RLAINR,S STRENGTH.

1t appears from late reports from Repub
lican conventions that Blaine is making
considerable progress towards the nemina
ton at Chicago. He has succeeded in car
rying large number of districts in Ohio,
but hardly enough to give him the control
of the State convention, which meets on
Wednesday. His hope is, however, that the
several Congressional delegations will be
permitted to select their own delegates, in
which event ne may be able to divide the
delegation with Mr.. Sherman. But if the
State convention should take it upon itself
to appoint all the delegates, both those at
large and those from the Congressional dis
tricts, Sherman will carry off the cake with
little trouble. The Republicans of Oregon
have also instructed in his favor, and he has
secured majority of the delegates to the
West Virginia convention.
Mr.. Blaine and his friends feel highly
hattered by the progress he has made during
the past ten days, and declare that the same
progress will be maintained up the date of
the convention, and that he Will be nomi-
mated on the first or second ballot. Itseems,
however, that they are reckoning without
their host. There are nineteen conventions
yet to be held. OF these the States of Ar
kansas, South Carolina, Mississippi, Ten
nessee, Maryland, New Jersey, Alabama,
Louisiana and Illinois are already assured to
support Grant They represent total vote
in the convention of 17s. These, added to
the 245 already instructed for Grant, will
give him 423 votes on the first ballot, clear
majority of SO of the full convention. In
the States of Wisconsin, California, Nevada
and Florida, Grant stands an equal chance
with his competitors, and it would not be
surprising to see them all carried in
his interest. Then the forty delegates cho-
son for Edmunds and the three for Wash
burne will undoubtedly cast their votes for
Grant in preference to Blaine, leaving the
Maine statesman far in the rear, with no
hope whatever of success.
But, say the Blaine adherents, the delega-
tons instructed for Grant will not obey the
dicts of the conventions which appointed
them. What assurance to that effect has
either Mr.. Blaine or his friendsP Simply

Indian Outrages in Colorado.

SAN BEBNoRDINo, Col, April 25.-The
prospectors have been compelled to leave the
new mines, recently discovered on the Col
orado river, by the Chimeheuva Indians. A
mail rider is reported killed by them. A
miner was killed by them some months ago
at Old Woman's springs and his body found
last week. His gnn and coat were seen in
the possession of one of the Chimeheuvas.
The San Bernordino cavalry has been order
ed out to aid the sheriff of that county to
arrest the murderers of the mail rider, and
sad trouble is expected, as the Indians have
burned their wigwams and taken to the
mountains. They are said to be well armed
and provisioned.

[Chicago Tribune, April "a.
Col. Taylor, the gentleman who has charge
of the Groesbeck boom, and who presided
at the convention held in that gentleman's
interest in New York, was caught yesterday
in the Palmer house by a Tribune reporter.
Mr.. Taylor is gentleman well suited to
shoulder Presidential boom, especially a
Democratic one, for it is usually hard load
to carry. Mr.. Taylor is gentleman well on
the ffties, of immense physique, and weighs
probably 230 pounds. He is at present a
resident of Leadville, and is building rail-
road to Fair Play, intending to complete it
to Georgetown, Col. Col. Taylor does not
look like politician, and when the Tribune
man approached him he said that he had
been drawn into this thing by the merest &C
cident.
'.But you have been running Mr.. Groes-
beck's campaign, have you not?" asked the
reporter.
81 have been South and West, partly in
his interest. I have favorable reports, but
they are from private sources that cannot
divulge."
"You do not think that Mr.. Groesbeck is
seriously candidate, do you? There is Mr..
Payne, of Cleveland; he is also in the field.
That would make two candidates in Ohio" "
"Mr. Groesbeck has stated, and it has
been published, that he would take the DEM
ocratic nomination if the people wanted him.
He is mighty nice man.
"But he is rather cold and aristocratic,"
said the reporter.
eyes, that may be, but each man has his
peculiarities, you know"
"Do you think that Mr.. Groesbeck will be
acceptable to Mr.. Tilden and his friends?"
"That seems to be the idea"
"How will he suit the Kelly faction in
New York?''
81 think he would heal the breach"
"But you do not regard Mr.. Groesbeck as
a candidate for the nomination before the
people?"
"He is somewhat in the nature of pas
sive candidate. He is a dark horse, think,
and will figure that way in the convention"
"Mr. William Groesbeck, of Cincinnati, is
wealthy" said the reporter.
EYES," replied Col. Taylor, che is worth
in the neighborhood of three millions"
"Then he can open a barI?"
eyes, more than Mr.. Tilden can, reckon.
He can open bar'l as big as Mr.. Tilden's,
and go one more. l think Mr.. Groesbeck is
the coming man."
Col. Taylor said no more, except that Mr..
Groesbeck would not fight for State delega-
tons. He was in training wholly as dark
horse

Mr.. EDMUNDs anticipates that resort to
arms may be necessary in case the Canadian
authorities refuse to compensate our fisher
men for the Fortune Bay outrages. The
old man is little too solicitous. We have
no doubt that full reparation will be made
as soon as the case is properly presented to
the Canadian authorities, but not until We
get rid of an administration that has neither
respect or backing at home or abroad-an
administration, in fact, that has not even
decent self-respect.

of the early day when all
our freight and passenger carrying was
by steamboats,. In the time to come when
st. Paul is city of 100000 inhabitants,
Saltwater and Red Wing cities of 10000
population, and Ohaska, Carver and st. Pc
ter are tens, three of kind, st. Paul will re-
ceive and ship, from and to these and other
river points, a variety of commodities for
the carriage of which, on such short lines,
the railways cannot compete with the cheap
water ways. We will need then for levee
room more space than is now required for
the terminal yards of all our railroads. Con-
sideration should also be had of the increas
ing need for more bridges and of the inn
mense cost of constructing bridges over the
river as at present located, and over the diff
ficult approaches to its present banks.
If the river should be removed to the
right side of the river pass between the
easily be made for all the bridges likely to
be needed, and for their being constructed
and maintained for a small proportion of
what bridges over the present river location
would cost. Ample levee room could be
made and retained. Larger space could be
made for railroad yards, and new and easy
opened The lands next to the Sixth ward
hills, which would have to be condemned for
the new river bed, are of little value as COM
pared to the probable value of the land which
would be made in place of the
present river bed. If the change was made
the grades of streets on either side and the
grades of our present railways could be
cheaply improved. The value of the Sixth
ward flats, for all or any purposes, would be
vastly increased. If, when the change of the
course of the river was made it should re-
main necessary to build levee to protect
the low grounds from occasional overfows,
the construction of the levee could be made
cheap auxiliary to the excavation of the
new channel.
But, without dwelling further upon the
present conditions or the other gains to be
made, it will be, for the present, enough
to add this: That, if competent en-
gineer, associated with a competent
commission of experts, is ordered to esti-
mate the costs, benefits and damages of
creating new channel for the river, as
above indicated, and of filling the present
effect that it would be good thing for the
city to undertake, having regard only to the
profit it would have in the selling value of
the new made land as compared with the
value of the land which would have to be
condemned for the new river bed. That is,
the city could make money directly by car
rying out the project, besides increasing all
its present facilities for transportation and
adding large percentage to the value of
private property on both sidee-es 4the river.

the unwarranted statements of few ire
sponsible newspapers that have been trying
to create the impression that the conventions
did not represent the sentiments of the party.
They have made a very poor showing of
facts to sustain their assertions, although
they have ransacked every nook and corner
of the country to obtain expressions of
opinion. The New York Tribune, the
chief Blaine organ of the country, after
over months work in that State, has been
able to find less than two thousand persons,
out of Republican voting population of
nearly half million, who are in favor of the
delegation from that State disobeying their
instructions, and an equally beggarly num-
Der from Pennsylvania. 1t is not at all
likely that, to please a few hundred voters,
the delegates from these States will offend
several hundred thousand of the members
of the party.
The Blaine men are grasping broken
reed by trusting to the violation of their
instructions by the Grant delegates. They
will not do so. If they did they would be
forever ostrscised from the councils of the
party.

BLAINE has been requested by the Repub-

voice and his vote will tell, rather than in
the chair, where he would have neither voice
nor vote in its deliberations.

been visiting his son, Russell

Sunfower river, near Jamestown, a
score or more miles thereabouts,
back of Friar's Point, in Coahoma
county, Mississippi. AS General
Hancock Is on the list of probable

Hancock is enjoying excellent
