The official returns have not all come in yet, but so far as they have come in they have given me this useful mforma-1 Lion, . . . tr.at if it had been a presidential year the Democrats would have had a majority of about SO in the electoral college. The Big Meaning. "Fortunately or unforttunately, this j is not a presidential year; but the thing is significant to me for this reason: A great many people have been speaking of the Democratic party as a minority party. Well, if it is, it is Dot so much, of a minority party as the Republican, and as between the minorities, I think we can claim to belong to the larger minority. TY.:e tnoral oif that . . . that neither party in its regular membership has a majority. I do not want to make the independent voter too proud of himself, but I haiv~e got to admit that ne is our doss; and 1 am tx>una to admit that the things that he wants sire, so far as I fnave seen them mentioned, things that I want. "I am not an independent voter, hut I hope 'I can claim to foe an independent person, and?I want to say this distinctly?I do not love any party any longer than it continues to serve the immediate pressing needs of America. I have 'been bred in tho Democratic party, but I love America a. great deal more than I love the Democratic party, and when the Democratic party thinks that is an end to itself :hen I rise up and dissent. It is a means to an end, and its power depends, and ought to depend, upon its showing that it knows what America needs, and if ready to ?ive it what it needs. That is the reason I say to the independent voter, Viotm ar/vf no i r-? tV?o nQ 1 ttj nf TA11V ;uu 11UTC feV/C u-o Ali. 1,11^ V/X. J \s band.

"I want to make every independent voter of this county a Democrat. It is a little cold and lonely out wnere tie is, because, though he holds the balance of power, he is not the majority, and I want him to come in where it is warm. I want him to come in where there is a lot of good society, good citizenship, where there are great emotions. That is what I miss j in the Republican party; they do not seem to have any great emotions. I TT:ey seem to think a lot of things, old j things, but they do not seem to have any enthusiasm about anything. "Now there is one thing I have got a great enthusiasm about, I might al mo-st say a recKiess entnusiasm, and that is human liberty. The governor has just now spoken about watchful waiting in Mexico. I want to say a word about Mexico, or not so muchabout Mexico as about our attitude towards Mexico. I hold it as a fundamenal principle and so do you, that every people has the right to determine in its form of government; and until this recent revolution in Mexico, MYT+il tVin nrP i~na.

"That is wfcat I mean by a great emotion, the great emotion of sympathy. Do you suppose that the American people are ever going to count a small amount of material benefit and advantage to people do Ing business in Mexico against the liberties and the permanent happiness af the (Mexican people. Have not f?uro"pean nations taken as long as they wanted and spilt as much blood is they pleased in settling their affair* and shall we deny that to Mexico because she is weak? No, I say!

"And I know when I speak tiie .hir.gs (not merely from the generous response with which they have just n ;t from yen, but from my long time knowledge of the American people) ;hat that is the seniiment of the American people. "With. all due respect to editors of i-rt/iit ni'w.sj.aix.-rs, i have to say to t:., t;i t f I never take my opinion o:' iiie American sentiment from their editorials.

There may come a time when the American peoI pie will have to judge whether I know what I am talking about or not. But at least for two years more i am irree to think that I do, witto- a great comfort in immunity for the time being. "It is, by the way, a '.ery comforting thought that the next congress of 1 the United States is going to be very safely Democratic and, therefore, we can altogether feel as much confidence as Jackson did, that we know what we are about. You know Jacksan used to think that everybody wno disagreed with him was an enemy of the country. I have never got quite that far in my thought, but I have ventured to think that they did not i know what wprp talking about. knowing that my bellow Democrats expected me to live irp to the full stature of Jacksonian Democarcy. . . Only Its Fears. "I have 'been talking with business men recently about the present state of mind of American (business. There is nothing the matter with American business except a state of mind. "I understand that your chamber of commerce here in Indianapolis is working now upon the motto: 'If you are going to buy it, buy it now.' "That is a .perfectly safe maxim to act on. It is just as safe to buy it now as ever will 'be, and if you start the buying there will be no end to it, and you will be a seller as well as ? buyer. I am just as sure of that as I can be because I "have taken counsel with the men who know. . . . I have looked on and tried to see what the interests of the country ! were in business, and I have taken I counsel with men who did know and [their counsel is uniform and all that | is needed in America now is to believe in the '.future, and I can assure you as one of those wi'jo speak for the Democratic party that it Is perfectly safe to believe in the future.
