themselves for the Christening tomorrow.
Tom Reed thinks he would make better
president than B. Harrison. We guess he is
right; he could scarcely make more insig
nifcant one.
According to Cleveland paper the Ohio
convention was in cheerful and cheering
mood The names of Harrison, Blaine, Fos-
ter, Foraker and Gov. Mckinley were greeted
with long, loud and enthusiastic applause
If these names were greeted by loud ap-
plause" by the same parties the convention
must have been in crazy quilt mood. Ger
tainly, no intelligent body of delegates would
combine to make the welkin ring with such
an incongruous wealth of enthusiasm.
Cheers for Harrison and Foraker are similar
in dementia to ringing whoops for 'old Ken
lucky rye and the Prohibition ticket.
Ferdinand Ward is out of Sing Sing, and
one more Young Napoleon of finance is

practical oblivion.
No confidence is violated in the suggestion
that Candidate Wright finds it real touching

Yesterday the preacher p=sught real earn
estly. In behalf of sinners? oh, no. In be-

If. as according to Candidate Col Fred P.
Wright, "the foreigners are not running this
country yet" of course he would feel very
much chagrined if stray foreigner should
chance to drop q ballot in the slot on which
was printed his name. That, you. know,
would be running the country" TO a certain
extent and Col. Wright would feel, naturally,
