PRESIDENTIAL sPEouLAr1oNs

aine and Bristow-Morton's Meanness.
Washington, April 5.-Presidential |
speculation continues active. The
most significant current indication In
the political world is the surprising
weakness of Morton in the South,
where his strength was especially
supposed to lie. Some of Morton's
friends attribute this to administra-
tion work for Conkling, hence their
antagonism to the latter. The opin-
ion is among active earnest and
thoughtful politicians that Blaine is
constantly and surely gaining in
strength more than any other man
who runs squarely with Republicans
as distinguished from the admi,istra-
tion machine. Whether he grows
rapidly enough TO secure the nomina-
tion remains to be proved, but his
stock continues to rise now. Conkling
too develops improved strength, but
nothing promising TO overcome the
widespread conviction among cool
headed men that if Ccnkling be nom-
mated, nothing but the clearest Dem
ocratic folly could save the Republi-
cans from defeat at the polls.
Bristow continues to be talked of
more and more among the PEOPLE,
and Blaine and Bristow begin to be
named rs the ticket among party
workers. The Efforts to damage Blaine
by imputations of corruption have
missed fire. Nobody here doubts his
simple, fiat denial, especially as all
the parties to the pretended transac-
ton in Arkansas, including l.. p.
Morton & Co., the bankers through
whom it was said to have been made,
sustain the denial. Much feeling is
excited by the conviction that these
imputatious originated in Morton's
camp.

1t seems to me that we should gather upon
that ground, made sacred by the blood of
thoee who did bare their breasts to the red

make the hills ro'ccho our shouts az they
