CoNKLING's influence over Mrs. Kate
Chase Sprague cannot easily be estimat-

Wednesday evening last the dashing
Catherine gave a small dinner party to
Mr.. and Mrs. Conkling. There were
only Eve guests present besides the
Conklings. OF curse this is n presiden-
tial boom for Conkling. The public
will please take notice that Mr.. and
Mrs. Conkling have made up" and
also that Mrs. Sprague regards the hap

sigh for a breath of relief. There is no.
thing to equal it-but, hold; there is.
Now let Mrs. Conkling give n dinner
party to Mrs. and Mr.. Sprague, and we

The democrats in Name are COM
hitting the right folly, /" horrow a
phrase from Gen. Grant. III the right
time to suit Senator Blaine, if not the
entire republican party. The Blaine
boom has been visibly strengthened by
the events in the Pine Tree State. In
ii has been seen the matchless manage
ment of Blaine who snatched victory
from the jaws of defeat and placed the
republicans in full possession and con-
troll of the state house at Augusta, just
at a time when the ~fusionists consider
ed themselves invulnerably intrenched.
Hence the admiration for Blaine is ex-
tending over the entire country among
all men who admire courage, ability and
success. The wave of popular opinion
usually reacts in Washington, and that
public feeling. When, therefore, the
name Of Blaine of Maine is in every
body's mouth, and his nomination con-
coded by many who have heretofore
held their counsel, it seems that the
prospects of the Maine senator becom-
ing the candidate of the republicans are
growing brighter day by day.
Many of the leaders of the republic
can party have truly said that the
country demands positive men fors the
presidency; men who quickly grasp the
current of events and have the courage
and ability to control it. These leaders
p~erceiving this feeling amopg the peo-
pie, proceed to prescribe their man for
the situation. They admit that with
out the demand, as stated above, their
candidate would be positively ~unavail-
able. They realize, as all true leaders
must, that they cannot create public
opinion, and that successful leader
ship does not consist in creation, but in
direction. The feeling for a strong
candidate exists; they are therefore
endeavoring to direct the current of
events so that their choice, Gen. Grant,
shall take the tide as its flood and ride
to fortune.
1t follows by no means, that because
a strong man is needed and demanded,
Gen. Grant is the only supply. Nor
can his managers create the opinion
necessary to found that hypothesis.
The character Of the man desired is
found in Senator Blaine. who Is as bold
as Grant; more able and consummate
than Grant; more brilliant and success
full than Grant; more learned and intel
lectual than Grant; and in whom center
all the admirable qualities besides, that
have endeared the people to strong and
positive men. Without Blaine, posi-
bly, the demand for the man for the
situation must perforce look to Grant.
But with Blaine in the field and his
qualifications becoming every day more
apparent and admirable, and there being
no third term risk in his nomination,
he is for the stronger reason the best
possible candidate for the republican
party.

RLAINE

There is no question as to Blaine's
candidacy inspiring a most glorious
and brilliant campaign. 1t would be
aggressive in its character, and not de-
fensive, the same as if Grant were the
nominee. Gen. Grants military ex-
PLOTS can't be paraded before the coun-
try for a third campaign. They are
laid on the shelf of history. But the
many intellectual %sorties, skirmishes
and pitched battles in which Mr.. Blaine
gagged, are still fresh in the minds of the
people and are fascinating in recital.
Blaine's parliamentary record is as daz-
cling as the military record of General
Grant. 'Peace hath her victories no
less renowned than war;" and in that
sense Senator Blaine is in prestige, as a
conqueror and II hero, the peer of Gen.
Grant. Who that has read land who
has notl) of Blaine's daring and success
full exploits in that first democratic
house since the war, but feels rise with
in himself the enthusiasm of admira-
ton kindling fast into an almost ire
sistible desire to burrahp Just recall
the scenes in that house, with a hun
cry, rampant and ferocious majority
fresh from the jungles of the south; they
had tasted of the blood of power and
thirsted for more; they knew no re-
s%traint; their huge claws and hot breath
were felt on everything that was sacred
to that party which had recently driv.
en- them to defeat and saved the nation.
Then 1t was that Representative Blaine
by the most daring and brilliant ex-
plot in parliamentary history, under
took to stay the onslaught. He boldly
entered the arena and by a speech, such
as only a Blaine can inspire and deliv-
er, dashed the savage foe to fury, and
in their blinded rage they grossly ex-
ceeded all bounds of propriety. AT
the climax, when the host would have
rushed on the daring gladiator and
shredded him to bones, Mr.. Blaine
retired from the arena by Withdrawing
his motion, leaving the Infatuated
pack of opponents to snarl and quarrel
among themselves. They were astound-
ed and ~bewildered. Blaine's parliament
tary tactics were able and consummate
and completely passed their understand
ing. They had not previously known
that he could withdraw his motion, and
thus prevent an onslaught by them.
No wonder they were dumbfounGed
and demoralized. They could only re-
treat by promptly a%djourning that they
might rally their forces into something
like order.
We could cite other deeds of the
Maine statesman, bat limited space
forbids. We have given sufficient of
his career to prove our premise
that Senator Blaine is the peer of Gen.
Grant in all that makes a man and a
president. 1t being the case, then, that
the people want a strong man, and
Blaine is Of that character, and has
none of the objections that are urged
against Grant, it would appear to any
reasoning and understanding mind that
Senator Blaine should, and doubtless
will be, the republican candidate for
the presidency at the forthcoming cleo
ton in November.

Celery for Rheumatism

-IeleFl luT hueuHldNlsm
In celery there must be some special
virtue, if we only knew what it is. No
thing is made in vain, and the power
full smell and extraordinary taste of
celery are limitations from nature that
it had some special mission. Mr.. Ward,
Of Perriston Towers, Ross, writes that
rheumatism becomes impossible if cell
cry is freely used as an article bf diet.
Unfortunately he says cooked celery;
and it is the article in its raw state to
which we are all accustomed. "Cut
the celery he says, Into inch dice.
Boil in water untilsoft. n owater must be
poured away unless drunk by the invalid.
Then take new milk, slightly thicken
with -four and flavor with nutmeg;
warm with the celery in the saucepan;
serve with diamonds of toasted bread

stPermit me to say he adds, THAT
cold or damp never produces rheumat-
ism, but simply develops it. The acid
blood is the primary u and the sus-
tanning power Of evil. While the blood
is alkaline there IA be no rheumatism
and equally no govt" And Mr.. Ward
proceeds to say: "Let me fearlessly say
that rheumatism is impossible on such
diet, and yet III medical men allowed
rheumatism to kill in 1876 3,640 human
beings-every case unnecessary as a
dirty face. Worse still; of the 30,4S1
registered as dying from heart-disease,
ut least two thirds OF these are due

ment plays here on next Monday night these
musical contortionists will smash up their nd
dies and solemnly vow never again to attempt
to draw harmony from cat gut. Taking these
