He went on to give his reasons further-''There arc
good many grcenbackcrs in this country;' but no
could not not say they would vote; there
moro republicans than democrats among those right
here; the Germans were mostly hard money; the
democrats never so united
Concerning tho issue between Bell and Barnes for
Secretary OF stac his opinion that Bell would get
large majority, not because no was SO popular as that
Barnes was very unpopular; IL didn't follow that
those didnt vote ior Barnes would vote Tor Bell;
great many republicans would not vote at all
ity last year and Bell would get an IN
crease this; the greenbackers would stick
pretty close TO tho republican ticket as to tho Pres
dency, Hayes would get a much larger vote than
Barnes and would run ahead OF Fosters VOTE possibly
200 ahead OF HIM in his own county, Cooper ana Cary
would have 200 300 Sandusky City and Eric
county together, but this proportion he didn't think
would extend To the other counIcs; tho farmers
intelligent and substantial class Of people and they
did not take Tho currency question into politics
Per contra tho republicans cipher and reason u out
follows The possible total democratic majority in
the three counties OF Seneca. sandusky and Hancock
will be 200; tho republican majority IN Huron county
will be AT least 200 to 3Oo throwing ihc decision Of
tho contest TO Erie county which usually gives 200 20
800 republican majority; hence
PosrER's ELEcrIoS is AssuREp.
Besides, he has competitor IN ms own county this
year he had two years ago. and he will naturally re-
duce the democratic majority therein. and Mr. Hudson
being a republican VINO went or with the liberals and
never came back, will be rejected by many democrats
who between tho two men, will vote Tor Foster in
preference Tho fact that this Is Governor Hayes dts
rict will materially help the republicans in October
rural DISTRICTS but there may bc some modification Of
th is rula In The cities. Foster will run 400 to 500
ahea6 OF Barnes. Hudson will carry SanGusky City,
but Will be defeated by the outside vote o the county
The battle will be fought IN Erie county.
"IIow about Hayes and TildcnY'
"Haycs viii sweep the district In November Lots
of democrats Will never to- tho polls TO vote for TIL
den, who rs greatly dlslikcd hereabout Many demo.
crats have turned republican within y lew days. There
was meeting tho other night at which cheers
gwen for JcG Davis and i've came out OF tho
crowd and went aud joined the republicans tho
spot But the democrats working very hard 10
beat Foster so that may appear that tho republicans
not carry Hayes owp district The district will
give Hayes 800 10 900, possibly 5000, majority"
Mr.. Benjamin r. Lee, the District Attorney at San
dusky, confirmed this view OF Mr. Fosters chances
The district was he admitted, democratic by about
1, 900 majority but Mr.. Foster had personal follow
ing and popularity which would insure him his cleo
ton.
But as the night Is really narrowed down to Erio
county and the issue lies between the city OF san
dnsky, whero Mr.. Hudson is an esteemed business
man. and which is likely TO carry by large major
ty the contest must undoubtedly prove close one
Ii justhes at least tho claim OF the Central Commit
tee at Columbus that they are

In Fosters district and shows again the exceed
ing wisdom with which tho democratic plan OF battle
has been laid out Sandusky cy being the key TO the
district aud their candidate, popular and wealthy
merchant, being taken thcrcfrom.
