Samuel knorr, E.q, Of Bloomsbury,
last week gave in his adhesion to the Re
publicans, and told his old Dem ocratic
friends the reason. They do say in Co.
lumbia county, "ths Republican nominee
for Senator is Bound togo H."
Nor CAuGHT.-Some of Gen. Foster 5
friends attempted to entrap the Little Gil

RenaemJcr-Gen. Foster is one of the
men who made speeches in 1914 and hur-
rawed for "Polk, Dallas and the Tariff of
