TALK WITH AN OLD DEMOCRATIC EDITOR,

accidentally came across Mr.. Boss, who was walk
Ing arm-in-arm down Vine street with Sam Hunt,
In the OHIO Senate.
"Mr. Bloss, i" Intercepted the HERALD Representa-
Cincinnati Regarding the Reform SsSa aeptS'
"wel, sir, 9en say this much. am supposed TO
be the tone OF the democracy as far AZ the Cncin-
that Charles Francis Adams will be the nominee OF
the Reform and Reunion Convention, all reports In
regard to Trumbul and Palmer MISUNDERSTANDING
/" Mr.. BlOse understand that the Enquirer has
given up all hopes OF Davis chances, and will give
ITS hearty support to Trumbull.'

Presidencyfr
'"rhe way we stand is this Our first choice Is
Adams; our second Trunbul, and then comes
Greeley. Horace Greeley has more firm and warm
friends among the democracy OF Ohio than either
Trumbull, Palmer or Davis l have great faith in
the German decgate.n
II am Of the impression tina. the Enquirer was
once urgent for Davis ~ t!.su Z.
"you are wrong there. When Davis was
placed on the labor reform ticket as is candidate
for the Presidency tho Enquirer perhaps praised
the Justice as an able man; a gentleman OF culture
and refinement yet, at the same timc they never
endorsed him nor recommended him as a suitable
person Tor the democratic party to support"

party or do you propose to be independent, select
your own candidates and give them your support ~

same day. without any understanding whatever,
came out unequvocally for Adams. Ever since their

George W. Julian, who has been the chief of tn
