In the fourth congressional district, Hon.
Samuel Hooper has been renominsted for con-
gress, and Edward H. Dunn has been noml-
mated for presidential elector.
i correspondent, writing to the New York
Evening Post from Stamford, Conn.,, September
%, says: Last evening Grant and Wilson
club was organized at this place, consisting of
forty-6ve democrats, who resolved TO vote for
Grant aud Wilson at the next presidential cleo
ton, and who have always previous to this
voted democratic ticket"
Colorado has just elected a republican dele
gate to congress by a majority of 1900. The
republican majority in 1870 was 1892, and in
1868 it was only II. This increase is no less
significant because Colorado is not a state, and
cannot participate in the presidential election.
Americans carry their political opinions with
them wherever they 90, and Colorado responds
to Maine in expressing the choice OF majority
of the people for republican control Of the ma
tional government.
The Mobile Register, a democratic Greeley
paper, reads the Cincinnati Commercial, the
New York Sun, and other ribald sheets, an
appropriate lecture for the indecency they have
displayed in reviling the daughter of President
Grant. Col. Forsyth knows how to be a gentle
man, and his rebuke of the inscriptions
cullOlS WHO nave pbIlHllleu LHtlI U3IEeu OF Tue
president to manifest itself in ill natured filings
at the innocent members of his family, is
exceedingly appropriate.
Speaking of Greeley's speeches "Warrington"
says 81 don't know what sort of people they
have in Ohio aud Indiana, but if these speeches
help him any there, they must be an extraordi-
nary set. While they demonstrate his incapacity
in stronger light than ever, it would seem that
they ought to satisfy every dOuber that for sheer
and downright dishonesty and trickery we have
never seen his equal, as candidate for the pres
idency."
The New York Star, Greeley paper, is dis
turbed about the acceptance of O'Conor, which
it fears will draw off many democrats who,
down to the date of that acceptance, were for
Greeley, though he was a bitter pill to hundreds
of thousands of them. Many democrats, the
Star SAYS, of lnownothing proclivities, will vote
against Herman for governor. because he is a
Catholic. This feeling, which that paper thinks
will lose Herman thousands of votes, will pre-
vent Greeley also from getting those votes, from
a dislike men have Of scratching tickets. The
rural districts the Star is especially afraid of on
this question.
The Indianapolis Journal says: "The Chicago

whole calculation is based on this absurd claim.
There are not more than three counties in the
state that have over 100 liberal republicans, and
there are dozens of counties that have only six,
eight or ten. Moreover, out of the ninety-two
counties in the state, there are not more than
ten in which the straight democrats will not out
number the liberal republicans. The Tribune
assumes that there are 1900 liberal republic
cans in the state. We doubt if there are three
