Governor Robinson is right. The people will
deal wisely with the issue before then and elect
Mr. Cornell Governor.
One sure sign OF Democratic disaster is the carly
talk Of the party leaders concerning their course In
the next Congress They that they will send the
hot-heads the rear, and TO IL hatthe bunders
of the Extra Session are not repeated. This Is an
easy thlng to say. but a difficult thing 10 do The

Jefferson Davis, like Senator Hill, is unable to
member that there has been any contest in this
country for tho liberties Of the States since the

Ex-Congressman shellabarger writes from Ohio
news which has been coming from that State. He
says the prospect is fair for from 10000 to $4,000
majority for Foster and good working majority in
both branches OF the Legislature. The reports OF
quarrelling between the Ewing and Thurman fac
tions he adds are not at all exaggerated. for each
trying to cheat the other out OF the United States
SenatOrship Both factions are so bitter that they

The Massachusetts, Democrats are showing moro
skill in keeping out of Buffers net this year than
last. They are pretty well convinced that the Gen
erals following in the party is much smaller than it
was and that every day increases the number of
Democrats who are leaving him and returning TO
the old organization. For this reason they are de-
laying tho calling of their convention as long as
possible As tor Buffers delegates 10 the National
Convention, they are treated with cOuiemptuous IN
difference. Nobody has any idea that they would
ever be admitted To seats IN preference 10 regular
delegation. IL Is clear enoughto the old iine Mas
sachusetts Democrat at least-that the General mas
made mistake, and has placed himself nj the head

The Democrats say defeat means defeat for
a quarter OF a century. Ii does, dear brethren.
The Ohio campaign will be fought with great
vigor from this time till election day. Both sides
are preparing for the hardest kind Of work. The
Republicans are bringing ont their best speakers
and are determined 90 legitimate efforts to
secure the Legislature as we'll AS all the State
Offices. There many signs that the Democrats
have made raid in the East for funds, and have
had considerable success. Great pressure has been
brough ulon Tiden and IL is thought that the
barrel is much lighter than II was n week ago. At
least So 900 ~ said to have been raised IN Washing
ton alone. This is the usual Democratic way of
spending money in Ohio. They usually wait till
the last part of the campaign aud then pour out
money where il will do the most good They are
