n. Y. Herald:-"No, Mr.. Blaine
will not be nominated at Chicago.
The republican leaders do not mean
this year to nominate a man for presi-
dent whose appearance at the head OF
their ticket would be the signal for the
formation Of a third party, and whose
canvass would consist of a lame defense
OF the exposure Of his whole queer and
adventurous political career. The re-
publican leaders have done some rash
and some foolish things, but they will
never agree to the nomination of the
'Tattooed Man of Puck's Presidential
Circus They will not nominate a
man whose appearance at the head of
the ticket would raise the price of
whitewash all over the country" All
The same the Blaine boom continues to
move right along. New purchase of
Whitewash will hardly be necessary.

such a large stock for Kellogg, Dorsey,

Upen motion of Mr.. Converse. OF
Ohio, Tuesday last, the enacting clause
OF the Morrison tariff bill was stricken
out, by a vote of 159 to l55. That, Of
course, killed the bill. Messrs. Randall
and Converse led the assault upon it.
In the minority in their own party
they called to their aid the almost solid
republican vote to plunge q knife into
the vitals OF the majority of their party.

avowed he had never seer snch obstin-

The present tariff yields a hundred
and fifty million dollars Il year more
revenue than is needed to administer
the government even under its present
extravagant management. The repub-
licans acknowledge that there should be
u reduction, but they say that the re-
publican party alone is competent to
make this reduction. Thirty-nine dem
ocrals in congress have virtually in
dorsed this impudent assumption. The
question now is, how many Of these
democrats are Endorsed by their COIL
s%tituents? We venture to say. not
more than five or six, and these live in
manufacturing districts where the own
ers OF mills are absolute masters of
their people. The country is against
protection. II the politicians would
only give it a chance to show it. it
would do SO In short order. But with
one party straight out for protection,
and the other undecided, how are they
to do SOP The democratic party cannot
afford, ever as a matter of expediency
to say no a word in regard to prin-
ciple, to mount the republican platform
on the most important economic ques-
ton before the country. Therefore the
Irresistible logic of events points to a
firm maintenance of the true demo
cratic position on the tarif-the words
penned by Samuel J. Tilden in the
platform OF 1876" We demand that
all custom house taxation shall be only
tor revenue" .
A friend l n conversation on the sen
sation Of the week asks us, "Well. sup
pose it is adopted at Chicago, will you
stand on the Ohio platform ?" Ger
tainly. Why not? The Ohio plat
form demands a reduction of the tariff
revenue to bring it within the necessi-
ties of the government honestly admin
istered. That is exactly our doctrine.
This is exactly the Morrison bill. That
is just what the people want. Its fea-
ture regarding the adjustment of the
tariff Cthat is necessary, to foster
American industry but not to build up |
monopolies, is a platitude that we care
very little for. II the tariff is laid !
primarily for revenue, and only enough
revenue to conduct the government,
without extravaganza, we will be
satisfied. as will hinc-ten;ils cf the |
party. But. a,,l make no
mistake here, the Ohio platform, in as
plain words as were ever written, de-
manded the passage of the Morrison
bill, as the best thing that could be got
at this session.
