OHIO SHOULD sTASD by SHERMAN.

THE NATIONAL REPUBLICAN hopes Ohio
will stand by SHERMAN. OF course il does.
1t is for GRANT, aud it knows that no man
can beat GRANT but BLAINE, aud that it is
for GRANTS interest to have SHERMAN, who
has no show whatever in tho Convention,
secure Ohio.--Sandusky Register.
THE NATIONAL REPUBLICAN does not
believe for one moment that either SHER-
MAN or BLAINE can beat GRANT and hence
it is not influenced by any preference be-
tween them in its hope that Ohio will stand
by SHERMAN 1t hopes so, for the reason
that il is the decent thing for Ohio to do,
and she cannot afford to do otherwise.
Then, again, the Register is more confident
than we are that il General GRANT should
not be nominated Mr.. BLAINE will be. II

Delegates,


Delegates.
Hon. George Spencer, late Senator from Ala.
bama, was in Chicago buying supplies for his
mining camp in Nevada recently. When a
reporter asked him how Southern Republicans
stood on the Presidential question. the ex-
Senator replied II am entirely out of poli-
tics, and intend remaining SO consequently
am not as familiar with the public as was a
few years ago"
How do you figure Alabama's vote in the
Chicago Convention Y
"Of the twenty delegates Alabama will send
here, sixteen will be for Grant. Sherman will
get the remaining four"
"Will Blaine get nothing from Alabama ~
Blaine will get nothing worth speaking Of
from any southern State"
3" Not from Florida2 1t is largely populated
from New England"
"Blaine has little to hope for from the New
England people. Massachusetts is much op-
posed to him"
Mr.. Spencer added that he had been much in
New York recently and was positive there
would bo no split in the delegations from that
State and Pennsylvania. They would be solid
for Grant. The only other delegations lie
knew about were those Of Nevada aud Colo.
RADIO, which would also be solid for Grant.

why population and wealth has not
increased in Texas as they have in
Kansas.
The observer will not fail to note
the contrast, and he will naturally
inquire why it exists. The two
states are not far apart, and there
is no great difference in the natural
advantages enjoyed by them, They
are both states in the American un-
ion, governed by the same ma
tional laws. But the local gov.
eminent and policy of the one
is republican and the other
democratic. The governor and
Legislature of Kansas is republican,
while that of Texas is democratic.
A large majority of the people Of
Texas vote the democratic ticket,
while an overwhelming majority of
those in Kansas vote the republican
ticket. The policy of Kansas has
been to encourage free schools while
the policy of Texas has been just
the opposite. The policy of the
republican party has been to en-
courage free schools and immigra
ton, while that has not been the
policy of the democratic party.

In another column will be found
an article copied from the editorial
columns Of the Waco (Texas) Tele-
phone, which, to the ordinary OBJ
server, contains a wholesome lesson.
A contrast is there presented be~
tween the States of Texas, and
Kansas, which may be studied with
profit by the people of the entire
south. With territory less than
half that of Texas, Kansas has, in
the last ten years, trebled its popu>
lation, while Texas has barely
doubled. The climate of Texas is
as good, if not better, than that of
Kansas, yet the latter has quadru-
pied its taxable wealth, while the
increase in the former has been
nothing remarkable.
There are reasons for these things,
and some of them are frankly given
by the Texas paper. The SUI
periority of the Kansas school
system is undoubtedly one of them

CINCINNATI commercial (lnd. KEEP
There are some marks OF Hancock
himself in the letter over his signature
published this morning, accepting the
Cincinnati nomination for the presi-
dency. He seems to have refreshed
himself for the task by reading the
resolutions of '9S. The system OF
| freshness is in the laborious recital of
the familiar definitions of the respec-
tive powers Of the nation and The
states. Old Virginia will be delighted.
The temper Of the habitual major gen,
eral appears also in the conclusion,
which has the,peremp.ory tone Of a
military order. There is more indi-
viduality in the letter than We had ex-
pected, and it is so we'll written, and
recites the commonpiaces with such an
air OF novelty, that we anticipate the
popularity of the document in the
party whose hopes respecting it have
been tinged with anxiety.
