THE OCTOBER STRUGGLE.
CENTRAL OHIO.

(,oIuMBus, Sept 27.-I have Travelled extern
olv I'm the central portion of this great State, and have
TO obtain correct information from unbiased
sources upon the political situaon. ThofGrant men in
this region thoroughly organized have plenty OF
money and tho postmastcrs do their accustomed duty in
the way Of distributing Grant documents, franked by
some valorOus M. c. In this the Xllth Distrlct INC
Liberals aud Democrats have nominated the Hon. hugh
J. Jewett one OF the purest Of public men, ana
the strongest nomination that could BIO made mo
counties composing this district Franklin Picka
way Fairfield and Perry. The Democratic majority IN
the district is 1914 and Mr.. Greeley Will receive IN inc
district alone majority OF not less than $500 The LID
era movement in the counties named Is very strong
and numbers among its adhcrents some OF inc most III

Wyandotte Crawford Richland, and Ashland. and the
Democratic majority is about $780, Berry Is the Deral
and Democratic candidate. His majority this Fan VIII
not be less than 1000 and the Liberals are active and

The Xth District is composed Of the Counties OF Han

Gratis and Liberals have placed In nomination the Hon
Rush r. Sloane, heretofore Republican OF large IN
1ueuco sloane is a of large wealth, and Is Presi-
dent of the Sandusky Railroad, and as tho majority
against him on the Grant vote is but about 900 have no
doubt OF his ability to be elected over Foster the Grant
candidate As both aspirants are wealthy men, there
will be no legitimate appliance known to political war
fare which will be left unused. The members OF
Greeley and Brown Clubs in this district composed OF
men who have heretofore been Republicans number at
present about 1000 and Mr. Greeeys majority in the
Xth District will reach 800.
The Vth District embraces the Counties OF Defiance,
Paulding, PuItlm, Van Vert Allen, Mercer Anglaze,
and Shelby. The majority is over 5000 Democratic.
Although this is the district that the Grant men hoped
to make large gains in on account OF little early op

CHEERING PROSPECTS.
TO the Edffor Of The Tribune.
SIR: Our opponents have just awakened to
their danger and have alarmed for this State.
They may well be- and believe with continuation of
our efforts We will carry Ohio for Greeley sure. Our
October election will tell, but shall not give largo
vote on the State ticket Greeley. Changes
taking place constantly, and there Is more friendly feel
ing among the Liberal Republicans in respect to voting
the State ticket We lack opponents organization,
and powder has been scarce and hard TO raise while
our opponents have plenty and using 1t freely among
some OF our men, In making up your ngures Tor ONO
against since 1861 Will have about 5000 OF the
new coored votes they making 1900 In all. Our Lib
era strength In this county got from the townships
+ nassed through them. IL Is $50 known; many yet
doubtful Bourbon Democrats yet In doubt about 90 all
told Logan, Champaign, and Clark have fully 900 Lib
erals enough TO give us the state Ny 10000
