NEw YoRx. June TILT may perhaps
be stated a the judgment Of the coolest
politicians that Blains's prospects In the
convention are improved to-day . any
time since The hrst day that Mulligsn
was examined. but they are at best no
better than before that examination.
The movement Of yesterday will not
have ceased to operate BY the time the
convention meets. and will secure from
one class as much support ~ the lsttsrs
themselves will lose him from another.
That some OF the letters are fear
fully damaging. that they prove
dealing in subsidiary railroad stocks BY
the Speaker Of tho House. and that they
will meet Mr.. Blaine at every step II
nominated, and that they would defeat
or render uncertain q Republican sue
cess with him as the candidate 10 GER
tain. Those who doubted the expsdi-
ency Of his nomination . week ago are
equally II not more strongly In doubt to-
day.
A Times editorial speaks Of the late
ness at which Blaine publishsd bis Let
tors and says such tactics can only lead
to the conclusion that Blaims's defense,
In addition to being imperfect, Is also
disingenuous. Four letters Of the seven
contain evidence enough out Of Mr..
Blains's own mouth TO prove that he Is
mot a ht person to become the Prssi'
Dental candidate Of the Republican
party. and thai Ia after all the one point
In regard to Mr.. Blaine on which an i'm.
mediate decision is necessary. After .
review Of the contents Of the letters
the Times concludes: 1--WE take II a. an
insult to the common n OF the
people, to pretend that a candidate like
this can retain any such elements OF
strength rs would justify the serious
discussion OF his nomination. The
conscience has not been educated
to so little purpose during the last ten
years AZ to fail 10 condemn most m
the efforts which ars being
made to represent Blaine as still tho
strongest Republican candidate who will
be nominated at the Convention.
