Secretary sherman's friends are by no means
willing to concede the claims OF the sdVocates OF
the Maine Senator in Ohio. The Cleveland Leader IS
the chief organ Of the Blaine men IN that state ana
naturally makes as favorable showing as IL can
for its candidate According to Its table the dele
gates so far elected almost evenly divided De-
tween Sherman and Blaine. This is strenuously
denied by the secretary's friends however. Their
estimate places Sherman q long way ahead, Wild

A new danger to the Democratic party from the
exodus Is developing in Indiana. The coiored retu
gees who have scattered over the State are convert
ing many Democrats from the views they formerly
held concerning the situation OF affairs IN tue

About One-sixth of the delegates to the Illinois
Convention has been elected. Every county except
one has reported. and the list now stands 90 for
Blaine to SO for Grant.
Four States will appoint delegates to Chicago
this week. California will add twelve to the
Blaine column; Ohio will be practically solid for
Sherman; and Arkansas and South Carolina will
give twcnty-six votes toward nominating candi,
date whose election they have as much prospect OF
aiding they have of going to the moon IN an ele

The fight against third term looks we'll, but IL Is
by no means won. Not single Republican state
has elected Grant delegation to Chicago except
New-York and Pennsylvania, and outside OF these
States it is not probable he will get any votes IN
the convention from the North unless his friends
manage to save fraction of the delegation IN Illi-
nois The failure of tho GRANTEES to send Q solid
delegation from Georgia will be serious blow TO
their hopes; for it not only takes away nearly Q
score Of needed votes but destroys the Illusion OF
pold South for Grant. While, however the 0ppo-
nents Of third term may we'll feel encouraged over
the prospect they should not be beguiled into re-
hitting any effort against It, The vote nom nc nc
state should be considered safe until after 1t mas

The election Of delegates in Hamilton and Cuya-
| hoRa Counties has decided the complexion OF tho
! Ohio Convention. 1t will be for Sherman by q
| largo majority. With q delegation to Chicago from
his own State practically solid in his favor the
boom for the Secretary of the Treasury will take
| long lean ahead.
