THE OHIO MAN.
His Good and Bad Traits as Shown Up
This Week.
New York Star.1

Ohio, will not commend itself to quiet
people. Gunpowder used as means of
the liquor traffic is in advance
of the age, and although the blowing up
of saloon by the temperance people
proved entirely effectual, the example is
not one to be generally initiated. The
plan of blowing up the saloon keepers by
Praying bands was much sIfer, and had
the redeeming merit of being inside the
limits prescribed by law.
New York world.l
The British Cabul mission is vacant,
but in the passenger lists Of the outgoing
steamers we observe no indications OF an
exodus of Ohio statesmen anxious to
swear allegiance to the Queen and put in
their applications and credentials.
Lafayette Dispatch
An Ohio man had his neck broken
while trying to break colt. The safest
way to break colt is to hire one Of our
creditors to do it.

We have received from Sandusky, O.,
the first copy of small paper called the
Ice and Fish News. The managing edi-
tor is Mr.. H. d. Seal. When the paper
enlarges we suppose they will get whale
to edit it.
Hon. Charles Foster, the Republican
candidate for Governor in Ohio, has
worn out his voice completely and is able
now to whisper few words to the vast
audience which assemble to hear him
speak. But while he stands on the plat
form and smiles and grimaces a trusted
agent goes through the crowd quietly
measuring the boys for new shoes.
Cincinnati has an intellectual Coroner
named Carrick who has deduced the fact,
after much fumbling over "demnition-
moist unpleasant bodies" that inhdelity
is the cause of suicide. If Bob IngersolPs
party continues to grow the Coroners will
all be riding in carriages and living in
brown-stone houses.
[Chicago Times.
Comfy should hasten back to his post.
Our relations with the Sandwich Islands
may become sadly involved during his
| absence.
[Chicago Tribure.]
It is said that Mr.. Hayes intends to
offer to appoint the next Ohio man who
wants office Postmaster at Memphis.
New Orleans Democrat.1
The Westervilie plan has doomed over
the frontiers of Ohio and entered Indi-
ana This time it is the anti-temperance
element that adopts it. A few days ago
Temperance lecturer was waited upon
by one hundred and fifty citizens of Mon
roeville, Ind, and ordered to leave the
town. The order was Immediately obeyed.
Whether this was done as an offset to the
blowing up of the liquor-selling hotel
keeper at Westerville, O., does not ap-
pear. This thing of violence offered to
men for opinions sake is becoming en-
tirely too common in the North.
[Chicago Tribune.l
General Schenck is said to be very
low. Let us suggest as appropriate last
words, MANY are called but few hold
four aces"

Foster is said to be the champion pota.
to-producer of Ohio. He is, then, the
tubercular candidate. 1t is thought he
will have consumption of votes.
New York Sum-
At the critical moment in the Ohit
campaign Jefferson Davis positively de
clined to be considered candidate fol
United States Senator from Mississippi
This was a sad reverse for the loyal co
horts of the battle SCARED Foster. Blu
Field Marshal Murat Halstead, who's
fertility of resources is only equaled b.
his courage under di heartening circum

out as Democratic candidate for Vice
President.

Cincinnati is ninety years old, and We
very wicked. "Three hundred and twer

whisky in one week at retail is har
record for centenaran.
New Orleans Democrat.
