THE Ohio State Journal says
Senator Putnam is to be pre-
sented with q saddle by
his admirers, for his gallant
cavalry tactics as shown in
leading the Democrats of the
Senate. The Ross County Reg
lister must give the public a
picture of that side saddle or
forever lose its standing as a
first class illustrated journal.
