Ohio I'm October.

The New York Herald has also sent q DO
Iitical COMMISSIONS" out West to report
upon the campaign outlook. Concerning
Ohio he writes that he has interviewed SEN
ators Sherman and Thurman and General
Tom Ewing.
Senator Sherman doesn't see any reason
for doubt that the republicans will carry
Ohio next month, bat the O,tober election
there, he says, Is always q mixed up affair.
What with candidates for state offices, for
Congress, and for the little local positions he
could not undertake TO ma AXE any estimate OF
maJorities for this or that man; sit will be
republican majority, that Ia enough" In
November, he added, there Is not q shadow
OF q doubt ola great republican majority.
Senator Thurman thought II the election
were TO take place to-day, Ohio would 20
democratic, but did not seem so sanguine
as to what would be the result fortnight
hence. He thought many Of the republican
farmers would quietly vote for Tilden In a
way "to astonish that party" The farmers
ne seemed To think, were disposed to charge
The present low prices OF produce to the re-
publican party, and would vote against It.
They were bewailing their ill-fortuue that
win The greatest crop ever made, they were
poorer and worse Off than ever. Potatoes
were selling at . cents per bushel and hay
At IS ton. In answer to a question, he
saio tne RreenbAck men would vote for TIL
den almost TO q man; "It will be gall and
NORWOOD TO them to vote for TiIden, but
they will do IT."
Tom Ewing endorsed the opinion of Sena.
tor Thurman, that eff we couIi hold the
election tomorrow We could win without
Doubt" he thought the democrats could
reverse the majority OF 5000 against them
last year, even If the vote this year was as
heavy as that OF last, which was the largest
In the history OF the state. He said their de-
feat last year was owing altogether to the
Germans, who were alienated, not by the
financial but the religious question, the
secfarian school question, the Geghan
bill, &c. Gen. Ewing Is the apostle of soft
money in the West, and naturally he doesn't
Ike to admit that German dissfTection To |
rag money had anything 10 do with the
democratic defeat In Ohio last year. He
agrees with Senator Thurman In expecting
great gains 10 the democracy from the agri- |
cultural interest.
On the whole, IL would seem from thes.
interviews that leading republicans and |
democrats In Ohio look upon the resui |
there In october - likely to be close, aud |
that the democrats apprehend tn at their Cd
ponents may gain upon them between now
and the 10th OF October.

There Is some discrepancy OF statement
Between the campaign papers as to the mum.
Der In attendance at the "Boys In Blue" con-
vention at Indianapolis. The Cincinnati
Gazette (rep) says there were fifteen thou
sand In line; the Cincinnati KaQuirer (dem y
says there were but thirty-nve hundred
Probably an average OF the two statement
would about hit the mark.

Current Notes.

Whenever the question is mildly asked,
what has the old Democratic party doue to
deserve public confidence? the unfailing re-
ply is, "Look at Belknap." And Belknap
never voted anything but the Democratic
ticket until he got an office.-Hartf0rd COu-
rant.
Our first choice is James G. Blaine Of
Maine, whom we regard as the ablest and
strongest candidate before the American peo-
pie. Our choice for the Vice Presidency is
the present Secretary of the Treasury, Gen.
B. H. Bristow of Kentucky. Like Mr.. Blaine
he is young energetic, loyal, and incorrupti-
BILE, just the sort of man to awaken the en-
thusiasm of Young America.-Gold Hill
(Vev.) Ne,os.
The Democrats of Pennsylvania met in con-
vention and sent out declaration of faith
of faith in the potency of trimming and time
serving. They are evidently waiting on the
Wall.street machine at Washington, tremen-
dous before the national banks, and hoping
to carry the country on the grand proposition
that Republican man is more likely to break
the eighth commandment than Democratic
man.-CincinnGti Enquirer.
The country will not be greatly surprised
at the announcement that majority of the
House territorial committee are in favor of
admitting New Mexico; it became evident,
some time ago, that the "influences" behind
this impudent scheme were of unusual poten-
cy. But it still seems impossible that the
honesty and intelligence of the House should
surrender to them. Happy thought; bicen-
