can rally to with enthusiasm and the plat

astic or grander State convention than that
of the Republican party this week at In
dlanapolls The issues, the men. the spirit
and confidence to insure a marvellous. tri-
umph in November were all there.-Madison
Courier.
The action of our State Republican con-
vention in coming out strongly for the gold
standard was in marked contrast with the
timid platform adopted at the Ohio conven-
tion which ignored the money question al
together. Indiana Republicans will do their
best for the cause of sound money.-Lafay-
cite Call.
The platform has the proper American
ring 1t is clear-cut, straight forward on all
questions. and vacillating or ambiguous on
nothing. The ticket nominated is clean in
its personality, strong in ability and Will
command the united enthusiastic support OF
the party. No party at no time ever went
before the people with better cause or
with brighter prospects of success.-Middle-
town News
The platform IS strong and clear in every
plank, and true to the mission of the party,
it takes advanced ground upon the practical,
pressing questions of the day. The ticket
nominated is an admirable one and gives
leve the Republicans of the State should
feel happy over the work of the conven-
ton and over the bright promises or a
glorious victory in ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

DIANA 4 The work done by the convention
speaks for itself. The ticket could not prob
ably have been made stronger than 1t is,
was worthy of the position he sought. The
platform is a document on which the Re-
publicans of Indiana can stand erect.-New
Albany Tribune.
The nomination by tho Republican state
convention of Hon. Alexander Bowling, of
New Albany, for judge of the Supreme
Court for the First judicial district, is graf
flying to all the people of this city-Repub-
licans, Democrats and Populists-for per-
sonal considerations and because he is an
honored citizen of New Albany and a gen
tleman of high and pure character and of
mastery legal ability.-New Albany Ledger
(Dem)
The Republican state convention was one
of the most enthusiastic and at the same
time most satisfactory of any ever held in
Indiana. The candidates who have been
named for office are all men of ability and
unquestioned Republicanism and further
more they possessed of the confidence
of their constituents. These facts together
with the fact that Democracy is as dead
as the proverbial door nail will insure their
election in Observation-Disclosures Tribune.
The Republicans nominated one of the
best tickets ever presented to the voters of
the State. Every candidate is eminently
qualified for the duties of the Office for
which he is nominated and every candidate
is honest and clean in every respect. The
platform is a clear-cut enunciation of the
views of the Republican party on all ques-
tons. The 1e-to-1 issue is fairly met and
publicans of Indiana stand.-Plymouth
News.
The convention will go down in history
as one of the most harmonious and salts
factory as to results of any that has been
held, at least for many a year. The platform
is a clean, faithful, honest faith of the Re
publican party, promising emphatically for
honest money. The ticket nominated is ex-
ceptionally good. We here in Wabash are
sorry that our candidate for the judgeship
was not selected, but as whole the ticket
is excellent. and will win at the polls this
fall.-Wabash Plain Dealer.
The convention will be remembered for
the generally harmonious feeling which ex-
listed. There was individual strife, as there
always is, for the, nominations, but aside
from this harmony prevailed and the work
of the convention was transacted in an ex-
peditious and intelligent manner resulting
in a ticket for which every Republican and
many members of other political parties
can vote with a consciousness that they are
laboring for the best interests of the great
State of Indiana.-South Bend Tribune.
The platform formulated by the State
convention of Republicans at Indianapolis
is a sound and patriotic declaration of prin-
ciples upon which every patriot can consci-
entiously stand. The renewed declaration
for sound money and decided opposition TO
the 16-toI fallacy will command the admi-
honest money The demand for a primary
election law is long step in advancement,
and the call for revision Of county and
township laws will be approved by all good
citizens.-Goshen News.
The State ticket is one of the best that has
ever been named by State convention and
every candidate is strong man. The con-
vention was one of the most harmonious
ever assembled, and the struggle for the
nominations proceeded with the best of good
nature Altogether, the party in Indiana is
platform that appeals to the conscience of
the great State, and has presented list of
candidates than which no better or stronger
has ever been named. It starts in for sue
cess. and that is what it will achieve-Ev-
