Light in the West.

General Cook, of cavalry fame in the

headquarters to-day, said the party
would surely carry Indiana In the
next election. SIN the other cleo.
t!on," he said, "the counsels of tie
party were divided, but the frahds
perpetra;ed upon the Democracy by
the use of money and the importation
Of negroes has welded them together.
English says that the October cam.
palgn was Landers'. This is his
fight, and you will see come work
done there that will frighten and u.s.
tonish the Republicans. There is NO
dying or bemoaning in the West.
They arc at work heartily and enthu.
slastically. Ohio has eighteen thous-
and Republican majority. Now there
were $4,000 colored men imported
into Ohio for the purpose Of affecting
The vote. Just before the election
they sprung this ridiculous and absurd
tariff issue upon the State and the cleo
tlon was half over before the suppor-
tcrs ct Hancock could show the peo-
pie 1t was false cry and demagogi-
cal Republican report. The people
OF Ohio have awakened to the situa.
ton, and The tide has turned the other
way. They will have to do a. great
deal of work in Chic TO prevent it.
from going for Hancock in November
Their victory was on astonishing
thing TO the Republicans. They ex-
pected defeat and their tariff cry was
a desperate forlorn hope. They con-
not repeat their practices in that
State. They cannot repeat to tho
same extent. They cannot put a.
OOO more votes into the Hamilton
County ballot boxes than there are
adults over 81 years of age, nor l.
600 more in Columbus than there are
voting citizens. The people are
turning against them for their mil,
censed and unholy frauds" ."-Boston

General Slocum said that If Grant

say SO and SO, and, therefore, he is
what he is charged with being by Slo.

he has had this infamous charge ram
med down, his throat and, therefore,
there is no reason why anybody
should be shocked that such accusa-
tions are being made. Graut is no

around st. Louis-a",nr ucing dis

was Il tanners clcrll-aDd q very poor
one-in Galena. The war came
and ho alternatcd between big drunks
and big defeats, till there came a
time when, by giving three lives for
one rebel life, he managed to secure
some victories. There is nothing of
the lemigol in all this; hence, when
within few days people see this man
lying like an ordinary character, SLAM
dcring brother officer, and showing
himself to hc capable Of envy and
malice and mcanncss, and all that
sort of thing, there is no reason for
any ones being In the leas, surprs.

where he belongs. He received thin
gloss while he was travelling around
the world ; Il thin gloss for politencss
and regard for appearances bnt this
was very soon scratched off when he
came back here and went to running
around in his native wood. When
this was rubbed off there remained
The original Grant. There is no rca-
son why any one should be in The
least astonishcd.-Chicugo Times.
