The New York Herald has inter
viewed the Pennsylvania delegates
to Cincinnati, and finds them unex-
pectedly stubborn. They Will vote
for Hartranft-thati Is all. The Blaine
faction is understood to be well or
ganized. but somewhat helpless. ~
long as Hartranft is voted for.
The Boston Traveller says lift were
ever a question whether "Blaine was
the strongest candidate his party can
nominate, that question is Affirmative
ly answered now. There will be no
difficulty with such candidate as he
win be in arousing that enthusiasm
that insures success"
The Washington Chronicle answers
Proctor Knotl's challenge as to sup
pressing the Caldwell dispatch, by the
positive assertion that he did sup
press II, and accompanies the asser-
tion by the remark: There are sew
eral persons about the Office who are
not 10 be frightened by the threats
of bully"
The New Hork Herald is constant
in one thing. 1t believes and declares
that "New York stands like stone
wall behind Roscoe Conkling. The
empire State has nailed the Conkling
banner to the mast. Itremains TO be
seen whether so much devotion will
be rewarded with the victory it de-
serves"
The Bangor Whig says Of the
Blaine matter: 1.-THE crusade of cal
umny which has forced one of the
leading men of the country to make
public his most private a nd conidenti-
alcorrespondence has never before been
paralleled, and in meeting the emer-
gency Mr.. Blaine has given new
proof of his marvellous ability and
strength of character"
The Ohio line forms in excellent
order as the day of ontestapproaches.
Their one purpose is to stand by
Hayes. The Dayton Journal out
lines the programme: "Blaine's
friends will never desert him. All
these can unite on Hayes, and their
natural tendency will be to do so.
Therefore we say to the Ohio delega-
tion, stand firmly, resoluteIy, inflexi-
bly, for Hayes"
The Brooklyn Union says of Mr..
Blaine: "There Is no doubt that Mr..
Blaine is held deservedly in high
esteem by millions of American peo-
pie. They like his spirit, his grasp
of thought. his genuine Americanism
He has wrought well and nobly in
the trials and troubles of the past
fifteen years. He has given no un-
certain sound on the great questions
of the day. He has been an earnest
and faithful lover of loyalty, wise in
| its manifestations"
The Philadelphia Press believes
that Blaine has been subjected TO a
test that would have embarrassed
and perhaps have destroyed Henry
Clay, Andrew Jackson, or Abraham
Lincoln, and says: "We give it as
our judgment that, if the organiza.
tion which saved the country from
slavery, which gave the people the
best currency in the world, and which
covered the nation with blessings, Is
to be maintained by thorough Re-
publican administration, the leader
in this great work Is James Gillespie
Blaine,"
A correspondent of Indianapoli:
Journal believes that all the candi-
dates will withdraw after the third
ballot except Blaine, Bristow, and
Morton. The fourth ballot, then,
will stand, "Blaine BIT; Bristow, 1872
Morton 30s. Now comes speculation
Should Bristow's shadow wane W,
tl,en make Morton 376, and Blain,
374, thus giving Morton the nomina
tion by majority of 2. But SHOULD
Blaine lose ground thing atpresen
not among the impossibilities. ther
the contest will still. it seems, be con
fined to Morton and Bristow. Ther
our figures stand, for final vote, Nor
ton, 433; Bristow, 319.
The New York Tribune says |
Blaine was the strongest candidate

adds "This conspiracy shows wha
the Democracy doesn't want. I
doesn't want Blaine to be the Repub
