A Covert Attack on Gen. Grosvenor

The Columbus Journal is attack
ing Gen. Grosvenor. Of course the
Journal does not do so openly, bold
| ly, in Foraker fashion, but adopts
the John Sherman gum boot style.
1t howls in holy horror at the
Southren white people who lynch
negro rapests. 1t holds the leaders
in the locality where the lynching
occurred as being responsible for
the summary proceedings. the aw-
full violation of law; denounces
the Southren statesmen and brands
them as outlaws unworthy to have
a part in the public offices of our
country. But how does this reflect
upon Grosvener? OF the four ne
gros whose lynching is on record
for the awful, hellish crime, three
were linched IN the South and ONE
IN ATHENS, Ono. In Athens, in
the home of Gen. Grosvenor, under
the lights of the Ohio University
and within a stones throw of the
classic campus where Grosvenor
walks for inspiration when he is
about to promulgate key note to
the god and morality party of the
loyal, law abiding Republican north.
1t is that Gen. Grosvenor, leader.
q statesman, a keynoter, permitte d
a negro to be lynched by tho stall
wart men of Albany on the bridge,
that this arousement of the Journal
and its followers has busted out.
The Journal does not say that Gen.
Grosvenor was present ON the noted
occasion of the negro lynching, but
it is fair to suppose that he was, as
no important meeting of the people
occurs any place where he is not
present in person or by proxy, duly
accredited. The SENTINEL opposes
Gen. Grosvenor, but we do not like
the way the Journal does it. I'll
the General will write card ap-
proving or disappearing the Athens
ynching, we will take great pleas
IRE in publishing it. 1t is due to
our Republican candidate for con-
yress to be put right on this impor-
ant issue.

Why didn't the report denounce

places in Ohio, and why was not
the crime for which the brutes were
lynched also denounced. If the

Mr.. Neal Not a Candidate fol
Congress.

A few days sgo a dispatch appear
ed IN the Enquirer from Nelsonyille
calling upon Hon. Lawrence T.
Neal to make the race for Congress
in this district against Charley Gros
venor. The district is safely Re
publican by some $500 majority.
The Advertiser states upon the
authority of Mr.. Neal that he is moi
only not a candidate for Congress il
this district, but that under no cir
cumstances would he accept the
nomination.
Mr.. Neal very forcibly says tina:
be has on several occasions taken
nominations in hopelessiy Republi-
can districts and very properly feels
that somebody else should be draft
ed for that purpose this time.
Under these circumstances the
Advertiser does not believe that Mr..
Neal should be asked to make the
race for Congress this year. 1t
would also place the party in the
embarrassing position of having a
vacancy on the ticket to fill, as Mr..
Neal would surely decline the NOM
ination.-Chillicothe Advertiser.
The mere mention that Mr.. Neal
will not be candidate should have
been sufficient, unless, indeed, the
Advertiser proposes to conduct a
campaign of defeat. Mr.. Neal has
not been asked to be candidate yet.
The dispatch from Nelsonville was
prompted by Gen. Grosvenor and
Mr.. Meals organ nibbles like suck
er and is cleverly caught.
This district has many gentlemen
equally as capable as Mr.. Neal to
lead us in the campaign and repre-
sent US in Congress. Our candidate
will be chosen, not at the sugges-
tion of the Nelsonville Republican
correspondent of the Enquirer, but
by the Democratic convention.
He will be a democrat. He will be
a man worthy to lead the hopeful
democracy, capable to represent the
constituency of the llth
district in the next Democratic con-
grsss.
This district is not sssafely Re-
publican by some $500 majority"
unless the Advertiser joins forces
with the enemy.
Campbell was behind in the dis
trict only 1860. The Republican
majority at the last Congressional
was only 1858, and the
counties now composing this district
we're parts Of Dungan's and Encch's
district, both Of whom had no mate

was made to bring it out.
