From the Progressive Age.l
State Convention.

If any impression had prevailed that
the republicans of Maine would allow
their ardor to cool in consequence of their
disappointment. it must have been remov-
ed by the gathering at the convention, last
week, and the earnest spirit which charac-
terized that body. AS far as related to
the choice of candidate for Governor, or
any question of party policy. there was
nothing of particular Importance to call
the republicans together, and yet there
was large convention, and nearly all
the distant parts Of the State were well
represented. The spirit manifested was
admirable. There was general feeling
of confidence that the republican presi-
dental ticket would prevail, and there
were obvious signs Of lively, enthusiast
tic campaign.
The high and almost idolatrous estima-
ton in which our eminent statesman, Hon.
J. G. Blaine, is held by the republicans OF
Maine was manifested in the most marked
manner throughout the proceedings. His
name, whenever mentioned. excited the
most enthusiastic applause, followed fire.
quently by cheers. Could he have wit
messed the responses made by that large
gathering of earnest republicans. he could
but have felt that presidential honors were
vain and empty thingsin comparison with
the almost worshipful esteem in which he
is held by the entire republican party Of
this State No party leader in this State,
and few, if any, in any State ever enjoyed
the confidence and esteem of their party
so entirely as he does of the republican
party of Maine, to-day.
The denomination Of Gov. Conner by
reclamation. was fitting recognition OF
the fathfulness and ability with which he
has discharged the duties of that high Of
flee. No more fit or proper selections
than those of VIM. w. Thomas and Hon.
Nathan A. Farwell, for Electors al Large,
could have been made.
The campaign opens cheeringly. The
republicans all over the State are waking
up, and we predict lively canvass and
one of the largest republican majorities
that our State has given since the war.
