NOT MUCH TO STRENGTHEN GRANTS CHANCES
From Scranton Tn.s (Dea)
We do not think the Radicals OF this State
have done much to strengthen Grants chances by The
nomination Of IIartranft FOR Governor The nomination
is generally accepted as triumph OF The corrupt Cam
eron influence. Forney and other influential members
of the party fought hard against It, and predicted tha'
unless other man was chosen Tor their standard
bearer things would be very doubtful next Antumn'
THE RING BRAvING PUBLIC OPINION.
Prom The Harrisburg Patriot tDeml .
DOHartranft's supporters imagine that Just crit
by mere buster and fustanl Why did they brave public
opDion in this nomination. Have the people OF Penn
OF their chief magistrate that the ring dare practice to
this extent on their emperf In spite OF appeal and OK
forced this candida to before The people he and they
must abide the They will find that the glamour OF

character of John F. artranf and on his fitness for the
office OF Governor OF PennsylVabIa

The great fact is that in this canvass the

is evident that Forney intends to fight on this
line all Summer. and to try and reconcile the defeat OF
Hartraft October with victory for Grant In Novem
Der sporadic impulse OF independence; 1t Is
q deliberate determination. Col. Forney is against Hart
and probably he could only be Induced to sustain Hart

From The Enquirer (1drainsfatonk -
1t il idle to assert that Gen. Hartranfts
nomination is such as should have been made by
claiming to represent the Republican masses OF the
State. While Gen. Hartranft is gentleman or many
good qualities and whose military services viii ever
entte him the gratitude OF his couatymen it Is
welestabshed fact that his nomination engineered
by Ring whose management OF the politics OF THIS stare
