The Cincinnati daily star. [volume] ([Cincinnati, Ohio]) 1875-1880, 1880-03-31
PlTH OF THE PRESS.

RI vi l. l1lH6s
Chicago Tribune (Rep): The daisies
are growing over Palmer's boom. 1t
was about two spans and half long at
the time of its demise.
Burlington Hawkeye (Rep): The
Iowa Republican Convention was called
in April because the Blaine managers do
not know what the next month May
bring forth.
Indianapolis News: If old Christiancy
and his young wife will please have this
quarrel out in private, as they have had
the previous ones, the public will be their
most obedient servant.
Norristown Herald (Rep.): There is
one thing to be said for Mr.. James G.
Blaine. He is attending to his duties as
Senator instead of electioneering around
as Presidential candidate.
Detroit News Qnd.): Funny but true!
The south is forcing Grant on the north
which doesn't want him, and the north
is forcing Tilden on the south, which
would rather not have him.
Boston Post: A Cincinnati man would
rather hear story about a hog than
about sweet girl of sixteen, with
wealth of golden hair, blue eyes, and feet
that could get into No, 1shoes
Peoria Journal: The reason of the in
nate cussedness of the man Williamson,
who wrote all the letters and caused so
much trouble to Rev. DIR. Dix, of New
York, is explained. He used to live in
Chicago. ...
Washington Post (Dem): Our Ma
tional debt is not really blessing, but it
is not the part of wisdom to strain too
hard in our haste to pay it off. The talk
about wiping out all the bonds in fifteen
years is nonsense.
Chicago Times Ind.): Acklen will be
censured, but not expelled. 1t would be
difficult to conceive of an ofense which
the congressional Bourbons would con-
slider sufficiently heinous to warrant the
unseating of a Democrat.
Alta California (Rep.): We have not
Navy enough to contend with equal
chances of success with even one of the
huge iron-bound ships Of any European
naval power. And yet We talk of de-
Tending the Monroe Doctrine.
Nashville Banner (Dem.): \, General
Hancock has no record. He may be
Democrat, is no doubt, but then we
only have the word of his friends; he
has no policy, his sentiments on the
great questions of the day must be taken
on trust.
Charleston Is. C.) News {Dem.): We
have no liking for Senator Kellogg, but
we are satisfied that the arrangement
under which Senators Kellogg and But
Ter were admitted was regarded as
fnalty at the time, and ought not,
therefore, to be disturbed or reopened,
Chicago Inter-Ocean: The Cincinnati
papers mention the title Of new play,
"The Crows Of Porkopolis," just being
introduced IN that city. 1t may be
good time for the crows now, but crow
will be regular diet of the Commercial
and Gazette after the June Convention,
and the genuine article, or even good i'm
itations, should, for safety, roost high.
indianapolis Sentinel (Dem.): Hugh
J. Jewett was in Congress once for few
months, and ran once for Governor of
Ohio, and was defeated. Such is his DO
lteal record as public man. He is
now at the head Of great corporation
owned by the money kings of England.
We do not suppose there are three Demo-
Gratis in Indiana or in any other State,
outside of New York, in favor of the
Jewett boom.
Louisville Courier-Journal (Dem. y:
The Philadelphia Press says that "the
Democrats are paving the way to steal
the Presidency" Now. if the Demo-
Gratis are really doing any of that kind
of paving 1--WE are not aware that any
proof has been offered }, they are only in
dulging in freak of unconscious imita-
ton of very wicked Republican "pav-
ing" in 1876, which, unfortunately for
the country, was successful.
Albany Journal (Rep,J: 1t is very
doubtful whether the Democracy will be
able to shake off Mr.. Tilden. He has
wonderful tenacity and great deal more
power than his enemies admit. If he is
hit hard in Philadelphia, Pittsburg sends
him plaster If Kelly threatens to de-
