CINCINNATI D C. o., wo'k that can
scarcely be ca.ed q erary production has
ma 10 Ito appearance On the streets and at
tie news stands In this city. that has Great.
ed considerable comment and not little
excitement.
The title Of the book Is "When the
Democrats Rule, aud the contents are a
forecast OF the great political events Of 1884
and 1880. The faces Of Governor .eect
Hoadly and Sunset Cox appearing on the
cover, leads the curious observer 10 an cx-
animation of the contents, which
prove of quite an exciting and
exceedingly interesting character.
The mysterious author who signs himself
"Call" predicts the nomination Of Arthur
and Butterworth by the Republicans Ma
tional convention and OF HOsdly and Cox
by the Democrats, the proceedings Of each
convention being given. The reader al
most unawares, 10 led into the heat and
excitement OF the presidential campaign Of
1884, the account of which introduces
Blaine, Grant and Conkling as taking the
stump for Arthur, and Ben Butler, Thur.
man and others for Hosdly.
The struggle In New York and Ohio is
portrayed and the colored voters Of the
North are made TO Join the Democracy,
owing 70 Hosdly's position on Civil rights.
The unknown prophet then carries
Ohio, New York and Indisns and
solid South for Hoadly and
Cox electing them by an overwhelming
majority. On March 4, 1885, the author
dawes 20, 900 Republican office holders from
Washington City, leads an army Of 20, oOo
Democrats to fill the vacated positions,
names Hoadly's cabinet 10 which Ben But
Ter appears as Attorney General and con-
cludes by predicting a war between the
United States and England on the Panama
canal question. There 10 much curiosity to
know who the author Of this book is, and II
is ated that he Is a well.known member OF
the Cincinnati press.
