counties in Ohio in which the majority

less liquor selling In these counties

81 think the Germans of Ohio who
have come over to our party during the
past two or three years have come TO
stay, but do not take any stock in the
asse rtions that have been made to the
effect that Blaine will encounter strong
German opposition in Ohio, because
Maine is prohibition State. The Ger.

will oppose Blaine simply because the
State he comes from has seen fit to
