Letter From Col. Fisher.
Rucyrus. Ohio, Jul

buCyTuS, OuIO, june 1OJ 10V1'
Dear Old Herald:-I am just in re-
ceipt of a kind invitation from the
officers of the Herald Correspond
ents" to join them in the annual pic
mic to be held on June 25, with GER
tain privileges and conditions pre-
scribed and intended to insure the
happiness and longevity of the par
Elephants. I regret very much that I
cannot be with you, and will ask you
to present the Compliments of the
Season" to Miss Clytie Wilnoit, on
my behalf, with apology for my alb
sence. She, of course, has no idea
who / am, as thirty-siX years have
elapsed since I was one of the Herald
family, but you can say that l am one
of the "has-beens," who counts the
days spent with the Herald among
the happiest of his existence. l say
happiest, because during those days
(from '65 to '6S) the issues were set
tied that fixed the destiny of our gov
eminent and our people, and they
were settled right; for which settle
ment the republican party has claim
ed much credit, and in my humble
Judgment is and always will be enti-
tied to the gratitude Of all liberty
loving people in the world. Abraham
Lincoln was the Standard Bearer:
the best loved and most abused man
of those days. His untimely death
at the hands of an assassin shocked
the world, and for the moment dazed
and stupefed the republican party. bus
the necessities of the situation were
such that the great leaders renewed
their efforts in behalf of the govern
ment and the union party pushed on
their forces to victory. Andrew
Johnson succeeded Mr.. Lincoln as the
standard bearer Of our party, but his
former affiliations and affections so
influenced him and his administers
ton, that it soon became patent that
he could not represent and execute
the will Of the republican party, and
so he was deposed as their eader,and
wound up his administration as an
ultra-demOcrat. General U. S.Grant,
commander-in-cnief Of our union ar
mics, was elected as Mr.. Lincoln's
successor as standard bearer of the
republican party, and as president of
the United States. He had been edu-
Gated by the government at West
Point. and at the presidential cleo
ton in 1856 had voted for Buchanan,
the democratic candidate for presi-
dent, but he was a Union man, and
the events that had transpired and
the awful experiences he had gone
through, between 1861 and 1868, had
made him a pronounced and good re-
publican. A few months after his
election, I retired from active poll
tice, and removed from Iowa to Colo.
RADIO, where other matters claimed
my time and attention, but nave new
er lost my interest in the republican
party. and have never failed to vote
the ticket straight" The record of
the Herald all these years has been
good Con the same lines as in '65 and
'6S)-a record of which the Society
Of Herald Correspondents" need new
er be ashamed.
Cautiously yours,
Cyrus w. Fisher.

The MARION
Marching Club Will be Conspicuous
This Year.

The Marion Club of Indianapolis,
which has become we'll known through
out the state on account of its great
political activity, has also secured a
great reputation for its Marching
Club during national campaigns.
In 1896 a new feature was adopted
by the Marion Club, in that March,
ing Club was established. The Club
was uniformed with brown Derby hats
blue serge coats and white trousers.
1t introduced, for the first time in the
United States, the shooting cane,
which is now used so generally on the
Fourth of July. The Club made a
few trips out i'll the state during that
campaign.
In 1900 the same uniform was adopt
ed, with the exception that they used
pearl hat and an automatic silk flag
umbrella. The reputation they made
in '96 made them much sought after
in 1900, and, as result, the March,
ing Club of the Marion Club made
trips all over Central Indiana to vari-
Gus Republican gatherings.
This year the Club has adopted a
blue serge suit, white spats, a mill
tary cap with monogram of the
,of the Club in gold on the front. They
will introduce a new electrical device
on the lapel of the coat, something
that has never been used before by a
Marching Club.
The band (which accompanies the
Marching Club is uniformed the same
as its members. By the time the cam
paign opens the Marching Club will
consist of five hundred members. It is
made up of young business men of the
city Of indianapolis and Republicans
who always work for the party on
election day.
The Marion Club proper has a thou.
sand members with waiting list. II
is the largest and strongest political
organization in the west. We antici
pate that the Marching Club this veal
will be one of the finest of the man,
that will take part in the campaign il
Indiana.
The present Marching Club Com
mittee, consists of c. Edgar Elliott
chairman; Fred F. Fox, S. A. Haas
Crate d. Bowen and G. Hawkins.
l.. ID. Rotschild, prominent Repub
llcan, better know as the little chief
takes an active part in the manage
ment of the Marching Club.
Mr.. Rotschild has had a good bit o
experience in this line and is wei
qualified to look after the interest
, of the Club.

THE DEMOCRATIC NOMI-
NEES.

The nomination Of Judge Alton
B. Parker, of New York, for the
presidency Of our great Republic
by the Democratic party, has met
with general enthusiasm and con-
graduation, by democrats from
all sections of the Union.
Judge Parker's running mate,
ex-senator Henry g. DAVIS, of
West Virginia, is another strong
factor in the coming race. Both
nominees are known in the politi-
cal world as men of ability, in
tegrity, patriotism, and a high
sense CT honor.
If elected, as we confidently
expect, We believe they will make
as wise and safe officials as ouI
country has ever known. Both
are men of fine executive ability,
sound common sense, and thor
ough knowledge CT the people
they are chosen to represent, but
with all this, they will need the
support of the democratic party
collectively and individually
While they may not be the first
choice of many members OF
this great party, they are now
our figure heads, and for them
we must unite and fight, without
dissension or division of facilities
and forces.
To few of us, as individuals
has the election of our nations
head ever meant anything more
than paltry pecuniary losses ant
gains, but the present issue il
more important. The rule of tn,
republican party means the reigr
of the trust in every form tina
can crush and grind the masses
1t means social equality at tn,
| White House, and the consequen
decentralization of the negro a
over the south, north, east an
west. Republican rule mean
hard times, corruption in hig,
places, and consequent ills. A
an enlightened, God fearing, in
dependent, self respecting people
we should join forces to down tn
party which has 50 long disgrac
ed our nation. With the rule G
the Democratic party will com
reconstruction, reform and I'm
limited progress. Assert you
: patriotism, by giving the part
I your hearty and enthusiastic sup
, port.
