bfauy is q very cool-headed person. al
through this trial, Notwithstanding the
large amounts he has hadto pay for coun-
sci, witnesses, etc., he has been hanging to
his business, trying to maze up by gains
whatever he might lose. Dorsey has had
to borrow money on his ranch and give
his individual attention TO the case, but
Brady has probably put his property out
of reach already, if the government under
takes to bring civil suit against him."
During the midst OF the trial.
said the same friend, BRADY
and Dorsey took a steamboat at Washing
ton and invited their supporters and such
other persons as they desired to keep in
favor with, to go down the Potomac river
for days joy. Consequently they have
plenty OF supporters, Notwithstanding pub-
lie opinion goes the other way.
BEN HARRISON.
Ny friend, being from Indiana, said:
'Ben Harrison ought to be in a good posi-
tirn to be the next Republican candidate
for president. There is really 10 other
Western man in the Republican party as
well endowed for the presidency. In
the first place he is Of a highly honorable
family and the descendant of a president
of the United States, and of a signer of
the Declaration of Independence.
His English ancestor was Gen. Harrison,
who signed the death warrant OF Charles
T."
Gan Ben. Harrison carry Indiana? -
said I.
"He is more likely to carry it, replied
my friend, ethan any Republican that
could be named. Not having been q bit
ter Or coarse opponent, there is much re-
spect left for him among gentlemen and
good citizens in the Democratic party,
many of whom would not throw straw in
his way if he had chance for such great
honor as the presidency. He is the supe-
rior OF the western men the Republicans
are talking about for president
John Logan is not the inherent gentle
man that Harrison is. Mr.. Window has
not his fine sense of honor
"Do you discover said to the gentle
man, "any particular indignation at this
New York despotism with the party?"
INC; not yet; because it seems to me
there is remarkable apathy throughout
the Republican party in the West. It is
not only an apathy of the people but the
leaders. That is why the temperance is
sue gets a chance. Hayes came to the
presidency with a good deal of respect,
and he retained it everywhere except
among the lower and moro physical ele-
ments OF Republican politicians,-th fell
lows who want to steal when in Office and
expect to be allowed to steal. They may
call themselves regulars, stalwarts, thick
and-thin men, or whatever they choose, but
what they mean is that there ought to be
FELLOWSHIP AMONG THIEVES.
Yet there have been just enough desert
ers from the respectable side of politics in
the Republican party of the West to give
fictitious strength to those eastern stalwarts
who fought Hayes Throughout his term and
then made war On Garfield. In every state
IN the West there is some little, low. de-
BASED ring which declares in the insolence
OF the New York stalwarts. The conse-
quences is that there are no longer bold
popular basides among the western Re-
publicans. eIn Illinois, continued my
friend, 1--WE find Logan opposed by man
like Charley Farwell, WHO'S smart square
headed fellow, but good deal of ring
man in all his methods. The governor of
the state, who is strongly mentioned for
senator, and Mr. Raum are both machine
men by kind living in the atmespere of
politics ioyously. In short, Illinois would
seem specifically to have
LESS ELEVATED TONE
in politics than either Ohio, Indiana, or
Iowa its parallel states. There
has never been that social antipathy to
political crookedness and coarseness in
Illinois that have observed in either of
the other states. Therefore do not be-
lieve,' said my friend, ''that Illinois will
present any Republican candidate for
president next time. Washburn had some
elements of strength, but he played fast
and loose with the Grant crowd
''What is the conclusion you are trying
to reach?'' I said to this gentleman.
1T is this: That Illinois not having any
candidate of it's own for president, unless
Logan thinks he is, rather leans on New
York to which its politicians are acces-
SORES, but do not think the same is the
case in Indiana said my friend. SIN
diana has been good deal disciplined by
these star route trials. The politicians
whom Morton raised up and who have run
the state for some time, have not the au-
dacity of their founder, and perhaps the
nearest approach to him in nerve is this
same Tom Brady, who was one Of his boys
brought up by hand. Tyner had to leave
the postofice department under dis
agreeable circumstances. Dick Thomp-
son, who was rather an anti
Morton leader for a while, has thrown him
self away on the De Lesseps' canal bust
ness. Ben. Harrison has got the field there
unless the little ring around indianapolis
means to go back on him because he is too
respectable for them
''Ohio will probably be in position two
years hence, said my friend, to support an
Indiana man for president, because there
is nobody in Ohio that is visible, with
