SOME OHIO MEN
Who are Talked About by their Neigh
bOrS.

Indianapolis Newsl
Ohio men to the front as usual: Grant
and Sheridan are both Buckeyes"
Fort Wayne Sentinel .
The Hon. VIM. II. English says he is
not a candidate for any Office. How ec-
centric, especially for a man who was
born in Ohio. - ...7t ,sa ~
Louisville Commercially
The insurrection against the musical
tyranny which has oppressed Cincinnati
strikingly illustrates the wisdom of those
injunctions to be moderate in all things
which the Commercial has pressed so
constantly on the attention Of its read
ers. TO have Theodore Thomas and
trained. orchestra for a week Isl delight
and treat; to have him two weeks to-
gether is not bad, but to become grasp
ing and greedy, and determine to have
him for twelve months in the year, and
have him training hundred fddlers at
once during all that time, has its natural
result in such an outbreak as we chron-
icle in these few lines. ....
New Haven Union.I
Charley Foster Governor-elect of
Ohio, has fallen from grace among East
ern Republicans His election was
hailed as "great hard money triumph" "
but he now comes forward to say that
Sherman has destroyed his Presidential
chance by urging war on greenbacks,
and that the Republicans conld not carry
Ohio or any close Western State on chat
issue. Foster favors the retention of the
legal tender greenback and the full re-
monetization of silver, putting the dol
lar of our daddies on the same plane as
the gold dollar.
New York SUM-
The strange case is reported from Ohio
of middle-aged man, we'll dressed and
we'll hammered, who has been trying for
nine months past to remember who he
is and where he lives-thus far without
success. -s.. s.s--.r-
After next years elections there will
be a number Of middle-aged and elderly
men in this country who will envy this
Ohio man his happy gift of oblivion.
[Courier-Journall
The Hon. Charles Foster is in Wash
ington trying to get the craftsmanship Of
the National Republican Committee.
Hayes and the Cabinet indorse Charles,
and are pulling wires for him. Mr.. Fos-
ter is for John Sherman for President.
INDIANAPOLIS sentineL]
Mr.. Halstead intimates that he is too
busy to accept office. The Republican
party in 1880, as in 1876, is to be over
whelmingly defeated at the polls by the
Democratic party, and every Republican
conspirator will be wanted to defeat the
will of the people again. They will all
be busy. ... ....-.. .....
The Cincinnati Commercial publishes
wood cut which marvelously resem-
bles the entrance to a cemetery, and over
it the following: "The gates of our city
open to General u. s. Grant" But the
gates are not represented as open-they
are closely shut. 1t is good idea so far
as the cut resembles cemetery. Grant
is on the right road so far as he is mixed
in with the third term boomers. There
is political cemetery awaiting the en-
tire concern, and the gates will open in
due time. .r .-...
| Chicago Inter Ocean.
Cincinnati has reason to be glad of her
direct connections with the South
through her Southern Railroad, just
opened to Chattanooga. 1t has cost her
a round $4,000, 900 or more. The road
is built as substantially as any in the
United States, and will not only add
largely to the commerce of Cincinnati
but will double the values at points in
the South heretofore out Of reach of 6
direct market for their productions.

Stanley Matthews is authority for the
statement that Gen. Grant will be the
next Republican candidate for the Presi
dency. Candidate he may be; President
not at all probable.

essary to make public the fact that Gran
