THE Cincinnati Commercial Gazette
remarks:
The Chicago Times has resurrected tie
old Blaine social scandal which was pub
lished in 1876 in the Frankfort Yoeman
and other Kentucky papers, and which
the Louisville Courier-Journal afterward
investigated, its editor declaring there
was not word of truth in it. Itcreated
no sensation then, and its revival BY the
Times now will not produce The intended
effect.
