Special Dispatch to Tux EVENING SrAs.
COLUMBUS, ONO, Sept T.-Just prior to his
leaving Cincinnati to take up his residence in
New York ex-Gov. George Hoadly was rendered
q banquet by his admiring democratic friends.
The occasion was one long to be remembered;
the representative men Of the democracy of the
queen city were out in force and no expense or
care was spared to give the genial ex-governor
a ssnd-off worthy of the city of pork, and the
Hamilton county democracy in particular. 1t was
a notable gathering, taken as q whole, and Mr..
Hoadly fully appreciated the high compliment
paid him. The ex-governor made q most elo-
quent speech near the close Of the festivities
speech that will probably never be forgotten
by those who listened to it, and one that will
be referred to i'll years to come as the most re-
markable, considering the occasion and the
gathering Of political friends whose guest he
was. With well measured words, and appar-
emily fully considering their weight, just be-
fore closing, as if to more deeply impress the
company, Gov. Hoadly said.
Never again, never again. fellow dsmocrsts compel
an honorable man to contemplate, as had to, with

TO SAT THAT THIS SHOT
produced CONSERVATION goes without the say
ing. Gov. Hosdly, however, as an honest man
could do no less than he did, as at the election
to which he referred the msnipulstors, ballot
box suffers and forgers performed the work
which, had it not been discovered, would have
retired Mr.. Sherman from senatorial life.
In the present campaign Gov. Foraker is
using, the above paragraph of Gov. Hoadly's
speech as text for some Of his political
speeches, and it is needless to say that they
are made very effective and applicable at the
present time, as the democratic managers this
year are identically the same as In 1885, when
MIR. Hoadly was credited with 926 votes that be
avowed he never received.
Had Mr.. Campbell received his nomination
at the hands Of the democracy of the state he
would give Gov. Foraker q very hard fight, but
unfortunately for him the nomination was Sc
cured and passed over to him by the same
elsment-the Cincinnati contingent-that
guided and controlled affairs four years ago,
and after the election made midnight trips to
Columbus and other points by special trains
on political business, and but a few days prior
to the discovery Of
TIE FORGED TALLY SHEETS.
Had Mr.. Campbell the ability to make an sg-
gressive campaign We would have very warm
politics in Ohio now. Tho quiet observer cas-
ually remarks that the Butler Pony is not
only in too fast company but badly handi-
capped pSsioe.
Thus far there have been but few bets made
on the result, but Col. Marshall, a well-known
citizen, authorizes the statement that he has
81, 900 to place on Foraker in sums of 500 or
the full amount
Probably the most significant wager thus far
made WAS for a silk tile. Ex-Gov Charles
Foster met some OF his democratic friends from
various parts of the state in Columbus q few
days since, when the result Of the election was
good humoredly talked over. The ex-governor
and well-known democrat placed their figures
upon slips of paper and both compared them
and passed them over to a third party, to hold
until after the election. Gov Foster remarked
to his democratic friend, You concede to
Foraker 1900 more than do"
A SIGNIFICANT STRAW
This wager is looked upon as q straw, and is
believed to indicate the enthusiasm of the old
rock-ribbed fellows for Mr.. Campbell. referred
to as the galvanized democrat and candidate
for governor. might add that the gentlsp,au
referred to as making the wager was at one
time an aspirant for the democratic guberna-
torial nomination.
1t seems now quite manifest that the demo-
Gratis will play their highest cards for the legs-
lature and leave Mr.. Campbell to take care Of
himself.
Col Fred Blankner, one Of the kesnest of
observers. SAYS: u do not regard Campbell in
the race at all, but tell you II the republicans
expect TO carry the legislature and elect a
United States Senator they will have to hus-
