From Our Regular Correspondent.
WASHINGTON LETTER.
Washington, d. c., Sept. 27, 'S4.

w usHllSIOu, w. ~, cCpl' 80, or
The attention of politicians here
abouts is largely turned towards Ohio
Just now, and IT, greatest interest CEN
tres in the campaign in that State. In
lie previous presidential campaign with
i'll my recollection has this been the
case. Heretofore Ohio has been con-
ceded in advance to tho Republicans,
and Indiana, more doubtful state in
the past, has been the focus of special
interest at this stage Of the contests.
But now there is little question about
Indiana, and the Republicans are
scared nearly TO death about one of
their own states. Pension Commits
sioncr Dudley has left lis office and
zone to Ohio to take charge of the cor
rupton fund and direct the movements
to buy the state. Having been first
lieutenant under Dorsey in Indiana in
1880, he is considered well qualified
for such a mission. Mr.. Dudley re-
signed lis office here because it was
the wish of the Secretary Of the lnteri-
or that lie should do so. They have
not been in accord for some time. and
now Dudley goes to Ohio to work for
Blaine, under promise from the latter
that he shall have Tellers place if he
succeeds in buying the necessary num-
Der of votes to carry that state.
had a talk recently with gentle
man who knows the inside plans of the
Blaine managers and learned from him
tho plan upon which Dudley is to oper-
ate. The seven counties of Cuyahoga,
Sandusky, Lucas, Erie, Hamilton,
Montgomery and Butler, which gave
Mr.. Hoadley 12,472 majority, have
been selected a special battle ground.
In these seven counties there are 397
voting precincts, with an average Of
q fraction over 400 votes each. They
also include every large city except
Columbus and Springfield. In each
of these precincts reliable worker is
to be placed, and he is to be supplied
with the munitions of war, and each
of these 397 workers is expected to
make an average Of forty "conver-
sions." The arguments used to secure
these conversions, are bribery and CHI
canery-the only weapons Of the party
in latter years. 1t is possible that by
these means the Blaine managers may
succeed in holding the state. If they
don't the jig is up with them. If they
do they will simply hold what has
never been counted in the Democratic
column, and will still be a mighty long
ways from final success. The fact that
there is such "A scare about Ohio,
shows the condition and desperation of
the Blaine cause. As Col, Dudley's |
resignation does not take effect until
Nov, 10th, he is doing all his dirty
work while an officer Of the Govern
ment, and as the head Of the Pension |
Bureau he has taken with him as
aides large number of special agents,
who are on the rolls Of that office.
Dudley would make a nice Secretary
Of the Interior-just as James G.
Blaine would make Il sweet-scented
President of the United States.

HUMAN Blood On the purity and vital
iry of the blood depend the vigor and health
OF the whole system. Disease of various
kinds is often only the sign that nature is
trying to remove the disturbing cause A
remedy that gives life and vgor to the
blood, eradicates scrofula and other impure
ties from it, as Hoods Sarsaparilla I'M
doubtcdly does, must be the means of pre-
venting many diseases that would occur
without its use. Sold by dealers.
When symptoms Of malaria appear in
any form, take Ayers Ague Cure at once,
to prevent the development of the disease,
and continue until health is restored, as
1t surely will be by the use of this remedy.
A cure is warranted in every instance.

that an Administration controlled by
Blaine would take steps TO abrogate 1t,
is, in consequence, opposed to the

clearly in opposition to the Monroe
Doctrine:

States aud Great Britain hereby de-

other will ever obtain or maintain for
itself any exclusive control over the

will ever erect or maintain any fortifi-

the vicinity thereof, or occupy, or
fortify, or colonize, or assume or exer-
else any dominion over Nicaragua,
Costa Rica, the Mosquito Coast, OF
any part of Central America; nor will
either make use of any protection
which either affords or may afford,
or any alliance which either has or
may have to do with any state or PEG.

maintaining any such Notifications, or
of occupying, fortifying or colonizing

or of assuming or exercising dominion
over the same; nor will the United
States or Great Britain take advantage
of any intimacy, or use any alliance,

the one, or any rights or advantages

through the said canal which shall not
be offered on the same terms to the
citizens or subjects of the other.
