have not thought tina. the opp POSITION ele-
IneDts to the Republican party will control
lie Legislature. There are twenty-five
Senator's to be elected, and 100 mem Der,
oIe-balf of the Senats holding over. OF the
bali holding over there is but one Democrat
out OF twenty-five, so that it would req lire
sn unprecedented gain by the Democrats to
get control OF the legislature
IF there large Democratic gains occur,
Will there De any permanent significance 70

Il; would not necessarily indicate that the
State could be carried next year. Bat there
Is 60 question bat that the Democrats Will
gain permanently in Iowa upon the question
OF the tariff. The few manufacturing estab-

manufacture OF agricultural implement, al
in6u try which is injuriously affected rather
than benefited by the tariff"
With references to the probable action Of
the next Republican Convention to nom
ira.e candidate for the Presidency, the
Stpstor aaid:
II think President Arthur will 20 into the
Republican Convention the strongest man. 1
have not thought be could be nominated.
There will be a very strong disinclination 10
make him q candidate for the successorship

as there any factioDsl opposition to lin ?'
II DO not know that there is but many
men earnestly attached to the RsDUblicsn
party in the past would give him but luke
warm support, and many would not support
him 81 all"
Who, in your opinion, has the best
! chance for the nomination.
IF ! am 10 speculate upon Republican
chances | would say that General Logan, in
the tnd, would be the strongest candidate.
He will perhaps stand as fair n chance OF ne
nomination as any anne now knoTn to the
public. But ii is difficult 10 speculate about
Presidential candidates nine months in adj
vance OF the Convention
"Whet will be the chief issues next year."
Il think the tariff questi u will be, p.r-
h6ps, among the most prOmn snt question:
in tie canvass. connecting, of course, with
The general question Of revenue reform.

Government over the EXPENSES of the Re-

have mere or less IL liuence npon the canvass
and will enter quite considerably into the
political discussion"
With such issues, and good candidates on
both tides, what are the cDances?'
II thing the chances n Nv favor the Demo
cratic party Bat these fall elections may

as 1t true that you will go TO Onio about
the st OF October 10 assist in the Hoadly

Yes; but am not so certain as to the ex-
oct time. j shall be governed somewhat in
that regard b. my business In the Court
here, though hope TO reach Ohio at least
one week before the election, which takes
place on the och OF October"
DO you think the factional fight now in
progress in Hamilton County and the fact
that TWO tickets are in the field will lessen
Hosdly's chances for elsctionT
LAS TO that do not look upon any party
fight with favor. but this NAV be the means
of helping rather than irjuriDg Hoadty.
There will no doubt be an earnest effort on
the part OF the Hamilton County tickets to
poll every vote, and this fact will doubtless
help the State ticket. As / understand il
