TI)e Grirrm ,<)! I' M K 17 Griffin, Ga. Qriffln Is tiie liveliest, pluckiest, most pro gressive town in Georgia. This is no lijper bolical description, as the record of the last fire years will show. During that time it has built and put into most successful operation a $100,000 cotton factory and is now building another with nearly twiee the capital. It has pnt up a large iron and brass foundry, a fertiliser fac- ory, an immense ice and bottling works, a issh and blind factory, a broom factory opened up the finest granite quarry in the U L ited State*, and has many other enter¬ prises in ontoinplatiou.

With its five white and three colored churches, it is now building a $10,000 new Presbyterian church. It has increased its population by nearly one fifth. It has at¬ tracted around its borders fruit growers from Bearly every State in the Union, until it is bow surrounded on nearly every side by or¬ chards and vineyards. It is the home of the grape and its wine making capacity has doubled every year. It has successfully inaugurated a system of publio schools, with a seven years curriculum, second to none. This is part of the record of a half decade and simply shows the progress of an already admirable city, with the natural advantages •f having the finest climate, summer and winter, in the world.

I j Indian Ind., Oct. SO.—Nothing \i-oub, .so fairl illustrates republican despair as the re ent and almost total change of policy into which the party has been driven almost upon the eve of election. [To fully appreciate this, one has to re¬ call the attitude of Gen. Harrison at the opening of the campaign and the course of the state committee throughout the (Same. Both have been keyed upon “that high plane of statesmanship” which the candidate earl}- referred to in one of his Speeches, and which has now been found by the general himmif W> and his less expe¬ rienced assistants be wholly inade¬ quate to Indiana politics. This “high plane of statesmanship” has been noth¬ ing more nor less than an arrogant and high-handed game of bluff, coupled with repeated and most unw arranted assump¬ tions indulged in until they deceived not only lep i hearts abroad, but many of those who are placed in a position to know the truth. At the last moment, the republicans of Indiana have been forced to change their tactics. A prominent republican and ex-officer of state, who recognizes his party ex¬ tremities says: “We have made one great mistake in our campaign. Instead of bidding for the labor vote, which is beyond question to determine the result, as the democrats have done with to much success, we have lost time and op- ed portunitv \Ve by idly boasting that we own¬ it. have underestimated, or the parly leaders have, the intelligence of the laboring man. Why. do you know that the men who are conducting our campaign they had thought the strongest card was that British flag free trade circular they have been using in the face of the fact that every reading, intelligent laborer in the state knows it is a forgery! The democrats have conducted, by far paign the ablest and most effective cam¬ with this element. “Gen. Harri¬ son,” continued this speaker, “started into the campaign with an idea of his popularity friends. exalted by the flatteries of his tool It seems to me his whole canvass has been conducted upon the theory that his nomination gave him a majority of modestly of the votes of the state instead he had it assuming, as he ought, and that ciliation. to The gain policy by argument con¬ of his managers has beep a reflection of this. While the democrats ha \ e been doing hard work, strengthening up weak places and look¬ ing after the individual voter, they have spent the time in elegant quarters at the Denison hotel, receiving distinguished visitors from abroad and each man of them try ing to place himself first in Gen. Harrison's good gfraoes. A new scheme by the opposition was not met by ^ ‘rascally,’ counter stroke ‘damnable’ ; it was simply termed or a ‘lie’ by the party organ, and that was thought suffi-- oient. We have lost the labor vote by no\ properly estimating its intelligence.” quently Tne sentiment above expressed expressed is frp- met wherever yoq can “P get a re- ublican into confidential . talk. .
