POLITICAL POINTS.
MIR. eoULp's MAN.


Chicago lKaii-Mr Ingalls, 'shew into pas
sionn because speech delivered by him was re-
ferred to as ''characteristic'' by southern
statesman. If somebody reminded the distin-
guished Kansan that he holds his seat by pur-
chase and is Jay Goulds lobbyist, he would
doubtless fly into several passions. And yet
these charges are bruited in his own state.
LIGHT WEIGHT.
Troy TsmeS-Mr Roosevelt is one Of those
mushroom statesmen who come to maturity
quickly and die early and good. twas said of
him at Chicago that tied to a spool of cotton
thread and dropped from fifth story window his
weight would fail to straighten out the thread.
SING HEY, THE MERRY BoLTERs.
Boston Herd9d.-The machine grinders can
sneer at Massachusetts, but she is the only state
that has Bunker Hill day, or a Concord or Lex
ington day, or Faneuil Hall, or an organized
Blame bolt
SMALL CHANCE FOR JOY.
Detroit Free PreSS.-There will be more Re-
publican enthusiasm over Democratic failure
to nominate Cleveland than there has been over
the nomination of Blaine
DISMAL READING.
Boston TrGascript-The friends of Mr.. Blaine
will find the long list of names appended to the
protest against Blaine's nomination rather dismal
reading. No more influential Republican mani
festo has been published for many years. The
attempt to jeer it out of sight with any stock
epithets about the signatures will not fill up the
chasm which the Presidential nomination has
made in the Republican ranks of Massachusetts,.
SMELLING TO HEAVEN.
Illinois State Register. Whoever is nominated
by the convention which meets in Chicago on the
Sth of July will be elected by the people. Blaine
and Logan are a stencil in the nostrils of hun
dreds of thousands of Republicans who will vote
for any good man the Democrats may select.
INTERESTING AND SIGNIFICANT.
Chicago Inter- Oeean.-The attitude of Massa-
not deeply significant feature of the present
political situation.
SUBSTITUTE NO. 2.
Lincoln (Neb) Democrat. In war the name
of Blane's substitute was Bradford; in peace
the name of his substitute is Logan.
THE WALL STREET CANDIDATE.
Detroit Free Press.-A Blaine newspaper says
that Blaine is the idol of the millions. You bet
he is-Gould, Sage, Field and the rest Of them,
all idolize him.
BURGLARS TOOLS.
Merchant Tra0eler.-If the Republican party
can't get into the White House with s'Jimmie''
and jack it will be, indeed, time that it re-
tire from politics.
WANTS FIGHT.
Chicago Tin1eS.-A set-to between Gail Hamil-
ton and the star-eyed Goddess of Reform would
be the most interesting event in the annals of
pugiism.
STRAWS SHOW.
n. Y d-Commissioner of Pensions W.
W. Dudley left Washington for Indianapolis with
the aVowed intention of getting the Republican
nomination for the governorship of Indiana. He
knows very well he will not hold office in Wash
ington next year.
REPUBLICAN PROFANITY.
Boston TrGn8cript-Judge Foraker said, at
ratification meeting in Cincinnati, that ''you
might just as well have tried to dam up the
waters of the Mississippi river as to have pre-
vented the nomination Of James G. Blaine. "
But the people are not damming the waters of
the Mississippi just now SO much as the nomin-
alton of j. G. b.
