The coutreversy that has recently taken
place regaidiujj the presidential campaign
of 1SS0 in Imliana has caused no little'
comment in political circles, net only in
the Koesicr state, but, throughout the
country. The very prominent gcntlnraen
takiug'part in this controversy have no
doubt added greatly te the importance of
a subject, which might, under different
circumstances, have passed by unnoticed.
The candidate for vice-president en tha
national Democratic ticket has given his
reasons why his own state suddenly turned
about and gave a majority for the Repub.
licau candidates. Gov. Hendricks, as a
matter of self-defense, was also compelled
te make a statement, but neither gentle
men has given the veal cause. The history
of that famous contest, beginning as far
back as 1879, has never been fully known
te the pcople of Indiana, and even te the
present day the Democratic managers are
igneraut of the means used by the Repub
licans. The Bourbons will be still mere
surprised when it is made clear that the
greatest service in aid of the election of the
entire Republican ticket was performed by
and through the managers of the Demo
cratic campaign committee.' It has been
given out, auddeubtlefcs generally believed
among Democrats, that Indiana was
carried by the Republicans by the free use
of money. This, however, is net the case,
as will appear hereafter.
As early as July, 1879, ex-Secretary
Blaine begun quietly te work his presi
dential campaign. He was shrewd enough
te t,ee that in Indiana there had for years
been a loebencss in the manner of conduct
ing the Republican canvas.-. He was im
pressed with the idaa that there had never
been made a trustworthy poll of the voters
of the state, and he believed, moreover,
that if the vote could be gotten out aud
the Republican factions united, it would be
found that Indiana was Republican state
Se impressed was he with this view that
he called te Washington a well known
and cucrsetic citizen of Indianapolis, and
te him confided his views, which were
thesc rii his friend. It was arranged that
work should at once begin. Cel. W. AV.
Dudley, the Uriitcd States marshal, who
was fully advised, at ence took charge of
the work and pushed it rapidly forward.
Cel. Dudley called te his aid a well known
correspondent of the Cincinnati Enquirer.
an ardent Republican. Mr. Woodward
visited Cincinnati and laid the plan" before
3ir. McLean, the argument used being
that the knowledge te be obtained through
this alliance, would net only be trust
worthy, but would in the end show the
influence of the Democratic organ -and
demonstrate the correctness of its reports.
After considering the matter, Mr. McLain
intimated that he was publishing a news
paper, aud te go ahead, hurt whom it
might.
The weik began during t'ue summer of
1879, the plan adopted being as fellows :
Cel. Dudley hent out circulars te all the
Republican township efliccrs, school
teachers, telegraph operators and post pest
ntastei.s, and fiem them lcccivcd trust
worthy reports. Mr. Woodward addressed
all the" Democratic county officers, such as
trustees, justices of the peace, read super
intendents and Democratic postmasters,
there being C4 of these in the state. This
work was, continued until completed in
December, when a comparison of the re
turns vras made, and, as suspected from
the liist, it was discovered that thcre had
never been a correct poll of the vote
made ; that theie were 470,000 voters, in
stead of 130,000 as shown by the Demo
cratic i.oll-beok. It was also ascertained
that Mr. Elaine was the choice of the In
diana Republicans for president. When
the-labor had been completed the lcsult
was pn.blisb.cd in the Cincinnati Enquirer,
by counties, and a copy el the paper was
mailed te every conespendent, but
the list of void's furnished by the
Democratic correspondents was wholly
ignercdj and that ued which had
been furnished by the Republicans, aud
probably te "this day every Democratic
correspondent is under the impression that
his liguves were useJl but they were net.
The circulars addie'sscd te Republicans
were confidential ; the most trustworthy
persons efa the state weie the persons who
furnished the information. Meney was
furnished for the distribution ei net less
than.e73,000 copies of the Enquirer, Sena Sena
eor Blaine sending 61,000 at one time and
000 at another. The poll of the vote, as
well as the political complexion of it, was
disheartening te the Democrats, but
coming aa it didi'rem a Democratic ergau,
it was accepted as Gepd truth, and in
fluenced no small number of wavering
vetcis. who were desirous of bcin;r en the
winning tide. After the Chicago couventieu I
the labor was continued, aud theso who
conducted it, notably Ce!. Dudley, saw
hew effectually the leaven was working.
When the Democratic" national con
vention assembled at Cincinnati there was
no little feeling manifested by the Indiana
delegation ; this, of course, was encour
aged by certain discreet Republicans who
steed in the background. The night be
fore the nomination of Gen. Hancock a
copy of the platform te ba adepted was
taken le the private room of Senater Veor-
hees. who, after having carefully read the
document epsnly opposed the adoption
of that clause referring te the tariff. IIe
then and there predicted that, should that
plank be incorporated into the platform,
it would lese Indiana te the Democracy.
He argued that the state had grown ra
pidly in manufactuics, that many were
being established, and that millions of
dollars were invested ; that Democratic
capitalists would net indorse the measure,
aud the result would be that theso inter
ests would combine and defeat the ticket.
He builded wiser than his party. After
Mr. English was nominated he was asked
if the nomination were a wise. one. His
answer was in effect that it was as geed
as any ; that the candidate would make
no dilference whatever ; that if defeat fol
lowed it would be en account of the con
struction of the .superstructure. He would
enter the breach, but net with any degrec
of confidence that success would reward
his efforts.
After the Democratic convention, when
both machines were put te work, the
shrewd manager, Cel. Dudley, saw au op ep op
pertunity te appropriate te his own use
the services of two gentlemen connected
with the Democratic bureau. Onegeutlc
man named Matthews was the private sec
retary of Mr. English, and attended te
the private correspendencs of the vice
president-expectant, while the ether, a
Mr. Parker, was assigned te the work of
polling the vote of the state. Mr. Parker
was requested te "aid the Enquirer, and,
with a view of serving the cause, received
for his service a regular salary of $100 a
month, as he believed, from the Enquirc-r.
Pftrker was induced te write a circular
calling upon the Democratic committee
men te send him all information possible,
together with a list of Democratic and
Republican voters. A stamped envelope
accompanied the circular, with Parker's
name printed thereon, and he, supposing
the information was for publication, di
rected the postmaster te place all mail,
matter addressed te him in a'separate box,
which was accordingly done. Parker in
nocently gave up the key, and never sus
pected that his mail was taken directly te
the rooms of the Republican committee,
but such was the case. Te iudicate hew
thorough and trustworthy the work of
Cel. Dudley was done, it is only neces
sary te say that the poll published in July
and September showed within 139 votes
what the plurality would be. By a com
parison of the poll made by Cel. Dudley
and that made by the Democrats te Parker
it was found that the Democratic estimate
was 449.000 voters, when in fact there
were 470,000. It was further ascertained
that abput 10 per cent, of the voters could
net be gotten te the polls. .
When ex-Senater Dersey, with Chauney
I. Filley and Geerge C. Gerhani, appeared
en the scene, details were made from
every department of the federal govern
ment. Timber agents were brought from
Washington territory and Oregen, from
Flerida, Mississippi and Alabama. Special
agents of the- posteffico department from
Texas, Arkansas and New England were
sent for, and even the talented moon meon moen
shiners in the mountain regions of Georgia
and North Carolina were given a holiday,
while the treasury agents formed a picket
line en the Kentucky border. But, singu
lar aud strange as it may appear, net one
of these men was given ene dollar of the
campaign fund te disburse. The Demo
cratic raauagers anticipated raids from
Republican plug uglics and repeaters
from Baltimore, Philadelphia and New
Yerk, and sent for detectives te watch
and ''knockers ".te bruise them. At the
suggestion of Mr. Jehn C. New the Repub
licans sent te Kansas, Iowa and Michigan
for all extra help of that kind which
seemed necessary te watch Democrats.
These men were stationed all ever
the state preceding the election. The le
gitimate expenses of the campaign ou the
Republican side were about 74,000, in
cluding $4,000 which, was expended iu ad
dition te the $1,000 contributed by Sena Sena
eor Blaine in netting a trustworthy poll of
the voters of the state- The credit of
carrying Indiana clearly belongs te Cel.
Dudley, although Mr. Dersoy has hereto
fore been awarded the honor. It will be
noticed that the poll of the state, which
was published in July, and ou which basis
the Republicans founded their .claims, was
correct in every respect. This work, and
the publication of the same in the Demo
cratic organ of the West, was worth thous
ands of Republican votes, and the labor
was finished befere Senater Dersey and
staff arrived in the state, aud that the re
sult would have been the same had he re
mained away is maintained by theso who
were in a position te knew. It is gener.
ally believed that there was sent te Mr.
Dersey net less thau $250,000 te use iu
iiie state, and by ethers it is claimed that
$100,000 was the amount sent. Be this as
it may, the.re is no record ' te show that
ever $55,000 was expended, and the re
mainder of the sum sent into the state,
whatever it may have beeu, it is charged,
stuck iu the pockets of theso in whose
hands it was placed for distribution.
On the day of the election Mr. B.irnum
was at Iudiauapelis, with headiiu.ivters at
room Ne. 49, in the Bates house. As late
as 5 o'clock in the afternoon of that day,
Mr. Barnum smd his private secretary
went te the office of Mr. Wui. II. Eug
lish, aud there gave te the Democratic
candidate for vice president ten five-hundred
dollar bills, for which he desired
one and two dollar notes. Mr. Engli.sh
took the money and went out among the
banks, and seen after re turned -with the
small bills wrapped up in an old news
paper. Mr. Barnum trusted implicitly te
the statements of the managers of the
Democratic committee, and se confident
was he that the state would be carried by
the Democracy that he left Iudiauapelitr
for .New 1 eik en the live e clock tram the
sajne afternoon, carrying back with him
$50,000 for which he found no use in In
diana. Te show mere clearly hew well Colonel
Dudley used the Democratic cemmittee as
a helper, it may be well te refer te the fol fel fol
lewingfacts, of the truthfulness of which
thcre is no doubt whatever : At Indianap
olis Tilde u had many warm friends, and,
after the Uoesier statesmen were iguercd
by the National convention, the Sage of
Gramercy Park was the choice, and Eng
lish, who was unpopular, was nven te
them as a sep, and that it was unpalata
ble there is de question. The entire ceun
try was anxious about Indiana, and (jrcn.
Garfield was in doubt. It was, therefore,
deemed advisable, abe'ut two weeks before
the election, te show te Gen. Garfield
that the Republicans were sure of the
state. The Republican poll list was pre
pared, but it was deemed desirable te se
cure, if possible, the poll book of the
Democratic committee. Hew te obtain it
was a problem net easily solved. At this
juueture a friend of Mr. Tilden
appeared en the scene, and through
him the desired book was secured
late en Saturday afternoon, and
about two weeks before the election,
aud at once found its way into the hands
of the Republicans. After having been
inspected by Cel. Dudley and Mr. Dersey,
a very discreet messenger was intrusted
with the book, and at once departed with
it for Menter, arriving there en Sunday
morning. Gen. Garfield, Cel. Swaim and
the messenger went where no ene would
ba likely te trespass upeu them, nnd there
and then was the Democratic poll-book of
Indiana submitted te the Republican can
didate for the presidency. The result of
the examination was highly gratifying te
Gen. Garfield, and disclosed the fact that
the Democrats only claimed the state by
12,000, and that, tee, ou a higher vote
than the Republican estimates were based
upon. The messenger at once returned,
and, early Monday morning, befere the
Democratic managers had arrived at their
headquarters, the book had been returned
te the vault, and its having been taken te
Menter was never suspected.
The charge made by cx-Gev. Hendricks
that the Indiana "Democrats were bought
up by the Republicans is an open
insult te the Democrats of that state, and
is disproved by solid, stern facts, and te
show that Mr. Dersey did net buy votes,
as charged, it is only necessary te refer te
the vote by precincts in every part of the
state in the November election, when, it
is admitted by all, that there were no de
tectives, no Untied States marshals, no
repeaters or plug-uglies at the polls, and
the difference en the entire vote of the
state en the Republican side was less than
COO, as compared with the vete polled in
October. The reflections cast upon Mr.
English by ax.Gev. Hendricks" are re
garded in Indiaua as in peer taste. Mr.
English did net assume te conduct the
campaign inTndiana ; the management of
it was exclusively under the control of
Senater McDonald, ex-Gov. Hcndjpksaud
William Fleming. If the ex-governor was
net a cordial superter of his fellow citizen
as a candidate for the vice presidency, his
Sersenal appeal te the Democrats of In
iana, written upon the lotter heads of
the state committee, calling upon the
Democratic voters te rally ami support the
ticket, was a manifesto thai should nevex
have been written, and if Mr. Hendricks
has aspirations it is net improbable that
this will be brought up against him.
The work Of Cel. Dudley, his energetic
labor in getting out of the ordinary rut
and interesting ministers, school teachers,
and ethers iu the cause, had the effect of
bringing together a new clement that had
never befere taken a part iu political con
tests ; the correctness of the reports sub
mitted by them was fully proved. The
reports received from the Democratic cor
respondents were substantially the same
as furnished years before. The publica
tion of the Republican poll in a Demo
cratic ergau was no doubt A very shrewd
move, and ene that contributed no little'
te Republicau success. The truthfulness
of this extraordinary history of the cam
paign in Indiana will without doubt be de
nied by many of both parties who we're net
in a position te knew hew Indiana was
carried by the Republicans. The story,
however, is based upon the statement of
one of the principal actors en the Repub
lican side a well-known and responsible
citizen of Indiana, who was intrusted
with delicate .responsibilities during the
famous contest, who was the messenger
that carried the Democratic poll-book te
Menter, aud who te day has in his posses
sion letters of the highest commendatory
character written by the murdered presi
dent. Democratic managers who contrib
uted se largely te the success of the Re
publican party are expected te deny the
statements made, but the authority upeu
which they are based comes directly from
such.a source as te preclude the possibil
ity of a successful denial of the facts as
given abpve.
X Hey's Letter.
Forwarded te the Autner or KeouMeutlena
of a Drummer Hey."
The following letter was forwarded by
the publishers of St. Nicholas te Rev.
-Harry M. Kieffer, of Norristown, author
of "Recollections .of a Drummer Bey,
published in that periodical :
Second Menth, leth, 1832
Te the Editor of St. Nicholas :
I have been much' interested in reading
"The Recollections of a Drummer Bey."
In your last number, " Feb.," he gives a
sketch of the battle of Gettysburg," and
en their return te Va., he speaks of a
town iu tli- northern part of Va. by the
name of V.'aterferd. In seeiug the name
of that town I called my mother's atten
tion te it. She was vdry glad te see it
meutiened ; hut was very sorry tbit there
was net mero said about it. Mama was
born there and lived thore all through the
war ; and it was the greatest Union town
in the Seuth?. Mama says nobody
loved tha Union soldiers better than
the people of Waterford. I should thiuk
she did ; for she married one of them.

Gentlkmkx : Yeu can count me a convert te
Dr. Themas' Eeleetric Oil. When your agent
came into my office te advertise your medi
cine. I classed It with the thousand and ene
nostrums hawked about the country and soul
as cure-alls. Fer fifteen or twenty yean I
have been suffering with that terrible disease.
Catarrh ; had lest my sense of smell and taste,
also my sight and hearing was taattaUlng. I
had previously tried scores et advertised rem
edies, but found enlv temporary relief. Last
fall I concluded te glve your Eclectrle Oil a
trial. Alter using part of the tlrst bottle 1
began te feel better. 0 I kept en using It
every pight belerc retiring. 1 am new most
happy te say I am nearly cured and feel better
than I have for 10 years. Seme ttme age 1 felt
a pricking sensation under one et my thumb
nails. I eeuld net imagine what caused It. It
telt hs if a piece et needle was under.the nail.
I tied up mv linger with a rag, freely satur
ating it witli the oil ; the pain ceased and In a
lew days a black spot made It appearance and
gradually Increased until a new naUgrew en.
These arc tacts voluntarily given, even
against afermer prejudice concerning patent
medicines. Yeu can use this testimony as you
see lit. If It will de any geed In getting suffer
ing humanity te try your medicine, and it re
lieves ethers as it has me, they wUlfeel thank
ful. Yours truly,
O. M.HOLCOMB.
