Democratic Probabilities, Possibilities and
Crudities-Who VIII Be
the Candidates?

WASHINGTON, ID. c., June l0.-What
sort OF campaign shall 1t beI is now
the question which agitates the breast
Of the average Republican politician.
OF course the nomination Of Blaine Is
looked upon as meaning an aggressive
campaign, and it is probable that this
idea will be carried out in the months
which ensue between this and November.
Preparations have already been begun
Tor the work. The campaign fund, it
is understood, will be large, and
Its use will not be confined 30
the doubtful States of New York and
Indiana and Ohio, but will be ex-
pended in the South. Interviews with
politicians from Southern States show
that the ticket, Blaine and Logan, is the
most popular one that could have been
nominated for the South. Such men as
Randolph Tucker, of Virginia, Congress
man Skinner OF North Carolina, Barbour,
OF Virginia, and others say frankly that if
any man or ticket can carry the States
Of Virginia. North Carolina,
and perhaps Florida and Louis
lana, it is that which was nom
mated at Chicago last Friday With this
idea it is understood that attention will
be turned toward the South, and that the
doubt which attaches to the possibility Of
carrying New York will be met with an
e1fOrtto carry Southern States which will
offset the loss of the New York vote, if it
should be lost The general impression
is that with Blaine upon the ticket the
Pacific Coast States will certainly be Re-
publican, as his record on the China
man Is quite satisfactory to your Pacific
Coaster, and, no matter what the name
)t the Democratic candidate may be,
The impression is that Blaine will carry
hose States. The Ohio Democrats who
say there is chance for their party do
Aot say it with an enthusiasm which
eadS to the belief that there really is any
hope for the Democracy in Ohio. On the
other hand, the Republicans who say that
Blaine and Logan can carry Indiana, evil
1ently have some doubts Of their own
statements. The general impression
Is that a strong effort will be
made to carry Virginia. Blaine is entirely
satisfactory to the straigntout vote, and
| Malone, who never has ialtered when it
| came to real work in an attempt to give
| Virginia to the Republicans, will proba-
| bly, come into line and whip in his men
| for Blaine, and if the straightouts anC
| Malone elements can be united, as it i,
believed they will be, the fight in thC
State will be very close. The Democrat.
| say that the Republican campaign funC
| will be larger this year than ever before
| Corporations, they say, will come to the
support of Blaine and will put up cash
for him. That he is a corporation man
Is generally charged on the Democratic
side and quietly admitted by many Re-
publicanS. If this be true it is argued
there will be no
LACK OF CAMPAIGN FUNDS.
The Republican nomination having been
disposed of, attention now turns to the
Democratic Convention. 1t is hard to
force the belief that Mr., TiIden will not
be the candidate. Statement after state
mcnt is made to the effect that he has
written letter OF declination, that he
has stated to his friends that he will de.
cline, and that he will not accept under
any circumstances, yet a large proportion
of politicians say that he will probably
be the nominee. The rank and file
of the party demand him as their
standard-bearer and information comes
from all parts of the country that the
people demand Tilden. Among those
who do not favor Tilden and who hope
ior his declination the most popular man
appears to be Bayard. In fact there is
quite a Bayard boom Just now. Bayard
and Mcdonald is a ticket a good deal
talked OF, and seems more likely to be an
acceptable one if Tilden is actually off of
the track than any other that is now
thought of. 4 rather curious development
of the past few days has been the atti-
Lude of the Post toward the Blaine nomi-
nation. The Post has been recog-
lized all along as Blaine paper, and
advised the Republican party to nomin-
ate him. An hour after the nomina-
ton the junior Mr.. lIutchins, now
editor and manager OF the Post, was
passing up Pennsylvania avenue past
the Washington Office of this paper,
and when he was asked by your corre-
epbuN4CuI SOlHC HuCStlOu lt SAl ulhS N'lS
nomination said: "It is the best that
could have been made for we Demo-
Gratis. 1t assures our success, Why
the Presidency is as surely ours now
as November and the election will come.
| do not think there is particle of doubt
as to the election of our man, whoever
he may be. Of course, in saying that |
expect that the convention will make a
wise and judicous nomination, Imean
to say that any one of half dozen or
dozen men in our party can carry the
election, and carry it easy. 1t is just as
easy as to walk across this sidewalk and
pick it up in the gutter. Blaine Is the
weakest man that possibly could have
been nominated by the Republicans, and
all we have to do now is to reach out our
hands and take the prize"
