Bla,ue,s w.lk.over.

Amongst the callers at the National
Republican Committee rooms, New
York, yesterday, was William James
johnson, Of Madison, Indiana, who WAS
the Republican candidate for Congress
in his district two years ago, said con-
corning that State "There Is a harder
| fight by reason Of Mr.. Hendricks
nomination than would have been the
case II the nominee had been selected
from another State. But the Demo-
Gratis are by no means satisfied to have
him nominated for Vice Pres ident.
They wanted the first place on the
ticket for their State, and it IL difficult
to rally them for Vice Presidential
candidate. There IL friction yet be.
tween Mcdonald and Hendricks. The
Republicans are united and will mako
a gallant contest, which must win."
A letter from Akron. Ohio, to the
committee says "TLe loya Lhearted
Irishmen In this city are illed with
enthusiasm for Blaine aud Logan.
They are strongly opposed toClevcland,
and the abuse Of Blaine by the British
press only fxes them more firmly in
\ their attachment to Blaine"
A Cincinnati correspondent writes
There Is much dissatisfaction with the
Democratic ticket amopg the working
men, and in the Builders Exchange all
or the. Irish members have declared for
Blaine and Logan"
From Greenfield, Mas, cones this
word "You have no adequate idea of
the tremendous revolt against Cleveland

Democratic workingmen will repudiate
him at the polls."
A letter from Newark, Ohio, says /:
The Blaine and Logan Central Club
held its first meeting last night. 1t was
| addressed by three ex-Democrats. Fifty
old Democrats signed the roll. There
will be fully l00- Democrats In the city
| who will vote the Republican ticket,
and as many more In the county. I do
! not know Republican in Ohio who
will vote against Blaine, but from every
town and precinct we hear five, ten,
twenty or more Democrats coming over

date, who was nominated W ednesdAy,
will sweep the State. The Greenback
organs are enthusiastic over the result
OF the convention, and Judge Maxwell
will poll all the votes of that party and
the full Republican vote besides. The
q ,eenbackers are strongly opposed TO
| Wilson, the Democratic candidate for
Governor, and his defeat and the loss OF
the State to the Democrats seem certain.
| IN NEW YORK STATE.
| The Republican State Committee
rooms were visited yesterday by num-
Der OF prominent members of the party
from the interior Of the state. In
Allegauy," said Mr.. Cole, who had
just arrived from that county, the
accessions to the Republican ranks are
astonishingly great. Weilsviie, which
usually gives 100 Democratic majority,
will give Blaine at least 800 majority
over Cleveland"
| Captain Cole, of Steuben said
81 have been looking the ground
over carefully to see what foundation
there WAS for the reports Of Democratic
disaffection in Steuben county. l find
that the reports are not exaggerated.

Cleveland will lose many votes which
went 10 Hancock in 1880. Among the
letters received by the committee yes

the town committee of Trento Il.

is significant of the sentiment which is
rapidly spreading all over the land. 1t
