inquired the of his hilarty he replied:
"Why. If my friends had been trlle more num-
erous at Chicago the obsequies Of tonight would
have been mine and not Cleveand's.' You have
great reason to be thankful Mr. Thurman.

light highly crcditabc 10 the Democrats He says
he could not convince anybody out of the state that
that If the Democrats had stood firm they would easily
have won-lCOlumbus Dispatch.
This opinion of Governor IIoadly would be of
much more value if he had not been conspIcuousy
mistaken in his judgment AZ to the State election
He was the man of all others who was absolute
y sure that the Democrats would carry the State,
and put the majority, if we are not mistaken,
higher than anybody else. 1t is not strange that
he - could not convince anybody out of the State
that his predictions were correct. People outside
of Ohio have found very little to believe his
statements on any political matter.

was honorably beaten by healthy majority be-
cause { he people Of his district do not believe in

honor than the candidates who were elected by dis
honest pretences.
