The Cbii
figuring on ^ f
ballot in the Cliicago convention.
It gives totals as follows : Grant,
410, Blaine, 232, Sherman, 97 ;
Edmunds, 10. It then says :
" This showing gives Grant a
majority of thirty-two over all ou
the first ballot. Friends oi the
other candidates will doubtless see
very readily where they can sub-
tract from this majority, but there
are several reasons why it may be
jeared, ttijt tb^ee figures may ave-
rage even" short of Grant's sup-
poit. His friends have not antag-
onized the frieuds of Blaine and
Sherman, though the Sherman
and Blaine men have been fighting
him as well as fighting each other.
Should it come to a smash-up for
Sherman on the first ballot, most
of the Sherman vote would un-
doubtedly go to Grant, who will
in that event get the Edmunds
vote also. Altogether, the pros-
pect is very full of the shadow of
Grant."

rid of rats is to place within their
