Nearly all of the Ohio Republicans in Congress except General Garfield and Governor Young, will attend the Convention next Wednesday at Columbus. Evidently it will be lively.
CUMHACK, of Indiana, is spoken of for Vice-Preaidcut, We think the line should be drawn at Cumback. Mr. Wheeler can flah, but we doubt if Cumback could do more than cut bait,—Cin. Inquirer.
WR talked to a few gentlemen this morning who praised Joe Cook's lecture very highly. But they are men who never spent an hour on scientific literature. and who tldnk bombast means brains.

XEKEES ECHOES.
The McKeen boom gathers strength and volume mit travels. The fact is that Mr. McKeen is one of the most popular men in the state, and is deservedly so. We think he is, personally, several thousand votes stronger than any ticket the Republicans can nominate.—Ex.
The Indianapolis Journal crams columns of sense into the following paragraph Mr. McKeen is a man who could be elected if he would accept the nomination, snd if elected would make a creditable Governor. He is a practical, popular business man, and everv inch a gentleman.— Ex.
The Richmond Palladium is exactly right when it says W. R. McKeen of Terre Haute is the latest proposed candidate for Governor. It was an old custom to keep the best of the wine to the last of the feast possibly that rule iS now being applied to candidates. It looks like it in this case.—Ex.
The friends of Riley McKeen. of Terre Haute, are working up a boom for hinft for Governor. Mr. McKeen has spent largely of his means and time for the success of his party, and is in every way qualified for the position. Being of a genial disposition and very popular, he would make a strong race for the RepubcaiiH.—Sr/uth Bend Remitter.
WE publish this morning an article from the Terre Haute NEWS, proposing the name of W. R. McKeen as the Republican nominee for Governor. Mr. McKeen is a man who could be elected if he would accept the nomination, and if elected would make a creditable Governor. He is a practical, popular business man, and every inch a gentleman.—Imlianapolit Journal.
The Terre Haute News is out'for W. R. McKeen for Governor. There are few men in this state who possess greater executive ability than Mr McKeen. He has taken a deep interest in politics, and while not bein^, in the strictest sense of the word a politician, has been one of I he leading spirits of the Republican party. He combines many elements of strength for a candidate, and if elected would make a most excellent Governor.—Imganspurt Jounud.
Win. Ii. McKeen. President of the Vafidalia road, ih quite a popular man with all classes of railroad employes. He always has a kind word to say to railroad employes in a high or low position. Consequently there is a strong feeling in railroad circles in favor of making him Governor. and the boys at Terre Haute talk lo him quite plainly about the matter. To one lie remarked a day or two ago: "I don't want to be Governor of Indiana. There are other men who need the place, and would like to have it." But the prevailing opinion in Terre Haute is that Mr. McKeen will accept the nomination if tendered, and if nominated will be elected.— Indiaruipt'lix Journal.
Since the mention of W. R. McKeen for Governor, the situation has become entirely changed. After the withdrawal of Gen. Hunter it looked as if there could be no hearty concentration on any of I he men in the field asking the nomination, but since Mr. McKeen was spoken of there has been a wonderful crystalization of sentiment in his favor. All over the State there is a real, live boom for Mr. McKeen, of hujjc dimensions, and it is constantly growing.
Mr. McKeen is in no sense a candidate of his own volitiou. Those who know him intimately, and comprehend the magnitude of his responsibilities as the head of many of the largest enterprises of the State and the West, know something of the sacrifices he would have to make to be Governor of the .State. Mr. McKeen realizes this himself, to such an extent that he would be very loath to make them. Such sacrifices tio man should be called on to make, unless an emergency exists which prompt men to make personal sacrifices through patriotic impulses. Such a demand is made upon Mr. McKeen that he could afford to sacrifice his interests for the good of the whole people, and we believe, if the people confer upon him this nomination, he will make the sac rifide.
If is not necessary to refer to the availibility of of Mr. McKeen. as all nre acquainted with his great and deserved popularity among the people. His ability as an executive is not questioned, and his purity.as a statesman is synoniuious with his name.
The Courier hopes the Republicans of the State will mnke an unanimous call for hjm to become the standard bearer in the coming contest.—Saturday Courier.
Senator'Voorheea on West Point. From the Newcastle Courier. Judge Bundy has received the following letter from Senator Voorhecs
U. S. SKXATK CtiAMMsn, WASHINGTON, April 16, 1880.
I think the time has come for a revolution at West Point, and if the poor boy Whittakcr never does anything else he will at least cause such an overhauling as to put an end to the hazing and similar scenes of barbarism. He did not cut his own ears and I would not lelieve it even if he is coerced and brow-beaten until he confesses it. !L I-'

One of the primary objects of the Grand Army of the Republic is to perpetuate the memory and history of dead CQmradea-^-those who died in the service, as well as those since the close of the rebellion.

The information asked for can le given in person to either of the committee, or sent through the mail.
