FIRST SPEECH OF THE DAY.
Brief, Pointed Address to West In
dianapOlis WOrIxingmen

General Harrisons train moved off
promptly from the Union Station at 9
o'clock this morning. The General himself
arrived at the station ten minutes before
the scheduled time for leaving and he
found all the members of the ACCOMMODATING
party awaiting his coming The train was
in charge of Mr.. Mansfield superintendent
of the Indianapolis & Vincennes road and
in the party We're the following gentlemen:
r. B. T. Peirce, E. H. Nebeker, w T. Dur
bin, Hugh Hanna, d. NJ. Ransdell, IL c.
Adams, John L. Griffiths. VIII Curnback.
W. A. Ketcham, w. l.. Taylor. j. B. Will
son, of Bloomington. Chaplin c.. Foster and
a party of newspaper men. The accommo-
dations for the journey were most excel
lent r. B. f. Peirce had placed at General
Harrisons disposal the private cars of the
Indiana, Decatur & Western and Cloy er
Leaf roads, and there was thus ample room
for all. The train was cheered at the Union
Station as it pulled out and the days work
began before it had left the city.
At the Belt crossing, west of West In
dianapolis, crowd of several hundred ,eo-
pie had gathered. mostly workmen from
the shops in that vicinity. They would hot
permit the train to proceed, and eheered
enthusiastically as General Harrison sp-
peared No time was wasted in an intro
duction; everybody knew the distinguished
citizen of Indiana. and he talked to them
going to the heart of matters without pre-
liminaries. He said:
MY friends, l want to thank you for Civ
ing us a cordial send-off this morning on
this long and tiresome trip for me You
win not expect me TO speak, perhaps fur
ther than to say to you that this is anot her
campaign in which very singular notions
are being promulgated. l speak here -
men who have gathered from these indus
trial establishments about the suburLs uf
Indianapolis. The effort this year IS to
persuade them that the dollar they Get
every week is too good. and that they
ought to have one that is not quite so ,ruod
1 ask you If that is not the sum of the
whole argument. 1t is very plain II seems
that the silver dollar. if the relative value
of gold and silver remains what il is. and
silver is coined freely, will not buy as much
as a gold dollar, how much less nobody can
tell; that is guess work. 1t will be atistlat-
ing like the mercury in the thermometer

in Indiana to the laboring man and the

FEDERAL POWER SUPREME.
General Harrison on the Altgeld
Plank of the Chicago Platform.

AT Martinsvile a crowd of 5000 people
had gathered and swarmed about the space
between the station and the sanitarium
near it, 4 gayly decorated stand had been
erected in the open space and all the build
ings in the vicinity of the station were
bright with flags and bunting. General
Harrison was cheered to the echo when he
appeared on the platform, and was escorted
to the stand. Here he was introduced with
a word from Judge Grubbs, a member of
his old regiment, and made speech of
some length. He said:
My Fellow -citizens-If could find pleas
ure in making Il public address at all |
should find it, | think, in Morgan county
The people of this county l feel as though
/ was very close TO and that you were close
to me, for whatever your citizenship there
went with me into the great war for the
Union a number OF your best young men.
They are not young now, but | am sure
that neither they nor you nave abated in
any degree your love for the flag and your
determination to maintain all the powers
of the national government If we had not
been so purposed before we made all the
sacrifices that we made between 1861 and
1852 | would stay our resolution that no
party and no body of men should ever
derrogate from the due authority and pow
er and dignity of the United States that
the boys of 1851 saved for them. (Applause) }
Now, my countrymen. / regret to say
that in this campaign there is {. dangerous
assault made upon the integrity of the
tional government and upon its just and
reasonable power. When our faith RS framed
this government they divided the powers
of government between the States and the
Nation. Certain great national powers were
given to the Nation and the remaining pow
erS-an those that relate TO local affairs
were left TO the State. No one attacks this
subdivision. no one proposes to derrogate

Early Militia Records.

Col. Geo. W. Knaebel, adjutant general,
has recently added some very valuable
documents to his record of old time vet
Grams in New Mexico, notably the in
dependent company of volunteers raised
by Lieut.. A. H. Pfeiffer at Abiquiu in
1856, and attached to the company of
Capt. Charles Deus, in the campaign
against the Ute and Apache Indians.
This detachment had severe fight with
the Indians at Las Nutrias, N. M, March
IA, 1855. In 1859 Capt Pfeiffer raised a
company at Abiquiu, consisting of three
commissioned officers, eight non-commis-
stoned officers and sixty-nine privates.
The arms for this company we're issued
by Gov. Rencher, June 4, 1859, and con-
sisted of forty-three rifles, thirty.seven
muskets and three "six shooting pistols"
Another interesting document just dis
covered is the roster of officers of the 4th
regiment Texas mounted volunteers, who
paid visit to New Mexico in 1862. 1t
embraces the names of fifty officers be-
longing to that regiment and will no
doubt be published hereafter.
