SISUBESyILLE, May l9.-There are three
gentlemen in this city at present who
Nould be willing TO occupy places on the
Republican State ticket in the coming con-
test, two Of whom are very anxious to get
there" They are Hon. r. G.. Richards
Lieutenant Governor Of OHIO, who would
accept the candidrcy for the Goyernorship,
if rendered hin-althOugh he says he is
not a candidate; Judge Robert Martin
Richards law partner who yearns for the
Attorney.Generalship, and Mr.. John Z.
Brown, who announces himself as a full.
Aedged candidate for Treasurer of Safe;
but The probabilities are that none Of these
political aspirants will have the long
pole that knocks the persimmons."
Tine Republican party as rule,
generally ignores eastern Ohio when
II comes to making up a State ticket, al
though Richards, by the aid OF Charley
Foster, was successful in carrying off the
Lieutenant GovernOrship at the Cleveland
convention two years ago. But when two
candidates from the same town want to be
Oh the same ticket the chances are that
epdsayors TO secure the prize. Browns
friends say be is going in TO win the Treas
urerShip il work sill GO it, and he has the
reputation of being pretty shreud poll
ticisp. However. the trouble with Brown
is, he is q perpetual office seeker, and his
name will not create that spontaneous en-
thusiasm that he hopes for. He
has served in the capacity of
counts treasurer six years. and made
an excellent officer, and would no doubt
I'LL the state Treasurers office with marked
ability. At the late Republican primaries
for municipal offices in this city, he was
candidate for Mayor, but was showed IN
der coming out of the battle third best.
He wss gallant soldier, having LOST leg
in the late unpleasantness, and will no
doubt run we'll with the soldiers.
Martin, who wants to be Attorney Gen.
eTal, commenced his career here as a school
Il acher, but some years SGD read law and
was elected Probate Judge OF this county,
in which capacity he served eight years.
Although not brilliant lawyer by
any means, he made an average officer,
and at the close Of his official career
resumed the practice of law, and
is now a partner OIL Lieutenant Governor
Richards. IL is a strange proceeding to
some people that Martin would come out
for State Office just at this time when
Richards would like To step from the sec
Ond to the first Office in the State. 4 Re-
publican politician gave it as his opinion
to-day that probably il WAS to push Brown
off the track for a State nomination. An
equally shrewsd politician also made the
remark that Browns candidacy was to hurt
Richards chances more than 10 elevate his
osn. But the Democratic heart says: Don't
fight, boys; for you are successful in pro-
,t,r ay ta,, he lorx
passed and the Germans are mad. And
you know what that means.
A"Masher" Mashed.
A funny incident occurred on Market
street Thursday evening, which was done
so quietly that, although the street was
crowded, not more than dozen people saw
that one Of our Washers" was standing in
front of Forney's jewelry store with
brother mash, cycling ladies and making
Re marks as they passed. Finally a large,
rather fine looking woman came along, and
the "maSher," Just rs she passed, remarked
"Aw, isn't she daisy?" He hadn't more
than uttered the words when he received
a stunning blow in the right optic. followed
by another on the left pepper, from the
list Of the Infatuated woman. the last blow
knocking him clear off his feet. Then she
quietly wslEed on up the street, while our
