684 - L. Oct. 20; ed:2/1 - "We see no indications as yet from Columbus
that the state is to be thoroughly aroused with great meetings between
this time and Nov. 8. If it is their opinion that no work of this
kind needs to be done, they are mistaken. We need to roll up a large
majority next month, and the moral effect of overwhelming success, the
effect of a hearty enthusiasm in this State, will have its effect in
other States." (3)

816 - H Feb. 23:2/2, 6 - The weather was bright and clear yesterday for
the opening of the great Sanitary fair in Cleveland. The train from Co-
lumbus arrived early today with the members of the state legislature. They
were given a dinner at the Weddell House, where Mayor I. U. Masters gave
a speech welcoming them to Cleveland. A parade was given by the members
of the 29th O. W. M. The immense audience hall was filled for the inau-
guration ceremonies. Mayor Masters presided and introduced the Rev. S. C.
Aiken of the First Presbyterian church, who opened the proceedings with a
prayer. Lieutenant Governor Anderson gave a speech in which he praised
Cleveland. Maj. Gen. J. A. Garfield also spoke, praising Ohio's gallant
soldiers of the civil war, and the great Sanitary fair was declared duly
opened. None of the departments were entirely finished, and their beauties
were not fully developed; but the general effect of floral hall, the
bazaar hall, the fine arts hall, and the museum was perfectly enchanting.
It is expected that every department connected with the fair will be fin-
ished today. (98)
