Mr.. Hayes cider with a spoonful of
rye.
Kansas City Times (Dem,): Zach.
Chandler's black brow and red nose are
sort of pillar of cloud by day and pill
lar of fire by night to Republican
tramps.
Baltimore Gazette (Dem.): 1t can not
be denied that Mr.. Foster has certain
popularity with the masses. He is a
genial, whole-souled gentleman and ex-
tremely liberal in his expenditures.
Albany Journal (Rep.): We doubt
the story that any Republicans are coun-
selling compromise. The folly of such
a course is so apparent that it could meet
with no favor. The Republicans have
no need to compromise.
Louisville Post and News Just little
while ago and The Post and News was
saying that no man who was everywhere
called "Charley" could be elected to so
dignifed a position as Governor, but
those Republican people up in Ohio fail
to agree with us.
Chicago Telegraph (Rep.): Foster,
Ohio's nominee for Governor, is hardly
the caliber of man for the position. He
has large wealth and cheek, but no
special executive force. If Thurman is
put up against him, the latter ought to
have no trouble in winning.
New York Express Dem.): Governor
Hendricks is thoroughly in earnest in re-
fusing to play second fiddle to Tilden in
another campaign. The old ticket, so
far as he is concerned, can not be renom-
mated. And the old ticket, so far as
Tilden is concerned will not be renomi-
mated.
Boston Post (Dem.): New York re-
Gently developed rare humorist in the
person of a fellow who knocked two
ladies' heads together, because he thought
it would be funny. He is now in agony
for fear Michigan will hear of his rich
vein of humor and elect him to Con-
gress.
Philadelphia Press (Rep.): If the
Ohio Republicans would only insist upon
taking General Sherman for Governor,
Grant could be made General of the
army, and thus leave clear field for
Secretary Sherman. There ought to be
genius enough in the Sherman family to
arrange this.
Pittsburg Telegraph: The present is a
most auspicious time for our citizens to
abandon at least one well-worn rut. 1t
is good time for each and all to make
an end of repining over Pittsburg's woe
full want of musical culture, and over
the lack of musical appreciation which
exists among the furnaces of the Smoky
City.
Chicago Inter-Ocean (Rep): In the
nomination of the Hon. Charles Foster
for Governor, the Ohio Republicans yes
terday disappointed the radical members
of the party throughout the country
Yet the platform adopted is radical
enough for any, and it is more than
probable that Mr. Fosters personal mag
netism and his present enthusiastic stall
wartism stood him in lieu of better
record
Baltimore Gazette (Dem) Some peo-
pie are finding fault with the extra ses-
sion Of Congress on account of its long
evity. 1t should be remembered that
Mr.. Hayes called this session of Congress
because he couldn't have appropriations
for the support of the Government made
in the interest of the Republican party.
Mr.. Hayes is responsible for this Con
gress and we don't care if it sits until
next Christmas.
Chicago Tribune CRep.): There was
not man talked of for the nomination
who could more perfectly and with
greater enthusiasm unite and call out
the full Republican strength in Ohio
than Charles Foster; not man whose
candidacy would evoke warmer wishes
for success among the spectators of this
important struggle, which is to decide
who is to be Governor of Ohio, and Incl
dentaily, it may be, who is not TO be the
Democratic candidate for President in
$780,
Troy Times (Rep.): The unanimity of
Southern politicians in supporting every
measure calculated to weaken the public
credit and derange private business has
behind it a well-considered purpose, de-
sign to weaken Federal authority while
in hands other than their own, and to i'm
pair the prestige and influence of the
North for all time. Their advocacy of
Warmers Silver Bill is but coroIlary of
the scheme to withdraw the protection of
law from the ballot-box. Both are de-
velopments of one design, which is to Sc
cure the domination of Southern men
and ideas throughout the country, by de-
prlving the North of the power to make
! successful resistance.
