are anything but happy crowd. The
friends Of Secretary Foster are indeed
quite blue over the demonstration at Co
lumbus in favor of Blaine, and particular

anything but encouraging for Harrison, and as
Senator sherman has virtually been repudlated
in favor OF the Ex-Governor who ruled the con-
yention Il means that tho friends Of sherman
will use the knife with dexterity.
