Wednesday was between tho Grant
element with Taft and the Iiavrs-
Sherman combination with Foster.
The Grant movement, although yory
strong, received very black eye on
this occasion and the stalwarts are
much discomfittcd. The Democrats
meet on tho 4th, and on their convcn-
ton much interest centres. All tho
moves were planned before hand as
definitely as if the contest were game
ofchess. Had Sherman been nomi-
mated, Thurman would have opposed
him. Now, however, n less prominent
man is thought sufficient. Had Taft
been tho Republican choice, Bishop
would have beet rcnominated, as both
live In Cincinnati, the doubtful ground.
Taft was popular with the foreign
element because when chief Justice he
decided that the Bible should not be
read in the ptblic schools. On This
account, however, ho was weak with
the religious voters, while Bishop is q
prominent member Of the Christian or
Campbellitc church. Bishop is also the
I1lden candidate. But as Foster lives
in the northern part Of the State; and
several times carried q Democratic
district for Congress, the Democrats
are expected to ptit up q popular man
ffom that section Of the State against
him. General Ewing is most promi-
hcHt, MS he is in accord with the Green
back vote. General Americus v;
Rice comes next as he lost a leg In tile
war, and was the author of tho recent
pension bill. 1t is not known whc ther
the Grccnbackcrs or tho soldiers will
be bid for, but at present Ewing Is
thought to bic ahead. The Dc Nocrats
may give some Grecnbacker ono Of the
subordinate places on their ticket. The
conventions ofthese two parties meet
IN Colt'ml5'ts on the samo Cay, but it is
thought now that they will run separate
tckets. The contest will be close with
chances just now favoring the Rcpub-
llcans. Should the Democrats carry
Ohio, however, they will score strong
point, as Tildcn received twcnty-onc
votes more than majority in 1876,
with Ohio against him. We have
devoted this much space to Ohio to cx-
plain the situation there, because the
State will be such M Important factor
in 1880.

The Week in WASHINGTON.

!: Cohertss is getting tagged out with
inc warm weather and 1t is hard to
keep quorum together. Tho ways
anti means committee has decided to
propose an adjournment On tho 10Th
Of June. There is, however, al cle-
mcnt in the House, said to be headed
by Speaker Randall, that will refuse
to adjourn until the Warner silver bill
has been either killed in the Senate or
sent to the President. They favor the
bill, and although they have little hope
OF passing it, they wish to
THROW the responsibility of its defeat
upon the Republican party or the
President. Ohio is a great silver
State, aud somc Democrats believe
they can carry it Oh thot issue. Ran
dali is an astute party manager and
hence his endcavor to prolong the scs.
sion until the fate Of the bill be decid-
cd.
President Hayes has sent in his third
veto, this time disappearing Of the
abolition Of deputy marshals. He
goes over the same ground as before,
asserting the right Of the Federal
government to supervise Congrcssion-
81 elections, and claiming thai tho
presence Of deputy marshais Is rcou;.
site to give the supervisors power IN
controlling the election. It is said
that nc would approve bill dividing
the marshals between the parties; but
the Democrats, having already seen
him veto a bill which was framed
especially to meet his objections; will
hardly try him again: Little dc.,,t
exists that tlic appropriation h',;,s :.n,
be passed without ridcr-. ~ ,,,ot
case the extF@ session. will bovo ,,ao,' ,'
= democratic 'olunlcr, unless, a.
:" ..,ato' a..''' o'.l .ler says, it. was necessary
-. -, oto'.t to secure Democratic control
% Inc House before the vacant seats
Were tlled, BUTT Is better to rccftiv
a mistake as soon as possible without
committing additional blunders.
The Senate was enlivcned by q
sparring match between McDor.alI., of
Indiana, and the Rhode Islar.d Soma
tore, the former having intro auccd a
resolution to require whether Rhode
leland is not violating the constitution
by disfranchssiay pcrsons who own no
real estate. He pcrpctratcd tho cruel
joke that Rhode Island was of all tho
States the one least justified in making
this requirement when there Is not
near enough land in It to go round.
Senator Anthony got on his dignity
and made q complete States rights
ARGUMENT, claiming that Rhode Island
fought for her independence and
would regulate hor own local affairs.
This argument raised y laugh at the
expense Of the Republican Senator.
Blaine, as usual, put in his oar and
addnccd instances where three Geor-
gia Congressman were elected by
about seven thousand voters. Senator
Hill replied that tho Senator from
Maine was always fond Of quoting
tacts that he know nothing about, and
showed that whore there were contests
the vote of ono Georgia district cx-
ceedcd the total vote of both the Rhode
Island districts added together. Alto
gether Ben Hill is becoming tho most
formidable debater OH the Democratic
side, and Blaine and Edmunds anl,
Conkling are beginning to show some
caution about tackling him.
