Democratic Thugs To Be Sent to Ohio
The Morton Club Meeting.

| 1t is not merely matter of rumor or conject-
ure but plain matter of fact that the Demo
Gratis are going to send a large gang of shoulder
hitters and ward-workers to Cincinnati to aid
the Democracy in their effort to carry Ohio on
Tuesday. A number of them have already gone
and at least twenty-five more are to be sent on
| Sunday morning. The Republicans learned of
the details of the scheme yesterday and will
thwart it if possible. The authorities in Gin
cinnati have been notified by telegraph to be CD
the lookout for them and if they attempt any
| illegal moves they will meet was a warm recep-
ton. The names of forty are in the possession
| OF the Republican State central committee.
