-
terlcus Room" Is the mysterious name of a
picture which suggests much. This was
taken at Ludlow Hall. The cellar is built
much like an old cloister, or like Easements
in the old country, with arches and plas-
tered walls. The picture shows a dark door
and just looking into its recesses is the
figure OF woman In dark red dress. The
mysterious effect is gained in the clever use
of shadows. One picture is Dawn" This
is very early dawn, when everything is
yet covered with darkness. The first sug-
gestion OF the coming sunlight is low on
the horizon. a faint, grayish line, which
only serves 10 show the outline OF the tall
trees and a clump OF bushes. There are
hints OF a landscape which will be beautiful
when the full Hight OF day comes.

came to be walking without his crutch.

Republican leader in Florida who is travel

Quay and his party. The gentleman passed
thronghhere with the party yesterday MORN
Ing. He says that Quay on the trip talked
freely OF the elections and of their effect
on the policy of the Republicans.
The Senator said the elections showed
that the nationalism of the Republicans
as opposed to the scctionalism of the
Democrats had taken a firm hold on the
people. and that there would be no more

opinion. meant that hereafter the South
ern whites would no longer be controlled
by sentiment in politics. but would vote

The Senator declared that there are
only three or four States still safely DEM
ocratic in the South.
He thinks it will be good policy for the
Republicans to nominate Southern man
for Weep resident, as Il fitting recognition
of the winning the Southern Republicans
have made against tremendous odds, and
an action that would convince the Southern
people of the national spirit OF the Repub-
lcan party.
When asked what Southern Republican
he would suggest for Weep residential hon.
ors. the Senator declined to commit himself,
though 1t was easy to tell from his conversa-
ton that he favored Bradley, OF Kentucky,
whose fight in that State he frequently al
luded to as magnificent.
Senator Quay and party are in route

several weeks Fishing and hunting. Sem
