concerning gubernatorial candidates
1t will be no scrub race two years
from now. None but the best men in

the latter shows re9entant heart and

Gath quotes an Ohio man in New

Gath quotes an Ohio man in New
York as follows;
THE next campaign for governor in
Ohio will be the hardest fought since
the war. The temperance people hold
the balance oC power vet. Mr.. Rice, of
the Fremont district, is now spoken of.
l would not be surprised if the republi-
cans nominated eX-President Hayes.
He is more cheerful and natural guam
tity than when he was president, not be-
ing under the shadow OF that disputed
election. His administration was strong
with the Germans on his own account,
and with the temperance element on his
wlfe's. He has been three times elected,
and beat Thurman. Allen and Pendleton.
He can beat Hoadly. His hardest OPP
ponent TO beat would be Judge Geddes,
OF Mansfield. If Geddes is nominated
Hayes will have to be put up. think
he would accept. 1t would be an
answer to his enemies, and being the
first spectacle think, of an ex- Presi
dent running for governor. We need a
