President result Of an Interview
With the old President Maker.

Special dispatch to Cincinnati Enquirer. ]
WASHINGTON, November Is "A long
interview with Hon. Montgomery Blair
is printed here to-day on the presidential
campaign. Mr.. Blair roundly denounced
Grant as an ignorant man, with q strong
will, that compels congress to obey him
in all things. Let the Democratic party,
as an organization, stand back and let the
field be kept clear 10 the dissffscted and
independent Republicans. The Missouri
programme suits me. There the Radicals
were defeated through this kind Of CO.
operation. Let the Radicals call their
convention and nominate Grant, and then
let the independent Republicans bolt and
nominate whoever they please, and then
the Democrats rally to his support. This
is the way Lincoln got in in 1860, and in
this way Grant can easily be defeated"
