pEMocRATTc COUNTY TICKET.
The Situation,

In q few days the result in Indiana and
Ohio viii be known to the people and the
outcome Of the presidential election parti-
ally, if not positively. settled. In the tor
mer state the canvass has been the most
exciting ever cenducted-boths sides using
every possible exertion to carry the state
for the effect on the November elections
In 1875 the state of Indiana was Demo
cratic By 5 l515 plurality, while Ohio gave
Republican majority Of Q, TAT and plural
ity of 1916. To 1873 in Indiana the Demo
cratic plurality was IA, 113, andin 1879 Ohio
gave Foster. Republican. for governor
1879 plurality. and q majority over all o.
1852. In these last elections there was
lively interest, but not of that intense
nature which now prevails. In Indiana in
1878, the Greenbackers polled $4,000
votes. and were strongest 10 Republican
districts. In Ohio, it is known that IN
1879, 10000 Democrats did not vote.
while the Republicans got out every voter
they had, polling the largest Republican
vote eyer cast in the state. This year
the Democrats will all vote in Ohio and in
Indiana, and 1t is safe to claim Indiana for
the Democrats. while Ohio is fairly
doubtful state. with good chance for the
Democracy to wins IF Indiana goes DEM
ocratic and Ohio Republican. the balance
is in favor of Hancock, and virtually settles
the election, and if both go Democratic,
Gar6eld's managers may rs well give up
the contest without any further effort. as
in that event. there will be regular land
slide 10 Hancock. The Democrats have
decidedly the best of the contest thus far.
as they can win without Ohio. while the
Republicans must have that state and
New York to elect, Garfield. On
the whole the prospects are bright
for the election of Hancock.
whileGarfeld's chances are far from h&tter-
ing. There is a marked contrast, too, in
the enthusiasm for Hancock as compared
with that for Garfield. The rank and file
OF the Democrats are at work-doing all
they can for the success of the gallant
leader Hancock. They feel proud of him
and proudly say-"We have a candidate
without STAIN"
With 1.-THE Republicans it is different.
The rank and file do not enthuse except by
constant urging. and even then there 10 no
such confidence pervading the Republican
ranks as prevails in the Democratic camp.
They feel lthat mistake was made in
nominating Garfeld-that he is load to
carry. and requiring every Republican to
be an apologist. This is disheartening
to any party-and is telling on the Repub-
licans everywhere, Gen. Hancock's election
is as certainsas anything can be. while
darteld's prospects are gloomy beyond
description. This is the Democratic year.
and If Indiana gives Democrats major
ity on Tuesday, there will be such a
stampede to the Democratic column as
will demoralizs the Garfield ranks beyond
the hope of recovery. In that event moth
ing that Republican Ingenuity can con-
ceive, will prevent the triumphant election
of Hancock and English

It Ia the old Grant again.
From Chieaoo Times


The people of this country have. for SO
long q time. been gazing at Grant as the
recipient of high honors rosmotber Datlons
that they have fallen into the habit OF
looking at him as O sort OF demigod.
Remembering him as the guest of the
queen of England; recalling the mighty
receptions which he received when he re-
turned to this country, men had dropped
in the way of thinking that he is superior
character. The old. origiual Grant was,
for the time, forgotten.
Within the last week, If there have
been those who had forgotten that there
was another sort of Grant than the one
who was the honored guest of the world,
they were rea.lnded of the fact in a man
ner which, TO pat il ct its mildest, was en-
phatic. The demigod went out of sight
as suddenly as the fame OF an extinguish-
ed candle; and there came into his place
the same old Grant who was once dlsmiss-
ed the army for the indecent behavior;
who gained q reputation during the war OF
beng the greatest butcher as well as the
most Incorporate man of the age; who
was the brother-in law of Casey; who was
the centre of the most stupendous ring Of
official scoundrels of modern times; who
was accused and proved guilty of unmiti-
gated lying WHen ne SdSe Wy hsS FoSttion

and who desired his reelection In order
that the work of pluDderi0g the nation
might be resumed with impunity. sl
All these facts and scores of others are
being forced into recollection by the posi-
ton which Grant has lately taken. He
