CONVENTION ECHOES.

1--WE view with pleasure is a striking
phrase in the Republican platform, which
shows up well in contrast with the Gus
tomary Democratic expression, we view
with alarm. Richmond Item.
The Republicans of Indiana adopted
good platform of principles. yesterday, and
nominated an exceptionally strong ticket
both I'm personnel and from a geographical
point of View.-Connersville Times
Altogether the action of the convention
meets the hearty approval of Republicans
all through the State, and in it's list of can
didates and it's platform very little can be
found that will furnish material for the
opposition to feed upon There is no doubt
of the success Of the ticket at the election
in November.-South Bend Tribune.
Worthily and we'll did the convention
accomplish the high duties intrusted to its
deliberations. 1t has chosen a party plat
form, an able exposition of sound Repub-
lican principles, that will insure the best
interests of our State. a ticket was NOM
mated, a ticket of true blue Republicans,
men of master minds who Will conduct the
affairs of the State with honesy and in
! diligence, ticket which will lead the party
to one more sweeping V1ctory.-Muncie
Star.
Unquestionably Senator Beveridge's ad-
dress opening the Indiana Republican con-
vention is one of the most remarkable po-
and comprehensiveness it is complete. In
boldness Of utterance, originality and pre-
| cisiOn of statement il is unique. Every
/ vital public issue is taken up, discussed
! without subterfuge and the Republican po-
| sition eucidated without fear and rendered
| impregnable by unanswerable logic.-Mad-
| ison Courier.
The State ticket nominated by the Re
publicans yesterday is composed of splen-
! did material and will be a winner. There
/ is not a man on the ticket but is thor
! oughly capable and of high standing, both
as a citizen and a party worker The
/ Eighth congressional district would be bet
| ter pleased if il had "a representative
i the ticket. even though the Governor is
/ from among us. but aside from this there
can be complaint and there is every
/ thing to commend the ticket to the voters
| of the State. Madison county will roll up
/ handsome majority for that ticket.-An-
| derson Herald.
| The Republican state convention which
adjourned at Indianapolis last night at $50
o'clock while the band played "Auld Lang
! Syne" did a great work It proceeded to
the end without an unpleasant incident and
the convention heard with profit the key
note of the campaign contained in the bril-
liant speech of Senator Beveridge. From
| first to last the convention chose it's best
men, and in no other ticket in the history
| anced value of manhood. The platform is
| an able document promulgating the sound
principles and achievements of the Repub-
lican party.-Goshen News-Times.
The great convention is over and the Re
publicans of Indiana have named a win
ming ticket. 1t was perhaps the largest
convention ever held by the Republicans
in the State. Outside of the delegates
proper there were hundreds of others who
came to look OF and take hand in the
matter of nominating the ticket. The ticket
nominated is unexceptionable from head to
foot. The nominees are all able representa-
| tives of the party and proved To be the
| strongest in the race for the nominations
| to which they respectively aspired. There
| can be no doubt of the election of the en-
| tire ticket The Republican party of the
! State will stand as a unit for II and the
/ Democratic party cannot defeat it.-Colum-
bus Republican.
The conclusion of the monster meeting
held by the Republicans of the State of
Indiana justifes all predictions that the
Republicans of this State would put into
| positive expression the principles and the
policies of the campaign upon which the
country is just beginning The Nations
interest in the outcome OF this meeting
lies in the fact of its connection with the
| congressional elections which are to take
place this fall. The principles the ma
tiOnal policies which were outlined and
| were emphasized in the expressions OF tho
| platform OF the party do not dsappoint
| Republicans and will prove TO the country
thas the Republican party is still a ht lead
| er of those forces which unite to enlarge
the power OF the Nation. TO increase the
! efficiency of labor and Of production TO
| foster prosperity. encourage good govern
| anent and TO develop and extend the regard
| in which this Nation is held by the Nation
| ct large.-Elkhart Review.
