Republican situation in Jackson.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
BROWNSTOWN, Ind, Oct 27.-One
would conclude from reading the article
dated Seymour in yesterdays Journal that
Jackson county had coInty-seat removal
campaign instead of political one; but
such is not the case. The county-seat ques-
ton was settled on Oct. 10, 1897, by a de-
cisive victory for its present location. This
was not acquiesced in by some Seymour Re-
publicans and a so-called fusion with Dem
ocrats resulted. David Waters, Republican
county chairman, was induced to call the
committee together at Seymour, in the east
ern part of the county The attendance
was small, not exceeding twenty-five, in
GLIDING proxies, some of the proxies being
unauthorized. a vote was taken on the
question of fusion, which resulted in a ma
jority of one in it's favor. These members
of the committee who opposed fusion with
that element of Democrats finally agreed to
acquesce provided the Republicans be given
first place on the ticket. that of representa-
tive, and then every alternate place there
after. The Democrats objected, for they
saw that to vote for a Republican repre-
sentative would be voting for a man who
would vote against Turpie for United States
senator. They prepared a ticket, taking all
pielCSo cACSpt SHcT1II, surveyor ana
coroner. A fusion convention was called at
Seymour. which was presided over by a
Democrat, J. M. Shields, and the Demo-
cratic slate waS~adopted. The question of
a device for the ticket then came up, and
it was here that a difference was discov-
cred. Instead of using the eagle as an en-
bem as the Republicans desired the DEM
OcratS demanded an open book as their de-
vice, thus intending to put the eagle on his
perch in Jackson county for two years
causing from 200 to 100 Republicans to stay
at home and losing to the state ticket that
number of votes. 1t was the last straw
that broke the camels back. meeting
of indignant Republicans was called at
BrownstoWn, which was attended by a
from eight out of the eleven townships.
The meeting drafted an appeal to Mr..
Waters. chairman, to call a Republican
convention for the purpose of nominating a
Republican ticket. The petition was sent
to Waters, who in reply said that he had
publican county central committee over to
fusion and had no authority to act as
chairman. A meeting of loyal Republicans
was then called for the purpose of reOr-
ganizing the party. Committeeman We're

resulted in the nomination of Republicans

Order Affecting Volunteers Who
Served with the Regulars.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 27.-By direction of
the secretary of war, Col. Thomas Ward,
acting adjutant general, has issued gem
eral order in regard to the cases of members
of volunteer organizations who enlisted
therefrom in the regular army 1t is en-
planatory of a previous general order issued
in September last prescribing that such men
will be given credit for the service in the
volunteer army. The Endorsement required
by the regulations on the enlistment papers
of men who have served in the volunteer
army, and subsequently enlist in the regu-
lar army, results in giving such soldiers
credit on the records of the department for
time actively served in the volunteer army,
but without intention that the term of en-
listment or re-enlistment in the regular
army shall be shortened by reason of the vol
unteer service. According to the order such
soldiers begin new enlistment in the reg
ular army for the full term of three years
and their clothing allowance likewise begins
With the first years rates. The age limit of
thirty-five years fol, original enlistments in
the regular army does not apply in such
cases. The principal advantages, however,
accrue to those who re-enlist in the regular
discharge from the volunteer army In their
cases the time actually served in the vollln-
teers is added to the time served in the
regular army in computing the soldiers
service pay. from time to time,'i

during the war may be informed that they

issued an order ravoking the previous order
and announcing that its provisions will not

listed or re-enlsted in the regular army
