COlOnizing Negroes for
t'ctOber Election.
ENoIJIRER SPECIAL.

ENQUIRER SPECIAL.
Columbus, Sept. 2.-There are
man; callers at the Democratic
State Headquarters this week.
People are coming in from all
pats of the State TO attend the
State Fair, and taking occasion
to tell of the prospects in their
several localities. For some time
letters have been received from
we'll known Democrats in Ken
lucky 10 the effect that negroes
were being collected in that State
for colonies on the other side OF
the OF 10 River. These letters
SET forth that il is an open secret
that colored men in largo mum
bers are being induced 10 ieav.
that section almost daily 10 go
over into Ohio for the paipose OF
voting the Republican ticket in
October. This is an old trick of
the Republicans. They have
PLAYED it many times. These
men are employed on contracts
Some go into the country and cut
corn, chop wood and do other
work, but most of them stop in
colored settlements and do moth
ing. The Kentucky Register,
says:
I'VE are reliably informed that
within the past few weeks a con-
siderable number of coloi ed ,nen
have left Richmond for { hio.-
No later than Tuesday morning
six of them bought tickets for
Springfield. Ohio, and boarded
the early train for that place
Others have gone before and oth-
ers will follow, The colored ex-
Odus is not confined TO Richmond
alone, by any means. 1t is gen
eral throughout this State and
Virginia. The cause of this emf
grafton is too palpable to need
explanation. Republican strik
ers are abroad i'm Kentucky and
Virginia. and, at their instigation
carloads of colored men are be.
ing shipped into Ohio and Indi
ana for the purpose of carrying
those States for Blaine and Lo-
gan in November. 1t takes lots
of money to do this, but what
care the Republican leaders for
expenses SO long as the Goveln
ment officials, clerks and other
employees foot the bills?''
Hooking county will have more
than its full quoto of these vot-
ing negroes quartered on us, and
every rascal will vote for West
and the entire Republican ticket.

Cadet Gould.

The Official Bulletins from the
Annapolis Naval Academy an
nounce that out of a class of 81,
40 passed an acceptable exami-
nation, and of the number pass
ing, Cadet Will Gould, of Logan,
won the highest honors of the
class, and was given the highest
honors possible of attainment.
This is gratifying to us. Will
Gould is our own Hooking cOun-
ty boy. He enters into COM
petitive examination with the
high born sons and the chosen
favorites Of the Nation. He goes
equipped to the contest with in
heriled honesty and purity, and
requirements taught by our Lo-
gan Schools. He wins the hon
ors o; his class, and in doing so
wins honor to his teachers,
Messrs. McCray and Rathmell,
and his latest instructor, Joe
Stedem, and gralifies his many
school mates, who unite with his
friends in congratulations, and the
hope that he will prove a noble
"son of the sea-" and worthy
child of the Republic.'
John T. Norris, the calliope de-
iective of the Hooking Valley
Railroad, has taken possession of
Hooking county. He has distin-
guished himself in arrestlng only
innocent persons. He has invol
we'd the county in an expense of
about two thousand dollars, and
disgusted everybody, and has not
done thing in the interests of the
Public Service. He las not yet
taken control of no SENTINEL.
This business just now is thing
to let alone. 1t is costing more
than it is making.
The o'her institutions of the
couu y THAT are paying concerns,
should look we'll to their affairs or
his Giasiicutus will grab them
1t strikes us that it is about
Tine he is called of.
This community can stand
reasonable amount of insult and in
dignity, but the limit ought to be
fixed, and it ought TO be liked soon
One of the most sociable and en-
ioyable events of the season was
given at the residence of Mr.. and
Mrs. Rufus Karsner on last Tues
day evening, where to the excel
lent strains of Webster's band
twenty couples joined in the light
until two o'c'ock in the |
morning. The occasion was in
honor of Mis-. Karsner's guests.
the Misses Moilie Bobby and Maria
Palmer, of Logan. The evening
vas spent in a delightful manner.
Ill pronouncIng the affair the most
.njoyabie that hrs ever been held
II this community. Miss Palmer

pleurality of only fifteen thou-

bets taken OH twenty and TWEEN

whilst the Democrats quietly
conceded the State. always a re-

a lack OF ten thousand less than
anticipated, is in effect, a Demo

Terrible Trials Of Ou1
War Correspondents.
Fearful EDcG Hnfer with a
Snake.
INSPIRATION AND EXPLANATION OF
BLOOD CUkpLING DISPATCHES.

The great newspapers have
an army of war correspondents
in the Hooking valley. These
| valient knights of the pencil are
ambitious TO earn their dollar a
day, and free beer from Brooks.
One day last week wagon
load of them started from the
grocery at Nelsonville iii search
of items. On the road to Snake
Hollow they discussed and cuss
ed the situation and the liquor
in able staff style.
Approaching this tempestuous
territory, they were halted by
seeing garter snake forty feet
long stretched across the road
| and fcrbidding farther advance
The war correspondents, eight OF
them, each drew his revolver and
his flask and fired upon the Oh
structing constr;cter.
The firing scared an escaped
Italian who was hiding in the
road side bushes, picking the lice
off his garments, and he rushing
down the road to camp scared
the snake out of the road, and So
alarmed the guards that a gene
al firing all along the lines fol-
lowed.
The next morning tho Colum-
bus papers had the startling in
telligence that four thousand
desperate miners attacked the
Pinkertons, and that but fo: the
heroic courage of the guards who
stood their ground manfully, all
might have been lost, and the
Monday Creek would have over
flowed its banks with blood.
The snake escaped. The cor
| respondents are still down there

true. They read also that they had ex-
pressed a belief that the free and liberal
sentiments of the deceased had advanced
the material and social interests of his
country. This was true, but between the
two truths there was this difference, one
was a truth which the house could exhort,
the other was a truth it could not exhort.
The house could say it regretted the death
of Lasker and send a message any where.
1t could believe and know his political
sentiments were for the German empire,
but it had no right to send that opinion to
a friendly power which entertained a diff
ferent opinion and thought the political
sentiments of Lasker had not materially
advanced but had materially retarded the
progress of the government. Here was
a dilemma and where was a refuge. There
seemed to be none. The house could re-
sent the fact that its friendly sentiments
had been rejected, but it could not resent
the fact of its political sentiments having
been rejected because it had no business to
put them IN the same paper.
The resolutions were adopted without
division, though an unsuccessful attempt
was made to have the yeas and nays or
dered.
Before passage the resolutions were dis
cussed at some length, Phelps explaining
on behalf of the committee that the only
two troublesome points in the matter had
been solved. The first by the apology
and explanation of Bismarck in reich
stag and the second by the tact of the
state department, which adroitly avoided
receiving back the resolutions when re-
turned.
Mr.. Bland, of the committee on coin
age, weights and measures, a bill limit
ing the coinage of the double eagle and
to discontinue certain United States coins.
Ellis, of the committee on appropria-
tons, reported on the Indian appropria-
ton bill in committee of the whole.
Then the long expected struggle over
the whiskey bill began.
Blackburn, calling Springer to the chair,
moved to go into committee of the whole
on the revenue bills.
Dowd raised a question as to the CON
sideration and Randall demanded the
yeas and nays. The motion was agreed
to- yeas 100, nays l2l, and the house
went into committee of the whole, DORIS
heimer in the chair. The first bill was
the bonded extension bill.
A long and somewhat heated discussion
ensued which was kept up till the hour of
adjournment.

The Blaine Boom,

PHILADELPHIA, March l9.-At the
primary elections of the republican party
last night for delegates to the state con
vention brought out a larger vote than
usual. A glance over the field leaves the
impression that the element of the party
represented by ex-Secretary Quay and the
popularity supposed to be in the interest
of the national administration has been
defeated and the element of which men
Leeds, chairman of the city committee, is
headed and said to be favorable to Blaine
has been successful in a majority of the
representative districts. The result of the
convention work this morning confirms
this idea.

PROVIDENCE, March 19.-The demo-
cratic state convention this morning was
largely attended. John NJ. Breenan nomi-
mated George H. Corless for governor.
GeorgeJ. West said he understood Corless
could have been the republican nominee
for the last twenty years. He nominated
Amasa S~prague, of Warwick, saying it
was neither right or consistent for the
democratic party to nominate a republi-
can. This nomination was seconded.
Thomas w. Segar, of Westerly, was also
nominated. An informal ballot was taken
with the following result: Whole number
of votes cast, 81; Corless, As; Sprague,
2S; Segar, %; scattering, 3. The formal
ballot resulted: Whole number of votes
cast, 90; Corless, A; Sprague, 20; Segar,
%. A number of dilatory motions were
made and finally a motion to declare Cor
less the nominee was adopted by a vote of
81 to IS. Mr.. Corless was waited on by a
committee to inform him of his nomina-
ton but he declined the honor.
The following nominations were then
made: Thomas W. Segar, for governor;
Amasa Sprague, lieutenant governor;
Jonathan NJ. Wheeler, secretary of state;
Charles +. German, attorney general, and
George p. Leonard for general treasurer.
Delegates to national democratic conven-
ton were chosen.
