legislature will send him to the senate.
Both Foraker and Foster will have to stand
aside in his favor. Indeed the work of
vindication will probably be initiated by
placing him at the head of the republican

The boy game railroad corporations so
frequently annoy each other with is incom-
prehensible to the ordinary mortal. Here

the American Midland railroad has been
trying to get across the Lake Erie and
Western railway with it's line at Findlay,
Ohio, but has been prevented by the vigil
