RECENT developments in the Senate
Clerkship fight tend to show that an
nouncements to the effect that Mr..
John II. Snodgrass, of this city, had
withdrawn from the contest were en-
tirely too previous. The latest infor-
nation we gather is to the effect that
Mr.. Snodgrass is still an active candi-
date with daily increasing chances of
ultimate success.
In this connection it is simple us
tice to correct an error of omission ap-
pearing in Wednesdays Leader, in
which Washington county was declar-
ed to be for Barr, on the assumption
that the dispatches from Columbus an
nouncing Mr.. Snodgrass' withdrawal
were true. The Leader is as strong a
supporter of Mr.. Snodgrass as it ever
was and we think we may speak for
the Republicans of the entire County
and senatorial district in saying all are
favorable to his candidacy as long as
he desires to stay in the fight. This
county is for Barr for second choice.
but not as against Snodgrass, whose
appointment the Leader has urged
editorially as a deserved recognition
of a capable and active young Republi-

ALTHOUGH having long since come to
the end of his rope and hung himself,
the irresponsible youth who writes
sporting matter for the Commercial
Gazette is still kicking spasmodcally
over the Thanksgiving day game of
football. The vital spark that keeps
his limbs gyrating is supposed to be To-
Gated somewhere on McMicken avenue.
BY the spirit of fairness pervading
the athletic associations of colleges
other than University OF Cincinnati the
latter is ballked in her pitiful attempt
to form football association in south
ern Ohio and leave out Marietta, one
of the best teams in the state. L. C.
is consequently angered out of all
sense of decency and vents it's spite in
abusing Marietta with the assistance
of blackguard sporting writer's.
AS we have said before, Cincinnati's
reputation is about as sayory through.
out the state as it is in Marietta.
