cathoiic Ezaminer.
About the meanest specimen Of campaigning
that has yet been presented is the attack on Mr..
Blaine-or, rather upon his wife-by the Indii-
annapolis Sentinel Even were the charges
brought against himswell grounded, there could
be no excuse for bringing them forward, since
Ahe principal sufferer is not Mr.. Blaine himself,
hut the woman who is his wife and the mother
Of his children "a woman against whom not a
word Of Teproaeh has before been spoken.
In defense Of the honor of his wife Mr. Blaine
has instituted q suit for libel against the paper
responsible for the attack and it will be the
wish of every man who respects the fair fame
of woman that swift punishment may be dealt
out to the slapderer
The Democratic managers will find that war
ring upon women is not calculated to assist their
candidate The American people are likely to
form their own opinion of such methods of car
rying on political campaign, and doubtless too
they will record that opinion at the polls, il it
becomes necessary.
There is sufficient material within reach with
which to attack Mr.. Blaine, and there is no
necessity whatever TO assaif the good name Of
his wif0, or OF any other member Of his family
Such assaults, IN addition to being disgrace
full and contemptiblein the extreme, are calcu-
lated to help rather than to iniure the one at
whom they are directed
The Democratic managers, in the best in
teRests Of their candidate, should call eff their
dogs.

dacy, but | simply say that Blaine and Logan
are certain to carry New York by a large ma
jority In regard to Butler the opinion is gen
tral that his canvass will draw much more from
Cleveland than from Blaine. / met however,
two or three Republicans who held the contrary
view. The fact is, Blaine is growing nearer to
the people every day. His brill
liant qualities, his vigor, and the
hope he inspires in his followers all tend to
make him stronger, Each day the masses of his
party are better satisfied that he is the candi-
date With Cleveland it is Just the reverse.
There is nothing to him, He is barren in intel
lect. barren In craftsmanship, and wanting in re-
euperative power While he brings no issue
with him, he lacks the ingenuity to inveLt one
he brings no encouragement to his party, and

ready fact.
Another thing which is noticeable is, how
completely the fraud issue of 1876 has dropped
out of the canvass, 1t was intended to revive
that cry by the nomination of Gov Hendricks,
hut 1t has fallen fat Without JIlden that issue
is dead.

all know that Illinois is Republican; that it is

there is of it.
Being asked what he thought the prohibition
Fote would amount to- Governor 0giesby said:
1T is hard to estimate its strength. There are
many sincere men behind the movement deeply
in earnest, and who mean to go through with it.
Still, when the campaign gets to be red hot, j
think the bulk of the Prohibitionists win become
interested in the result and will gradually drop
back into the old parties. OF course some will
stick, and how large their vote viii be is mere
