THE Washington Post thinks that If
Mr.. SHERMAN keeps his worl and de-
clines togo before the Chicago COnyen-
ton unless backed by the iull vote Of
Ohio, he must depend on BLAINK's mag
nanimity to let him in. Mr.. BLAINE Gun
control some OF the Ohio delegates.
There isn't the least question on this
point Ii he wants their votes on the
first ballot he will get them. There is
more than one Ohio district that is as
enthusiastic for BLAINE as any district
in Kansas. 1t may be for his interest
to coneiliate the SHERMAN faction, in the
hope OF rcciprocating when SnERNAN's
name shall have been Withdrawn. But
il he insists on making his full show Of
strength at the start SHERMAN will be
shut out il he adheres TO his pledge.
lie can't possibly get the united support
OF Ohio without the consent OF BLAINE.

has been found that the number OF per-
sons who cannot distinguish green from

posed, and many accidents have no
doubt been due to this incspacity. The
