Newspapers of the political opposition
had been hugging the belief for some
time that there was a serious division
In the republican forces OF Ohio, and
they have promulgated that belief so
persistently and ostentatiously that the
impression was created that there was
really something In IL. hut as the event
proved. there wasn't.
