EFFECT OF TAMsIANY BOLT.
The effect in Ohio of Tammany's bolt at Syracuse
is beginning to be apparent. That it should beget
here the same arguments for the encouragement Of
the republicans as those which have sprouted in
New York was to be expected, yet Murat Halstead.
after quoting IN the Commercial the HERAIDs article
OF last Saturday, says:-The probability il that the
coercive power of the democratic organization ap-
piled to Tammany will constantly reduce the pro-
portions of the bolt. and that the end the party
will be in the field for its regular nominees in
almost, IL not altogether its fun strength
Democrats were inclined, tor day or So to be
rather cast down. well disgusted by the split
bat there is such general deesation of Tamniany
Hall among Western men OF ali parties that demo-
Gratis appear determined to vie with republicans in
effort to give that organization its quetus.

are. the greenback vote of 3S 900 important
factor in the present contest The majority
Of the latter vote, o considerable proper
ton Of it, il diverted to the support Of the repub
the democratic ticket, might decide the issue.
Although campaign leaders publicly deny the fact.
happen to know that the utmost is being done on
both sides to pull the greenback party apart. One
of the shrewdest democrats in the State said the
other evening: :-"Ewing isn't fool for talking US
much he does on the money topic. The question
with US is. How many voters can we win over
from the national party" And the republicans
who are running the canvass. while they sound the
tocsn of alarm for the Union in every county, sell
dom fail to impress on greenbackers all the argu-
ments they devise for their return to the repub
lican fold. Mr.. Foster, republican candidate for
Governor carries around with him set Of tables in

hackers originally came from. and guiding him

subsequently chosen in the interest of Mr.. Frank
Hurd. The result was that the Convention ad-
jonrned without formally appointing delegates to
the Senatorial Convention, which met September 4.
aad was turned irto political circus by The friends
of Mr.. Hurd and General Steednan. Both
parties claimed to represent the county,
and at length the Convention, in the in
terest of harmony, recognized both. Steedman
received eighteen votes from Lucas county and his
opponent seventeen. majority of one for Stecd-
overcome the opposition to him from the other
delegates of the district coming from the five
ties of Fulton. Hancock, Henry. Putnam and Wood.
Mr.. Hurds candidate Dr. wilkins. of Fulton county,
nominated for State Senator the fifth ballot,
aud now republicans are speculating as to the num-
Der Of greenbackers that can be won over to help
the republican candidate. That the republican
nominee needs greenback support will be seen from
the vote in 1873 of the several counties composing
tho Senatorial district

Analysis of this table and that of the whole vote
FUst-Forty.three republican counties gave 10000
greenback votes.
Sccoad-Forty five democratic counties gave Is 900
greenback votes.
Mr.. Foster the republican candidate for Cover
nor, and other republican politicians. have not an
ayzed the greenoack vote precisely in this way but
claim that onethird of 1t went from the repubi-
can Western Reserve. another third from the repub-
lican western counties and the last third
the remainder OF the State, therefore the of it
originally republican. and can be brought back
into the republican, party. Although little slow
eny in the of their PROMISES they are right
in the first part OF their concusion-that the repub
lcan counties in Ohio contributed more strength to
the green hackers than the democratic counties did.
Third-ln counties where the greenbackers' votes
were most numerous both the republican and DEM
ocratic parties apparently could well afford to spare
them. Thus. in Cuyahoga county. where the green
back vote was 5.743 the republican majority over the
democrats was 4,73S In Huron, where the green
back vote was 1874 tho republican majority over
the democrats 1,S42. In Mahoning he green
back vote was l.1s4, and the republican major
ity over tho democrats SlS. At the same time in
Franklin county, whore tho grecnback vote was
1l42, the democratic majority over the republicans
was l.716. In Lucas county it was 227, whore the
grcenback vote EXCEEDED the vote OF either or the
two principal parties.
THE FACTIONS IN LUCAS COUNTY.
Here, in Lucas county, indeed, the greenback
party Its solitary stronghold. This Is the only
county where that party succeeded in cecting the o
OF its choice including the Mayor Of Toledo. the
Sheriff. members of the Legislature. the County
Attorney. County Auditor and more city Councilmen
than elected by republicans or democrats, al
though not quite plurality over the other MEM
bers of the Council. Here. consequently there is u
big fight for the greenback vote, especially among
the democratic politicians, whose local quarrels
have caused the ying that "there politics
to the square inch in Toledo than in any other city
in Ohio"
Two weeks ago primary meetings were held to
choose delegates to the Lucus County Democratic
Convention. which Convention was to select dele
gates to the District Senatorial Convention. There

1.-THE BABIES ON OUR BLOCK.

To THE EDITOR OF TIE HERAID:--
Allow space for complaint which think is
with cause. 1t is great shame that thousands Of
children infest streets. running, shouting quar-
reling, fighting and making much noise that
often people walking and talking together cannot
hear each others words. Others have
ing them elves by crossing and recrossing the
street in front OF horses and carriages in motion.
There are districts in which 1t is almost inn
possible to pass, the sidewalks filled with
children. Why is there. not law prohibiting
parents from allowing their children TO 20 unat-
tended into the streets? Why not make public
squares in districts which do not already have
them that children may play without being in
danger and without making nuisances of them
selves? The city of New York should be able to do
this much for its children. UN SENSE PENSEUR

A FAMILIAR COMPLAINT.

To TIE EDITOR OF THK HERALD:-
While crossing the New Jersey Central Railroad
Company ferry am amazed to the large number
ofladies standing in their cabin while gentlemen
have their seats. This should not be. The company
ought to instruct their guards to compel men va
cate their while ladies standing. The fact
Is our cabins disgustingly filthy, caused by
the villanous tobacco used aud expectorated. that
they more fit for pigs than men. and they drive
decent people out. But that is we should
not stand in the ladies' cabin when there are not
seats sufficient to accommodate them.
