TIE OUTLOOK in OHIO:
rAE REFORM pEMocRArs LNARAeE,


CiScINSATI, October 3-The Commercial
Gasete says: Atfairs political were much
mixed up yesterday, and many gentlemen
who had opinions to express and on which
they were willing TO "bank," !" frankly ac-
knowledged they were at sea Numerous
Democrats who had detected reaction In
their favor solemnly shook theirhesds and
admitted that the outlook was dark. Some
Republicans bad dismounted from their
high horses and claimed the election OF
their ticket by maiorities which were With
in reason, though their confidence in the
final result was not shaken. The Reform
ers are on their ear with vengeance on
account OF the snubbing they received at
the hands Of the Highland House Demo.
Gratis at the Gibson House esterdgy morn
ing. They cry for gore, and nothing short
OF the ecalp OF the dude bcsswill satisfy
them. One thing plainly evident was that
the friends Of Mr.. Pendleton were
elated about something while the
Mclean men were corTespon1jpgly
downcast. RumoE say that Mr.. Pendleton
has secured the support ola majority ofthe
Democratic candidates for the Legislature
throughout the State, so that he is assured
the caucus nomination for U. S. Senaturre-,
gardlees OF the pledges tue !. Hamilton
county nominees may have given. II Is
said that Mr.. PenGleton has promises frem
forty-six Democratic legislative candidates,
which, true, puts him in a position to
d-fy his traduceis, ss there are bot los
members ofthe Legislature. The Demo-
Gratis claim seyenty.three members on
joint ballot, and Mr.. Peudleton would,
therefore, have nine votes TO spare and yet
ent efforts OF the Reformers to receive rec.
ognitlon, and their point blank refusal to-
consider anything except the withdrawal
Of the Highland House ticket, notwith-
standing the efforts made by prominent
Democrats to bring about a compromise,
has badly scared the McLsanites aud com.
PEELED them TO admit there is q bare posi-
bility Of their defeat.
THE OUTLOOK IN TIE STATE.
The outlook over the State is very en-
couraging to the Republicans, and the
Democrats openly express fears that all
may not come out "korrect.n The Demo.
cratic candidate for sta.s Treasurer, Cap
tain Peter Brady, was on Change yester.
day, and anxiously inquired on all sides as
TO the probable result, He himself Is not
over-contident Of victory for the Demo-
cratic State ticket, and expresses grave
doubts as to the agitation concerning the
prohibition amendment. His remarks on
this subject were: II have talked with
many well informed QemocratF, and they
are unable to say whether the movement
will help or hurt the Democracy. 1t isa
new question, and we can hardly judge
concerning !"
The Spiritualistic bug.a boo trotted out by
Judge A. G. W. Carter was short-lived, but
none too short when the absurd material
out Of which 1t was manufactured Is con-
sidered. Comptroller E5heiby was asked
about the matter yesterday, and he said:
ut won't lose US ten votes in the county.
/ challenge Judge Carter to cite single
spiritualist in this city who Is preaching
the doctrine, who has been affected by the !.
Russell Bill. 1t has been applied only to
those who, under the name OF clairvoyants,a
mediums, and the like, have engaged in
disreputable and immoral practices. II
necessary l can name those parties. You
can say for me that Judge Carter Is Dem
ocratic enthusiast, and Is attempting to
make capital for the Democratic party"
The friends oil Thomas Sherlock yester-
day announced that he would donate the
salary attached to the Office OF County
Treasurer, III case be were elected, 10 the
different orphan asylums in the county.
Mr.. Sherlock could not be found, but Mr..
w. Glenn Taylor, acandidate for the State
Senate on the College Hall ticket, stated
that be had reason TO believe il TO be true.
