WASHINGTON. ID. c., Nov. q, 1891.
The tariff-sulashers. the silver-inf1a.
tiOnisrS. the calamity wilers and Farm
ers alliance soft-heads all went in Ohio
before the rushing mighty wind of old
time Republicanism.
Hon. Wilson o. TalfOrd, State agent
t for Ohio. whose home is at the Buckeye
capltal. said ut the Ebbitt last night
'In my Judgment Senator Sherman has
no cause for the least worry about
his reelection. His great services in
the recent election are too deeply appre-
ciated by republicans to make his retire.
ment possible If it had not been for
John Sherman the story of the late cam
paign might have been f. different. You
can set it down that he will be his own
successor, or Ohio contains lot of the
tallest liars in ChristendOm."
Editor Flickinger Of the Ohio State
7omrnaI, who IS also Mt the Ebbitt. is
equally sanguine concerning the Sena-
tors prospects.
Hon. John Dwight, of the New York
State Republican Committee. remarked
at Chamberlain's yesterday: New York
city is in the fight to secure the Repub-
lican National Convention, and she is in
it to win. No place in the Union can
offer such facilities as New York, with
her unrivaled Madison Square Garden.
A delegation of our strongest citizens
Chauncy Depcw, Hon. Tom Plat, War
ner Miller, J. Sloat Fassett, Cornelius
Bliss. and others of equal prominence
will be here by the close of the week to
press the claims of the metropolis. Mark
my prediction, New York is i'm it to win"
The quarters which have been engaged
at the Arlington Hotel for preliminary
work by the committees coming here to
capture the Republican convention indi-
cate that the fight is to be conducted re-
CARELESS to expense. The national COM
mittee will meet in the banquet hall of
the hotel, a spacious apartment, capable
of holding several hundred people, and
it will be appropriately fitted up for the
occasion. The parlOr immediatlv ad-
joining will be set apart as cOnsulta-
ton room for the committee. BY taking
the blue aud gold parlOr the Minneapolis
delegation will get as close to the COM
mittee as possible, while across the hall
in the rear reception r"Om, will be the
Cincinnati headquarters. Omaha will
be located in the old reception room
adjoining the main entrance, and San
Francisco will hold forth in the ladies'
parlOr, ON II street. New York will be
pleasantly domiciled somewhere near
Senator Hiscock's handsome suit of
rooms, in the summer annex to the hotel,
and Chicago has parlor engaged. All
these headquarters will be opened to-
morrow. when the fight will begin in
earnest.
A new committe for convention honors
SHE'D its castor into the ring last night,
a dispatch having been received from
Detroit saying that committee repre-
senting that city wOald be here before
next Monday. Detroit has just enter
tanned and immense crowd most success
fully and has large exposition hall to
place at the disposal of the convention.
Its representatives will be Handicapped,
however, by entering the field at the
eleventh hour.
Before the National Convention meets
the subject of Presidential and Vice Pres
dential candidates will naturally be dis
.ussed, and it is eminently proper that q
subject in which the sixty millions Of
American people are SO much Interested
should attract attention.
On the Republican side Governor
elect Mckinley, Of Ohio, must now enter !
nto consideration when Republican pos
;ibilities are discussed. He is not rep
'escnted in the light Of Presidential
sspirant; but contingency might arise
when his nomination might become ex-
,edient. That he would be emineDtly
is universally admitted. He is
