The Plumb crowd somehow seem to have
failed with their gift of tongues and pelf in
quieting the Peru Herald man, and the Cos
siper is inclined to caution him that he is
likely to fall within the cstagory of "kickers'
if the following tone is persisted in;
The republican convention at Ottawa, on
Monday, was peculiar body. We are told
that at least one.third of the delegates were
opposed to the denomination of Col. (?)
Plumb for congress, and that many of the
delegates in the convention openly proclaim
ed their intention to scratch the gallant and
liberal Colonel's (?) name in November.
Many republicans absented themselves from
caucuses aud convention for the express pur.
pose of leaving themselves untrammeled in
the campaign. The democrats have an op'
portunity in this district now. Are they
likely to take advantage of it? or will they
allow the innocent and benevolent Col % tC
select and nominate his opponent?
The Plumb crowd despise kickers,' you
know; and the Herald man expect to b,
bombarded with some very hard names be

There is growing disposition among
manufacturers to cut loose from the great
cities, when practicable, a. sites for manu-.
featuring establishments, in order to escape
high taxes, and more particularly the dis
turbing influence Of city life upon the work,
ing men, 1t was noticeable fact that in the
great strikes of the spring, the movement was
confined to the larger cities, workmen in the
smaller towns remaining at their posts
through all the excitement. The reason
probably was, workmen in the smaller cities

Hon. Henry Mayo, of Ottawa, is spoken

it not that we believe Mr.. Shay's candidacy
necessary for the success of the republican
party this fall, there is no man the Free
Press would rather support, t,-Sredtor Free

All Of which is nuts for Shay but we
have just faint curiosity to know how
Mayo feels about it, especially now that the
convention is over and Mayo's gallant
slaughter of the anti Plumb faction has been
duly applauded for its splendid success. 1t
is rumored that Henry spent the cool of
Thursday morning rehearsing his cuss die
tiOnary in South Ottawa back lot. How
ever that may be, it must be exceedingly
cheering to man like Mayo, who has devo-
ted so much Of his time and talents to
slaughtering the rebs since the war, and
who has led his g. o. p. to victory in the past
many time, to play the fiddle now while a
man like Shay does the dancing and kisses
