the bowels Of our country, but l VIII
strangle that anarchy in the coils or my
energy"

the methods of government in Venezuela
in these words: From this moment con-
secrate to the realization of that design all
the energies of my soul the resources or
the government, the humble prestge or my
sword my uncomfortable faith in the sue
cess of well-doing and this life, which has
been spared by torrent of bullets In a
hundred duelS with death.
IL find myself in the condition to fulhll
the mission with which I have been in
vested by Providence, and 1t Is my desire
to render myself worthy OF that mission.
Raising my stature, if need be, beyond the
limitations of nature, I shall chain events
and harness them to the car or victory IN
the very camp of the rebellion declare
myself in campaign. l am going TO trans
fuse into the operations OF the war the
enthusiasm of my faith, my nervous actlv-
ity and the efficacy of my personal direc-
tiOn.'

The statement in a New York paper
to the effect that Senator Fairbanks told
one of it's reporters that he would very
likely retire from politics at the end of his
present term in the Senate is so absurd
that it would not have been noticed had
it not appeared in a paper claiming to be
one of the most reliable in the country
the New York Times. Senator Fairbanks
is candidate for reelection, and he will
be reelected. The party is united on him.
In fact, all intelligent men in both parties
realize that Mr.. Fairbanks has served the
people of Indiana with marked ability and
success. The fact that he is a candidate
for reelection is contribution of positive
force to the Republicans in the campaign.
Indeed, the Journal is warranted in say
ing that few in the Senate are so for
tunate as TO approach reelection with
the entire confidence and unanimous sup
port which Mr.. Fairbanks is receiving from
his party in Indiana His candidacy in
sures the utmost harmony in the party
ranks.
