Tlie regularity with which Ohio gpes democratic once In six years Is one of the extraordinary phonometia of American politics and upon the maintenance of the tradition Ill's year depend results of un usual national Import, more telling even to the republicans than to their opponents sn.vs the correspondent of the Boston Traiicr'pt. Hut for a little piece of polit ical intriuue this tradition of sexennial swervinir from the regular course of re piibllcanMn would this time seem worth little, and a favorite Buckeye siipersti Hon would take a start on the road to oblivion. Ohio elects a governor to succeed Wil liam MeKlnley. and a lec'slature which will choose a sueeesor to Snatar Bticc. i Tlie I'tate has hitherto divided Its repre sentation In the Senate between tlie two parties, and John Shermnn has bad .1 dcmieritle eolle.ijrue beside him.

The democrats are "talking" of curry ing Ohio this yuar, and some very plausi ble reasons are assigned by the party editors of tlie State for expecting that they will do so. But a study of the elec tion returns of the larl two years would liirdly assuie the unprejudiced observer that such would be the case were It not for tin- presence of "a colored gentleman In the wooilp'le" whose movements are bo ginn'iig lo attract attention. TUB Rl'IAT. DHAIOCRATIC IIOPH. Two fa ".ions of ili-dlsgulsed hostility exist In the republican camp, and at the reeen: "'(invention wh'ii Hushnell was nominated for governor, a trove between the factions was arranged in a division of tirst two prizes. Foi alter was to have the United States Senatorsliln, If the re- 1 lull II 'Iiijs earrlcl tho State, and Mr. Mr , Klnley was proml'stifj the Ohio delegation at tlie next republican national eonven t'on. Hut the charge is openly made in politieal circles that the McKlnleyltes, while co-operating in electing Hushnell and the regular State ticket, will "throw" t,i" Legislature and allow Senator Briee to be his own succesror. They lVare.l For aker, who is now clearly in possession of the State machine, and they think that their presidential NapoJ-on will be safe 'only 'With his opponent out of the way, and that nothing v-lll so suiely brill-; about this result as tlie loss of the Legis lature.

MORTON'S CANDIDACY. The New N ork cm respond) nt of the rhiladeli lila Ledger n;.s: "While Gov.' Morton lias been formally picsonted for the piesldiiicy by the republican 'State conv nlion, and will unquestionably be loyally supported by the Now York dele gation as lotiR as there is a chance of his success, it can not truthfully be said that i as yet there Is any large amount of conn deneo in his candidacy. Ills advanced age Is regarded as a heavy , handicap In the! race for the presidential nomination. ' While thro is the utmost inspect and jrood feeling for Gov. Morton, there Is much more interest taken in the question of bow the delegation will vote when bo is withdrawn then there Is In the presenta tion of his name. In other words, the quest Ion everybody asks Is: 'Whom does Piatt favor next to Morton?' The answer usually given Is: 'Thomas II. Reed.' It nhi,, ti.nt tin. niieers fnr Reed tit the Saratoga convention rang out loud er than thOFo for anyone else, and that was a Piatt convention. It Is known that Mr. Piatt is opposed to Hnrrison. He Is not I believed to favor MoKlhley, who is the candidate rather of the anti-Rlatt element I In tins city, or of the Stione-Bllss section of It. In isi2 the 'Big Foui' divided. De-pi-w nnd Iliscotk supported Harrison, and Piatt and Miller supported Blabie. Mi Depew, It Is believed, still favots llari' son. next, of course, to Moitnn. lliscock Is no longer a factor In the situation. The 'Big Four' has in fact dwindled to a 'B.y One.' and Mr. Piatt Is tile 'one.' If he says Reed, the ex-speaker will certainly be the second choice of a mnjority of the New York delegates. La ut. -Gov. Saxton says that Warner Miller h'..-.?elf wrote the plank In the New Ymk iepubliean platform favoring the maintenance of the Sunday lns. He hopes the democrats will take the oppo site stand on the subject. If they do lie has no doubt the republicans will sweep tin' Sta'e by ltiO.iMO majority. THU OTIinil SIDE TOLD. i Willie the democratic newspapers arc try. ng to make out that Gov. MeKin'.ev a. id Ilx-Goy. Forsker of Ohio are al swords points it is interesting to note what Foraker has to say for himself 01 this subject. In an interview with .1 rep icsrntatlvo of the Chicago Times-Herald, an independent now3paper, he spoke In part as follows: "It Is nothing unusual for the country to be Interested In an Ohio election, but we understand why theio is an especial ,11 i'. 'si at tills time. Our pi nd.ng ean .ns is tlie opening of the light of Is."'., and the next election in Ohio will doubt less i.avu much to do with the candidacy of Gov. MeKlnley for tho presidency. The republican situation In Ohio Is good. In General Husbnell we have an uiiusullay popular candidate, our luterp.irty tights have all ended at the convention, and fiom tliu tune nominations have been made until the election Is over all our guns have 1" en turned on the common enemy. WhateVir1 differences we had preceded and ended , with t lie .anesv.llc cun enl'on. Sine. then there has been only unity of purpose and i Ifori. The outcome will be a victory in Nov. mhor all along the line, General 1 Hushnell will be the next Oovi mor of j Ohio, the general assembly will be repub-j 11, an, and the noxt cnttcii states .-senator will be a republican."' Tin- di mocratle press of this state tins been laboring for months to croato dif ferences among republicans, knowing that , in no o'.her way was thure any chance for democratic success, lu this behalf democratic newspapers have published all sorls of stories and statements that are utterly without foundation in truth. I read someth'ng In democratic newspapers every day that 1 never before heaid of or even thought of In conneclioii with Ohio politics. We have understood the policy of our democratic friends In this reganl. and have paid no attention to what they have said. THE REPUBLICAN OUTLOOK. Surely If there was ever a time when the republicans were sure of the next presi dency It Is now. Hoed, Harrison or Alli son would carry the country overv. hel mingly. But Ohio's candidate Is Gover nor -MeKlnley. While all enthusiastic ie publicans are protectionists, Governor Mo. Klnley Is the most emphatic representa tive of that idea that we have lu the party. That question Is the leading ques tion now before the people. In all piobab lllty It will be the controlling question next year. It so, that will make Governor Me Klnley the logical candidate. If we are to light a battle upon that issue, we should put our leading reprcentatlve In the foio front of the bitle. Ohio bus already de clared for him by resolution adopted at the .nnesvllle convention. She will ad hoar to him and support him with a .solid delegation.
