Of the Capitol Governor Hayes came up, and alter
shaking hands began political conversation. and In
the OF that conversation said:"0n tho ques-
tion hnance the Resumption act and tho necessity
OF reform will be badly beaten We must wave the
bloody shirt and revive the bitter preudlccs OF tho
war" OF Governor Hayes, In giving utteranco
to this expression, supposed Mr. CASTOR to be repub
lican as be was company with u republican lawyer
from Toledo at the This of course, then, proves
concusvely that tho republican candidate for Presi-
dent the United States has alth whatever n the
possibility Of that party being successful in the pres
ent campaign with fair discussion OF the living is
OF the day. although he himself is an earnest
OF forced resumption Al the end OF the conversation
Mr. CASTOR said :-''You have no doubt OF the result
Governorsn TO which he answered :sI do rot like to
speak dogmatcaily on that question. The Germans or
Ohio arc treating US very badly"


Mr. Gaslou VIII vouch for the truth OF this circum
stance, and there is doubt that actually occurred
as reported and il Governor Hayes is the honest man
which his friends claim, and which We have always
supposed him, he VIII not deny It,


EX-GOVERNOR WILLIAM ALLEN THINKS OHIO


DounTFUL-rHE POLITICAL OUTLOOK.


[From the Cincinnati Commercial, Sept 30


..Do you think the success of the democratic party
would have the cec. OF revivng tho secession proclv
ities OF the Southern peoples"


Governor rALLEy-Fudge! No. The Southern people
are anxious to be reconcled with the North. They
want to GO work and earn their living. They don't
desire n separation, and they don't want anything but
proportionate power In the government OF the
country This agitation of sectional prcjudlccs is most
inschievous and the efforts OF the politicians to mako
the Northern people believe that the South ID trying
gain by stealth shc failed to achieve by iorcc OF
arms arc damnable. II there is another attempt at
secession this country VIII be on the part OF the
North, and it will bc made by a lot Of republican





seek to keep alive all the bitter prejudice OF
tho war; and steadiastly labor to estranRe us
the people Of the South consider the success
of tho party especially important at the
present tme as u would have the eilcct OF alayng
whatever feeling may exist between thc two sections
and bringing the people Of the whole country into
better understanding o ther common interest pre-
serving the government running IL honestly II is
a sublime exhibition on the part OF the republicans TO
como forward and ask to be retained IN office after
their enormous crimes and tagrant mismanagement
No country can stand such maladministraiion long;
and as said before II tto republican party
ful in this election with ITS record tully and fairly
before the people, the result Will be heavy blow
the cause OF human rights. But don't think the
people will consent TO its continuance. believe thoy
have made up their minds to make change in the
control OF the government and that that change will
be TO the democratic party


asked the Governor how no thought Ohio would
..Its impossible to TELL !" was his reply. eve had
the state Dy 900 three weeks before the election last
ia but before election day came the republicans had
poured SO much money into the State that wc were
swamped. I'D have TO know now much money was
going 10 be used before could form anything like
close estimate OF the result"


II suppose you havo observed by the reports pub
lished in the newspapers that business Is reviving
throughout the country 7"


Governor ALLES-Oh yes. thought II was about
time for republicans to commence on that line.
That's Just dodse-an old trick Of the trade. The
party power always to mako out great revival
OF business just before an election. It's all
humbug this time. The only business xthat
has improved since the last panic is the
business OF bankruptcy, and II the re-
publican party succeeds that business will get better
every day. III Hayes aud Wheeler are elected you Will
business all the country dive into their
books and 60 to work winding up their commercial
AFFAIRS There question about H. the success Of
the republican party would be great calamity TO this
country whereas u democratic victory would DO the
beginning OF era oil peace and harmony such AS
would make the American people moro illusrious than
they now in the annals OF the world


With this last rather stIlted sentence the Governor
closed himself up, as 1t were, Tor interviewing pur-
poses, and the artist IRON New York entering the
room and catching him in tho act OF looking his BEST
the white haired sage begged TO be excused and
toted OF to the paint shop.
