TALK AFrrR TIE ApJoURNMENr.
II WAS the rreyallmg sentiment Of the members
OF the committee, as gathered by conversation with
many Of them after tie All urumcnt, that General
Garfield and General Arthur should bc consulted
about thc choice of permanent officers, ana
they should agree upon the men. Governor
Foster woull probably have been chosen
a, chairman had he con- ented to accept tie nonl-
nation But he declined TO allow his nane to be
used on the ground tha., as Governor OF ONO ne
would be compelled IN part at least, to neglect the
duties Of thar position to attend 10 those OF
chairman OF the committee during The five months
of fne fannaicn. and he would necessarily be
subjected to great deal OF criticism on account OF
such neglect. WIlliqm Z. Chandler declined to ae-
cent any other position than that of a member of
the Executive Committee Marshall Jewell says
that BE does not want the position. The names ot
T. c. Patt and General Logan were taxed o. u
some groIps after The adj urnment.
Itis possible that some outside Of the present
| membership of the committee may be selected inc
member of the committee from his state IeslShhg
in favor of the person selected.
For secretary, among the names mentioned was
that of General George II. Sharpe, Speaker of the
Assembly Il was finally decided that it would b.
best to consult further with prominent members OF
the party before taking any action IN the matter.
CONFIDENT ALL ALONG THE LINE.

! brought together by tic meeting of the National
! Committee An enthusiastic confident spirit was
shown by all, but there were no signs OF the over
confidence that causes neglect Of organization ana
hard work. Brief interviews were obtained by
TRIBUNE reporters with many members of the Ma

WHAT MAINE REPUBLICANS ARE DOING.
William p. Frye, Of Maine in reply to an inquiry
concerning the prospects of the campaign III that
| State said
"The outlook is good and we propose to carry the
! State. The campaign will be began about August
l. with Senator Blaine in charge of the State Com
mittee and il Will be prosecuted vigorously until
election day | am surprised to have to say that the
attenpt to steal the State appears 10 have had no
effect on the opposition. Once in while you meet
a man who has a conscience but IN general the op-
ro,ition are not disturbed by the attempted theft
| Of the State
| .Wb9t has been the effect Of the nominations at
| Cincinnati !"
"Tbose nominations haven't had the slight
| slightest effect one way the other The Demo-
cratic party in Maine has practically disappeared,
! and what was left Of it has completely fused with
the Greenbackers i'll State politics"
| "What has been the effect on the Greenbackers
| of tbe nomination of a man Ike English T.
| Nothing on earth can affect Maine Green
hacker but the Greenback party has nothing to
| do with the Democratic National ticket"
:. Twill the Maine Greenbackers then support
the Greenback National nomneeSp
YES unless they arrange with the Democrats to
support the same electoral ticket, with the under
standing that If successful the two parties are 20 be
represented by the electors pro rata am inclined
70 believe they viii pursue this latter course. as
| thew know that with separate tickets IN The held
| they would BE he pes7. In choosing the electoral
ticket a plurality vote elects. But whatever the op-
,,osi,ion may do the Republican party proposes to
be successful in the coming election. and Will prose-
! cutc q very vigorous canvass 10 that eud.'
AwoRD FROM WILLIAM l. CHANDLER,

! A REASONABLE. CERTAINTY OF CONNECTICUT.
Marshall Jewell. OF Connecticut, said:
We shall carry our State for Garfield. The Re-
publicans aie thoroughly united. We have been
gaining for years, have carried the State Lesfsla-
ture for several years past, we elected our Cover

largest cities Of the State, Hartford anI New Ha-

thcra j. as reasonable certainty of carrying the
state for Garfield there Is of almost any
fr.nre event. Tie fact is, General Garfield
