COLUMBUS, Ohio —
Two of Ohio’s winningest
politicians did it again
Tuesday, as Republican Mike DeWine won
the governorship and
Democratic Sen. Sherrod
Brown won a third term
in what was an otherwise
third consecutive strong
statewide election for

Republicans.
Brown, ﬁrst elected to
an Ohio ofﬁce in 1974,
defeated fourth-term
U.S. Rep. Jim Renacci.
DeWine, who began winning elections later in
the 1970s, turned back
Democrat Richard Cordray, President Barack
Obama’s appointee as
federal consumer protection chief.
DeWine won a rematch
of the 2010 election
when he narrowly ousted
Cordray to become attorney general. DeWine is a
former U.S. senator, congressman and lieutenant

governor, among other
positions.
DeWine kept the
governorship Republican with incumbent
Gov. John Kasich termlimited, and Republicans
also won statewide races
to keep the secretary of
state, attorney general,
treasurer and auditor for
the GOP.
Brown called his victory proof that “progres-

sives can win — and
win decisively — in
the heartland.” Brown,
criticized as voting like
“a Hollywood liberal” by
Renacci, has agreed on
Trump’s moves to toughen trade agreements. But
his victory speech made
clear that he disapproves
of the president’s rhetoric
and other policies.
“We do not appeal to
some by pushing down
others,” Brown said. “We
do not lie. We do not
engage in hate speech.

AS THE OLD OHIO FLOWS…

Brotherly love in a time of war
By Jordan Pickens
Special to the Sentinel

“Behold, how good and how
pleasant it is for brethren to dwell
together in unity! It is like the precious ointment upon the head, that
ran down upon the beard, even
Aaron’s beard: that went down to
the skirts of his garments; As the
dew of Hermon, and as the dew
that descended upon the mountains of Zion: for there the Lord
commanded the blessing, even life
for evermore,” Psalm 133: 1-3. This
bit of scripture in the bible holds
many different meanings to me,
as it may for you as well, but I am
thinking about brotherly love and
what that means in reference to
this verse.
I keep thinking of how we are
approaching the 100th anniversary
of the end of The Great War, commonly known today as World War
I. I am continuing to piece together
a story for next week on that subject, but I came across a 154-yearold letter from the Civil War
between two brothers, Thomas and
Richard Horden of Bradbury. I will
enclose the letter to begin with and
then the story behind the letter at
the conclusion. (Note: The letter
will be written with included grammatical errors, as in the original.)
UNION
June The First 1864
My Dear Brother,
It is with pleasure that I write
these few lines to you hoping to
ﬁnd you in good healtth as this
leaves me at present. I thought I
would write you to ﬁnd wether you
was living or not. I wrot homes
several times for your directions
but I never got them until I got the
last letter. I knowed you was in
2 Virginia Cavalry but I did not
know who company. I volenterd
in Pittsburg so I would be along
side of you. The captain Ivolenterd under is name is Migraw the
eleven Pennsylvanaia Company G

Col. Colter. The captain told me I
would have to go to his regiment
nd then he would transfer me to
the regiment where you was but
the captain has not come to his
regiment yet but still think I will
stay here where I am. I volenterd
in the last of March in Pittsburg
I received a couple of letters about
my mothers death. I am very sorry
but it is a road we will have to go
some time or other but it is little
we think about it when we are in
good health. Beesy is in Coalport
now. We have a hard time of it
here now we have meen ﬁghting
and marching all this month. We
ﬁt with the enemy 10 days hand
running oir regiment is cut up very
badely we have lost very near all
our ofﬁcers we lost about 700 killed
and wounded. The ﬁrst seven days
were some of us ﬁghting everyday
here. William is doing very well
at home. Maryhart has lost two
of her children, the oldest one and
the little Simey, I think is the other
one. I want you to write me as soon
as you get this letter and let me
know how you are getting along, so
more at present.
From your affectionate bother,
Thomas Horden to his brother
Richard Horden, 11 Pennsylvania
Pr. Company G, in care of Col. Colter, Washington.
Thomas Horden’s letter to his
brother Richard Horden, Sr.,
embodies that true meaning of
brotherly love. At the outbreak
of the Civil War, this man ﬁrst
thought of his brother. He knew
he wanted to join in the cause and
Thomas, who was in Pennsylvania, wanted to ﬁght alongside his
brother Richard who was serving
in Ohio. Thomas joined in hopes,
and with the promise, he would be
transferred to the Ohio regiment
with his brother, but luck broke
against him, and Thomas was not
able to be transferred.
In Virginia, on Feb. 5, Brevet
Brigadier General David Gregg’s

cavalry division rode out to the
Boydton Plank Road via Reams
Station and Dinwiddie Court
House in an attempt to intercept
Confederate supply trains. Major
General G.K. Warren with the V
Corps crossed Hatcher’s Run and
took up a blocking position on the
Vaughan Road to prevent interference with Gregg’s operations. Two
divisions of the II Corps under
Major General A.A. Humphreys
shifted west to near Armstrong’s
Mill to cover Warren’s right ﬂank.
Late in the day, Major General
John B. Gordon attempted to turn
Humphreys’ right ﬂank near the
mill but was repulsed. During the
night, the Federals were reinforced
by two divisions. On February 6,
Gregg returned to Gravelly Run
on the Vaughan Road from his
unsuccessful raid and was attacked
by elements of Brigadier General
John Pegram’s Confederate division. Warren pushed forward a
reconnaissance in the vicinity of
Dabney’s Mill and was attacked
by Pegram’s and Major General
William Mahone’s divisions. It was
here when Thomas was killed in
battle on Feb. 6, 1865, his letter
having still not made it to Richard.
As the years continued, Richard
never heard from Thomas. Richard ﬁnally learned of his brother’s
death through documents from the
war department.
Much to Richard’s surprise, in
June of 1882, he was handed the
letter his brother had written him
all those years ago. According to
Pomeroy’s newspaper The Daily
News, Dec. 11, 1922, edition, “The
envelope bore many postmarks. It
had been to the dead letter ofﬁce
several times, but always the post
ofﬁce department would start it on
another journey, hoping it would
carry the message of the sender to
the brother.”

TOKYO — Asian shares erased earlier gains to
close mostly lower Wednesday, with the Democrats looking set to regain a majority in the U.S.
House of Representatives, complicating President
Donald Trump’s policymaking agenda.
The outcome of the midterm election was
largely expected but it raised uncertainty about
the way ahead, especially for Trump’s pursuit of an
“America ﬁrst” trade strategy that has drawn the
world’s two biggest economies into a trade war.
Most Asian benchmarks spent a large share of
the day in positive territory but retreated in late
trading. The future contracts for the Dow and the
S&amp;P 500 were marginally higher.
“European and U.S. futures are struggling to
make up their mind as investors digest the implication of the midterm election,” said Naeem Aslam
of Thinkmarkets.com.
“One thing is for certain, the midterm election
was mainly about Trump. President’s policies have
divided the country and this was the ﬁrst major
political test of his presidency,” he said in a commentary.
Wall Street, which closed higher overnight,
appeared on an upbeat course. U.S. futures were
higher, with the contract for the Dow up 0.1 percent at 25,661.00 and the S&amp;P 500 adding 0.1
percent to 2,762.00.
In Asia, Japan’s benchmark Nikkei 225 gave
up 0.3 percent to ﬁnish at 22,085.80 and South
Korea’s Kospi slipped 0.5 percent to 2,078.69.
Hong Kong’s Hang Seng dropped 0.5 percent to
26,056.39, while the Shanghai Composite fell 0.7
percent to 2,641.34.
Australia’s S&amp;P/ASX 200 rose 0.4 percent to
5,896.90. Shares also rose in Singapore, Taiwan
and Indonesia.
A primary concern is the potential for dents
in pan-Paciﬁc trade that might hobble growth in
the area’s export-reliant economies. Trump has
imposed penalty tariffs of up to 25 percent on
$250 billion of Chinese imports, and Beijing has
responded with tariffs on $110 billion of American
goods.

Wall Street was poised
for similar gains, with
both the Dow and the
S&amp;P 500 futures up 0.9
percent.
The outcome of the
vote could magnify President Donald Trump’s
legal troubles and complicate his policymaking
agenda. It was unclear
how the divided Congress
might affect his pursuit of
an “America ﬁrst” trade
strategy that has drawn
the U.S. and China, the
world’s two biggest economies, into a trade war.
“A split Congress will,
in all likelihood, not stop

TODAY IN HISTORY
Today is Thursday, Nov. 8, the 312th day of
2018. There are 53 days left in the year.
Today’s Highlight in History:
On Nov. 8, 2016, Republican Donald Trump was
elected America’s 45th president, defeating Democrat Hillary Clinton in an astonishing victory
for a celebrity businessman and political novice.
Republicans kept their majorities in the Senate
and House.
On this date:
In 1892, former President Grover Cleveland
defeated incumbent Benjamin Harrison, becoming the ﬁrst (and, to date, only) chief executive
to win non-consecutive terms to the White
House.
In 1923, Adolf Hitler launched his ﬁrst attempt
at seizing power in Germany with a failed coup

In 1950, during the Korean War, the ﬁrst jetplane battle took place as U.S. Air Force Lt. Russell J. Brown shot down a North Korean MiG-15.
In 1960, Massachusetts Sen. John F. Kennedy
defeated Vice President Richard M. Nixon for the
presidency.
In 1966, Edward W. Brooke (R-Mass.) became
the ﬁrst black candidate to be elected to the U.S.
Senate by popular vote.
In 1972, the premium cable TV network HBO
(Home Box Ofﬁce) made its debut with a showing of the movie “Sometimes a Great Notion.”
In 1974, a federal judge in Cleveland dismissed
charges against eight Ohio National Guardsmen
accused of violating the civil rights of students
who were killed or wounded in the 1970 Kent
State shootings.
In 1987, 11 people were killed when an Irish
Republican Army bomb exploded as crowds
gathered in Enniskillen, Northern Ireland, for a
ceremony honoring Britain’s war dead.
In 1994, midterm elections resulted in Republicans winning a majority in the Senate while at
the same time gaining control of the House for
the ﬁrst time in 40 years.
In 2000, a statewide recount began in Florida,
which emerged as critical in deciding the winner
of the 2000 presidential election. Earlier that day,
Vice President Al Gore had telephoned Texas
Gov. George W. Bush to concede, but called back
about an hour later to retract his concession.
Waco special counsel John C. Danforth released
his ﬁnal report absolving the government of
wrongdoing in the 1993 siege at the Branch
Davidian compound in Texas.
In 2002, the U.N. Security Council unanimously approved Resolution 1441, aimed at forcing
Saddam Hussein to disarm or face “serious consequences.” President George W. Bush said the
new resolution presented the Iraqi regime “with
a ﬁnal test.”

THEIR VIEW

The story of my brief, ill-fated political career
I had a lot of bad ideas
in college.
Many of them came
about after a night of
imbibing.
Most of them were illfated attempts to impress
a girl.
All of them provided
me with some of my fondest memories.
And that’s how, in the
winter of 1996, I began
(and quickly ended) my
political career when I
ran for student body president at The Ohio State
University.
As is the case with so
many of my favorite college memories, the night
began over a few beers at
Buffalo Wild Wings, then
located at the corner of
Frambes and and High
Street near campus. I was
working at the school
newspaper, The Lantern,
and my journalism colleagues and I had just
ﬁnished putting out our

and had gathered for our
weekly “Lantern Happy

more pitchers we drank,
the more jealous we were clearly would clearly lead

to some sort of romantic
interlude.
It would be just like
being a Kennedy!
We ﬁgured the ﬁrst
thing we needed to
do was come up with
a campaign platform.
We ﬁgured we would
do something no other
politician had ever done
before … we were going
to be completely honest
about our intentions. Our
literal campaign platform
was that we wanted to be
elected in order to receive
all of the perks that came
along with being in ofﬁce.
We even challenged our
competitors — none of
whom would admit those
weren’t at least part of the
reason they were running
for ofﬁce — to offer to
give up said perks if their
intentions were as noble
as they had claimed.
Our campaign slogan
was, quite literally, “You
know why we are running!”
All of this seemed like
a pretty good idea at
the time. Of course, that
also may have been the
fermented hops talking. I
think we knew we mostly

were running as a joke,
but as the campaign wore
on, there was a small part
of me that believed that
we might just be able to
pull off one of the biggest
miracles in political history.
And hey, at the very
least, I was getting to
spend time with Tiffany
C., with whom I was terribly infatuated.
Eventually, election day
came. Incredibly, there
still was a small part
of me that believed we
would win — which was
even more comical that
since we had started our
campaign so late in the
process, we weren’t even
on the ballots and were
write-in candidates.
Perhaps not surprisingly, we didn’t win. It
wasn’t even close. But
we did set a record for
write-in votes cast. Even
less of a surprise, nothing romantic ever blossomed betwen Tiffany C.
and myself. Even better,
though, she remains one
of my very best friends to
this day.
It was a valuable
learning experience for

me (on several different levels). My biggest
take away, however, was
that I am not cut out for
politics. It takes a certain
amount of dedication,
commitment and bravado
that I do not possess.
Another election came
and went Tuesday night,
and many candidates
woke up Wednesday
morning feeling the same
sort of disappointment
I felt that day, but on a
much grander scale.
To them, I would say
this: While the election
numbers may not have
turned out in your favor,
you had the guts to run.
You didn’t sit back and
merely complain about
the state of affairs; you
threw your hat in the ring
and tried to enact change.
For that, you all have my
respect and admiration
(even if you may not
necessarily have had my
vote).
I hope your memories
are as fond as mine.

RedStorm
women blast
Miami-Hamilton
By Randy Payton
For Ohio Valley Publishing

RIO GRANDE, Ohio — It took a bit for the
engine to start humming but, once it did, it was a
classic example of pedal pressed to metal.
The University of Rio Grande used a big second
quarter run to blow open a tight game and fuel an
eventual 112-42 rout of Miami University-Hamilton, Monday night, in non-conference women’s
basketball action at the Newt Oliver Arena.
Rio Grande improved to 2-0 with its follow-up
effort to Saturday’s season-opening 80-point win
over Ohio University-Lancaster.
Miami-Hamilton, which suffered a 59-point loss
at Wilberforce University in its season opener on
Saturday, slipped to 0-2.
The Harriers trailed just 29-18 after a conventional three-point play by Elizabeth Sweet with
9:30 remaining in the ﬁrst half, but the RedStorm
went on a 20-0 run over the next 5-1/2 minutes to
open up a 31-point advantage.
Rio Grande led by no less than 29 points the
rest of the way.
The lead grew to 38 points by halftime and, by
the time that MU-Hamilton scored its ﬁrst points
of the second half on a pair of free throws by Jerria
White with 2:41 left in the period, the RedStorm
had pushed their cushion to 62 points, 85-23.
Rio’s biggest lead of the night was 75 points
after a jumper by sophomore Makayla Liedtke
(Beverly, OH) made it 108-33 with 4:14 left in the
game.
Senior Chelsy Slone (Gallipolis, OH) led the
RedStorm with a career-high 21 points - 17 of
which came in the ﬁrst half. She ﬁnished 9-for-11
from the ﬂoor and also added seven rebounds in a
solid all-around performance.
Fellow senior Jasmine Smith (Canal Winchester,
OH) added 17 points of her own in the winning
effort on 8-of-9 shooting, surpassing the 1,000point mark for her career in the process. She
also had a game-high nine rebounds, ﬁve assists
and two blocked shots in just over 20 minutes of
action.
Liedtke tallied 14 points, while sophomore Jimi
Howell (Barberton, OH) and freshman Avery
Harper (Seaman, OH) had 11 points each for Rio
Grande, which shot 59 percent from the ﬂoor and
out rebounded its guests, 63-11.
All 11 players in uniform for the RedStorm had
at least two points and two rebounds, while nine
of the 11 had at least one of the team’s 28 assists
and eight of the 11 had at least one of the team’s
19 steals.
Junior Sydney Holden (Wheelersburg, OH) and
sophomore Chyna Chambers (Columbus, OH)

Michigan moves into 4th playoff spot
By Ralph D. Russo
The Associated Press

Michigan moved into the
fourth spot of the College Football Playoff rankings Tuesday
night, behind Alabama, Clemson and Notre Dame.
Georgia was next at ﬁve, followed by Oklahoma.
The playoff picture cleared
up after a weekend where
several contenders asserted
themselves. The top-four
teams in the ﬁnal rankings
Dec. 2 will play in the national semiﬁnals.
The Crimson Tide easily dispatched LSU from the top four,
beating the Tigers 29-0. LSU,
though, only dropped to No. 7

after its second loss, ahead of
Washington State, West Virginia and Ohio State — all with
only one loss.
Selection committee chairman Rob Mullens noted LSU’s
three victories against teams
the committee has ranked
this week (Mississippi State,
Auburn and Georgia).
“Their defense is extremely
strong,” said Mullens, the
Oregon athletic director. “Their
two losses come against No.
1 Alabama, on the road to
Florida.”
Unbeaten Notre Dame
moved up one spot to No. 3,
and Michigan jumped a spot
after a 42-7 victory against
Penn State.

Notre Dame fans believe
their team holds a trump card
against Michigan, with that
season-opening victory in
South Bend. That could buffer the Irish against one loss
in their ﬁnal three games,
but with no conference title

teams on their schedule such
as Virginia Tech and Stanford,
Notre Dame is not a lock if it
gets into a resume contest with
other one-loss teams. Even one

Kirksey,
Gaines on IR
BEREA, Ohio (AP) —
The Browns have some
major holes to ﬁll on
defense.
Cleveland lost starting linebacker Christian
Kirksey and cornerback
E.J. Gaines for the season
after placing both on
injured reserve.
One of the team’s captains, Kirksey hurt his
hamstring in the second
quarter of Sunday’s 37-21
loss to the Kansas City
Chiefs. Gaines sustained
his second concussion
in three weeks when he
took a knee to the helmet
while trying to make a
tackle in the ﬁrst quarter.
The losses will make
things even tougher on a
Cleveland defense already
stretched thin.
Linebacker Joe Schobert, a 2017 Pro Bowler,
missed the past three
games with a hamstring
injury, rookie cornerback
Denzel Ward hurt his
hip against the Chiefs,
and cornerback Terrance
Mitchell broke his arm
earlier this season.
Schobert returned to
practice Wednesday, as
did cornerback Damarious Randall, who was
kept out Sunday with
a nagging groin injury.
Ward and linebacker
Jamie Collins were limited to riding stationary
bikes during the portion
of practice open to media
members.
Kirksey made 43 tackles and two interceptions
in seven starts.
Gaines, who signed
with Cleveland as a free
agent in March, moved
into the starting lineup
after Mitchell went down.
He made one interception.
The Browns signed
defensive back Juston
Burris to the active roster
off the New York Jets’
practice squad.
Cleveland takes a fourgame losing streak into
Sunday’s game against
Atlanta.

CINCINNATI (AP) — The
Reds hired Turner Ward from
the Dodgers as their hitting
coach on Tuesday, their second
signiﬁcant addition under new
manager David Bell.
Cincinnati also hired Derek
Johnson from Milwaukee as its
pitching coach. The Dodgers
and Brewers played in the NL
Championship Series, with Los
Angeles advancing to the World
Series for the second straight
year and losing to Boston.
Ward spent the last three
seasons as the Dodgers’ hitting
coach. They set club records
for homers, extra-base hits and
slugging percentage each of the
last two seasons. The Dodgers
led the NL with 235 homers last
season.
Ward is from Alabama and
was attracted to the Reds’ job in
part because it would get him
closer to home.
“The vision of what they’re
trying to do, I can see it,” Ward
said on a conference call. “I’ve
been impressed with their

have dropped 98, 94, 94 and
95 games in the last four years,
their worst such slump since
the 1930s.
Bell knew Ward from their
playing days and spent hours on
Sunday talking to him about his

hitting philosophy. Ward played
12 seasons in the majors with
Cleveland, Toronto, Milwaukee,
Pittsburgh, Arizona and Philadelphia.
“When I found out this was
a possibility, I immediately got
excited about it,” Bell said. “To
Turner’s credit, he was willing
to spend basically the entire day
with me.”
The Reds ﬁred manager
Bryan Price after a 3-15 start
and decided not to retain interim manager Jim Riggleman.
Dick Williams, the president
of baseball operations, said the
Reds wanted to go outside the
organization in its next step of
rebuilding.
“We went into the offseason
committed to putting new leadership in place in the clubhouse,
and interested in seeing where
that would take us,” Williams
said. “We thought some new
voices in the clubhouse and a
variety of perspectives coming
in from other organizations
would be a good thing.”

Rizzo: Nats made offer
to Harper late in season
CARLSBAD, Calif. (AP) — The Washington Nationals made an offer to Bryce
Harper late in the season in an attempt to
reach a deal before he became a free agent.
Nationals general manager Mike Rizzo
disclosed the talks with agent Scott Boras
at the general managers’ meetings on Tuesday.
“We’ve had conversations and we utilized
our exclusivity to negotiate with him late
in the season through when he became eligible to sign with a team,” Rizzo said. “We
didn’t get anything done, but he’s a guy
that is near and dear to us and we are not
closing any doors.”
Harper, who turned 26 last month, is
expected to receive the largest contract
among the 164 free agents. He is a six-time
All-Star with 184 homers, 521 RBIs and a
.900 OPS.
“He’s shown the type of player he is and
now he’s a grizzled veteran,” Rizzo said.
“He has done a lot in the game already, and
he is just scratching the surface.”

PITTSBURGH (AP)
— Cam Newton spent a
portion of the summer
studying Ben Roethlisberger and working out
alongside Antonio Brown,
something the Carolina
Panthers quarterback did
out of a mix of curiosity
and respect.
Newton found himself
enamored of Roethlisberger’s footwork — “The
play is never over for
Big Ben” — and Brown’s
relentlessness.
“He’s literally like a
nocturnal beast,” Newton
said of Brown. “I thought
I was bad. … We had late
workouts. I’m talking like
10 p.m-.ish. It was like
our second or third one
of the day. Whenever he
feels the urge to work, he

works and I respect it.”
Newton will get an upclose look at Roethlisberger, Brown and the rest of
the Steelers (5-2-1) when
the Panthers (6-2) make
a rare trip to Pittsburgh.
Maybe it’s the workouts
with Brown. Maybe it’s
the rapport he’s developed with offensive
coordinator Norv Turner.
Maybe it’s the emergence
of running back Christian
McCaffrey. Whatever it
is, Newton is in the midst
of his ﬁnest season since
winning league MVP in
2015.
Maybe that’s why
Roethlisberger just
laughed when asked if
there’s any wisdom he
might pass along to Newton.

“I do not need to give
him advice,” Roethlisberger said. “He’s Superman.”
A Man of Steel who
could be a handful for
a resilient Pittsburgh
defense. The Steelers
were a hot mess during
the ﬁrst month of the
season but have ﬁgured
out things during their
four-game winning streak.
Pittsburgh is allowing
just 275.5 yards per game
over the last month.
That’s from a combination of the rapid cohesion
of a revamped secondary
and spending less time
on the ﬁeld thanks to an
offense starting to hog
the ball behind secondyear running back James
Conner.
