Judge Gresham's Value.

Democbats can afford to exchange General Sickles for Judge Gresham.— Toledo Bee. The action of Judge Gresham takes Indiana out of the list of doubtful States. There is not the least question about that.—Evansville Courier. “I shall vote for Mr. Cleveland, and that is all there is about it,” says Judge Gresham. Well, there is a good deal about that.—Louisville Times. When life-long Republicans like Judge Gresham, Judge Coo'ey and General MacVeagh bolt their party’s ticket there is something decidedly wrong with that ticket. —Wheeling Register. The accession of Judge Gresham, Judge Cooley and ex-Attorney General MacVeagh 'to the ranks of Democracy is likely to cause a panic among the Republican managers.—St. Lonis PostDispatch. It is safe to say that it means more than the transfer of a few doubtful Western States to the Cleveland column. Judge Gresham has a very large following both in the Republican and

People’s parties.—Philadelphia Record. His example will be followed by all who, like him, have respect for their convictions and strength of character to assert themselves.—lllinois State Register. The number of voters who will follow his lead will be even larger than would have been the case if he had yielded to the blandishments of the third party.— Buffalo Inquirer. To him as to great multitudes of people, the truth is no longer disguisable that the McKinley bill was passed for the benefit of a comparatively few persons.—Brooklyn Citizen. It carries consternation into the enemy’s camp. It defeats the last ray of hope of carrying Indiana for Harrison. It makes the State of Illinois doubly doubtful.—Utica Observer. We know of no man whose defection would injure the Renublican party in the West more than Judge Gresham’s. He is a man of the highest character.— Macon Telegraph. The accession of Judge Gresham will go far toward breaking the backbone of the Harrison ticket in Indiana, Illinois and other Western States where he is most popular and has been commanding influence.—Rochester Union.
