1t must occur to Thurman that by taking the
stump for Ewing he is virtually assisting at his own
political funeral.
If Ewing hasn't tapped the barrel, what is he
going to do to satisfy tine aroused appetite Of the
Ohio brethren for that MONEY? Thereu be an

The Democrats are trying their best to invent
Jealous quarrel between Sherman and Blaine while
the former is in Maine. As Blaine asked him to
come this is as hopeless as II is stupid.
A recent visitor to Cipher Alley says he found
Tden so absorbed in politics that it impossible
TO gain his attention for purely business CONVEX
sation. The lively rafting of the still hunt wires
shows that his mind is fully occupied
That Nincompoop Bureau paragraph about the
enormous reductions which IldeD effected in New
York state taxes is running in the Missouri papers
Just now. If the average Democratic reader has
any memory he must be uncOmmOnOnly tired OF
perusng that clumsy fiction which has been stuck
under ms every week or two for the past three
years.
General Hckenlooper, the Republican candidate
for ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS of Ohio expects to see his
party successful with 25O 600 majority spare. He
saw, the course of the Confederate Brigadiers in
Congress will be the chief influence at work for the
Republicans the country is alarmed and not with
out reason this question makes It impossible to
compare the probable party vote of this year with
that at the last election, for il brings In entirely
new issue. The Generals reasoning Is correct here.
That story from Washington about the lack of
funds in the ID mocratic treasury of Ohio does not
necessarily conflict with the rumor of Tildens
tribution to Ewing. A condition of that cOntribu-
ton was that Tilden's private agents should dis
burse It, and that none OF il should 60 through the
hands of the committee. THIS is like TIlden. He
never squanders his moral forces" but always
sees to it that they 60 directly to the spot where
| they will do the most good. The Ono brethren
may as well make up Their minds, however that
they Will be refreshed win no sucn sum as 100,
coo. If they get the help Of $4,000 they will be
! unCOmmOnlY lucky.
Evidence accumulates that the Pennsylvania
Democratic Convention was purely Tilden dem
| onstration. The Tilden organs in this State are
| publishing long letters about it, claiming that 1t
| represented Tiden's views aud sounded his war
| cry for 1850. No one has ever questioned his po-
litical sagacty and he shows it anew by fore
seeing the speedy collapse of the Greenback party
and of the whole soft-money issue. The large crops
and the new business activity which is everywhere
springIng up viii put an end TO the croakers and
0uacks i'm tnance, and convince the people that in
honest money alone Is there genuine prosperity.
