When the Fgallaut sutler, Foster. gets
fairly warmed up in his campaign for the
governorship of Ohio, if he intends to
elect himself on John Sherman's financial
issues. it will be we'll for him to guard
himself in the matter of quoting the
great financier's' speeches. else he may
deliver himself in an ungarded moment of
chunks of the rabbid greenback speeches
made but few years ago by the now
Secretary of the Treasury. The calico
general will find fully as much trouble if
he shall attempt to elect himself on the is
sue of bayonet at the polls. For. as he
would warm up in the revolutionary to
the core" howl he might be called on by
the Revolutionary Democrats and Briga-
diers of Ohio to answer speeches made by
present members of the so-called President
Hayes Cabinet, as the following language
by Secretary of the State Evarts;
When men vote, and when their cho-
sen officers meet to conduct the affairs of
their political Governments, no soldier
can interfere This limit to their autagon
ism DO political party can safely pass"
Or such language as the following used
by the Secretary of War MoCrary, G s al
wart in excellent standing III the house
hold of Republcanism:
AN armed force in the neighborhood
of the polls is almost a necessity, men
ace to the voters and interference with
their freedom and independence. u

connndrum:
"A tree 100 feet high stands on the
bank Of stream sixty feet wide. At
what point should il be cut of so that
the end resting on the stump-the top
will just reach the opposite shore?"
We do not know, and really see no
reason for cutting the tree at all. If
there were coon in the top and hum
gry coIored Repub ic on the other
side. the thing might be justified. But
even then. the colored Republican should
be made 10 swim the stream and stand
guard while the other fellow spent an
hour or two securing the country in

stand guard and the colored Republican

best, on the whole. TO religiously observe

forced against those who violated its
