There will be an organized Democratic

1t will be confined to no single state,

the fact that the bodies Of those who died

DEEP down under the Republican cur
rent of hurrah that seems to be sweeping
Blaine to success is cold stream Of dis
ooutent. And it grows larger day by day.
The monster independent meeting in
Boston last evening showed that 1000
prominent Republicans in Massachusetts,
could not reconcile it to their couscences
to support Blaine. So great was their
distrust Of this dangerous man, that they
agreed to support the Democratic nominee
by word and pou, if necessary, to insure
Bairo's defeat. Men If this kind, as the
New York Times says, distrust those
who have grown ricn by turning to their
own account the corrupt and corrupting
influences that prcvade commercial and
political life, and who have advanced
through devious ways. Their
minds are not carried away by the reck
less dash aud uus3rupulous olaptrap of
those who have made reputation for
smartness." 1t is fitting that the Repub.
lican party should go down 10 defeat with
Blaine, for he represents all of the worst
features Of its worst period.
