what is there left to expect for the other
side? But all this will not elect Blaine. The
Republicans have carried Ohio by less than
they did four years ago, in spite OF all the
efforts put forth this year. You can depend
upon it that the Ohio election doesn't sig
Nifty what the presidential vote viii be.'
Mr.. Baker did not think that the large
German vote cast in Ohio for the Repub-
licans would exert any influence on the
voters of that nationality in other states in
November.
~ do not look upon this victory as an i'm
portant one for Blaine's defeat,' said Mr.
Franklin MacVeagh. 1t was claimed at the
time of his nomination that he was a strong
man for Ohio, and that he could carry it by
! sweeping majority without any effort. We
now see that if be has secured majority of
1870 he has done it at the expense of a
tremendous effort. In order to carry Ohio
at the state election, Blaine's dignity has to
be sacrificed to the necessities of the crisis
The result is simply equal to that
OF 1880. Ohio simply holds in line and
no more. II must not be forgotten that. as
far as the Independents are concerned, yes
terday's election in Ohio was of little mo-
ment.
The Independents cannot find expression
in local election. 1t is only in respect to
the presidential election that the faction of
Independents and Stalwarts will have its full
force. Now, in regard to the elation of Re
publicans over small success in Ohio.
There is food for reflection when it is remem-
bered that Ohio possesses the best Republican
life and is least cursed with bossism of al
most any state in the Union. Why should
they be so elated 10 observe that their own
best ranks hold firm! The singular thing is
that the Republicans claim as a victory every
thing which does not show that its own peo-
pie unanimously voted against it. As with
the Union League club of New York the Re-
publicans consider it great victory that the
majority Of its members are
for Blaine. The Republicans point
with exultation to the large
German vote which has fallen to its share in
Ohio. Why, Germans are nOtoriously Re-
publicans, and, like the members of the
Union league club, they should bave been
counted TO uphold Blaine. As TO Cleveland's
chances next November, don't feel at all
alarmed. The turn Ohio has taken will
bring out most powerful Independent action,
and the Stalwarts will 60 to work in earnest.
Of course, if Ohio had gone Democratic,
under the circumstances, or the Republican
majority had been only thousand or so, no
power on earth could have saved Blaine from
defeat.n

tally in the result of the congressional fight.
Hurd claims a majority of 200, while the Re-
publicaus claim Romeis election by 200 to
500. Returns come in slowly and it may
take the official count to settle
the question. Nothing has been
heard from the back townships in
Ottawa county. The result in Locust county
seems 10 render certain the election of the
entire Republican ticket by a majority of
from 500 TO 500, except clerk Of court, who
has but about 300. Wilson'S election as
common pleas judge is conceded by the
Democrats, but the other candidate is in
doubt, as Lennon, the Democratic candi-
date is extremely popular and may pull
through. The circuit iudgeships are all Re-
publican. In Williams county the entire
state and county ticket are reported Demo-
cratic, with the exception of two county Off
ces. Newman's majority is placed at 81, q
Democratic gain OF three over Hoadly Henry

Loga,a;s Unpleasant Witnesses.
Chicago NeWs.I

distinguished editor, who was equally
distinguished as correspondent during the
war tells an interesting reminiscence OF
John A. Logan. At one time during the civ
il war this correspondent was, with Logan IS
command in Tennessee and while there Gen.
Logan came to him one day and said: II
wish you'd 60 up to Illinois with me and
make report of a speech have been invi-
ted to open the campaign within my con-
gressional district" The correspondent
went along. On the day the two were near
ing Logan's home Logan said; ''We are
going to put up with my father-in-law. Capt.
Cunningham. He doesn't like me, and you
may notice a GOODNESS between US, but 1
hope you won't mind it. When thev ar
rived at the Cunningham mansion they were
cordially welcomed by all except the old gen.
tleman. He paid no attention whatever to
his son-in-law, and it was very amusing to
the correspondent to watch the adroitness
with which the two men avoided each other
At the supper table old Capt. Cunnin CHAM
helped Logan bountifully to the edibles, but
not word passed his lips; he was as dumb
to Logan as if he had been wooden image.
Cunningham was violent Southern sympa-
thizer, and it groun the iron into his soul
to have a son-in-law who was q General in
the Union Army. The next day an exciting
scene occurred while Logan was making a
speech. A woman in the crowd cried out
at was you, Jonn Logan, who urged nv
son to go into the Southern army, where he
was shotr' Another woman screamed: SIT
was you who advised my husband to join
the Confederates'' And so woman after
woman boldly testified against the man who
was now advocating the cause of the Union.
How Logan ever got through with his speech
is marvel. There never was a scene like
it,aud never did a man attempt to be heard
against such embarrassing circumstances.

T,so anecdotes of Mccullough.

While Mr.. Mccullough steadily aimed the
confidence of Mr.. Forrest in his judgement
as to theatrical matters, as to his conception
and presentations, he at the same time
gained happy influence over his, at times,
hasty temper. He relied upon his younger
co-laoorer for word Of cool judgment at the
proper time. At one time Mr.. Forrest was
acting in New York. His leading lady was
popular actress and estima5le woman At
a particular part in the play in rehearsal this
lady missed a word. Mr. Forrest noticed
the fact and in pointed, sharp, manner
corrected it. The incident was noticed when
rehearsal ended and the lady departed. But
Mr.. Forrest fingered and asked Mr.. McCul-
Tough il he knew her residence. Then the
correction was referred 10 and commented
upon. Mr.. Forrest saw the hasty mistake he
had made; in company with Mr.. Mccullough
he called upon the lady, made the amende
in proper manner and then went to din
ner. This was useful influence possessed
by Mr.. Mccullough and grew out Of his con-
duct in the presence of Mr.. Forrest He
dared to do right at ali times and to all men
and his character grew up and hardened at
this point with Forrest and those associated
with him in private and professional life.

About as Expected.


CHICAGO, Oct. 15.-Erskine VI. Phelps.
president Of the Iroquois club, says Of yester-
days election: Il have not heard precisely
what the result in Ohio is, but if the Repub-
lican majority does not exceed 15, 600 there
is no reason for encouragement to the Dem
Ocrats. I would consider that no great vic
tory in Republican state, where the Re-
publican party concentrated all their force
for many weeks, and where they poured out
their money in vast amounts. They were
desperate and they made every effort in
their power to win The result will have no
particular influence on the Democratic
voters of Illinois, New York and Indiana.
Take it all in all, think we ought to be en-
eouraged, and work for victory in Novem-

NO. 29O.

Forrest which showed even the romantic
feelings of his nature were duplicated in this
history of Mr.. Mccullough. He has sister
to whom he was always tenderly attached.
When John, as she called him, went upon
the stage it was hard shock to her feelings.
These "stage people," as they are called in
the north OF Ireland, have uncanny reputa.
tions, and John and his sister drifted apart
for years. In the meantime his sister mar
ried and collected family around her in
small home in the country. But misfortune
came, the home was sold and his sister came
to the city. These facts came to the ears Of
John, the ''player man." He went to tho
country, sought out the old homestead, pur-
chased it, came back, visited his sister. took
her to the country and settled her at the old
place. 1t would be bold person who would
call actors ''uncanny'' in that house now.
This was putting scenes enacted upon the
stage into real life and showing how the real
man colors all his art. When a man is
mere actor, when he moves and breathes as
machine, beautiful but cold and pulseless,
no such effort can be produced. But the art
of Mr.. Mccullough and Mr.. Forrest came
from the aroused feelings and found its home
there.

Adding to the above the maiorities of 1888
in the five counties unheard from gives a
net Republican plurality of 10,s65. The five
counties will probably increase the majori-
ties Of 1888, so that the plurality will reach
about l., 900.
Republican congressman have been elected
in the first, second, eighth, ninth, tenth,
twelfth, fourteenth, eighteenth, nineteenth
and twentieth districts. Total, ten.
Democratic congressman have been elected
in the third, fourth, fifth, sixth seventh, thir-

district is still in doubt.

state, and the superhuman efforts put forth
by the Republicans, aided by their candi-
dates in the field, have produced
their legitimate results. While the result
in Ohio does not insure Republican success
in November in the national campaign, it is
going to make the contest a very close one
We in Indiana will feel the influence of it
perhaps more than in any other state, still I
feel very confident that we will be able to
hold our own state to the Democratic line.'
Mr.. Henderson, chairman of the state CEN
tral committee, is jubilant over a private
dispatch just received from Columbus, which
states that the Republican plurality would
not run over 5000, and that eleven Demo
cratic congressman were assured. He says:
''Ohio will have no outside effect, but will
give Ohio to Blaine; it won't discourage In
diana Democrats. We expected it TO go Re
publican. To be sure, it will create more or
less enthusiasm among the Republicans, but
they were sadly in need Of something to en-
thuse them.''
