INTERVIEW WITH FREDERICK HAsSAUREK.
The HERALD's representative called upon Fred
crick Hassaurek, one Of the brightest German
Americans in the West, this "wednesday afternoon
at his office, the VOlEsbldn newspaper, in the
Court House edfce. Mr.. Hassaurek was putting
the finishing touches to q letter accepting, under

Journalist in the German language.

more than eighty years. the people have taken no
Presidents from the Supreme Bench, and 1t will not

the republican ticket for Lieutenant Governor Of
New York two years ago, is coming to Cincinnati.

politics after fifteen years. retirement, and he is
said to be very earnest for the liberal Convention
Another German Of force and well known to all
