makers are having lots OF fun setting
up presidential building blocks for one
another TO knock down. When Ar
thur was here he hardly had time to
catch his breath, but the newspaper
correspondents tried to make readable
letters by writing sensational political
news. The New York Times man har-
messed, in his imagination, Arthur and
Logan for tho Republican race. Ii is
considered rs good joke, by his
friends, that Logan would consent To
take anything less than first place on
the ticket, aud his enemies could wish
him no worse fate than to get the nom.
ination for the mead or tail either. for
that matter, OF the next Republican
ticket.

had visit ltst sunday, Is enough to
yet the 20 sips talking about the told
ticket. IL j. innocent amusement for
them. They must talk about some
tuing.
