"The coRcluSioR appears to be
general that the next President Ol
the UHited States INNS: graduate
from some GubernatOrial chair
TILDEE'is to be elected Governor of
New York; his neighbor, Gen.RAN-
COCK, Governor OF Pennsylvania
JOHN PALMER is to be groomed as a
future Gubernatorial candidate iu
Illinois, and here in Ohio to ensure
his election to the GOvernorship,
ALLEN Il. THURMoNis is asked TO make
q struggle for the position of Secre
tary OF State. The Republicans
have caught the infection, and in
Minnesota are willing that none
but Senator WIEDoM shall oe talk
ed of for Governor, and even way
down in Maine Governor BLAINE
is pronounced trippingly on the
tongue. ThiSis an order of things
upon which President ARTHUR does
not look approvingly.
The allegation that Mr.. TILDEE
is to be elected Gov ernOr of New
Yerk is nonsense, and we presume
that the idea that Gen. HANeoCK is
to be run for Governor Of Pennsyl.
vsnia, 10 equally mistaken. So
doubtless, is the expectation that
Mr. BLAINE Will become Governor
of Name.
But there is no doubt that it is
regarded by politicians as a great
thing for a candidate to be elected
Governor Of the State in which he
lives Just before the election for
President. II not only shows that
he hastthe support Of a majority Q
the people in the State, but it puts
into bis hands a good deal Of official
Influence and Of patronage which
may be employed to secure for him
the delegates Of the State to thu

candidate for President is to b
selected. New York Sun.
