National Republican., 1876-06-08
LET THE BEST MAN WIN.

Mr.. Blaine's recent magnificent defense
of himself by charging boldly upon the
enemy has challenged the admiration and
applause of true Republicans everywhere.
His eloquent defense of the sacred charac-
ter Of private correspondence, and its i'm
munity from search, seizure or publication
for political effect, cannot fail to illicit COM
mendation from all sorts and conditions of
men. We, in common with all good citi-
zens, join in the full need of praise of Mr..
Blaine for these distinguished services to
party and country. Neither are we one
whit behind the foremost in praise of the
brilliant talents of the Maine statesman as
an executive and administrative officer.
He is endowed with genius of high order;
with a tact AID readiness to adapt his
policy to circumstances which are rarely
excelled; with an eloqueuce, born of
earnestness and magnetism, which captures
the senses before it conVinces the judg-
ment and with a pleasing address and
courtly manner that render him accessible
to all classes of people. All these are
elements of popularity in this country and
age that are not to be lightly esteemed in
Presidential candidate.
Perhaps in most of the qualities above
noticed Mr.. Blaine excels all "known"
competitors, while there may be other re-
quisites and qualifications in which he is
deficient, and in the enjoyment and exer-
else Of which he is surpassed by others.

MIR. Blaine to say so, for perfection in all
respects may not be looked for in all of
our public men, even in the present days
of progress. Neither is it to be expected
that we can all agree in our first choice of
o standard bearer. The Republican party
abounds ia men "f superior talents as
political leaders. is rich in materi4l for
Presidential candidates. And herein lies
one great difficulty. Almost every grelt
State has its favorite candidate for the
National Republican., 1876-06-08
