German Editor and Politician ON
Grant
Mr.. IIassaurrk. of Cincinnati. the
Wrllk known German Republican editor
aul politician, II now In thlS city, ant
talks very freely IN rrgard To- Grant and
the Presidency. To day hc said that
there were ten thousand German voters
IA Cincinnati, aud the great mass Oi
them arc opposed to Grant. u lao is
nominated he will not only lose the lib
crh German element which has acted
with the Republican party because u
wants honest money, but number OF
the oil liners. The Republican Mayor
and Stats Senator OF Cincinnati had
informed him that they would not vote
for Grant When asked iu regard % the
German newspapers hc remarked
that not single iirSt-
class German Republican newspaper
ayOrs his nomination. There are two
at Cleveland aud one OF those, the
Iu.fbJrf. states that Il has interviewed
llg leading GcrmJu business men and
that not one ui them ls for Grant. Helm
Iidrntally nutircl the tact that the Nddts
Z,.Euty. ui New York, and Carl Schurz's
Grrman organ al -. Louis will oppose
Grant even II he is nominated. MIR
IIa,slurek expressed the opinion that
ii GTant ia nominated that the Demo
Crats with such a man as BayaTd eau
easily carry Ohio. la tins connection
hc stated that there arc more German
voters In the State than the Republi-
cans in late wears have had majurities.
IIc further said that the Germans
are not opposed TO Grant because they
under estimate his military service but
because they are opposed t0a thlrd term.
ID is clear from what Mr.. HasSaurek
says that the Germans when they came
a. this country turned their backs for
ever on kings and mOuarChlcs and that
they wil! not go ior any man Tor frcsi-
dent who promises tO change our re-
publican government into central dcs-
pOtism.

Census COmwittce, Ol which MIR. Pen.
dleton, oi Ohio is chairman, and as it
has had but little work heretofore, It ~

ton among Democratic Senators. the
general complaint being that their rec
concentrations have been ignored and
an undue proportion Oi supervisors
given the Republicans While your
tions, Mr.. l.aidlcy. out II the two %
which West Virginia is entitled,' the
Virginia Senators did not gct one oi all
they recommended. Then there Is only
one Democrat out OF eight among
the Ohio supervisors. aud not one among
those named ior Connecticut A ma
iority OF Republicans have been nomi-
mated for Missouri, Tennessee, Virginia
y
respondent has heard Of auy number Of
the nominations which will lie opposed

Just reasons. Mr.. Hayes IN condemned

the law which says the Supervisors OF

iirmatiOn, and the West Virginia dele
cation will confer as TO General Iaiham's
