WASHINGTON, June 8.-Delegates and visitors
to the Chicago convention are beginning to flock
back to the capital. Every incoming train
brings crowds of them, and tomorrow the House
will have quorum. Politicians have had an
opportunity to sleep two nights since Blaine and
Logan were placed in nomination, and tonight
they have got over the excitement of the first
moment and are prepared to look over the
ground carefully. In the hotel lobbies, where
politicians congregate, the ticket is still the only
subject of general conversation. Of course
there are various views as to its
strength, but among all the conviction
is gaining ground that the Democrats will be
very foolish if they think for moment that they
have walkover for whomsoever they may
nominate. Tonight the reports from all sections
indicate that the utmost enthusiasm prevails for
Blaine and Logan especially in the West and
Northwest while from Virginia come most en-
eouraging reports upon the outlook. An old
gentleman from Loudon county, who was a dele

that the campaign in that State
will be entered into with spirit and vim. This
gentleman believes It'll yet possible to redeem
from the Bourbons the ground lost through the
Malone alliance There are enough Republic
ans in Virginia, he claims, to insure Republic
an success, and no man is better qualified to
draw out the solid Republican vote than James
G. Blaine. A gentleman thoroughly posted in
politics Of North Carolina said tonight that
with DIR. Tyer York as the gubernatorial candi-
date and Blaine at the head of the national
ticket there is better chance for Repub-
lican success in North Carolina than
has existed since the days of reconstruc-
ton. West Virginia Republicans here speak
with the utmost enthusiasm of Republican pros
poets; there are some here, however, who pro-
fess to believe that the opposition to Blaine is so
strong as to endanger Republican success there.
Massachusetts Republicans say that, while there
is at present keen feeling of disappointment
over the nomination, still Blaine will have no
difficulty in carrying the State by a good ma

At Tuscola, Ill.

Special to the indianapolis journal
TUscoLA, ILL.,, June THE nominations at
Chicago, yesterday, is the all-absorbing topic of
conversation on the streets to-day Republicans
meet each other with the question: What do
you think of Blaine and Logan?' The reply is al
ways an enthusiastic Endorsement of the
strength and popularity Of both candidates The
sentiment that never before has such a strong
ticket been placed before the people is universal
Arrangements have been made for holding a
ratification meeting on Monday night, at which
a Blaine and Logan club will be organized The
campaign here will be brilliant and aggressive.
Disappointment was felt at first that Logan
should accept the second place, as this might in
lure his chances for the first place hereafter.
Old gray-headed men are to be seen taking part
in the demonstrations with the exuberence of
boys and the young men are simply wild with
delight. In reference to Blaine individually,
the expression, 1--WE now have what we should
have received eight years ago" is quite common.

Mr. Blaine is the first presidential candidate
from New England since the days of Frank
Pierce. In 1852 the East had two men in the
field, both citizens of New Hampshire-Pieree
and John P. Hale The latter was run by the
Free Sellers. He carried no States and re-
ceived only 100000 votes. against 1885, 900 for
Gen. Scott and l,601, 600 for Mr.. Pierce. But

of the people who in the south end of the hall
had grown tired of seeing men gestculating on
the platform without being able to hear a word
that was said, had gone home in disgust. The
ladies in the boxes and galleries began TO look
weary, and the few who had had the foresight to
bring a lunch began to discuss it. without regard
for appearances. A lady with ham sandwich
in one hand and bottle of coffee in the other
was not at ali conspicuous on that occasion. A

1t is part Of the secret history of the conven-
ton that Mr.. HendeEson's name was used in
certain conferences and in view of several con-
tingencies as vice-presidential possibility
The Blaine managers, some Of them, were ex-
ceedingly anxious to bind the independent ele-
ment to the support of the ticket They fell in
very readily with the selection Of Mr. Hender-
son for permanent chairman. 1t is by no means
certain that they did not inspire it. After Sc
curing their leaders nomination the next thing
was to select the man for second place who
would bring them the most strength. Of course,
Logan was first in mind because his name ap-
pealed to the soldier element 1t was by no
means certain that he would accept, for although
there was very thorough understanding be
tween those nearest Blaine and Logan as to
their mutual interests, it did not go to
the extent of binding the Iii
nois Senator to take the second
place Had Logan declined, as many Blaine
men feared he would until after Cullom's urgent
telegram was answered then Gresham, Lincoln
and Henderson would have received serious at
