but ref used it, because he weuld not SIT
under the "Plumed Knight as prime

These are interesting complications
and revelations. The Gazette aft rms that
Stephen w. Dorsey carried "the brains
of the campaign of 1880 under his hat
and it is not believedthat Mr. Blaine can
reach the presidency with Dorsey's tact,
skill and efficient inf arrayed
against him.
From all which it does not seem to be
a anticipated that the star route prosecu-

verthrow of the accused. The further
publication Of the Dorsey Garfield cor
respondence may cause Blaine and his
foil overs to howl Mr.. Blain doubtless
has too many damaged and shaky bridges
to pass over, ever to reach the presi-
dency, or even a nomination for that
exalted Office. There is likely to be a
new deal all around, and the real name
of the next president has not yet been
suggested by either party.

The enterprising managers of the state fair
call for page of SPACE in the GLOBE this
morning to state few Of their attractions.
Am eng other things they mention fair play
in their races. They are entitled to
make point on this matter. The
very first race called resulted in
two drivers being ordered from their sulkies
because they did not drive to win. One OF
them was the owner OF the horse, which,
u nder a new driver, easily won the race, and,
in doing so, the tricky owner denounced the
driver. This was confession of his guilt,
and fully justifes the conduct OF the fair
management.
