THE Chicago Inter'Ocean Rep catch
"a the idea. In an editorial on the stu
alton, it very calmly and truthfully says;
at will be Just as vel, however, for
Ohio Republicans to understand at the
outset, that there is any amount OF hard
work ahead-in fact, that there will be
beautiful fighting all along the line"
Ohio Republican newspapers have, done
much TO add to the bad blood and rest
lessness and doubt of the party. II they
have anv desire to walk over the track
as victors the coming fall, there IS no
mistake they should cease to encourage
tie present fight in New York. The
slaughter of the Stalwarts in New York
not only means the defeat of the party in
the Empire state, but it is feared it also
means the defeat of every Republican
candidate in Ohio by twenty thousand
votes. The Administration, if it does
not desire to be party to this, can cas-
ilv say 30. 1t can call { # its new Collec'
tor OF the Port of New York, with his
one thousand Offices in his hand, and
tell him his presence in Albany, under
the circumstances, is of great detriment
to the party evervUhere. 1t can save
the party in New York from the hands
of monopolists, who will use it only
for its ruin. Gov. Foster and Secretary
Sherman have the ears of the President,
and instead of boasting that they have
no primates and no Bosses" they would
do well to boss things just enough h to
steer the vessel clear of the rocks about
which the po itiCal waters lash and foam
only just ahead ofthe bow"
This appears to cover the ground.
